- Hi all!
Countdown.....New Years.....ha.ha. So clever. First things first, John Norum is a criminally underrated guitar player. I got lucky enough to see him with Dokken when he toured with them. It was bitchin to say the least. Also, Europe has a ton of other tunes Ive always dug. Anyway, thanks for everything. It means the world and I hope that all your dreams for the the upcoming year come true! Thanks for always rockin my casbah!
Best to ya

Thanks for a great 2017! Many youtubers had alot of complaints with UA-cam this year, including myself. I just wanted to let ya know, I'll never let an algorithm bully me into doing anything different. I'll do what I've always done, which is take songs that you guys want to hear and give them my best shot :). Cheers to hoping all your dreams and plans for 2018 come true.
Much love,
E
Checkout Norther's Final Countdown if you can..
Big Ups ;)
We LOVE you anyway so you must be doing something right!! :) Keep rocking ,keep smiling and everyone have A GREAT 2018!!!
Keep doing what you do bro great stuff
331Erock can I use this in my video 331Erock? I wanna use it for my New Years video
Happy New Year Sir!
As always you are the cutest metal head with your goofy smile while playing but now with you mouthing the backing vocals! dont ever change dude!
He's also mouthed Indiana Jones saying "I was the next man" when he did a video about the Indiana Jones series, Stormingmonkey.
It was this video that made me fall in love with him.
Are you a dude? Just asking, lol!
Everything is so much better when it meets metal - happy new year!
"Final Countdown meets metal"..' burrrrnnn!!!
The original song is Metal anyways.
Man am I happy to see this! My family has a tradition of playing The Final Countdown just before the Midnight Fireworks. Looks like I'm gonna be celebrating it alone this year but I'm gonna keep to the tradition alive, this time with your Metal cover!
Happy New Year!
happy new year dude/dudess
new New Years cover song to play as the year turns over, awesome metal mix and all done while wearing a batman tshirt! epic.
Man.
The way the countdown at the beginning hits right on the offbeat perfectly really satisfies me deep inside.
I love how happy you look when you play. It truly brings you so much joy. And all of us too.
The high school version of me just shed happy tears. You were my first metal channel subscription and still producing authentic and badass videos!
Holy shit that solo was no let down
sawyer turner are they ever?
As good as ever though this one was a little bit of a cheat as the original solo bridge on this song wasn't exactly pants.
Loved every bit. I especially loved how you managed to have a great original take on the solo yet still somehow make it work with the song keep up the great work. Happy New Year All!
Eric you totally rock! I love how you smile every time you play like you really do enjoy yourself in that moment. You are an outstanding talent. Rock on man🤘
Got to see Europe in Vegas a year & a 1/2 ago, it was a meet 'n' greet at the Hard Rock Cafe' AND MAN, those men put on one helluva' show. So after getting their autographs (from some of the nicest guys ever), we got to touch Joey Tempest's guitar, while he was playing - - their bassist also handed me a pick since we were in the front row. Such a good time, Wifey & I will never forget our best city vacation EVER. All HAIL Mr. John Leven (bass)!!! Cheers from Aurora, Colorado.
Gonna be playing this as loud as I can close to midnight.. neighbours absolutely hate any song with guitar work in it (especially metal) and the song is absolutely badass man! You've done alot of amazing work this year and I cannot wait to see what you do in 2018!... is it just me or has these past 18 years gone so fast?
you stick it to those stuck up neighbors! guitar work and metal music breeds a righteous life! due note though that u should be considerate and allow the neighbors the same curtsy (your choice)
Syed Sholok if you knew my neighbours you'd understand... but seeming you don't fuck off yeah
mr sholok id feel ok with that. it'd be better than the horrible r+b garbage rap music my basement neighbor chooses to blast in the middle of the day whenever he gets high or some nonsense. not all that type of music is trash just the garbled noise that he puts on.
fuck those neghboirs! they don't know good shit!
hes always happy in his songs but I got a feeling he wanted to play this one more than anything. dudes loving it
4:00 Absolutely gorgeous!!!
Can't believe how good you acutally are. Dosen't matter what you play.. It sounds perfect and it looks like it's so easy for you. Probably watched every video you made so far and loved everyone! Specially this one because of the solo. GREAT WORK!
Happy new year! Can't wait for 2015!
wait, *how long have I been frozen in carbonite?*
that's ok 2015 is when marty mcfly travelled back in time, just look him up since you're already in that time period :)
MostlyIrishCarGuy - *NOT LONG ENOUGH!!*
kevin sullivan jee thanks
Damn, time flies.
2015 will suck. We don't get hover boards
Just imagining this being played during the launch of the first manned BFR mission to Mars. Giant arrays of ground-based rocket engines tuned to make music throwing this song out for a hundred miles. Made me shed a tear.
How to end a perfect 2017
Or how to end shitty 2017. Fuck this year
I'd hardly call it fucking perfect.
MrMimlet no kidding 2017 sucked

