@@austinanderson9660 He went to one once, he said so in an interview. But the teacher said that he should change nothing, the teacher didn't want to touch his technique basically. And so he left and didn't go back from what I know. But he did go, he wasn't too proud to try it or something like that.
What a fabulous singer, song and interpretation. You are lucky Sweden to have given home to some of the most fabulous singers. Jussi, Birgit, Nikolai. Hakan and a good few more that I havent room to mention. Tommy Körberg is well placed amongst them. I have had the pleasure of living and performing in Your wonderful country and look forward to singing O Helga Natt this Christmas. In Swedish as well. Thank You all. You are all wonderful. The Baldchemist
I think and have always thought this man possesses one of the most beautiful male voices I have ever heard. He's also a deeply emotionally involved singer. Wonderful.
Tommy's hole in one. He absolutely nails this song here in such a way that it's his, and no one else's. I've heard him do this same song different times (thank you, UA-cam!), and this is, by far, his best effort. Everyone else is just pretending.
That audience better had given him a standing ovation:). This is my favorite performance of him singing Anthem. He has so much talent. His control and power is incredible.
I saw him live once. It was Chess at The Circus in Stockholm. When he lets loose it is truly awesome. Up close and personal like that he has so much power.
I've grown up listening to Tommy Körberg, and I still get chill over my whole body hearing this. I've heard several other artist cover this song, but no one's ever, ever measured up to him. He's definitely one of the best singers Sweden's produced!
Wow. At 2:30 "where would I start". He really nails that note. Almost sharp, top string if you like. Never heard it done that way before. I have heard better versions of the whole song, but not that note. Superb.
He (Tommy Körberg) is one of the greatest singers there ever was and will be. Furthermore he also happened to be in marvellous voice at the time for this performance. What more can you ask for? A great singer and in top form!
Simply stunning ! My first intro to Tommy Korberg as well, and I'm in awe. Beautiful song (by the Abba guys, of course !) and sung with such passion. Those long notes near and at the end were awesome. Well done.
Passion! Passion is the key. Tommy has internalized this song. He takes it personally. It is his Anthem. It's never just a performance. He never "mails it in."
My Good! This is the best! A great and wonderfull Mr. Körberg, a wonderfull orchestre, a wonderfull Maestro David Firmann, and of course a fantastic Anthem by Andersson/Ulvaeus. Thank You!!!
Always loved this song - he has an awesome voice. I recently listened to this version: Tommy Körberg From Chess - Anthem (I Mitt Hjärtas Land) - Beautiful!
Amazing! Definitely my favorite number from Chess!!! I was a followspotter on a recent amateur production of this show and I must say concentrating on the spotting during this song is nearly impossible.
Actually, there is one better from 1989 when he sang it in Skellefteå, Sweden. He was on fire that night. Unfortunately, they removed that video from youtube due to copyright.
Probably my favourite rendition of this song. Absolutely amazing performance. Also, this is filmed in Denmark, not Sweden, going by the opening titles.
I'm just slightly crying here. NEVER has there been a singer more perfectly matched with a song! This = flawless perfection. Anthem IS Tommy Körberg's and Tommy Körberg's alone. (Tommy Körberg + Helen Sjöholm = världens bästa kombo)
Beautiful renditions by extremely talented people is what makes me want to fight and claw my way to the top of the theatre world. I want to share my talent with others and hopefully some day inspire someone just like Tommy and so many others have inspired me.... Cheers to giving back!!!
He was the originator of this amazing song and no one since can touch his incredible rendition. I'm lucky to have an original cast recording (vinyl) bought 20+ years ago at a time when I never knew how much I would eventually come to love this song and the way he sings it.
I love the expression on his face @ 1:45. Like you can tell, he is emotionally connected to this song. Amazing. Beautiful. I really don't think anyone can preform this more perfectly.
Oh, I love this song so much, and this is the best performance of it I've heard so far, even amongst other sterling performances by Tommy Körberg. The first version I heard of "Anthem" was in four-part harmony, arranged (if I remember right) by the composer himself for an excellent Swedish women's quartet (international gold-medalists, "Growing Girls"). That was awesome, and deeply moving, with superb harmonies, but I like this version even better.
Tommy starred in the original Swedish and UK productions of Chess. The song was intended for his to sing, and sing he does so exceedingly well! BRAVO! This is one special treat :-D 10 stars!
AWESOME!! He is the best singer EVER to sing this song!! I love him on the OCR of Chess and got the chance to see it in the West End!! But thge power in his voice is simply amazing!! No one else comes close to this version!! Bravo!!
It's funny because if you compare this performance to the original album version, he improved SO much. He was always great but he went from great to inconceivably awesome.
Tommy Korberg is the ultimate Anatoly. the control this man has over his voice is just amazing. I know people don't like to hear people asking to check out their versions of the songs,but I have just recorded this song,due for release back in Norway, and would love to hear peoples opinions:)
It's sad to see so many people write "this guy is amazing". It's Tommy Körberg, one of the best singers in the world. He is the original voice of this song and has always been the best one performing it.
223 Brings a tear to my eye everytime. What amaes me is that it's like he just arrived by car, walks on stage, brings the house down, and takes off to the pub.
I love Josh too and there are some great versions of this song, but he is the first to actually make me understand what the song is about. He pulls me into the moment and his motherland - not just the beautiful voice.
A had heard this song long ago. But I remember it from the night before the wedding of Prince Joakim and Miss Manley ( the future Princesse of Denmark to be and now Countess of Frederiksborg - after their divorce - she came from Hongkong ) and I shall never forget the chill it gave me when I heard that song performed by a danish known artist at the Royal salute for the couple the evening before their mariage.
@Dirschbag yes, it was tommy körberg. he was cast first, recorded it first and performed it first… and in my opinion he is by far the best performer of this song
Ugh he's so epic. He is an awesome actor and he has literally one of the best male voices ever. He is mt favorite Russian in Chess and quite possibly my favorite Jean Valjean too.
Tommy has not once taken a singing lesson. He is pure talent.

