Aurora! The 18 year old Norwegian popstar returns today with the release of her brand new single ‘Running With The Wolves’. This follows on from the sublime ‘Under Stars’ that she released in December. Well – actually there’s been another single in that time, ‘Runaway’. But we weren’t SO keen on that, so didn’t feature it.
Running With The Wolves? What’s all that about? “The song is about having the animal instinct inside you come to life. Running with them, joining them – the instinct taking over, giving you freedom and making you forget about your human self and all things we humans keep around us in the modern society. I think humans need to let go a bit more, shake their bodies more often, like the animals do.. It’s a beautiful thing really. Sometimes when you look at the world, and you see what we’ve done to it, the way many of us hurt the world we live in, innocent animals, even our own kind! And that kind of makes you want to follow the wolves instead. At least for one night”. THAT’S what it’s all about.
All these singles. Is there an album to come soon? Her debut EP will arrive on May 4th.
What else has Aurora been up to? Basking in the glory of internet notoriety, that’s what! A couple of months back, Katy Perry tweeted about our Norwegian newcomer, and how much she was loving her music. Which is a bit awesome.
