I am very happy to present you to something I’ve been wanting to do for some time now.
Some of you know that I was diagnosed with leukemia earlier this year. It was the start of a life changing journey full of perspective and it guided me to the core of who I am.
It really made me realize that making and releasing music is one of the most important things in my life and it has never been more important to me. So that’s what I’m going to do. I am very happy to present you to my version of Black Sabbath - Headless Cross.
Headless cross has been one of the warm up songs backstage before shows for a couple of years. Is this the meanest riff ever written?

Look through the people, and on through the mist
To the hill of the headless cross
Where all witches meet, on a night such as this,
And the power of darkness is host
They come face to face, eye to eye, soul to soul,
With an Angel that fell from the sky
Borne on the air, are the screams and the wails
Of the masses appointed to die
Listen for the feet as they pound the land to a tune of thunder
Watch as the legions ride again to a fate of death or torture,
At the headless cross, at the headless cross
How do you feel, when the locks refuse the key
And the master is calling your name,
Does the luck of the charm, really keep you from harm
Does the talisman protect you from pain
Listen for the feet as they pound the land to a tune of thunder
Watch as the legions ride again to a fate of death or torture,
At the headless cross, at the headless cross
From the first evil night, when a black flash of light
Cut the crucifix half to the ground
There's no escaping from the power of Satan
For a people so brave and so proud
Listen for the feet as they pound the land to a tune of thunder
Watch as the legions ride again to a fate of death or torture,
At the headless cross, at the headless cross
At the headless cross, at the headless cross
Thank you so much for all your amazing comments and great song suggestions. Keep 'em coming. I am very honored!
Otroligt bra Erik !!!! Kan du också göra en cover på Anno Mundi om du nu gillar den låten ?
Super awesome Erik !
Perfect vocals ❤
Skulle vara så coolt om du kunde göra en ny cover på Travelin' Band som du gjorde i Så ska det låta! Du gjorde den så j*kla bra men den finns ingenstans på nätet så man kan lyssna på den igen☹️
How about: DIO Rainbow in the dark ?
Most Sabbath fans forget or hate the Tony Martin era, he’s one of the most unappreciated and underrated metal singers of all time. The Sabbath Martin albums are unbelievable. Erik’s vocals here are spot on! Incredible performance, incredible song! 🤘
I dont 😊
Agree ♥️
way better than Ozzy
I totally agree‼️‼️‼️
Anno Domini boxset is out soon
I'm 51 and have been a HUGE fan of Skid Row since the 80's. You, my friend, are the perfect replacement of Bach. You do an outstanding Job as the front man. Congrats.
I was just thinking about this very fact. the height, tone, intensity and colour of the sound, makes Erik stands at the very level of the metal gods of all times such as Halford, Dio, and obviously, S. Bach. (which I'm a fan since the 80's) Hardly ever a cover overtakes the original, this is the case.
ha h,I knew Baz back in the day playing I Toronto, larry's hideaway in a band called kid wikkid, I met him in Peterborough just before he moved to Toronto.
Wow, thank you!
@ You are Better then " BAZ " You my friend are the new path for Metal 👍👍👍
Skid row only with Sebastian Bach
This is one of the best covers of any song ever👍
I agree. Erik is awesome and a really nice guy too
100% agree! This gives me Chills, This was always one of my favorite songs but this version is on another level. Amazing Singer Erik!
It sounds like he grew up on pop
I don't agree. Respectfully that is. He sounds like a pop singer to me actually. He's a good singer, but just not my kind of sound.
Welcome to the UA-cam stage, brother. You're an inspiration. Let's sing together sometime.
ohhhh yeahhh pleaseeeee 💐❤️
Dan, Love your version of "Toss a Coin to the Witcher" and "Hello." I would love to see you and Erik perform a duet.
Thanks man. Ready when you are :-)
@ That would awesome🤘🏼Two awesome singers❤️Hugs&Love
Shit that would be awsom
Erik is a beast. He can sing anything with such perfection
Thanks for the support Rod!
@ Oh man, we thank YOU for delivering us such quality and power. It's a true honour, for a 44 year-old rocker like me, to listen to you singing.
Erik is massively talented. Skid Row couldn't have picked a better singer! This is a very difficult song to sing and he totally nails it.
Thanks David!
One of the best singers covering the best vocalist from Sabbath!!!!!!!!! Amazing job Erik!!!!!!!!