This has always been one of the best proto-power metal songs. Thanks for this!
I always enjoy hearing a song being done differently, instrumental, slower or faster....gives the song a fresh sound.
Thanks....

One of my favorite songs. Well done, sir!
Great way to end the year
I'm proud of your skills ! Awesome, genuine and genius
To this day I've listened to so many versions of this metal cover and still this is my most favorite. ✌️
First off Dude you f*cking rock. Second by far your the most talented person I've seen on UA-cam. Third I love how you take songs that were already awesome and somehow make them way cooler. Some of my favorites are the Air wolf theme, punch-out theme, danger zone, this new one the final count down,etc All these great tunes i grew up on. THANK YOU so so much for sharing your amazing musical gift. Keep on Jamming and have a great 2018. I will continue enjoying all of your ...Meets music videos. P.S I would love to see you release some of this great music for purchase. I would definitely buy it.
I loved the part where you coulnd't help but start mouthing the lyrics. And the part where you switched guitars for the amazing solo.
Dude i cant believe i missed this! Great work man!
Well done, Eric! Thanks for your music and Happy New Year for you too ;)
First here. IT'S LIKE A PRIVATE CONCERT! You rock my casbah! Eric you are awesome!
Rock on, Erock! And Happy New Year!
Happy New Year Eric, looking forward to whatever you cook up next year!
been with you since the begining, happy New year bud, love ya!
Dude been watching you since the frozen metal one and you shall never ever ever get old your an absolute legend!! Love all your stuff man!!... keep up the good work!! You legend!! Xx
This has been my favorite song since I was little. I loved this. You are a legend.
One of the first songs I ever learned to play all the way through as a teen. Still one of my favorite solo's to play.. Of course I play it like Norum.. Don't have the chops to even come close to playing it like Erock, but still a fun song to play. And yes, Norum is an incredible talent. There's a video of him playing live and Paul Gilbert is on the side of the stage studying him.. That says something..
What an epic song to end the year awesome as always
Love watching your videos.
Awesome job!
Have a Happy, Healthy and prosperous New Year!
Wish i could give you two thumbs up, one for the song, and one for the Batman shirt. Great rendition of a song that I grew up with. Happy New Year E, see you in 2018.
Hey there, from five years in the future! This is a bloody amazing cover!
Massive Europe fan here, and Norum is BRILLIANT! Thanks so much for this, and I wish you a wonderful 2018
Beautifully...melodic melodies...cheers...
You are also underrated ! its a joy to see and hear you playing !!
Happy New Year and thx for your music! From Russia with love!!!!
Dude, no words. So amazing!
Thanks for the great year! Can't wait to see what's in store for 2018 xD
Never cared for this song til I just saw your vid. Your arrangement or 'variation on a theme' haha was/is spot on! Love that you are having fun and don't take yourself so seriously like a lot of rockers do. Just proves you got what it takes!
Good example of how to take something that is already awesome into something even more awesome. FUCK. YES. Hope that in 2018 you keep rocking as much as you always do man! I salute you! \m/
I still come back to listen to this cover sometimes. It's amazing.
This is such an underrated talent.
Happy new year, everyone! Drunk af

It's not impossible if you believe in it. And if you look at the screen for an hour before replying.
Um dos melhores coveres de metal que tem no UA-cam, muito foda combinou perfeitamente com a música original, a parte final fechou com chave de ouro então. Cade os BRs apreciadores de música boa ? 04/02/2018 aqui.
Happy new year! Keep up the awesome work and may your metal be strong through 2018! \m/
Dude that was awesome! An amazing song just got a lot more better... Cheers :)
Thank you for the year long entertainment, Erock, looking forward to listening all your lovely stuff next year as well ^^ Have a Happy New Year!
The best Final Countdown cover I ever listened to. And I've already listened to a bunch. What a good 2018 beginning !
