You are entering 3 different rabbit holes here, all amazing. Erik Grönwall is a former singer of Skid Row and the winner of Swedish Idol in 2009, singing here with Tommy Johansson, former guitarist of Sabaton and also singer and songwriter of Majestica. They both have their UA-cam channels full of brilliant covers. Sabaton is a metal band from Sweden who are primarily singing about military history, but without glorifying war or taking sides, but rather telling stories that need to be told, often focusing on a bravery of individual soldiers. Carolus Rex is a song about Swedish king Charles XII (Karl in Swedish, Carolus in Latin) and his rise to the power. I hope you will check out Sabaton original too and also their songs Christmas Truce and Bismarck. As for Tommy and Erik, I recommend Tommy's cover of She's Gone by Steelheart and Erik's cover of All By Myself by Celine Dion (originally Eric Carmen). Thanks for your reaction
Thanks for a great reaction, we all love these 2 swedish ❤ Thou you never lissen to Tommy Johansson, Eric and Sabaton you have sooo much fun coming to you. As you already know Tommy was Sabatons guitarist for 8 year so in this one he played his own solos and his bandfriend Chris guitar work ❤ Well he is a genius, plays about 10-12 instruments and can sing all sort of genre from Ave Maria to AC/DC. All you see and hear in his videos are Tommy exept when he invited an other artist ofcourse 😃
Congratulations on discovering these two! I'm no history major, but from what I understand Carolus was a king of Sweden, the Rex is the same as the word for "king", but they are singing "rise" because in this song we are hearing about his rise to power. You really need to explore more of Tommy's music. He is one of the most accomplished musicians alive today! He play's many instruments and has an amazing voice! He does covers from many genres and "metalizes" them! Just take your pick of any of your favorite songs from his channel and he will have upgraded it! But he also writes music, my favorite is "The Light"! Another good one is "You Raise Me Up". And Tommy just LOVES Christmas! You have to hear him cover "O Helga Natt" (Swedish "O Holy Night") and "Ave Maria"! ❤

Karl XII or here Carolus Rex took the crown at age 15 and ruled absolutely. He wasn't coronated by the archbishop as usual in the ritual, but put the crown on his head himself, before enterinf the cathedral for the coronation act. Only God was above. Karl XII became a warrior king, leading his soldiers in battle over large parts of Europe. Got defeated by Russian tzar Peter the Great and had to seek refuge in then Turkey, the Ottoman empire for a while. Finally killed while besieging a Norwegian fortress in 1718. His army, the Carolingian soldiers was considered an elite force, personally led by him in battle, but all his wars broke the country financially and by draining the population in drafting more and more soldiers that never made it back to Sweden.
Carol Rex was the nickname that Karl the 12th of Sweden had and he was only 15 years old when he became King of Sweden. Carol Rex said that his orders come directly from God and not from the church. You can hear the story of Carol Rex on Sabaton History on UA-cam.
Awesome cover by Tommy and Erik 💯🎸😍 you have found 2 awesome singers here. I hope you will checkout Tommy’s channel. He is not only an amazing singer but also a super talented musician. 💯 I subscribed and hope for more Tommy and Erik. Thanks for the reaction 🙏🇸🇪
Oh you really should check out some of Tommy's stuff! Many of us would love to see a collaboration between Tommy and Dan Vasc! Up until this year, Tommy was a guitarist for Sabaton. Oh, and it was Tommy on guitar in this one. And you should check out Sabaton. Their songs all have historical themes, and they are awesome! Thanks for reacting.
Just to clarify, Tommy was playing guitar in this cover. In Sabaton live performances lead guitar on this song is played by Chris Rörland, as Sabaton has 2 lead guitarists