💯
First off I think it's so great that you are aware and like the Tony Martin era of Black Sabbath. It's sad that that period is overlooked or looked down upon by many I think. Second you did an awesome job at tackling that song hit all those crazy notes and with gusto. Rock On!
Tony Martin era is great!
This voice is the sole reason why I´m attending a Skid Row concert again. Amazing!
Can’t understand how this is better than the original. Tony is fantastic but the production and vocal quality here is sublime. Blown away.
WTF? , that's not better than the original. Shut up man.
Sorry bro u cant its better than original impossible Tony Martin is Tony Martin like father is father...
Its half tone higher than original version. Both are amazing
@@yahyaagainstoppression6211 Tony Martin have never sang the highest notes in this song live. The studio version is perfect though;)
@@samuelkarlberg7773 dear bro always be different from studio to live but will go to original studio impossible smbdy will compare it..Tony Martin's best albums only 3 eternal idol, headless cross, TYR..others to rubbish
I've seen this about 10,000 times and never got tired of it.
You're too kind Rika! Thank you so much. I didn't see this until now, it's been a bit busy! Much love.
Dude.........This is just just just......i don't even know what.....As an old Sabbath fan i can't say anything else than this is beyond awesome! Your voice fits this like a glove and we can all see the emotion and passion that you have while sing this. All and all this is AFAIK THE greatest version of this song ever!
Tony Martin would be highly impressed ,one of my all time favourites ❤ you nailed it 😮
This guy is beyond human! He reminds me of Glenn Hughes in the way that you can’t explain how a voice like that can come out of a human body… one day he will be 70 years old and still singing at this level.. guys like him are saving hard rock and metal! ❤
What the hell! This is ridiculous how good this is!!!!
This is an epic cover of one of my favorite Sabbath songs! All I can say is damn dude, you nailed this! \m/
Absolutely Killer !!
Toni Iommi , Tony Martin and Erik Grönvall , just the BEST OF THE BEST 👏💥🤛
You're the best singer in rock this generation has seen. Absolutely phenomenal 🤯 so glad you've started this channel, the world needs your voice in our lives! 😍
Haven’t u heard of Dina julisic then
@@hossys10 he's good, but there's this magic that Erik has that is unmatched. More unique sounding too
Bloody hell! This is absolutely insane!!!
This is why the Tony Martin era of Sabbath was fucking awesome and incredible!
Another Murdered Classic Tony Martin wherever you are you got to hear this. Erik I remember when each of these tracks you covered were first released bless you Headless Cross,Hollowed Be Thy Name and 18 and Life brother best cover tracks ever.
How about ... "Tonight I'm falling" by TNT. I'd like to hear your take on Tony Harnell. Get well soon! :-)
The best Black Sabbath song. And the best album too.
That Voice! My Request is "Superstitious" by Europe
Great one! Would be great to see Dave takimg that beautiful Kee Marcello solo too!
Choosing this Black Sabbath song and doing it this well is something within the reach of very few.
How the hell can there be only 38 thousand subscribers to this channel. Wtf has happened to the world ?
This is what Skid Row and us fans have been waiting for; Erik, your voice sounds amazing, and your energy on stage is electrifying. We saw your performance at the MID STATE FAIR on July 25th, and we're blown away; you never missed a beat, and your humble words of happiness to be there, on stage, continues to solidify your spot in Rock n Roll History. Cheers to your dreams coming true!!!
You are one of the best vocalists EVER in my opinion. You were the voice that won me over on MORC & without that voice I'm going to have a difficult time adjusting. 🖤
I know it's like a year since you wrote this but finally all these comments are showing up when I filter on comments from members. Thank you Ashlyn for your incredible support and kind words! You are amazing.
OUT-FuRkIn-STANDING, I realize I am 2 years behind but Holy Crap! Your passion singing this song shows! You KILLED IT! Should have been yours. You brought it to a Whole Nutha Level from Black Sabbath. Excellent Job Erik and the band and thanks for sharing. All I can say is "HOLY SHIT"!
I'm sure you already know (but I'm not sure many others watching this would know) you're singing this a half step HIGHER than the original, which is insane!!!
Good work, and I like that your highs actually have heat in them, not a lot of singers do that these days, usually people will go super clean when they go high.
