Yes, this was last-minute. This is on the radio show P3 LIVE where the artist come for an interview and get to sing one of their own songs and then the twist, they have to perform a cove, r but they only get to know the song when they arrive at the studio, so there is a short time frame for them to make an arrangement and learn the song. Aurora has done several songs on this show like this; God is a Woman, Wrecking Ball and the Christmas song Det hev ei rose sprunge ("Es ist ein Ros entsprungen" (literally "A rose has sprung up") )

She pulls on you like the moon pulls on the tide. Can't take my eyes off her.

[vincentcarrot]

7:40 exactly that. She travels between worlds.

Why is she not enormously famous? She is so amazing, just true artist, give me the feels. Am always so enthralled with any song she does, she is a real life fairy. 👍🍀

[ReiYWillNeverForgetPixy]

Every song that aurora touch become Magical

[timgrodesky]

Absolutely stunning! She also performs from this same set her own rarely performed song Animal Soul which is a MUST MUST see!

[X_chng]

Great reaction 😊👍The notes in front of her are probably lyrics. This video is from a Norwegian radiostation. And this show gives their guests a song to do a cover of. They only get an hour or so to prepare. It was the same on her "god is a woman" cover.

[notvochkin]

Re the lyrics, she did change them, the rappy sections are much shorter and slightly different, and the outro part "You're the fires of the future..." was another verse starting with "Last things last..." and the lyrics somewhat changed there as well. I like Aurora's version much better and part of it is that her style makes the lyrics more intimate, more like she is acknowledging pain as part of her, whereas the Imagine Dragons seems more raging against it.

[RunarNyrud]

This is on my "night" playlist.... The playlist of preformances that makes me forget everything about the days challenges, and just listen to the I just love Her

[kennethviar]

Masterpiece ! She made me like the song better actually .

[fredk]

Hi Nina, it is most likely that the notes on her keybord are indeed last minute arrangements. It's a recurring item on a radio-show on Norwegian NRK-P3 radio, that an artist who is invited to the show, is given a randomly picked song and is asked to arrange a cover of that song in less than an hour. AURORA's covers of "God Is A Woman" by Ariana Grande, "Rasputin" by Boney M, "Wrecking Ball" by Miley Cyrus and this song "Believer", are all examples of these "Less than one hour" cover songs.

[maxsteiner]

Welcome back lovely Nina. This is one of my favorite performance ever. Love from Norway.

[hakanandersson]

Hello dear!!
For me this is my favourite cover from her. Her tone and phrasing is masterclass, Thank you Nina!!

[HAL-cmib]

Other great covers by her are:

[breathezen]

She also has a music video of her cover of Simon and Garfunkel's classic :Scarborough Fair", which sounds perfect with her traditional Scandinavian roots blended in - a medieval flair!

[TheVirtualWatcher]

Nina, you've got to see her "Piano Sessions" version of 'A Temporary High'. You love how she covers other people's songs, well she does it with her own songs too 😲

[usaf]

Have you seen this video "Aurora - Conqueror (Live From The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon)"? I'd like to see your reaction.

[matthewmills]

Another great one to react to would be To be loved, by Askjell, which features Aurora as a singer. its such a unique and musically interesting song, with lots of emotion. id love for you to listen to it. its a piece of art.

[kumarimanjula]

You are the best AURORA song reactor ever.
World is waiting for our warrior another song reaction.
