Born in Guernsey in the Channel Islands, Tim owned a studio complex from the age of 17. Deep underground in the German communications bunker

Within a couple of years he was playing keyboards and bass with Julian Cope’s band on a World Tour, having worked on Julian’s album ‘Peggy Suicide’.  In 1993, he met up with Greg Roberts (ex-BAD/Screaming Target) and formed Dreadzone. They were signed to Creation Records, Virgin Records and Rufflife Records and had several hit singles and albums, including ‘Little Britain’ and ‘Second Light’.

 the company was sold to Digidesign, creators of ProTools. The system is
 now known as Digidelivery, part of the ProTools software.

Tim then fully returned to his music production career and also has released a solo album under the project name Subsonar. He also works alongside legendary producer Youth on most of his projects, including The Orb, The Charlatans, Primal Scream and Paul McCartney.

"**Butterflies**" is a song by English singer-songwriter Tom Odell featuring Norwegian singer AURORA. It was released worldwide as a single on January 27, 2023.

## About the song

Tom spoke about the song in a press statement:

> "I have been a fan of Aurora and her music for many years and it was a dream come true to make this song together. It's a song about spending the day with somebody you really like and at the end of the day having to say goodbye to them, not knowing if you will ever see them again, but being happy for the experience regardless."

## Lyrics

When you touch me, I feel butterflies

I'm gonna love you till the day I die (Die)

When you cut me, you cut me like a knife (Cut me like a knife)

I wanna tell you, but I'm terrified

Oh, what a perfect day

Why do you have to go away?

Now the sky's so grey

I think I'm gonna be okay

Be okay

I'm gonna be okay

I'm gonna be okay

Am I gonna be okay?

When you touch me I feel butterflies (I feel butterflies)

I'm gonna love you till the day I die (Till the day I die)

When you cut me, you cut me like a knife

You don't know it, but you saved my life

Gonna be okay

Think I'm gonna be okay

Kenny McCracken

**Kenny McCracken** is a photographer and filmmaker based in London and Brighton. He has crafted his style through a decade of shooting people where his rapport with his sitters allows him to achieve his somber but intense aesthetic. With a background in the music industry, it seemed obvious that he should combine his love, for both music and photography into one career. So it is not surprising that much of Kenny's work, is in or around the music industry. He is also imbedded in two different production companies as a director, Rubbernecker Films and Otherfinger Films, where he has directed and DOP'd on several music videos and adverts.

McCracken has been involved in the media industries for over a decade, having studied for a degree in photography at Brighton University. After graduating, he was offered a record deal with his band Victor Malloy, and later with Gloria Cycles, releasing albums with both.

After ten years of writing, recording and touring, it was a natural progression for Kenny to pursue music photography, and he has photographed album covers, press shots and magazine articles for the likes of Rizzle Kicks, Orbital, Alice Russell and The Maccabees.

This career developed into music videos, and today Kenny works on large and small productions, bringing his unique eye and original ideas to support the music that his images are tasked with reflecting.

Perfume of Love

"**Perfume of Love**" is an unreleased song by AURORA. It is registered on various song repertoires.

The full song was leaked on August 23, 2022.

## Lyrics

(The perfume of love)

The night we never speak about

Everyone was thirsty, so hungry

Nascent teeth and flesh and dyes

Exploring what is hidden, forbidden

Beautiful red over our heads

Covering us (us, us, us)

Dream is nightmare, wine is blood

Everything is melting to one thing

Bodies kissing in the grass

Every creature feasting and breathing

A beautiful red heart from the red

Colour my love

It's the human in love

That is following us

And is filling us up

Like a perfume of love

Like a perfume of love

I don't care if I die

I don't care if I die

I don't care if I die

Magnus Skylstad

**Magnus Åserud Skylstad** (born 17 June 1983) is a Norwegian producer, musician and sound engineer from Bergen. He began playing drums around the age of fifteen years old. He played drums in Aurora's band and sessions, co-produced many AURORA songs, and is a confidante of Aurora in her music career.

Recounting how he met Aurora, Magnus said: "My manager Geir Luedy (MADE Management) asked me if I could do a session with a young woman, we booked the studio and we recorded 5 or 6 of their songs with just the vocals and piano. I selected one of the songs I wanted to work with. This song was 'Runaway'. She immediately impressed me."

After 8 years of touring with Aurora, Magnus quit as her live drummer in 2022 to have more time to create music.