You have a different voice than Tony Martin (it's good to sound like yourself), more metal, which is super cool in it's own way, very modern. Also, you have really healthy technique. This is a better cover than others I've seen, great work!
Plz keep this guy (Erik ) in the band forever
He’s the best
Stunning version of a vocal masterpiece. Never heard a cover done so well of one of my favorite songs. Congrats Erik! As it is evident, really nothing can stop you, so, yes keep making music and kicking ass with your amazing voice!
Ok, pero tú no le produzcas nada, vale? Que pareces el Mourinho del aor
@@fernandofelipe2124 I don’t understand completely what you mean but I have only the highest admiration for Erik. And this song just proves it again, if it ever needed to be reaffirmed:-)
@@delvecchioalessandro joder alejandro picha, usa un traductor!!!
Por cierto, te recomiendo un excelente cantante español que te va a causar sensación: JORDI CASTILLA
@@fernandofelipe2124 Te dijo que no entiende qué quisiste decir, no lo que escribiste. Por cierto yo tampoco lo entendí. Que querés decir con "el Mourinho del AOR"?
Thank you very much!!
Best cover of a Black Sabbath song I've ever heard, amazing vocals and great solo too.
How about whitesnake, still of the night? Hell of a song and you would rock it
yesssss
I have heard some versions now. Found out how hard this song is to sing - yours is the best!! (except of the original ofcourse)
I was a massive fan of the Tony Martin era black Sabbath this was an awesome cover Erik you did it spot on 👌
...what a Voice...what a Talent...unbelieveable...juste great...and impossible to do it better!
One of the best Vocals of the "newer Generation"!...take care Erik,God bless you!
Oh man, that was Crazy….Masterclass!!! Tony Martin would be proud of you all!!! Keep on rockin’ in a free world! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
A High Tenor with no early bridging. Rare and very, very good.
when i heard this song for the first time in 1989 i was only 15 years old.it was incredible, a new black sabbath record, a spectacular song with Tony Martin on vocals.
today it seems even more incredible, you resurrected this song in an incredible way, congratulations, you are a great, great, spectacular vocalist and the musicians who play with you are also great.
Incredible voice man, the real deal there!
No-one mentioning how killer the guitarists are too 👌
I don't know how many times i have seen this one, at least 10 times now. Amaizing performance it is!
Sooooo good!!! You are the reason I joined YT. Not a social media person at all otherwise. You are the best!!! And so happy about the good news re your health. I wish you, Ninni and your son the very best!!!
WHAT IN THE NAME OF... I can't believe you did that. Thank you SO much for your incredible generosity!
Whew, you got it! First time doing this so was keeping my fingers crossed it was going to you. It is just a very small sign of my appreciation for the way you treat your fans and especially for your unbelievable talent!!!
SO GOOD!!!!!
Thank you sir!
Não imaginava te ver num vídeo como esse, Rodrigo Polesso! Que legal! Suas dicas são valiosas pra mim!
This is absolutely PHENOMENAL. One day I would love to hear you sing live (I live an hour from Philadelphia, PA). You are definitely one of my all-time favorite vocalists. Just amazing!
Great performance! Dave Dalone's solo was smokin'.
Love this song! Glad someone is covering a Sabbath tune from the Tony Martin era. Killer!!!
Jesus Christ this kid or man is Amazing I wonder how long he’s been speaking English that he can sing so just wild my god I’m listening to him as I write this and I keep changing my words cuz he’s just so intense
Erik Gronwall Does An Absolutely Awesome Great Version Of Black Sabbath Song Headless Cross It Is Absolutely Awesome Great Outstanding Straight Up Kick Ass Rock N Roll And Totally Rocks This Song Completely Kicks Major Ass And Needs To Be Fully Cranked Up All The Way To Full Maximum Volume. 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Awesome! I'd love to hear you take on Devil and Daughter from the same album, it's probably my favorite song off of it!
or Nightwing!
Also, one of your partners-in-crime Dave D, blows off a nice guitar solo. Technically it's a masterpiece as I see it, but it's the "hang" and the harmony changes towards the end that really lifts it. Proof of sensitivity, musical maturity and inventivness. Hats off!
To be fair, your voice sounds pretty close to Tony Martin's in this. Excellent job!
He sounds better than Martin. Amazing!
