Iconic song from a legend in the tender hands of Chris Kläfford. With it, this Scandinavian lumberjack giant brought tears and goosebumps on AGT.
I love his voice, gives me goosebumps. His rendition of Tennessee whiskey is also amazing.
He gave you his low voice, his raspy voice, his falsetto, all in one, while sharing a message of peace and unity. Awesome reaction. (By the way, you have a beautiful voice as well.)
Yes Lennon was a member of The Beatles. However this song is from his solo career after the band split up.
Just like your smile listening, he is one of us, love from Sweden 👋
Now listen to John Lennons original. It is amazing too.
John himself was a gift..I’m grateful I was alive when he was. Love ya Britt. ❤️🔥
The original is absolutely beautiful. Pentatonix did a fantastic cover as well. This song truly is timeless.
He also done a cover of Chris Stapleton’s Tennessee Whiskey It’s A Must Watch! Put Him In The PDC love Watching Your Reactions.
Thank you for listening to this. Its an amazing cover of this song. Chris Klafford is an outstanding singer and no choice is wrong when it comes to his music.
I think you would enjoy the original song by John Lennon as well! 🏆(It's done on a Grand Piano).
Chris is great, but my fav from his kitchen session, is his cover of ocean eyes. You should def check it out👍👍
"people when they sing, they make me feel things" - don't ever lose that. Technical analysis is all well and good, but never lose the art and soul that music makes you feel. In the end, that's what really matters. What does this make me feel. Beautiful. You and Chris.
glad you found Chris for he is an amazing singer/musician. when you visit his channel be prepared to be WOWED over and over again. he just released his debut album May 2023 and its incredible. two of my favorites on that album are 'Maybe Its Just Me' and 'The Lying Kind'. hope to see more reactions of Chris' music and thanks for this one.
thank you for doing my suggestion this guy is amazing he is from sweden an his version of tennesse whiskey to me is the best one yet
Yes John was a Beatles and this his masterpiece John was so famous after he was assassinated thousands of radio stations around the world went silent for one minute the only time in my life that ever happened
Just wanna give a shout out to all the current and former members of the military. Thank you for your service and sacrifice. Happy memorial day!🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
I discovered Chris a few weeks ago, and he is such a wonderful person! I am happy you subscribed to his channel❤
Your reaction reminded me of my first time hearing him sing this song❤
John Lennon was a man way ahead of his time! A talent unequaled, and a great human being. Imagine hit the world right in the middle of crisis all around the world. The United States was coming out of the Vietnam War, racisim and segregationism had taken blows and was weakening. People were trying to change, and this song was meant to stir the feelings of being better to one another. Great song, amazing songwriter, and overall great human.
FINALLY! I love this guy. Should do Ocean Eyes next, or T
ennessee Whiskey
Few covers are worthy of the original, but this is one of them.
Great reaction Britt. This has been polished from the AGT audition performance. Rock background is noticeable and those high notes so sharp that cuts through your chest. The changes are great choices, beautiful.
Hi Britt, Isn't it an amazing time to be alive? Artist like Chris and Angelina who bring these old songs once again to life it all must be part of our creators great awakening don't you think? Wink Wink ! As Elvis goes so does John !
You really got to react to some of his other cover.
Bruises
Tennessee Whiskey
Cold at the altar
Treading water
Keep it loose, keep it tight
ocean eyes
guarantee you will love them
Always a beautiful lyric. Pentatonix did an awesome video for their version. Mr. Klafford has released some amazing originals, like Cold at the Alter. Another vocal you might enjoy is Tom Walker's live studio version of Angels - literally takes you to church.
John Lennon’s original is from 1971, and he was all about keeping it simple, after the experimentation, innovations and (in his mind) excesses of The Beatles in the recording studio. So it’s just a very simple and sparse beat of drums and bass with John’s piano and vocals on top - (and briefly a 70s string machine, in lieu of orchestral strings, if I remember correctly).
