AURORA - Senkveld - INTERVIEW 08.05.2015 

Kiz zie She's so eager to please, but stays true to her integrity. Very rare in people!

southport97 Agreed! I have so much respect for individuals like her. And she's still so young!

Damn right.

+southport97 I fully agree.

+Spider Jerusalem I totally agree. She has so much more class than Katy Perry and I hope she stays the way she is and not get corrupted by all the b.s. in the so called "industry". Stay real girl and don't ever sellout.

I know right! I was like c'mon guys, of course that's not her idol, her music isn't even close to her genre or anything!

sucks that aurora's fans are not as positive as her. cmon guys lighten up plz

Wtf she and you wish to accomplish half of what Katy Perry accomplished

@@guitaria66636 Yeah you're right tbh. It was a little uncalled for. I haven't really given Katy Perry an honest go of it, and she's probably successful for a reason. But at the same time, who CAN we shit on if not the wildly successful pop stars with legions of fans, millions of dollars, mansions, the works? Sometimes you just wanna be condescending and snobbish when you feel like an artist you like is on another level, you know? haha I wanna imagine Aurora was digging through some deep cuts of more obscure music when she was inspired into being an artist herself (yes yes I know Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen aren't exactly head-y deep cuts either but still)- "idolizing" radio pop stars who are as much marketing icons as they are musicians seems... unfair to Aurora's artistry. Fans are always gonna be that way about musicians they like. We feel like we have good taste, how you gonna imply the musicians we like have comparably poor taste? It's worth pointing out that Aurora has become significantly more commercially successful in the last five years, since those comments were made. There was a time when being a fan of hers felt like being an early adopter of the next big thing.

+Armadeathon Wow. Chill.

+Armadeathon "The guys r makin fun of her, and treats her like a child." No they aren't. Really they aren't. That's just what you wish to interpret. Are you a child by any chance - mentally speaking, at least? That would explain your odd interpretation of events. Joking and laughing with someone is neither making fun of them nor treating them like a child. Grow a sense of humour and learn how to use it. And learn the difference between laughing with someone and laughing at someone.

+pvandck +Armadeathon I think it was the moth thing. She looked just a bit off put by their constant sarcastic remarks towards her hobby of collecting moths. Sometimes people don't understand how to speak to someone who have different interests or opinions, thus turns to sarcasm which in this interview came off like they were picking on her, which she didn't appear to have appreciated that.

Just a bit of projection there, maybe? She spends all her time in the company of musicians and other people in the business of entertainment. Age and gender were not issues, and honestly I don't know what you think you were watching. There was no disrespect or patronising going on and it all seemed pretty good natured and comfortable. Of course if it's not your culture I suppose you could read all sorts of bad stuff into anything.

+pvandck I tried to write it so it came off more lightly by saying "picking on" or saying "just a bit". There's no need to blow a comment out of proportion. I'm sure this is just a communication error without the context of tone. I agree with you to a degree, but just felt she seemed a bit uncomfortable. That is all. I'm not trying to be rude, I hope you have a good day. 😕

Patryk Zep no he meant that it didnt matter that she said such a weird and embarrassing story because her voice is so beautiful, he didn’t mean in general he was just making her feel better about embarrassing herself

He was trying to comfort her, to say that it dosent matter if you said something stupid, the music is the important thing and you are great at that

It is literally something I value so much, because yes I love her music, but I care more about her than her music.

I agree

Those mans are very sexist with her (and about Katy too, making female rivalry).

+Kay Lace You haven't seen her band members then. I expect when you get past 25 you'll describe yourself as old. At least Aurora Aksnes is much more mature than your comment suggests you are.

+Kay Lace there were 5 old suited men!! even more pressure! But I'm Norwegian, I see this show a lot, and the hosts are very kind, silly and weird, so I think that made some difference, it just didn't show that much in this clip :)

I loved too. I agree with u... ugh i just hate what those mans makes her feel embarrassed

+David Shepard-Alenko Interesting observation. I saw she saying in another interview that she loves her native language but she'd rather choose english when singing as she'd feel a bit more vulnerable singing in norwegian. I feel like watching some more interviews gave by her in norwegian to observe that. Hope i'm lucky to find some more with subtitles in any language i understand now.

I think it's indeed charming, but I don't think her charm is any less here, other than the fact that she seems a tad uncomfortable here and there with their poking fun and generally treating her as a "strange artist" as many interviewers chronically do. I think it further illustrates a maturity in her that fits well with her music.

:) :D

you said well! Thank you!

