Aurora's Afterparty Livestream she had on her RU-vid channel exclusively for RU-vid Premium users, right after the release of her new song "Cure for me".
Oh man.....I need that in my life. Like....genuinely deeply _need_ that in my life. There's so many facets to her personality....and it's nice when she has longer conversations, because more of those sides come out. She super funny, very dry and witty and sarcastic. And she's whimsical and all, but she can also be quite serious and wise. I think if I had to sum her personality up I would say she's the opposite of oblivious_ if that makes sense. She's very very present and aware. And people like that tend to be very interesting to listen to on something like a podcast. idk....I'm rambling, only because I love your idea so much.
She has an idea. That's why she keeps doing it, even though it's against her nature as someone who is intensely shy. You are seeing AURORA, the performer, rather than Aurora Aksnes the quiet girl who goes home to her apartment, breathes a sigh of relief, and spends hours and days and weeks quietly painting or writing poems / songs in her little notebooks, recharging from being AURORA. In a way AURORA is as much a construct as Lady Gaga (Stefani Germanotta's alter ego), but one that is much more... open? As in, Lady Gaga is a total constructed persona while AURORA is Aurora Aksnes opening her soul in a way not natural for her but it is her purpose?
Cure for me is so meaningful to me, because it sums up a process that I have been going through the past years. I am autistic and as a child I had constant therapies and I was always practicing something like saying no, talking to strangers, etc. I always thought I was going to therapy, because there was something wrong with me I needed to be cured of. I went through a lot of bullying and this mindest made me think it was my fault. But so much has changed. I accept myself now, and respect my boundaries. Therapy is now a place where I can learn to communicate these boundaries. I have never been healthier in my life.
i'm so happy for you my love, and I hope you stay on that wagon of self love and respect. you are everybit worth the time and apprecion of others and I hope you find your people to make you happy and feel loved as you ought to be :)
That's so beautiful 💖 I just wanted to say thank you for existing. I believe those who are different (I know we are all different but I mean a kind of different that makes it a little difficult to fit in this ruthless system/society) are a gift to humanity, our differences enrich this world and inspire others to expand their souls, accept themselves, love themselves, be better and reach new levels of love and peace💫💫💫
@@emillyazevedo1669 she meant aunt yes i think.. and that is the point and at the same time the Auroraishness (aurora - ish - ness...this is a word now) of it. 🧚♀️
This is like the best talk show that doesn't exist. I love everything about this.... Aurora has such a dry sense of humor...people miss that about her sometimes. And it was really cool to have this be so intimate...with her and her sister just vibing off each other. Aurora is such a real human being. Hyper creative and motivated and going for her dreams to the nth degree....but also a humble real honest chill human being. Her existence alone is inspiring. Her artistry on top of that is magic.
Beautifully explained.. AuRoRA is uniquely expressive and her art is just wonderful. She's a deeply emotional lass with lot's of thought's and opinions that express self worth and loving who you are and not letting other's negatively push you to change who you are.. As a female i understand the power of inner strength and positivity in both thought and self expression. Always be yourself, what other's think of me is none of my buisness but what i think of myself is everything..
Aurora said once that she is more like Dumbledore than like Luna. The way she said "very good" in the beginning of the tutorial reminded me of Dumbledore. 💔♥️⭐🐱😘🌜🌚🦋🌾💚🌻
lol....I love this comment. I assume you watched her livestream concert thingy she hosted in the midst of covid? Where she interviewed various artists she likes....and then had them perform? That was everything to me. So inspiring/intimate...but also so funny. Her dry humor is the best. She'd give some really inspirational heartfelt speech, talk to an amazing artist, and then start the next segment by saying something like "howdy motherfuckers...welcome back to my house. it's me...in da house." She's legit funny....and it's underrated.
6:42 lol....the way her sister laughs and looks at Aurora....reminds me of this article I read once about Aurora. It was from a Norwegian magazine. And the author interviewed lots of people close to Aurora. He asked them all....what's the one thing about Aurora that most people don't know or realize or understand. And apparently they ALL said....she's the funniest person we know, she could legit be a comedian. Couldn't agree more. I just love how dry and ironic her humor often is. And sometimes a bit dark too....which I also love.
I am wondering if Aurora would like to be guested on "Sesame Street" or any kid's show. She's a good host and you can see that she is educating the audience.
She is very human. She works very hard at being AURORA for her fans. It is not natural for her at all (she is very shy and introverted in real life), but she feels it is important, part of why she exists on this Earth.
She knows. She has worked hard on AURORA's voice. In some of her early interviews when she was still using the little girl with butterfly pin in hair persona she used a serious BBC announcer type voice, but when she went for the more elfin joking approach to interviews, that's when she adopted the lilting half-Bjork half-Irish voice. I don't know how much she practices in front of mirrors with a tape recorder or phone camera. I bet a lot. She works very hard at every aspect of being AURORA, because as a deeply introverted person it is not natural at all for her, but it is important to her to connect with her fans and this is how she manages it.
Please don't stalk her. Aurora Aksnes is a very quiet introverted person who needs a lot of quiet time to recharge between performing as AURORA. It's okay to approach her while she is AURORA, she understands that and is happy that she has that effect on people, but when she's at home just bopping to the grocery store and such, just let her be. She needs that time to recharge so she can be the AURORA that affects so many people.
This had me crying by minute three. I've always believed and known what she was saying. It's beautiful hearing it from such an icon and gives me hope in life... hearing this from an artist. I love you aurora
Not sure if if it’s intentional, but her cadence in this reminds me so much of Mr. Rogers… and now I can’t stop imagining the back and forth these two would have. If he were alive, he would be so behind her message.