For fans of John and The Beatles, such as myself, this song has been played to death over the years, by casual listeners and radio stations. And I wouldn’t mind never hearing the original again. Imagine my surprise when Chris came along and breathed new life into the song. That’s no small feat, capturing an audience sick and tired of the song.
Yes, John Lennon was a Beatle. This song is from 1971 and his solo music. This is an iconic song. A little surprised you don’t know it. Listen to John’s original. There is a video of him and Yoko (his wife) made in 1971. As beautiful as this cover is, nothing compares to John’s original.
Beautiful ❤️🔥
i love chris and i love your reaction ! And i love you!
I always burst into tears hearing his voice
John Lennon was an iconic writer, singer, performer and activist !! His original is unmatched by anybody ! A classic !!
Yes this is a Lennon masterpiece, and yes he was a Beatle. You really should listen to John's original.... RIP John, gone way to long
You got a beautiful voice yourself :-)
You should be world famous. Your beauty and talent, how you talk about other people, your respect. I think you are wonderful! Have a Great day beautiful@
Greetngs from Sweden! Chris is our hero! 🥰
This song came out during the Vietnam War.
Omg best reactions ever 😁
One of the best songs ever written
May I suggest another Swedish performer who is one of the all time greats. Tommy Körberg performing Anthem from the musical Chess. Tommy was in the original production of Chess and it was written specifically for him. Josh Groban did a great job but Tommy is on another level

If only this were the way of the world. There have been many who have been waiting for 50 years for this to happen.
Britt,
Once again I am so impressed with your understanding of music and of the lyrics. The major problem I have with you is that I can't watch most of the other reactors because they seem so shallow after listening to a few of yours. I love, love, love the work you do. Thanks!
Kris Klaford won Swedens Swedens Got Talent in 2017, He also auditioned in 2019 for AGT.
Sweden has some amazing singers Chris kläfford Erik Grönwall Tommy Johansson. Tommy Körberg. And a bunch more 👍
He did this song while competing on AGT show in 2021, performed differently then than here in this video. It amazes me how beautiful his voice is, especially in the higher registers. Great reaction, TY.
Yes, first time he did it was when he was in the qualifying stage of Swedish Idol, one of the judges gave him the comment: "Thanks Chris for you being you, someone we all wants to be".
Our swedish pride and joy Chris ❤️❤️
You've now heard it one hundred times, but yes… John Lennon. This is a classic song of his'. A former member of the Beatles. Wonderful rendition.
Wicked game cover
That would be as close to Heaven as you could get and that would be Beautiful.
beautiful song beautiful girl
Wonderful singer. So happy you did him,hmm, reacted to him yeah .I can't send links on my shitty tablet but please I hope others do. Some early stuff from Swedish Idol. He slayed.😊
Great song, even if you don't review it, you should listen to Lennon's version. A lot more simplistic, but just as beautiful. Love your reactions, God bless.
Britt... A thought on one you might really want to hear. A John Lennon piece done with his mates; The Beatles. The song is ' Across the Universe', covered by the band Evanescence, the singer is Amy Lee. While often a heavy metal sound to Evanescence , her cover of this Lennon masterwork is absolutely beautiful. I believe you will be blown away by her voice, she can sing like an angel.
You have to listen to his Tenesee Whiskey ! Love it!
You're right, John Lennon was a member of the Beatles. I'm surprised you were questioning that, I'm only 9 years older than you, but I understand you asking. No hate from me. Love your reactions!
Britt, your understanding of the meaning of John's song is perfect. Yes, let's all get rid of the baggage we drag around that keeps us divided. Check out PTX doing it too. Chris does "Mary Did you Know" excellently.
WoW!!!!
Funny.
She's reacting to the song.
I'm reacting to her femininity - abosoluteley supercute, love the cute expressions.
You should react to his cover of Tennessee Whiskey😊amazing!
Enjoyed your reaction.
You should hear him sing Mary, Did You Know.
Thank you.
