Aurora is amazing live. I saw her in Trondheim in nov. 2022. You just have to love this young artist and her personality. She is unique. I`m planing to se her in july in Kristiansand. Thank you for sharing.
Awesome watching you go deep into the Aurora rabbit hole these past few weeks. Glad you appreciate her as much as we do :) I'll leave a request as well, if you haven't checked this one out yet definitely worth a watch: Everything Matters ft. Pomme (Live On Rhythm By Modzik)
Very nice 😊. One of my favorite performances of hers and one I return to often. Pedals... The most pedals I've ever seen was at a White Stripes concert ages ago. Dude was busy with his feet! Never really paid attention to it before that.
I watched the whole reaction, I prefere watching the whole concert rather than watching it in parts. Thanks to UMA, Aurora, Magnus and Fredrick for a great concert. Great reaction, thanks.
Thanks for the full performance, Will! I wish more reactors gave their audience credit for having a longer attention span than the typical 7 or 8 minute video reaction. By the way, to really appreciate how Aurora re-envisions her own songs in different performance settings you should definitely watch the official music video of “Cure for Me”- it is a totally different vibe and not at all like the bossa nova version here. Both versions are wonderful.
Aurora recorded an 11 min climate statement video at COP26 which is on the same UMA channel as the concert, or you can search for: "AURORA on the Climate Crisis A COP26 Special Event". She also joined a 42 min panel discussion with the other artists at the conference, it is on the same channel or search for: "Climate Action... The Artist Way A COP26 Special Event".
You're right about the bass that kicks in to boost some of the songs. I've heard that before in another acoustic performance of Cure For Me (bossanova version). How do they do that? Is it a prerecording, a live triggered sequence or played live?
I guess it is the guitarist triggering a pedal with his foot. So he’s playing the guitar and the bass at the same time during those segments, which is rad!!!
If you like her belting voice, you should hear "You Keep Me Crawling". There are a few live versions, but they are all audience recordings unfortunately, not great audio quality. There is a lyric video of the studio version on her main channel. If you have only heard these acoustic versions of Warrior, you should listen to the studio version, it is more powerful. There is a live version close to the studio version called Stripped Vevo UK Lift. It is not actually stripped, but it was at the same session as the a cappella song you reacted to.
I for one don't mind the long videos. Sometimes the length of the video will determine when I can sit & watch it but I will still watch. Long videos are more engaging. BTW, I'm really enjoying watching you discover Aurora. It brings me back to the time I was doing the same & judging by your comments & facial expressions our feelings are mutual. The only bad thing about discovering Aurora is that you can only do it once. I still love her just as much as in the beginning but the newness is slipping away & I remember how special that felt.
Love the long reactions, not always able to watch right away, but I will watch them, love them. This is a great showcase for all of their talents, and top it off with her wonderful performance, it is just a stellar show. I think her lower register has grown warmer, richer and I think she likes it better now because we are hearing it more now. It is beautiful, like her gorgeous high notes. She is my favorite multi talented artist, can you tell, lol. Also, not sure if you know, but she had dance lessons for 10 years, 6 to 16, she had so much energy as a child it was a great outlet for her. She loves to dance and it shows it almost all of her live performances, she is constantly moving, so captivating and engaging.
I used to love playing the Star Spangled Banner on electric guitar, using only the harmonics. With a sustain pedal and lots of gain! I was a rock star in my own living room.