Wisdom Cries

## *All My Demons Greeting Me as a Friend* Chronology

"**Wisdom Cries**" is the sixteenth track on deluxe versions of the album *All My Demons Greeting Me as a Friend*. It was written by Aurora, Michelle Leonard, and Nicolas Rebscher and produced by Rebscher.

## About the song

This is one of Aurora's favorite songs off the debut album and, referencing this song, she said she believes that she will "definitely go a bit more complex" as she becomes more powerful.

It is reminiscent of the inability to think clearly when we are disoriented. Touching on ideas like insomnia and melancholy, the minor chords and minor chord progressions intend to cause stress in the listener. When listening to this song for the first time, imagine waking up after a bad dream and not sleeping well, only to awake to a fire alarm or siren.

> "It's about... Humans and the world. We have spent so many years, millions of years collecting wisdom and learning about each other, respect, knowledge and all of the things we should know. Then I feel like if Wisdom was a person, maybe, he/she'd look down upon us and see all the things we do towards the planet, the animals, the women, the men and the children... I think Wisdom would cry because we spend like a second tearing down what we have spent millions of years becoming, if that makes sense. And it's... sad."
>

## Lyrics

We go way back in time, time

Through diamond eyes

We go running

Way back in time

Through diamond eyes

We gotta go back to the start

Back to who we are back home

We gotta go back to the start

Back to who we are back home

Tick-tock, tick-tock

Tick-tock, tick

Where is the way?

Are we meant to go down again?

We go down

Lightning strikes

Wisdom cries

Emergency, emergency

Conscience all nice

No one's surprise

As modestly, emergency

Emergency, emergency

Wi- Wisdom cries

Wisdom cries

Wisdom cries

Wisdom cries

Wisdom cries

Wisdom cries

In the Night

"**In the Night**" is a song originally by The Weeknd that AURORA covered live on BBC Radio 2 on March 5, 2016.

## Lyrics

All alone, she was living

In a world without an end or beginning

Little girl was living life for the feeling

But I don't mind, I don't mind

And all the wrongs she committed

She was numb and she was so co-dependent

She was young and all she had was the city

But I don't mind, I don't mind

I know

That she's capable of anything, it's riveting

But when

You wake up, she's always gone, gone, gone

In the night, she hears him calling

In the night, she's dancing to relieve the pain

She'll never walk away (I don't think you'll understand)

In the night, when she comes crawling

Dollar bills and tears keep falling down her face

She'll never walk away

I don't think you'll understand

He sang a song when he did it

He was cold and he was so unforgiving

Now she dances to the song on the minute

All the time, all the time

It made her weak when she hears it

And it got her on her knees like religion

She was young and she was forced to be a woman

All the time, all the time

I know

That she's capable of anything, it's riveting

And when

You wake up, she's always gone, gone

In the night, she hears him calling

In the night, she dancing to relieve the pain

She'll never walk away (I don't think you understand)

In the night, when she comes crawling

Dollar bills and tears keep falling down her face

She'll never walk away

I don't think you'll understand

I don't think you'll understand

Oh, I don't think you'll understand

I don't think you will understand

In the night, when she hears him calling

In the night, she's dancing to relieve the pain

She'll never walk away (I don't think you understand)

In the night, when she comes crawling

Dollar bills and tears keep falling down her face

She'll never walk away

I don't think you'll understand

When I Became a Bird

"**When I Became a Bird**" (also known as "**When I Become a Bird**") is an unreleased song by AURORA. Not a lot is known about the song other than the fact that it was registered on various song repertoires.

The full song leaked on January 15, 2022.

## Lyrics

I'm hanging on the string

I'm lying on the wind

White feathers on my skin

A shadow as my twin

Keeping my head up

Never go under, go under

My spirit is better

When it came under, came under

Oh, find me a heart that sings

My body is getting numb

Freedom calling loud

The sound of wings instead of words

That is what I'm looking for

When I become a bird

I become, I become

I become a bird, a bird

Oh, let my chest be torn

So trust can be reborn

Then travel from my core

That shaming stood before

Keeping my head up

Never go under, go under

Leaving the darkness

Starting to wonder, to wonder

If I could have it all

Does something have to fall

Freedom calling loud

The sound of love instead of hurt

That is what I'm dreaming of

When I become a bird

I become, I become

I become a bird

(Keeping my head up, go under)

I become, I become

I become a bird

(Keeping my head up, never go under)

A bird

I become, I become

I become a bird

Go under

(If I could have it all)

I become, I become

I become a bird

A bird

If I could have it all

Does something have to fall

This is how I left

Weightless on a breath

This is how I lived

With a little death

Mmmm, mmmm

Golden

"**Golden**" is a song originally by Harry Styles that AURORA covered for BBC Radio 1's *Piano Sessions* in 2022.

