???5 stars....This is a perfect song to begin an album with and adequately sets the mood for the whole album titled Horizon. It's short but beautiful.

Beautiful beginning bookend song: Karen sings it so lovely, as always. Nothing really special about the song itself - just a nice effect, with a grand voice singing it. 4 stars. Tim

Five Stars
This song sets the mood for what is the Carpenters' darkest and most intense album.
"Aurora" gives you that feeling of waking up feeling like everything is cozy yet brand new. Richard's piano performance is beautifully delicate while Karen's vocal is outstanding and mesmerizing. One of Karen's most intimate vocals ever.
I love this bookend piece.

AFTER A BREAK FROM RECORDING HORIZON, IF I AM NOT MISTAKEN. KAREN AND RICHARD WENT TO DINNER TO CELEBRATE THEIR PARENTS WEDDING ANNIVERSARY AND THEN WENT BACK INTO THE RECORDING STUDIO EARLY IN THE AM TO RECORD AURORA. THEY WERE STUDIO ANIMALS FOR SURE.. THIS IS SUCH A GREAT OPENING TO THIS INCREDIBLE ALBUM..I HAVE LOVED IT FROM THE FIRST TIME I HEARD IT..

Perhaps I should start by saying that 'Fan's Review' has impelled me to listen to 'Horizon' complete for the first time in a long while; and with "fresh ears", what strikes me more than ever is just how brilliantly it was recorded. Due to technical advances, The Carpenters were for the first time able to record in 24 track stereo, which instantly enhanced their sound and elevated them even further into unchartered areas of other-worldly intimacy! 'Aurora' and 'Eventide' are perfect examples of that, but do little else to excite me musically. True they are indispensable as part of the 'Horizon' concept, and Karen's vocals are extraordinarily lucid, but I would have preferred to hear two brand new complete songs as opposed to a pair of fairly pedestrian bookends.
3 Stars. L

Great, 5 stars. Sometimes I listen to it several times while driving at night and I get a really good feeling.

5 Stars! "Aurora" is a great opening for a GREAT album, Karen sounds particularly obscure and intense but in the same way very beautiful, and matches perfectly with Richard's keyboards performance.

Companion piece to Eventide. I like to listen to the 2 pieces one after the other. It's like another day in the life... Words and delivery are very visual.