sorry Sammy but only dyslektiv maybee being drunk would help
Maybe a few singing lessons wouldn’t have hurt

That is a myth. He has taken several lessons

Still my absolute favorite out of all his performances of this song, so much my emotion and I love the "MY land's only borders part"!
This man is AMAZING. He sets a standard that very few can accomplish.... in ANY ROLE!!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely STUNNING!
This man's voice is a gift to the world! I could listen to him endlessly! BRAVO! 10+ stars!
02:44 aaaaapart. Glorious moment
witohut a doubt the best version I've ever heard..... and I've heard a few
Yes. This is the definitive version of this beautiful song, sung by the Master for whom it was written when he was cast in 'Chess'.
I agree
Close second but I prefer the Laurcen Olivier awards version just a bit more
🙏⚘💚⚘🙏
The only peformance that sends chills down my spine every time I listen to it...
words fail me !!!!!! the vocal trill at 2. 44 gives me goosebumps. should be the bloody national anthem. superb !!
oh the goosebumps!
this has got to be one of the most beautiful songs ever written.
This is THE version. Tommy is THE singer.
Goosebumps, from the first note to the last.
I've never heard Korberg before - I'm going to find more of his singing right now. What a voice!
I think and have always thought this man possesses one of the most beautiful male voices I have ever heard. He's also a deeply emotionally involved singer. Wonderful.
There is simply no such thing as a singer better than tommy korberg
Greatest vocalist on the planet
Period
You know, I was thinking, "Well this guy isn't too much better than Groban, I don't see what all the fuss is about". Then I got to 2:28 and....WOW!
You must be kidding. Not too much better than Groban?
I am sorry to tell you this, but Groban would probably kiss Tommy Körberg's feet.
HE knows!
GROBAN could never live by the side of this man and his fabulous voice !!
Tommy's hole in one. He absolutely nails this song here in such a way that it's his, and no one else's. I've heard him do this same song different times (thank you, UA-cam!), and this is, by far, his best effort. Everyone else is just pretending.
That audience better had given him a standing ovation:). This is my favorite performance of him singing Anthem. He has so much talent. His control and power is incredible.
Must be one of the most gorgeous voices on the planet. Tommy, thanks for making my day. An impossibly beautiful performance.
ommy Körberg has never taken a singing lesson.
He is a pure natural talent.
I saw him live once. It was Chess at The Circus in Stockholm. When he lets loose it is truly awesome. Up close and personal like that he has so much power.
God bless you Tommy, you're probably one of the greatest vocalists in the world!! May God ride with you... 10 - 4