He's from Sweden and have a listen to his albums there awesome
This is an amazing version and interpretation of John Lennons Imagine and you should know that he's done a version of Tennessee Whiskey that's out of this world and I do believe you would enjoy, I hope to see you react to that one.
Can't beat Lennon, but his is a fantastic rendition.. remember seeing him on American Idol sing this as his first audition, I don't usually watch it but saw that episode online and it was mind-blowingly good!
He's actually a Scandinavian I believe 👍🏴🇬🇧
Please watch Pentatonix’ version of Imagine. You will shed a tear for sure! You’ll love it
Great reaction Britt! Check out "Cold at the altar" by him... You will not be disappointed.😍
... agree totally - he can SAANG ;-D
... and John Lennon was a masterfull composer 🙂
It is so sad that you are not familiar with this song because it is one of the most powerful message song of all time, a powerful classic by John Lennon.
John (former Beatle) was inspired by several poems written in 1964 book called Grapefruit By his future wife Yoko Ono.
While you should listen to Johns version before any others do not listen to the Celeb Covid version.
You have an extremely good ear for music I must say and plenty of music legends left to listen to it seems🙏😘!
Chris Kläfford is a favorite of mine. If you want to continue down his rabbit hole, everyone of his Kitchen Sessions are gems! If I should suggest one, it would be his cover of Matt Corby’s Brother - it’s a masterpiece imho!
Pretty please, with sugar on top, make another Dirty Loops reaction as well! If you want to see their unique level of musicality, I suggest Work Shit Out!
Go and have the day you deserve! ✌️
Love Chris! Listen to Wicked Games next, please.
1:43 😂Relax
In the beginning, there were only _one world._ Humans (us - has, and - is) - dividing it! But I'm loving that there's sangers who reminds us!
Though it's now impossible to go back.... *_:|_*
BRITT PLEASE LOOK INTO THE MUSIC OF JOHN LENNON. WHEN ELVIS PASSED AWAY HE PUT OUTSIDE OLD MOVIE THEATER
/ BEFORE ELVIS THERE WAS NOTHING --- JOHN LENNON/ I THINK AT THAT TIME IN ERA WHAT ELVIS DiD BROKE THE DIVISION OF CERTAIN MUSIC.
JOHN GOING SOLO WAS TO ME ENJOYED THE STORY. THERE'S ONE SONG I PLAY ALSO ALO WAS / MOTHER/ PLEASE LISTEN TO IT FROM JOHN/ HAPPY CHRISTMAS/❤ THANK YOU❤
Lennon’s original and Pentatonix’s versions are beautiful. 😊
Britt I adore you and love the way you talk with us. I feel like you and I would be best friends. I actually talk back to you while you talk to us. ( No I’m not crazy) Lol I just feel like we are sitting down over tea or coffee. That’s why I adore your reactions. I too am a music lover and enjoy your channel so much ❤❤❤
After listening to the original John Lennon album version, you might enjoy Stevie Wonder at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. Also, if you look at the lyrics a little differently than the usual way, all of the things he is talking about getting beyond are things we are already imagining - the human concepts of religion, the imaginary lines separating countries, and the ego's need for false security in imagining that it can own anything, which results in greed. So that would be more an idea of seeing through our unconscious habitual imaginings, and the fears behind them.
You should have reacted to his AGT version, so different and better imoa
If you haven't seen/heard it yet, this is John Lennon's original version of Imagine: ua-cam.com/video/ugrAo8wEPiI/v-deo.html
And yes, John Lennon was one of the Beatles.
Most pop music lists have "Imagine" as one of the top 10 all-time best songs.
One of Swedens best voices ever in my most humble opinion. Thank you for your videos, i quite enjoy them! And YES i am hitting the subscribe button rather hard 🥰 May i suggest one of my favorites if you find the time, from my favorite Swedish metal bands Hammerfall? This is featuring Noora Louhimo, ua-cam.com/video/xnxRAl8sk6A/v-deo.html Again, thank you so much for your effort and in my opinion honesty in making and reacting to music. And yes i am Swedish (so i beg your pardon for my bad spelling) and wishes you all the best!
