“Runaway”, the third single by Aurora, settles any dispute whether the fresh-faced, 18-year-old Norwegian is here to stay. Her lyrics of loneliness are bathed in slithering synth and emphatic percussion: “ I was running far away, would I even love the world some day/ nobody knows/ nobody knows… But no, take me home/ take me home where I belong/ I can’t take it anymore”. Her voice resonates with a power unique for her age and effortlessly glides to hit glistening high notes. The search for comfort she describes is tackled with an impressively mature and polished sound.
