Tactile! If there were a proverbial nail around it would now sink itself into the nearest piece of wood for being hit so eloquently on its head.

I have seen people using "naive maturity" before, but I like tactile more.

Your comment about her "being an instrument" is interesting because she has commented on it herself (I am going to adlib now). She has said that she is happiest when writing and being in the studio. Then she is "god" with absolute control over "Creation" (something like this, we know how she likes to word herself). While in contrast - she feels like a "medium" or a "channel" on stage - pulling down something outside herself and vocalising it so it can be heard.

I find this interesting. Because one would think that the typical singer/songwriter is pulling the music and words out from "somewhere" and "singing it out loud from inside herself" when performing. But somehow Aurora is switching it around. She is Goddess when making the song - and a medium when performing her own song.

I also want to add - she is doing something very few female artists do in case you wish to break down more of her: She is a female singer that prefer a male choir as her backdrop. The entire Nidaros consert. The HAIK concert. Even in her studio recordings - she has this boomy male "hum" behind her and not the female trio. She is basically reversing the production-space of her childhood hero (Leonard Cohen) that is known for his boomy almost monotonous voice with some of the most talented female backing vocals known to man-kind to phrase out the composition.

She does not stop there - on top of the beautiful "hum" of a male choir, she is harmonizing with another female voice (usually Silja Sol) so she is doubling up on the harmonics - the men booming harmonically - supporting two "sirens" harmonizing on top of it. When one becomes aware of it, one starts scratching own head while asking why do not more great female vocalists explore this "reverse Leonard Choen" soundscape (I guess one can explain it by being half-aware of the fact that being male backing vocals to a female star in 1950 maybe was upsetting some ideas of gender roles?)

If people are really nerds - allow me to point to ABBA and their unique and astonishing qualities in both songwriting and performance. Agnetha and Anni-Frid did crazy harmonics taking care of the lead melody. But think about it - Björn and Benny can often be heard subtly in the background. Sometimes simply singing a deep D (what a lovely note) for the girls to vocally dance around in higher octaves.

It is such a basic idea - rooting the amazing bird-elegance and technique "on top" not only by deep drums and bass - but also rooting it to deep booming vocal "instrumentation". And yet hardly anyone does it.

It may work because Aurora has such a commanding voice. There is no male choir on the planet that can rip our ear-attention from her. One can produce the hell out of her backing without being afraid of her drowning in it. Her vocals are that interesting. And when it works - this reverse Choen is "otherworldly". Fearless, just like Choen was when letting the "backing girls" go amazing on top of his voice - trusting himself enough to know his words and presence would not sound like someone with a limited vocal range hiding something boring.

I am reasonably sure that I will never be the same after hearing this. Hans

[astral]

She is a divine being, visiting earth to upgrade

[stephenbarlow]

Aurora has actually said, when she sings, it's like the music just goes in from through top of her head, and flows through her.

[panchiolarranaga]

I found Aurora five years ago, and I'm a 68 year old musician seen quite a lot, both good and lots of not so she instantly caught she is a is different and I feel so grateful she came to my Enjoyed your reflections very much txs for that...hope to see some more Aurora soon Stay safe

[navrozelalkaka]

Gifted beyond words. Enormous gratitude .

[Kimberlyannkent]

I see you stoped reacting to Aurora after 2 songs a year ago. Although you haven’t reacted … I hope you continued to explore her music after because she is a phenomenon I wouldn’t want you to miss enjoying as I have

[farn]

I always say that she's a musical spirit hiding in our dimension, one day she'll return home and we'll be a little worse for her leaving... Such an ancient and pure voice. She breaks my 45 year old metalhead heart.

[ispbrotherwolf]

Have you noticed how Aurora draws you into her world? A world that shows us how this world should be!? If you have, then you understand why I call her our Queen of the North.

[paulkossak]

She is a kinetic performer both in voice and body.

[johnytwo]

I continue to appreciate this song more and more.

[kevinbrown]

This should blow your mind. It did mine. Utterly beautiful.

[dproukous]

Aurora has redesigned the musical art world & created her own category.Luv from NYC

[byzinski]

An ethereal hauntingly stunning beautiful female singing voice not from earth.... bringing tears to a stoic unemotional Vietnam Vet... .. A Scandinavian 🇳🇴 ‘goddess’

[davorinjurisic]

Her voice is like light, hovering, flickering and spreading with ether in all directions .

[elias]

Her voice is the most beautiful instrument I've ever heard 🙌🏻

[chinbeard]

Fantastic analysis. Definitely the best I've seen. Your comments about her as an instrument being played and her childlike persona that carries so much gravitas and authority really nailed it. I'm a 46 year old guy that's been a musician playing shows regularly for the last 15 years. I've been in that flow state many times but Aurora seems to inhabit it like it's her natural environment. I've never seen anything like her. If there is actually magic in the world she embodies it.

[whitemask]

I think this is the most beautiful description I’ve ever heard, “something is using her as an instrument” Aurora is not human! Her energy is healing, her voice is beautiful, her vocals, her harmonizing. Its palpable you can feel it

[chadperkins]

I wonder if there is a conductor, but she is almost her own conductor with her hand movements. The whole thing is so precise. Such a beautiful song even in the raw.

[ukladyfan]

Disappointed not to see more Aurora such a talented young woman