Absolutely espectacular! This song is one of my favorite metal pieces. You could sing with your identity without missing Martin's flavors. AMAZIN DUDE! you rock! Beautiful voice
Stunning version….. How about trying ‘Intuition’ by TNT or ‘Skydiving’ by Shy?
YEAH PLEASE, do Intuition!
One of my all time favorite Sabbath songs. And WOW!!!!!!! The execution of the vocal is STELLAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can’t stop playing this 🤘🏻how’s about Iron Maiden The Trooper 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
Would love to hear you do anything from Malmsteen's Odyssey album
I've recently discovered your singing and think that you have a huge career ahead of you! I am really enjoying your covers and will be looking for any downloads that are available! I know this was posted a while ago but in case you still check the comments, I would love to hear you do a cover of something by Steelheart!! I think you could nail it, maybe even better than the original singer! Good luck with Skid Row, I'll be buying the new album soon! I can't wait to hear what you bring us next!!
Watch Swedish idol..old one this was the best ever season..he was 17 or 18 at the time
I would love to hear you singing Dreams in the Dark - Badlands.
F*ck yeah!! I was thinking the same song - Erik would kill it!
No, Seasons or Hard Driver would bang harder imo
@@gmanohio1 agreed it'd be killer, great idea
Det finns tyvärr inget bättre ord än BÄST!!! Ni är helt otroligt bra!! Vilken röst Erik! Välkommen tillbaka! Har tänkt på dig som alla andra drabbade i sjukdommar. Postiva energiner ska du få och ha styrkekramar.❤💥
Hi Erik
I’ve been following you from the start in the Swedish idol and still doing it today. I think your voice is amazing and I’m a big fan.
I’ve got really sad when I heard about your sickness and I hope that everything goes well.
My suggestion for a song is something from Iron Maiden, either Run to the hills, Aces high or Hallowed be thy name.
Take care and keep on rockin. 🤘
//Oscar from Sweden 😊 🇸🇪
PS. I’m also a singer and love rock music. How can I improve my voice and my singing technique?
Do you have any tips?
Hey! It's pretty weird but I found this comment from one year ago when I filtered on comments from members. So thank you so much Oscar for you support and for being a member! If you haven't seen it yet I did Run to the hills a couple of weeks ago!
Have you checked out any of the vlogs? I mention a few techniques that I use in those episodes :)
Hi
I saw the cover of Run to the hills and it was AWESOME!
I think I have seen you mentioned it in some of the vlogs I while back, I have to go back and look it up. 😊
Keep on rocking and the good work. 🤘
@ 2:14 I got chills! Excellent cover! Great vocals and great guitar work by Dave Dalone!
Esse maluco é um animal cantando pqp. Que voz e que pegada ele também é um excelente front Man.
Erik é foda demais mano, meu vocalista preferido, ainda espero que o proximo album solo dele (se tiver) que ele faça um pro heavy metal, vai ser alucinante!!
Erik grönwall um mito 😎👌
Eric you and Dino should do a collab . You guys are next generation of metal singers hands down it's nice to see there's Hope in this business
Amazing... don't u ever stop singing... (Kiss - I'll fight hell to hold you)
YES!!!! This would kick some serious ass. Paul during his peak, Erik would kill on this…
Amazing, Erik! Hope you can come to Brazil with Skid, or solo.
We love so much hard rock and heavy metal!!!
Awesome 🤘🏼🤘🏼 I'm curious to hear your voice in Forever Young (Tyketto)
Second this.
I could listen to you sing all day. You are by far the best rock singer on earth at this moment!!!! Keep your voice healthy and you’ll be a rock legend. Seriously.
Damn dude!! I had goosebumps the entire song. Incredible!!!!!! What a voice man.
Never been heavy metal and the words not my style but buddy your voice coming out of that body is super natural...what a God given talent. I again am in awe after finding you tonight on you tube and playing song after song just getting my mind blown at this massive massive voice!!! Again WOW. Nothing to say but MIND BLOWN!
😘
One of my favourite Sabbath song, you killed it and your lyrical range does it justice. Great to see you in Burlington, Ontario ripping up the stage and giving Skid row a fresh energy, but also slaying those songs and keeping them real.
Stay well you deserve much more recognition than you get, hope to see you again in the future
Hey Man! I am Brazilian, congratulations, thanks for Stills live skid row!!!!