## Lyrics

Golden, golden, golden

As I open my eyes

Focus, hold it, hoping

Take me back to the light

I know you were way too bright for me

Hopeless, I'm broken

So you wait for me in the sky

Browns my skin just right

You're so golden

You're so golden

And I know that you're scared

Because hearts get broken

I don't wanna be alone

I don't wanna be alone

And it ends

Don't want to let you know

Oh, I don't wanna be alone

But I can feel it take a hold

And I can feel you take control

Of who I am, and all I've ever known

Hmm, loving is the antidote

Golden

You're so golden

You're so golden

You're so golden

And I know that you're scared

Because hearts get broken

You're so golden

You're so golden

You're so golden

And I know that you're scared

Because hearts get broken

You're so golden

And I know that you're scared

Because hearts get broken

You're so golden

And I know that you're scared

Because hearts get broken

An instrumental of an early version (minor difference) leaked on December 31, 2019, and the instrumental of the 'final' version leaked in November 2021.

## Background

Aurora's version was included on a promo CD in 2015, but was never officially released. It was at one point slated to be the single after "Runaway".

## About the song

A 2015 article from *Ça Ç'est Culte!* noted: "Silhouettes, which she says is different from other tracks she's done. There is a lot of rage in this song, it's done on purpose."

## Lyrics

Myself inside a mirror on the wall

A look within my eyes I can't recall

A feeling that I was no more

And when I stopped, the silhouette moved on

She turned her head and walked away

So far I could no longer see

Hey, hey

My own reflection on the wall

Was no longer reflecting me

Hey, hey

I look in the mirror I see reflections

I see the eyes of somebody else

I look in the mirror I see reflections

I see reflections of myself

The lady was a part that I've ignored

I've felt her underneath my skin before

I tried to never listen to her words

Until they were the only words I heard

The lady on the other side

She screamed again with angry eyes

Hey, hey

And in my hand there was a stone

I threw it and the mirror broke

Hey, hey

I look in the mirror I see reflections

I see the eyes of somebody else

I look in the mirror I see reflections

I see reflections of myself

Go back where you came from

Where you belong

From all the anger

Where you are numb

Go back where you came from

Where you belong

From all the anger

Where you are numb

I look in the mirror I see reflections

I see the eyes of somebody else

I look in the mirror I see reflections

I see reflections of myself

Go back where you came from

Where you belong

From all the anger

Where you are numb

Go back where you came from

Where you belong

From all the anger

Where you are numb

Churchyard

## About the song

The song was written in early 2016.

In an interview, Aurora said about the song:

> "*Churchyard* is just like the concept of someone bigger using their power in the wrong way, that happens all the time in politics, with children, women. I wanted the songs to feel empowering - like at the end of 'Churchyard', she comes back to haunt him."
>
>

## Lyrics

He told me I belong in a churchyard

He told me I could walk away but I wouldn't get far

Tell me, how do people know what is hurt, what is love?

He told me I belong in a churchyard

Words pointy like arrows

Wounds no one can see

He closed all the windows

As his anger broke free

I will not remember

You as somebody nice

Please, will you remember me

And cry?

He told me I belong in a churchyard

He told me I could walk away but I wouldn't get far

Tell me, how do people know what is hurt, what is love?

He told me I belong in a churchyard

Hate followed him gently

Black seeds in his heart

Roots tearing the love in him apart

He told me I belong in a churchyard

He told me I could walk away but I wouldn't get far

Tell me, how do people know what is hurt, what is love?

He told me I belong in a churchyard

Lyrics copied from the booklet of *Infections of a Different Kind of Human* (Japanese Deluxe Edition CD).

This Could Be a Dream

## *The Gods We Can Touch* alternative chronology

"**This Could Be a Dream**" is a song by AURORA from her fourth album, *The Gods We Can Touch*.