i have never heard no one in my entire life who can put soo much soul and feelings in his own voice than he can. he is brilliant !!!!!!
absolutely epic....one of the most emotional performances of this piece I have ever heard.
He (Tommy Körberg) is one of the greatest singers there ever was and will be. Furthermore he also happened to be in marvellous voice at the time for this performance.
What more can you ask for?
A great singer and in top form!
This song always brings a tear to my eye. Such an amazing song. And Tommy K is a truly special singer.
Che voce ragazzi !... Grande interprete, grande pezzo, grande musical !
Claudio Morganti SI grande!!
Just reviewed 4 other versions of this song. I can say, without a doubt, Korberg owns this song.
Håller med dig totalt! Det finns ingen som kan mäta sig med Tommy. Han är utan tvekan världens bästa sångare!
Simply stunning !
My first intro to Tommy Korberg as well, and I'm in awe. Beautiful song (by the Abba guys, of course !) and sung with such passion. Those long notes near and at the end were awesome. Well done.
A wonderful version of this superb song.He sings this with great passion.I love it....Thanx for the post....
Passion! Passion is the key. Tommy has internalized this song. He takes it personally. It is his Anthem. It's never just a performance. He never "mails it in."
This is the best thing on youtube- I swear to God.
I maintain this 7 year later.
Agree! This would be up there too. ua-cam.com/video/ad2PVVKMc_w/v-deo.html
@@lockwoc a man after my heart you are!
@@TheAmyBryans I've also come back to this pretty much every year for 8 years
Its not in Sweden, but in Copenhagen Denmark (at Stadium "Parken"), The Danish Radio Orchestra.
- And yes, its Great !!
My Good!
This is the best! A great and wonderfull Mr. Körberg, a wonderfull orchestre, a wonderfull Maestro David Firmann, and of course a fantastic Anthem by Andersson/Ulvaeus. Thank You!!!
the man is amazing. i love his voice. goodness me... have me crying and everything.
OMG! 02.24 - 03.11... I'm sitting here, crying! It's so beautiful!
One of the most flawless vocal performances I've seen. Gotta love Körberg, I'm proud to be a swede when we have this wonderful man in our arsenal. =)
This is a great performance from a great singer and I love the song.Very dramatic. Thanks for the post xiaoduan and thanks Tommy for the song......
Always loved this song - he has an awesome voice. I recently listened to this version: Tommy Körberg From Chess - Anthem (I Mitt Hjärtas Land) - Beautiful!
Mr Körberg, I would so like to meet you. What a beautiful voice. Have so enjoyed listening to you, many times over now! I love how you sing!!!
Amazing! Definitely my favorite number from Chess!!!
I was a followspotter on a recent amateur production of this show and I must say concentrating on the spotting during this song is nearly impossible.
Actually, there is one better from 1989 when he sang it in Skellefteå, Sweden. He was on fire that night. Unfortunately, they removed that video from youtube due to copyright.
Yes, I was lucly to see it before they did. There was a magical version of ''Endgame'' from the same night also removed
Probably my favourite rendition of this song. Absolutely amazing performance.
Also, this is filmed in Denmark, not Sweden, going by the opening titles.
It is the most ravishing male voice I have ever heard
I'm just slightly crying here. NEVER has there been a singer more perfectly matched with a song! This = flawless perfection. Anthem IS Tommy Körberg's and Tommy Körberg's alone.
(Tommy Körberg + Helen Sjöholm = världens bästa kombo)
I even have a favorite word in this performance. At 2.40 "tear" in "Let mans petty nations TEAR themselves apart." Holy shit I get chills every time.
Beautiful renditions by extremely talented people is what makes me want to fight and claw my way to the top of the theatre world. I want to share my talent with others and hopefully some day inspire someone just like Tommy and so many others have inspired me....
Cheers to giving back!!!
Gives me chills every time, thru the whole song. Proud to be a swede when I hear it :)
he is the only one who can sing this song. PERFECT!!! Greatings from Norway :)
He was the originator of this amazing song and no one since can touch his incredible rendition. I'm lucky to have an original cast recording (vinyl) bought 20+ years ago at a time when I never knew how much I would eventually come to love this song and the way he sings it.

