If there's anything that is close to the Swedish soul, it's melancholy and that's what this song is all about, and many places all over Sweden are mentioned where people feel melancholic, and Swedes in general can relate very deeply to that. Also Jerry Williams who almost never sang in Swedish really shocked his audience with this emotional live version of the Ted Ström song that already had been a hit with Monica Törnell a couple of years earlier. So the song was very famous, but the audience did not expect the even back in 1990 legendary rock singer Jerry Williams to interpret it, and when he did it with such skills and passion it was a sure hit, even if it does not sound like a typical commercial hit tune. Thanks for another great video, always a treat to see your reaction videos.
I have a feeling that this type of "melancholic AOR" was at its peak in the late 80s. I'm thinking of Eva Dahlgren, Marie Fredriksson, Tommy Nilsson, Niklas Strömstedt, Freda, Ratata and others, all of whom made it to the top of the charts.
You should also checkout Jerry William's John Lennon cover "working class hero".He had so much stage presance intensity and belive in what he was doing.
Fun fact: Jerry was a really good dog handler with several dogs on the highest level of obedience and protection. It was always a treat to hear his voice on the competitions.
Fun fact: Jerry spelade ihop med Chuck Berry, som också var en av hans största inspirationer, redan på 60-talet. Eller som han själv skulle uttryckt det, han "lira med Chucken".
He has captured the soul of Sweden, how we can feel, what we don't acknowledge, what is hard and tough, and just about being a Swede at times, and through time, in generations, specially at winter.
"Vintersaga" is not really representative of Jeryy, but the live version is one of his strongest performances in his late years and was very popular with his fans. You should hear the Monical Törnell version for comparison, which has a rock steady tempo with a lot of synths, to create the same eerie winter melancholy feeling but in a different way. This is more an intrpretation than a cover, actually. And this wasn't all the verses..
Oh and the main point is actually the lyrics, that "will" send tingles dwn the spine and a tear in the eye of every. single. swede. over 35, because they capture the "old" sweden melancholy to a level of relatedness not may other things can. There is something for veeryone to recognise and feel in this song. Every swede know *exactly" what is it like to be freezing in queue for the "stadspub" (the one open pub in in a small town), and exactly how a "tradare i snörök" looks. It is a summary of how winter feels, that evoke a mysterious feeling and "you just know" what they're talking about. We all know how "kärleken får leva mella nattskiftet och drömmen" (love lives betwen te night shift and the dream, fueled by cheap wine). This is the music of the old working class. by 1990 it was nostalgia for a time gone by already. It would make 16 year old me long for times gone by, and my parents cry. its magic. Also, its a recent volvo commercial, (amande bergman version) with really nice imagery. THe Jerry Williams version lacks the driving synth riff of the Monica T and Amanda Bergman versions though the guitars are awesome. You really should compare all three.
Jag har faktiskt aldrig hört Williams version. Jag älskade Törnells version när jag hörde den på radion (gud, vad hon lyfte det från originalet) men Bergmans och Linnros version lyfte den bortom allt annat.
This is an interesting cover that I never heard. It’s not a swedish classic. The earlier version sung by Monica Törnell (in 1984) is the real swedish classic version of this song. Just saying.
Freddie Wadling - Blott en dag! In one video you requested some swedish religous songs, and this is one of the most well known ones. It’s a psalm, so it’s often sung by a choir or the congregation in church. It’s been recorded countless of times, but Freddie Wadlings version is hauntingly beautiful. He is also a very interesting swedish artist that you definetly should check out!! You won’t be disappointed.
Bra val och reaktion! Svenskt vemod och svårmod = Den svenska folksjälen. Jag har aldrig tänkt på att låten påminner om filmmusik med den krypande och lite skrämmande känslan, som snö har, men du har definitivt en poäng :)
Everyone thinks Sweden is all about over produced pop. (I blame mello for that 😜) But “det svenska vemodet” is even bigger I’d say, for better or worse 🙂
Great song! Can really recommend the version made by Amanda Bergman for a Volvo commercial. The video and song is really powerful together, just don’t think of it as a commercial haha!
Nu när du är inne på "Jerka" (Jerry), så måste du kolla in hans version a Working class hero, live. leta upp den som är 6,36 lång. (Postad: 3 juni 2010 )
The song was originally thought as a theme song for a Tv-program about swedish geography and winter. The program never got made, the song though was too good to not be published. All other artists lack the truest winter chill, this one does, even in summer it makes you shiver.
Never heard it too. It’s an interesting cover / interpretation of the song Vintersaga. But with so many swedes never heard it this version of “vintersaga” is not a Swedish classic. The song ”Vintersaga” is a true swedish classic though - but with Monica Törnell from 1984. That version is widespread known. And I think Jonathan should do a reaction to that more famous version too.
