  • Ok youtube algorithm, you win this time. The cover is breathtaking.
  • It's so faithful to the original, yet still is clearly her own. This is a perfect cover.
  • @maybefuture
    5 years later, I am still here. What a beautiful piece
  • @chrisp.5352
    Her voice is angelic, almost puts one into a trance. Amazing

    To anyone who sees this....and isn't an Aurora fan or only barely knows of her. After watching this... Look up and watch her live at Nidarosdomen concert. The entire thing is here on YT. Trust me....if that doesn't touch the core of your soul and blow your mind....I don't know how to help you. 4 years ago in early 2020, I'd never heard of Aurora, and randomly played that concert. One hour later...after picking my jaw off the floor, I was instantly a massive fan and could tell it would be a lifelong thing. She's a once in a generation writer and performer and vocalist. AND...if that weren't enough, she's basically the coolest kindest human ever.
  • I LOVE Massive Attack, so I am very critical of anyone who attempts something like this. But what a surprise that I am actually blown away. What a beautiful voice Aurora has! She did this song justice and made it her own all in one. Well done!
  • @meowmew444
    She's like a mystical nymph princess who's come to bless this mortal world with her voice.
  • she looks like a powerful witch who lives in a land of ice and snow and her voice is unbelievable. im instantly a fan
  • @_creighton
    This song was biding its time awaiting her arrival... such clarity and purity of tone and expression... wow. simply wow!
  • @deepumamman
    This is how the Northern Lights would sound like if we could hear them.
  • @DoctorORBiT
    Control of an opera singer, stage presence of a forest pixie, enchantment of a siren <3
  • The note she belts at 2:22 gives me strong Cranberries vibes and I now need her to cover “Zombie”
  • @mirage_404
    Her voice is just... otherworldly. She has crazy voice control.
  • Aurora is capable to merge massive attack, enya, bjork, portishead and all the trip hop vibes with her voice and talento in one shot, I love their music
  • @beachbrettf
    The control she has in her voice is absolutely amazing.
  • If elves existed, Aurora would sure have to be one. Her voice is pure and straight from heaven..