Denne sang og Stad i ljus giver mig kuldegysninger gennem hele kroppen.
Hvor ville jeg gerne opleve ham på en scene.
OMG, fantastic! He makes your heart ache. Thank you so much for posting!
I just love the way he twists the end of the high notes. Jävlar, vad bra!
This is the best vocal performance I've heard. Ever. Leve länge Tommy! =)
🙏⚘💚⚘🙏

That quality is unique! The best man ever to sing anthem
It's funny because if you compare this performance to the original album version, he improved SO much. He was always great but he went from great to inconceivably awesome.
Tommy Korberg is the ultimate Anatoly. the control this man has over his voice is just amazing.

223 Brings a tear to my eye everytime. What amaes me is that it's like he just arrived by car, walks on stage, brings the house down, and takes off to the pub.
Fecking effortless!
Wow! My first intro to Mr. Korberg. Where have I been? Beautiful.
I love Josh too and there are some great versions of this song, but he is the first to actually make me understand what the song is about. He pulls me into the moment and his motherland - not just the beautiful voice.
A had heard this song long ago.

The best Version from Anthem from Tommy Körberg actually!
I love this Song so much
The power in his voice at 2:30 is absolutely amazing. I think I've heard maybe 3 other singers have that much pure power. Truly, truly phenomenal.
John raitt comes to mind. Few can hold a candle…
This, my friends, is one of the greatest performances you will ever here...
Really beautiful
Wow just wow, this was just beautiful.
This song (with Tommy) always chokes me up..
It certainly is HIS song!! Bravo!!
Saw tommy in the original 'Chess'. Amazing.
I can say that we are very proud to have a singer like Tommy in Sweden.
great interpretation, the better, the others are so soft, and underpassionate versions.
just as info the concert was in Copenhagen at our national arena for our soccer team. Accompanied by the danish tv orchestre.
Everything BB tutching become's GOLD and
perfektion simply
@Dirschbag yes, it was tommy körberg. he was cast first, recorded it first and performed it first… and in my opinion he is by far the best performer of this song
Goosebumps!
Ugh he's so epic. He is an awesome actor and he has literally one of the best male voices ever. He is mt favorite Russian in Chess and quite possibly my favorite Jean Valjean too.
Concert is at the danish national stadium, Parken.
It gets me every time!
What an EPIC performance of this song, 5 stars
absolutely flawless...
You just can't sing better than this!
He sings better and better every year 🙏🎶💕
Only jTommy Korberg can sing this song so perfectly! No one can match him.
A thilling voice, a thrilling performance. Probably the best on you tube.
I like both josh and his version, nice to appreciate both:)
this is the best song in Chess....and what a stunning job he does. well done from america!
Same here lol... I was thinking "yeah... a bit more effortless perhaps... nice dynamic contrast..." then BOOM
People can try and try to sing this song better than Tommy, but they're bound to fail, they've got NO chance.
He is indeed brilliant... ...!
What a voice