Lovely expression I feel apart of her songs she has a beautiful soul and calmness love her voice and love her music her thoughts and kindness too others and the planet
@@gojosensei6501 but there is no cure for adhd, the least i can do is go to therapy to know how to deal w the disorder. or i can take medicine, but i guess i only should take it if it's preventing me from being a functional human being, which i kind of am :).
This has been such a transformative morning for me by hearing Cure For Me and watching this amazing after party. Your music has helped me survive a traumatic year, recovering in a new way that is REAL healing. Thank you for being so honest and vulnerable about your life and creative process. It’s been hard to unmask and show how neurodivergent I am, and it’s been terrifying. Your music, your words, your message .... please continue being your authentic self. I’m so grateful for you.
While watching this video, I finally felt the courage to come out to my best friend, and cried. Cried of relief and happiness and acceptance. Aurora, not only do you make me feel like I belong, but you also remind me that my friends are probably feeling the same, and we're all more alike than we think. Thank you, thank you.
If aurora reads this hi, so I just got out of a toxic relationship and i heard this song and I've been feeling better. I want to say that you've been here for me a lot, its helped a ton! Thanks! Ashie Hand
@@gojosensei6501 Why wouldn't she? :) But yes, it is unlikely that she saw the comment, but she has heard similar things many times so I am sure she would have appreciated the comment if she had read it. It is one of the things that keeps her making music, the thought that it is her purpose to help people feel and heal.
@@gojosensei6501 i know the chances are unlikely but your heart and brain is too tiny to care ♡. as I said its unlikely. But if she does see this im sure she will be happy that she saved a life.
I'm glad someone posted this video for posterity. I remember watching it live around this time last year. Man, feels so long ago.... I remember being super giddy when that countdown hit zero. I was just in bed, all the lights off except for my blue light bulb and magenta christmas lights, and I was drinking a little wine and just soaking up the good vibes of this weird little afterparty stream. Feels like ages ago.....so weird that was only one year ago. o_O
This video made me happy in my heart. When Iris said, "i was put in a box, and i was told i was too much," i felt that hit me so hard. I ALWAYS believed this, that i was too much or not good enough. Now, while i listen to this, i feel accepted. What a weird feeling to get just by someone telling you the truth! I am happy to hear this today❤
I love your 🔮! Ty to You and Magnus and to all of you band and all involved in your creative process! Simply amazing ❤️ remember that every single day and night....
Thank you so much aurora love you you brought stuff to the surface and I had a good cry, but I needed to going through a lot at the min have to be strong what you said about yourself I am the same I can't believe you're like me cause I love you so much your so amazing talented and you send messages of hope to people and your such a caring person I feel blessed to have a connection with you on u tube I have great respect for you never change your so different to eny1 else your music what message you send xx🦄🌈🌺🧚♀️🧜♀️
I am protective of her because I know how hard she works at being AURORA, which is not at all natural for her as a quiet self-contained person in real life. But that is what she has chosen for her life, to connect with people as AURORA and do her part to try to make the world a better place in what little way she can.
When we really and truly go within , and experience heightened awareness , we may be lucky enough to experience a oneness in which we may realize that , on a higher level of awareness , we ARE each other , and what we do to others , we are , essentially doing to ourselves . Just LOVE one another . God Bless you Aurora !
We are each a lens of the cosmos, exploring and experiencing itself in countless forms. Universal energy manifesting itself in an ultimate play and dance. Your eyes create the universe. Your eyes are a part of the universe. You evoke the light from the sun. When you dream, the universe is experiencing those dreams. Life is a beautiful amd terrifyingly ecstatic play of energy. Being a mixed up human being is just as natural as the waves on the ocean or the mottled leaves on the branch of a tree. Love others and by doing this you are loving yourself.
I feel that "Cure For Me" makes total sense to me. I believe it's about that we don't need to change for others if it means changing who we are. It's a fantastic song.
Okay I'm starting to like this woman's vibe. Seems so chilled and don't give a care in the world. She is just here to do her thing and that's all what makes her happy. Yeah I like it very much. She seems awesome to be around with 👌
Whoever produced this Song/Video "Cure for me" High quality STUFF--this is a WINNER--I love her--she is 25 so disciplined--so talented--She has got it all-! She is so wise for 25 year old--She is going to become so successfully--I hope she keeps it Strong--like this--and nothing makes her FALL--like depression or anything crazy--she is really gifted-Keep it Strong AURORA
Listening to Aurora's music is transformative and sO freeing! Listening to her talking is pure ASMR, so soothing and I fall asleep to her quirkiness so easily. This was a joy to watch. LOVELOVELOVE this warrior of love and her sister is gorgeous too 🥰💕
Aurora there is life after death. You are a great singer and when you die, you are gonne but not forever, and then yes after death everything matters of what you did in this world
I was writing, fascinated in science and math and going to Stanford University. My dad boxed me in by getting me to work at 16. I worked for so many dreams that were others. Oh, I have college degrees, but I finally said no more to working for others and found my true self. No more boxes! I have so many things I’m up to now. I was always wrong until I realized I was right the whole time. It was a stereotypical ‘have to work to survive’ trap! Well, it is just not true! It never was. Thank you.
Society has kindof made me into a fairly cold analytical person, i feel aurora helps me rediscover some of the child-like tenderness which was beaten out of me to conform with society.
Is it weird that this song reminds me of drinking lemonade on a hot day? It's very fancy, sparkly and sweet just like this song. lemonade is to make you feel cool and happy throughout the day. Its so addictive that you wanna take another drop just like being addicted to this thriving beat. You just want more of it