Gosh så vacker du är :-) When will you come and visit Sweden then? :-)
You should give his song cold at the alter a try
You got it right dear! John Lennon was one of the Beatles. 😅
Try his version of "Zombie".
Good, good reaction😢. Tis john Lennon😊.
This is a great cover of the song. Chris has a great voice. I would love to see you react to Angelica Hale singing her latest cover of Part of your World from the Little Mermaid. She does a really great job with it. She sounds like she is singing on the stage version of it.
Next Ocean eyes in the kitchen👍🔥 love your videoes thx
Chris is a fantastic artist and singer! Pliz check out his kitchen sessions!
Be safe
Björn
Always makes me sad that the man who wrote this beautiful song about mankind being kind to each other died in such a violent way at the hands of another man. It feels like a metaphor for the bigger picture. It will probably be impossible for all of humanity to love each other… ever… but nobody can stop us dreaming… imagine ❤✌️
A senseless murder.
try his kitchen session tennesesee whiskey
Lennon himself said the song is basically The Communist Manifesto.....
Why can't they just leave the classics alone 😫
Not to know everything and not because it is good (but it is!). But you should check through a bit of Beatles production. During about six years in the 60s Beatles changed the music totally and in many respects. I remember their breakthrough. Pick one song from each official album from the start to the breakup. After that you have a background and a timeline for whats coming during the following 50 years
I don’t think anyone should ever cover this song.
I prefer Lennon's version, but this is a good cover. Pentatonix did a good cover as well.
Britt I thought you believed or are you rejecting can’t have it both ways
Kalfford?
The world is so much more complicated today than when John Lennon released this song. So, even more so, these words are so poignant today. I don't understand the divisiveness that continues to exist, have we not learned anything???
The world is full of many wonderful people full of love and light, but it has much darkness and deception in it as well. This dream of utopia won’t be realized until the return of the King and all darkness is vanquished. Nevertheless it will happen.
Britt, Britt, Britt, how could you have never heard "Imagine" by John Lennon? You've almost have to have heard it somewhere in your life in passing perhaps in a department store or somewhere. This song was the title track from his 1971 album of the same name. The song has been the worlds anthem since it's release in 71.
This went on too be the anthem of the Vietnam war protests throughout the seventies along with his "Give Peace A Chance". Yes, he was a Beatle, the founder of the band.
The Beatles split up in 1970 and all four went on to have very successful solo careers. Not only were they inducted in the freshman class of the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame but all four were also inducted in as solo artists and the only ones with that honor as both a band and solo artists.
John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr. The Beatles and the four most iconic names in the history of recorded music. Lennon was shot to death on the night of December 8th, 1980 while entering his home in NYC by a deranged fan. George Harrison passed in 2001 from lung cancer. "Imagine" was pronounced by the United Nations as the worlds anthem during the worldwide Covid lock downs.
This song was all over the news as people were singing it from their balconies from NYC to Italy, Spain, Germany and all across Europe.
This cover was ok but not in the same league as Lennon's.
You need to react to the official video by John from 1971.
Him sitting at a white piano and performing this in his home will give you goose bumps, that I will assure you.
One of a kind voice that will send a chill down your spine and to watch him performing it. Come on man, it's John F_ _ _ ing Lennon. I've seen many react to this so you should be able to do it. John and the song deserve you reacting to it. If I don't see this down the road I may have to get Bill Burr psycho pissed off. Well maybe not psycho pissed but pretty pissed off.
Anytime you do covers you should also do the originals for context.
Peace ❤
why always pause? im hyper too but let the song play and then comment a word or two as its going along then summarize the end. just my opinion, ivenever reacted to before though lol peace and love to ya!!
I won't be mean to you but how in Christ's name have you never heard this song?! 😂 Great reaction
Not knowing everything is always fine, but I do think that spelling the artist's name right in the title would be respectful...