## About the song

Aurora said to *Apple Music*:

> "I wrote this very late, so it was completely dark the whole time. I was thinking about people's dark hours, and I wanted to make a song for those who never learn to dance and run because they're just managing to stand up. It takes so many muscles for a human body to even stand up, so I can understand why people can't find the strength for it. It's very hard to be a human, and I'm just saddened by the idea that some people never get to explore their own full potential because they constantly have to simply fight for the right to exist. That just breaks my heart. So I wanted to make a song for them."
>

## Lyrics

Look up at the light

This could be a dream

Or it could be real?

Dive into my mind

And don't come up for air

You won't need it here

Can I move you?

Can I soothe your fear?

Could you trust love

If I prove it's there?

Oh, I need to know it too

And now I don't feel you

So I lift myself and I close my eyes

And I sing sometimes to know I'm alive

I know I should figure this out on my own

But if you come by could you take me home?

I get back up when the wind is strong

But I wish I knew how it felt to run

I know I'm not alone

And if you come by could you take me home?

Being so alive can hurt so very much

When you're losing touch

But if I touched you, would you feel it there?

Could I trust love

Even if I'm scared?

Oh, I wish I could give like I'm longing to give

Oh, I wish I could live like I'm longing to live

And I lift myself and I close my eyes

And I sing sometimes to know I'm alive

I know I should figure this out on my own

But if you come by could you take me home?

I get back up when the wind is strong

But I wish I knew how it felt to run

I know I'm not alone

And if you come by could you take me home?

This could be a dream

This could be a dream

And I lift myself and I close my eyes

And I sing sometimes to know I'm alive

I know I should figure this out on my own

But if you come by will you take me home?

I get back up when the wind is strong

But I wish I knew how it felt to run

I know I'm not alone

And if you come could you take me home?

Exist for Love (Benjamin Mørk Acoustic Remix)

"**Exist for Love (Benjamin Mørk Acoustic Remix)**" is the remixed version of "Exist for Love" by Benjamin Mørk. On August 7, 2020 the remix was officially released worldwide.

## Lyrics

They say there is a war

Between the man and the woman

I've never felt like this before

My heart knew that I couldn't

And then you take me in

And everything in me begins to feel like I belong

Like everybody needs a home

And when I take your hand

Like the world has never held a man

I know I cannot heal the hurt

But I will hold you here forever

If I can, if I can

And then I learnt the truth

How everything good in life seems to lead back to you

And every single time I run into your arms

I feel like I exist for love

Like I exist for love

Only for love...

I can't imagine how it is to be forbidden from loving

'Cause when you walked into my life

I could feel my life begin

Like I was torn apart the minute I was only born

And you're the other half

The only thing that makes me whole

I know it sounds like a lot...

But you really need to know

We are leaning out for love

And we will lean for love forever, I know

I love you so

And then I learnt the truth

How everything good in life seems to lead back to you

And every single time I run into your arms

I feel like I exist for love

Only for love...

And when you say my name

Like white horses on the waves

I think it feels the same

As an ocean in my veins

And you'll be diving in

Like nothing is out of place

And we exist for love

Only for love

And I love you, I love you, I love you

## Lyrics

She runs and runs

He walks, calm breeze

Her burning lungs

He's floating on leaves

Her name, her skin

His aim cold, target pale blue[?]

Shadows of ghosts

Her eyes he sees through

And the colours are gone

They are falling

Every colour has fallen

Colours are gone

They are falling

Every colour has fallen

Too far to touch

Too close to see his face

Inside her mind

Stolen peace from a safe place

No stone unturned

The search within herself

Is hard to find

Where could you be hiding?

And the colours are gone

They are falling

Every colour has fallen

Colours are gone

They are falling

Every colour has fallen

Fallen, fallen, fallen, fallen

Fallen, fallen, fallen, fallen

Fallen, fallen, fallen, fallen

Fallen, fallen, fallen, fallen

Feels like it's all

Inside my mind

Feels like it's all

Inside my mind

Feels like it's all (Feels like it's all)

Inside my mind (Inside my mind)

Feels like it's all (Feels like it's all)

Inside my mind (Inside my)

Feels like it's all (Feels like it's all)

Inside my mind

Feels like it's all (Feels like it's all)

Inside my mind (Inside my)

Feels like it's all (Feels like it's all)

Inside my mind (Inside my)

Feels like it's all

Inside my mind

And the colours are gone

They are falling

Every colour has fallen

Colours are gone

They are falling

Every colour has fallen

Fallen, fallen, fallen, fallen

Fallen, fallen, fallen, fallen

Fallen, fallen, fallen, fallen

Fallen, fallen, fallen