Tony Martin, watch out!!! 😂😂 Erik please give it a try with A Dangerous Meeting from Mercyful Fate!! It would be amazing to hear it in your voice!! 😁😁
I finally know how the song should sound! The best covers are usually unique but this one is above the original song by far! Erik is from another planet!
This is better than the original!
I believe no one sings better than the original. Erik did a great job and he is top tier but the respect to the original is a must.
So incredible dude, can't stop listen to it. Awsome job!!! Would be incredible to see from you Anno Mundi!!
Någon tidig Queensryche hade varit kul. Typ Take Hold of the Flame.
...to difficult to reach Geoff Tate, believe me...😉
Erik, just heard you for the first time tonight as Skid Rows new singer, and im blown away , I have not heard anyone come close to Bachs vocals and you do it effortlessly....you are a pefect fit...Now make some killer skid tunes Ive been waiting on since Sub human!!! THANK YOU
You are one of my favorite singer!!! Your voice is amazing, and we need definitely more like this!!! Good to see you' re back 😎🤘🏼
Cool that you wanted to cover something from the Tony Martin period. He was a very underrated singer, which is so unfair, he made great albums and great songs with Black Sabbath, headless cross is one of them.
AMAZING!!!!
A request: Ready to strike - King Kobra
I think Vivian's solo on Rainbow is one of the best 80s metal solos along with Randy Rhoads' all-time-greatest "afterbirth" first solo in "Mr. Crowley." But this was a BADASS solo too. Completely original but outstanding in it's own right. Well done fellas. 🤘
What a voice!!! Amazing!!!
Erik - Sweden’s Pride Nr 1 👊🏽
Damn, Erik is with no doubt my fav singer, the way he performs is insane!, plus THE GREAT WORK of Jona and Dave! 🔥
Wow.. Din röst här Erik ger mig rysningar överallt. Puh. En annan är uppväxt med dessa låtar (är 57), men du gör dem verkligen rättvisa.... I´m shivering... Love från Heavytanten...
Underrated Sabbath track. Hope your doing better! Definitely sound as good as ever. Requests would be..
Send her my love - Journey.
Forever autumn - Justin hayward.
Lay it down - Ratt
Get well soon chap. Can't wait to hear more.
Detta är en av mina absoluta favoriter av Black Sabbath med
Tony Martin .🖤
Jag måste bara säga Erik att du gör denna låten något så fantastiskt bra,
vilken röst o närvaro .🤘🖤👊🔥🙏
Tan tan Feliz de volver a oírte Erik!!!👏👏👏👏 Me da la Vida!!!🥰🥰🥰 Sería curioso que cantases " In these arms" de Bob Jovi!!! Un abrazo!!!!😘
Also your voice remainds me so much Bob Rock in Avantasia's The Glory of Rome song, give it a check!
Top notch cover from One of the best vocals in current days in these hard rock scene
Wow...the tune is higher than the original track. It's so awsome, remembering a lot of other singer had difficulty in the original tune track.
Erik, to begin with: get well soon!!!
And where to start....Tony Martin was (and maybe still is) a great singer and pretty underrated i.m.o! In this clip you really nailed his voice and reach! This is not an easy task...
This whole era of Black Sabbath was musically-wise a beautifull one. Everything was just right: The mucisians, the music, the production!
If you find the inspiration, try from the Tyr album-Anno Mundi!
I would like to hear Anno Mundi too! Your voice is enchanting!
Anno Mundi kicks major ASS!!!!
I have to say, 30 seconds in and I was just as excited to hear this as the day I bought the CD 30 years ago. BRAVO!
whoa, amazing cover and congrats to all the opportunities coming your way. Tony Martin is way underrated and a legendary voice imo, your cover is epic. Love to hear your covers of some Badlands or TNT covers, and great to hear original music with you and Dave Dalone. much success and health \m/
Eric i really miss your Band Heat! Hope you will get another Band!! Im so inspired by your voice! Im your die hard fans from Philippines 🇵🇭🥰🥰
Hej Erik
My suggestion is The Last in Line by Dio.
So many great suggestions already, surely we'll be having fun watching you do killer versions here.
Keep rockin' 🤘😘🤘
A fucking masterpiece. Wow. Just wow.
This is great, I would love to hear you do “Nightwing.”
Same here! Hell do this whole album!
Saw you with Skid Row in Massachusetts a few months back. Awesome show. Went to practice guitar to this song and stumbled on this. Great job! Martin era Sabbath deserves more love.