Second stanza: In Malmö, the fog is scratched by the sirens of the ferries And on the other side of the strait, the world begins. A lone Volvo toils against the headwind on the Tjörnbron The cinema in Pajala offers "Deliverance" The Lapland night train roars like a wild beast through the night The farms turn off their lights A storm-whipped Marstrand prays it´s Pater Noster Stockholm city sways in its intoxication That's when the great sadness rolls in And an icy, grey-cold wind blows from the sea.
We do often like folkvisor. Jerry had before that had many years on top, and with all rights could make this beautifull folkvisa. I hope there are coming other songs with Jerry. even covers.
This is more like a bizarre extreme version of the hit song from Monica Thörnell who had a big hit with it. You should have heard that first. Extremely beautiful work with the synths in that one.
This is pure Swedish "saudade", and I think the great lyrics, not necessarily rhyming poetry, and Jerry's feeling and powerful voice is what makes it so good. Ted Ström wrote and composed, Monica Törnell recorded a very good version.
I'm always forgetting, pro reactor tip: After you pause press the left arrow button so you go back 5 sec because everytime you pause a part gets cut and sometimes it really ruins the flow of the song. Your reactions look so pro compared to when you started. I usually hate this kind of videos where they put pictures matching the lyrics, they are usually terrible BUT since the lyric describes some very specific places I think it was a great choice for you, you got a tour of Sweden at the same time.
This is just something i wanna put out here in the comment section. My grandfather is actually Ted Ström. I would highly recommend you to listen to some of his songs:).
Earlier you said one time, that you didn´t really understand the sadness in a lot of the songs. You didn´t get the "vemod". Hopefully you get it now! ;-)
Och Amanda Bergmans version är 👌 Antar att folk gillar den för att den beskriver Sverige, från norr till söder. Svenskar kallas väl alltid lite tysta o vemodiga, o kanske gillar vi att nån sätter ord på det?
I would love to see your reaction to another swedish legend. Who is still alive. I´m talking about Ulf Lundell. His greatest hit is "Öppna landskap" from 1984 (I think). This song got so popular that many people wanted to replace our national anthem with "Öppna landskap". But he has been very productive so there are hundreds of other songs to listen to as well. He is inspired mostly by Bob Dylan , according to himself. But he is also influaenced by Neil Young and Bruce Springsteen. You might like him!
That's the Swedish "folksjäl" for ya! I think that's why it's so big. You need to put it in context: You are bone tired, fighting your way home against the icy cold wind blowing sleet in your face. It is february, it's been dark for 9 months and you will never see the sun again. You have worked 12 hours nightshift at the factory for minimum wage and the only thing you have to look forward to is 2 weeks of summer heat before it gets cold and dark again. We all know it, hate it and feel it in our bones. 😉😂
BTW If you do this by J Williams from Börsen, why not do 'Working class hero' the best version of that song if you ask me. It is in English though but it is so good.
I agree. Totally different from the original. When John Lennon sang it he sounded ironic and almost mocking. To Jerry who was a convinced socialist the song meant something else.
No offence men... Är verkligen 17 år det bästa låtvalet om man ska lyfta fram en klassiker av Veronica Maggio? Kan absolut förstå om det är din favoritlåt med henne, men det är väl inte direkt en av hennes största hits? Låtens högsta listplacering var nummer 19, och den är inte heller en av hennes mest spelade på Spotify. Ska man välja en "banger" med Maggio är det väl snarare låtar som "Jag kommer", "Snälla bli min" eller "Välkommen in"?
@@jimmy60893 Tar inte åt mig alls. Gillar låten som spelats en och annan gång på radio. Tycker man kan skriva in vad man tycker om själv och hoppas på att den når Jonathan. Det finns ju en stor chans att han även reagerar på dom andra hitsen i framtiden om han inte redan hört dom genom sin tjej. Musik är till för att delas.
@@linusdagerfallvinna9265 Var inte meningen att du skulle "ta åt dig" på det sättet. Min poäng är bara att klassiker och vad man själv gillar är två olika saker. Mycket möjligt att 17 år är en bättre låt ur någon aspekt, men vad den här kanalen handlar om är ju svenska klassiker, alltså stora hits, låtar som verkligen gjort avtryck eller hur man nu ska definiera det. Hoppas du kan förstå min poäng, vill inte dissa ditt låtval eller vara elak, men jag tycker att folk alltför ofta rekommenderar låtar som helt enkelt inte är klassiker, vilket blir lite konstigt i en sådan här kanal. Sedan är det inte hela världen, och jag förstår att du blir glad för att Jonathan ska lyssna på "din" låt, men som sagt, jag tycker att det finns flera låtar som är mer givna Maggio-klassiker, that's all.
@@jimmy60893 Det finns absolut flera mer givna Maggio-klassiker. Var dock några andra som också ville se en reaktion på denna låten så det blir inte bara en reaktionsvideo för mig. Vad spelar det för roll egentligen? Man klickar väl ändå bara på det man bryr sig om. Ha en bra dag.
