AURORA on 'What Happened To The Heart?': “Apathy is the biggest enemy to progress" 

Wow. That is just.. ethereal.

My sentiments as well.

You got it

That’s a hauntingly beautiful quote , thank you

Ah darth traya, not a story the jedi would tell you 🤔

@@thatgirldaniel9830 glad to share it with people! If you're curious the game is Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords

Are you Vegan or apathetic? “In the midst of our high-tech, ostentatious, hedonistic lifestyle, among the dazzling monuments to history, art, religion, and commerce, there are the black boxes. These are the biomedical research laboratories, factory farms, and slaughterhouses - faceless compounds where society conducts its dirty business of abusing and killing innocent, feeling beings. These are our Dachaus, our Buchenwalds, our Birkenaus. Like the good German burghers, we have a fair idea of what goes on there, but we don’t want any reality checks.” Dr. Alex Hershaft, Warsaw Ghetto survivor

This is amazing. There are so many geniuses working on obscure projects

Then she wouldn’t be so unique

It's not easy at all. The world is usually very cruel toward anyone that are unusual and don't want to play the silly games most people do, about being "normal" and similar absurd ideals. I've become pretty much crushed flat myself, trying it, even here in Norway, but I hope things are easier for youth now, at least it seems it worked for Aurora here in Norway, but she must have been lucky with many things.

I'm one! :D

She takes a second to pause and actually think about her response, instead of being reactionary like a lot of individuals.

I spend much time to be less like this as the world is very cruel and calls people weirdo and irritating that cry over the death of butterflys. I am trying to unmask myself as the world should learn to accept people as they are. But imagine she was a 40yr old dude and put her words into this mouth. It would leave another impression. I wish the world to change and love but am afraid we are not ready yet.

It probably helps that he's been interviewing her since she started. There's a long form NME interview, with this guy, for every one of her past album releases. There's another guy, on the channel B-Sides TV, who's done long interviews with her for every album cycle since the debut as well. I really hope they hook up again this time! It makes a difference when the person she's talking to is someone she has some history with. They get each other and like each other.

Indeed

I think her biggest gift seems to be having always known exactly who she is.

@@WanderTrustI think the bigger gift is noticing when she was losing her self so quickly . Suppressing sadness and writing “I’m lying to my self” at 12 years old and deciding to face it so quickly before fully developing a mask and consequences is amazing

@@Duck72432 yes, exactly! later is harder, you feel so bad with yourself for lying so much, you have to forgive yourself, but you are not used to be fully yourself so you keep lying so you have to forgive yourself again etc hard to break the cycle

Right?? Wasn’t it the most obvious thing in the world that she would be a huge fan of avatar even though I’ve never seen her talk about it before.

@@AtTheDoor yes and her smooth moves like from the characters. yher ancient martial arts

She was like, you guys know 😏

19:55 lol

we all caught it 😂

i was like do your research before interviewing artists.

so funny, love that she didnt correct him. It was probably just a slip up

At the same time, I think she is burning to talk about the new album and its music and what it means to her, but is forced to hold back.

Better to be aware of what she says than automatically think everything she says is wise. For example at the end she said "don't do drugs" then a second later she said "don't be a don't:er, do be a do:er". Great wisdom ;-)

Accepting the contradiction is a wise way to accept ourselves as humans … nothing particularly wrong in it imho

@@Vitupers what do you mean by that? did you actually mean anything by it or did you simply just say something that sounded meaningful?

@@chiller6912 well if it doesn’t sound meaningful to you I’m sorry, to me it does… have a day🫶🏽

@@chiller6912I think he/she means that we all contradict ourselves, thats what makes us human

it's not stupid at all !! I understand perfectly what you mean and feel kind of the same

I was like this for 5 years, I think it is called depersonalisation, or at least is very similar to it. I think it was caused by very long loneliness and having absolutely nobody in my life who I feel like understands a glimpse of who I am and how I see the world. At some point I forgot who I was myself, and what I like or dislike, and wether I dreamed or experienced something. I was depressed for years before it started. It eventually slowly went away. I am not entirely sure why. Something inside me changed, but also I met people who are actually nice and found my own worth a bit from that.

You know, you can't Lost Hope when you found so much people who thinks with their Heart, even if it's a broken one. I know it's a minority, but WE are here.

I feel you, you are not alone. Same thing happens to me, she helps me to live

I feel exactly the same way!

i found youu stuff

Yes and yes! And with Phil Marriott!

Aurorinha tá cada dia mais gata! Minha dream girl!

💯

Huii

because there is little else around

@@mattiemclean9882 well... there is plenty around. But I've never met any like Aurora

@@Toxicdemon2 Look harder. She's just a pretty normal, Norwegian girl. Like a typical nice aunt, inviting the children in for waffles and milk. Just so happy the world enjoy such a Norwegian person as herself. I live like 15-20 minute away from her, and have a friend from the same place she went to school.

@@elvenkind6072 Perhaps in Norway. Might be another reason to move to Norway 😉😄

@@Toxicdemon2 I pray you will experience the western coast here. When I grew up here as a child, some years we visited my mothers family in northern Norway, and I would just sit in the back seat of the car with my mouth open, watching such amazing beauty everywhere. You can't help it, but become filled by this beauty. The bitter winters, where the cold days and darkness, dead trees and withered grass, last longer the half the year, only make the springs even more amazing. It feels like levitating above the ground (actually, when the farmers let loose the lambs to the green grass, they just jump around with unreleased energy, back legs kicking the air higher then their head, it feels much like that for humans too) when the sun finally come back, shining with warm rays, making the little birds sing beautiful songs, and flowers and green, fertile, lush things flow up everywhere, and the snow of the mountains turn into rivers, that alone power almost the entire country with electricity, because of the immense power of the transformation. If you can't move here, at least try to visit the western coast, somewhere after May and before October. Wishing for a nice weekend for you and yours, with love from me and my kitty Lucis. 🙂

and it is beautiful also. all the differences we hold but the similarities we share. so many small things we're made of.

She will be 28 this year , hardly young . She sounds a lot younger tbh . Just hope she's authentic

No I think she is more human than most of us

They're different to your brains neurons, they're soley for generating the cardiac rhythm. Plus, twice as many as that die a day in a healthy adult human brain.