But she was annoyed. It's always subtle, and fans know how she looks when she is unhappy about the interview. She still smiled because she was new then. She is not a person who easily feels offended. And if it had been so fine, why wouldn't she be on this show again until 2018? She has been on Lindmo regularly but not this one. And why didn't they do this again when she was on it again in 2018? Wasn't that "perfectly pleasant and respectful"? Only morons would fuck with the most talented artist from your own country and make her unwilling to be there again.

Brazil here too

me too

me too

Michael Hawkins tusen takk *thank you*

sava cristian samee

Me too. ;)

wtf?

Exactly.

It's a humorous talk show. It is about funny comments. Aurora knows that. Their job is to make the conversation and the interview object funny. And they do. A thing about Aurora is that her mind wanders off at times. So if she seems like not laughing it is probably because she didn't pay attention at that moment.

same

It's humour program get over it

I also noticed that she looked a bit annoyed

A few of these are comedians, so what to expect?

I see that too, I don't know, It makes me disrespectful that they do not take seriously what she says

Fu

Jéssica Cardoso Done

there are english subtitles

+Jade Nanarjain I think I was watching this on my phone ;)

+niewiem wlasnie you can still have subtitles if you're on your phone

On right upper side-3 vertical dots-captions

+Sprouze English subtitles.

Because of what all insignificant countries suffer from, inferior complex. Try to bear over with those who can't hold back on their proudness. Reasonable Norwegians know all so well, she's good, not because she's Norwegian, but despite this fact. All honor to Aurora and her alone. All social democratic kleptocratic Norway did for her is holding her back.

Why dude

Same. I think the reason is for the both are much natural and authentic. ❤

The guy to the very left actually did an exaggerated imitation of rural Norwegian. They're all from Oslo except for Aurora.

There's an interview with Aurora and her two sisters where the interviewer comments that they all have different accents. Apparently the family moved when Aurora was a baby so the oldest sister has an accent from the old place, aurora from the new place and the middle sister has a halfway accent. Norway must have a lot of accents.

Yes Aurora is from Bergen where you put more pressure on the «r» and «t» she is from the east. The other men are from Oslo where you spreek a clean norwegian actually almost Danish, long time ago Norway was under Denmark and we spoke only danish. In norway today we call it *bokmål* it’s a mix between danish and norwegian. After that a man called *Ivar knudsen* has collected dialects from all over norway and put together *nynorsk* (new norwegian) which is how people in norhern Norway and parts of east Norway actually writes. But in different parts of Norway we have different dialects. from the east its again more pressure on the «r» and «t» in south and west we spreek the more Danish-Norwegian way and all the way north we have more pressure on the *i* t* *j* and also eaven further we have the *sami people* .... sorry my english is not pretty good but i hope i gave you a little understanding of our dialects and history of our language

Indeed

yeah same! one time after a few moth jokes she didn't even laugh anymore

Yep, it's him.

the actor who played Jarl Borg, not Alexander Skarsgård

Ya akakskkska

It's a humor show!

hallejohn There are subtitles if you turn on captions

Aqsa Khan ahhh great thanks. I am not sure if it was there 3 months ago, but thank you. It was quiet funny and weird what she told, but xD it is her. so true I am sorry for wrong grammar.

hallejohn No problem and your grammar is fine!!

hlfkswkg Runaway I think

ty

there is, just Put it on

+Ingvild Krossnes thanks a lot

+Jimmy Waterfall you're welcome :)

One doesn't speak Nynorsk or Bokmål. Since she's from around Bergen she probably writes Bokmål.

I'm not quite sure if she writes bokmål or nynorsk, because in bergen we write bokmål, but i think the rest of hordaland writes nynorsk (don't quote me on that one, because i'm not 100% sure)

+Elisabeth Hasselgreen you are right, great amounts of Hordaland writes nynorsk. But Os is so close to Bergen and the dialect is almost identical, so she writes bokmål like the rest of Bergen :)

.

Mooglië no she's not. it's impossible to speak bokmål or nynorsk

Believe me, she knew what she was getting into when she agreed to come on this show xD

+Shinomen Magunusu I'm sorry, I don't know much about this show. Is it known for asking dumb questions to celebrities?

It's a humor show? Don't complain if you have never watched the show...

+Henrik Michael Gemini's are restless, easily bored and fidgety.

+southport97 Henrik does not know what tourettes is and astrology is of course superstitious bullshit.

@@ensteffo well my horoscope rlly describes how i am too.

That is not tourettes or Tics in any form, tics and tourettes is where you do involuntarily movements, Aurora moves her hands to express herself