Den här versionen påminner mig lite om Phil Collins' "In the air tonight". Men det här är en cover, och ganska otypisk för Jerry Williams stil. Det hade varit bättre att ta Monica Thörnells original-version som är den som oftast spelas på radio. Inget fel på den här versionen dock. :-)
Denna är inte typisk för Jerrys musikstil. Han var mest inne på 50's rock'n'roll eller rockabilly som vi säger numera. Där märks hans förebilder mer. Och om man öser rock'n'roll på engelska på 50-60-talet så skaffar man sig förstås ett amerikanskt klingande artistnamn.
+1 to all comments below. The Monica Thörnell version of this may be better. Atleast gives me a lot more swedish chills than this one even if this is also great :) Monica Thörnell version was what was played on the radio. Anyho... Enbodiment of swedish melancholy. Please revisit it ;)

Pleas please lyssna till orginalet Ted Ström..............och Monika Törnell har också gjert en version som är mycket bättre än denna. Enligt min mening är just Jerrys den sämsta av alla ...............
@@linabing9181 Oh the song itself beside the lyric is great...especially the original with Monica Törnell. Just to get a perception of what a classic song is to you...give an example then? Because most swedes I know would definitely define this one as a swedish classic..
The Jerry Williams version sucks so bad. Even the Ted's original blows it away. I'd even go so far to say that the volvo commercial version is better than Jerry Williams. But what you'd really like to hear is the Monica Törnell's Vintersaga.
Heavier version by Ultima Thule ua-cam.com/video/tHzBcTTVMuo/v-deo.html. Translation. Swedish places not translated. A coastal tanker stomping through the drift ice in Kvarken. A training session at Ullevi in the mist. The border station in Torneå, an old lady on a kick-sledge. Landsort lighthouse where the blizzard moves in. Dense snow falling on the slopes of Mariaberget. Hot and sweaty at Statt in Härnösand. A truck in the white-out between Kiruna and the far side gasping light in Visby harbour That's when the great sadness rolls in And an icy, grey-cold wind blows from the sea. In Malmö, the fog is scratched by the sirens of the ferries And on the other side of the narrow strait the world begins. A lone Volvo toils against the headwind on the Tjörnbron The cinema in Pajala offers "Deliverance" The Lapland willow roars like a wild animal through the night The farms turn off their lights A storm-whipped Marstrand prays his Pater Noster Stockholm city sways in its intoxication That's when the great sadness rolls in And an icy, grey-cold wind blows from the sea. Truck stop in Docksta in the shadow of the highway An overdose at Skärholmen station Snow covered farms somewhere in Österlen And the drunkenness grows at Momma's pub Frozen thirst in the queue to the city pub in Luleå Frozen dreams in the monarchy Love must live between the night shift and the dream Love runs on cheap wine That's when the great sadness rolls in And an icy, grey-cold wind blows from the sea. That's when the great sadness rolls in And an icy, grey-cold wind blows from the sea.

Vintersaga är nog en del av vår kollektiva själ, i alla fall för oss infödingar som är lite äldre
Älskar vemod🥀
Tack Jonathan, gillar din kanal🙏
The song is about the hardship of the Scandinavian long dark winter, presenting snippets and images of the struggle.

Fun fact: Jerry was a really good dog handler with several dogs on the highest level of obedience and protection. It was always a treat to hear his voice on the competitions.
In the lyrics, the movie that was mentioned, ”Den sista färden”, is the Swedish title for the 1973 movie ”Deliverance”, in case you didn't know.
.. and it was played in my small home village.. Pajala 👍🏼
This song always gives me the shivers. It could be the national anthem..

Håll mitt hjärta med Björn Skifs hade varit skoj. Kan inte se att du gjort något med honom, men jag kan ha missat det 😊
OMG you must listen to Magnum Bonum!!! Just...do it!
Anna-Lena Löfgren - Lyckliga Gatan
Jag tycker du ska lyssna på Älska mig med Ainbusk (Josefin Nilsson).
Try Woking class hero with Jerry (the sweaty live version).
national anthem
Alina Devecerski With the song: flytta på dig
Thanks for the suggestion but I've heard that one
@@JonathanRollinssthlm305 ok too bad. Thanks for the work you do love the reaction on Pierre Isacsson - då går jag ner till min källare especilly. I show it to my friends and they also love it with the deep voice surprise 😂😂
"Börsen" is not a place, it's a famous restaurant and music stage in Stockholm, with history ties back to the 1600's. sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamburger_B%C3%B6rs
Also known as a place. A place to go, a place to see a show etc
@@linabing9181 Yeah but I perceived Jonathan as meaning a village or town, so wanted to clarify, well meaning. If he means he wants to do a show at Hamburger Börs, by all means, atfer corona why not?
@@grossteilfahrer Hihi, ni är gulliga när ni skriver på engelska till varandra. Varför gör ni så? Det är så knäppt att folk överhuvudtaget skriver på engelska här. Jonathan förstår ju svenska.
@@d.e8474 foreigners might see this and who cares, it's not harder to write in english.
@@d.e8474 Because it's polite to the channel owner who might have viewers outside of Sweden.
But its very cute you don't understand that.

Vill man ha vemod, lyssna på Monica Törnell: Vintersaga. Känslan i maj. Heden.
This is how we should remember Jerry! ua-cam.com/video/KLRRMclh-UQ/v-deo.html
Did I tell you is tha jam
Å, vad jag saknar Jerry Williams....man kan ju faktiskt beskriva Sverige så här....det är ju en sida av det....gör vädret oss vemodiga?
Du bör lyssna på Monica Törnell och hennes Vintersaga
En lektion i svensk geografi.
Jo, med viss modifikation. Finns faktafel i den. Det finns ett mat- och fikaställe i Docksta som man kanske kan kalla tradarfik. Men ingen motorväg där. E4, ja men inte motorväg.
Du måste höra denna låten med Monica Törnell. Vintersaga. Detta var den största hiten, mycket populär på sin tid. ua-cam.com/video/ZZSl_IaIQOA/v-deo.html&ab_channel=57o
Du måste lyssna på 4 sekunder med Magnus Uggla, du kommer inte att ångra det, jag lovar. Kolla samtidigt på den officiella musikvideon.
Instrumenten gråter skriker och gnäller som ett älskat vemod 😅
Tycker Monica Törnells version är stämningsfullare!
"Börsen" = Hamburger Börs i Stockholm
Ulf Lundell, "Jag trivs bäst i öppna landskap".Typical swedish hit, that many people wanted to replace the national anthem with.
Gillar den bättre med Monica Törnell
Svenska vinter själen
You used the wrong video! This is the live performance.

I guess it is hard for an American to comprehend if you cant understand the lyrics. There are better versions of this song as well.
You should react to "Björn Rosenström - Pojkarna som busar" or "Het"
GES - Hon är min
Pleas please lyssna till orginalet Ted Ström..............och Monika Törnell har också gjert en version som är mycket bättre än denna. Enligt min mening är just Jerrys den sämsta av alla ...............
Monica Thörnell gör den mycket bättre
Songs like these are nostalgia, they are not classics bc they are good.
speak for urself...
@@dansmacabre8511 I am. But it still true. Just because a the lyrics are familiar and makes you feel fussy it doesn't mean it's a clasdic.
@@linabing9181 Oh the song itself beside the lyric is great...especially the original with Monica Törnell. Just to get a perception of what a classic song is to you...give an example then? Because most swedes I know would definitely define this one as a swedish classic..
The Jerry Williams version sucks so bad. Even the Ted's original blows it away.
I'd even go so far to say that the volvo commercial version is better than Jerry Williams.
But what you'd really like to hear is the Monica Törnell's Vintersaga.
Not too fond of this cover, Törnells version is much better IMHO
Den här versionen är alldeles för långsam, både originalartisten Ted Ström och Mimikry har gjort betydligt bättre versioner!
Heavier version by Ultima Thule ua-cam.com/video/tHzBcTTVMuo/v-deo.html.
Translation. Swedish places not translated.
A coastal tanker stomping through the drift ice in Kvarken.
A training session at Ullevi in the mist.
The border station in Torneå, an old lady on a kick-sledge.
Landsort lighthouse where the blizzard moves in.
Dense snow falling on the slopes of Mariaberget.
Hot and sweaty at Statt in Härnösand.
A truck in the white-out between Kiruna and the far side
gasping light in Visby harbour
That's when the great sadness rolls in
And an icy, grey-cold wind blows from the sea.
In Malmö, the fog is scratched by the sirens of the ferries
And on the other side of the narrow strait the world begins.
A lone Volvo toils against the headwind on the Tjörnbron
The cinema in Pajala offers "Deliverance"
The Lapland willow roars like a wild animal through the night
The farms turn off their lights
A storm-whipped Marstrand prays his Pater Noster
Stockholm city sways in its intoxication
That's when the great sadness rolls in
And an icy, grey-cold wind blows from the sea.
Truck stop in Docksta in the shadow of the highway
An overdose at Skärholmen station
Snow covered farms somewhere in Österlen
And the drunkenness grows at Momma's pub
Frozen thirst in the queue to the city pub in Luleå
Frozen dreams in the monarchy
Love must live between the night shift and the dream
Love runs on cheap wine
That's when the great sadness rolls in
And an icy, grey-cold wind blows from the sea.
That's when the great sadness rolls in
And an icy, grey-cold wind blows from the sea.
