Tjena Erik! Gott att höra om din förbättrade hälsa och att du tar hand om dig...❤... Jag har en toppen-ide som jag tänkte att du skulle gå igång på och lösa lite snyggt ...😆... Jag bor i Uppsala och ska se Yngve på Parksnäckan i sommar ...och jag tycker att det är ytterst lämpligt att du tar ett snack rockstjärnor emellan med honom och helt enkelt sjunger några dängor med honom....🥳 Om han är snål med gage så bjuder jag på mat och dryck...🤗 Du är grym, ha det bäst... Gustav
Eric is thoroughly incredible! His vocals are amazing: powerful & controlled. He KNOWS his instrument. His life inspires almost as much as his music. Thank you
I rarely leave comments on any video, BUT…A video by Erik singling this song popped up on my feed just a short while ago, and I was stunned by his performance. At 80 years of age, there are fewer and fewer things that amaze, delight, thrill and affect my soul. This performance affected me just as the one by Whitney Houston did. Then, your video appeared. What a joy to hear this sung again. Your analysis was perfect. A wish has always been to be able to hit these notes, and even at this advanced age, the wish never fades🤨
Erik is incredible, it pains me to say this (as a Finnish person), but two of my favorite singers at the moment are Swedes, thanks a lot Erik and Tommy 🙃
Eric sings an speaks 5 different languages. He along with Dan Vasc have a way wuth songs from others eras that speaks to those of us who long for true vocals. Pure sound that carries our heart on the note. I am 81 years old and if you realy pay attention to Dan's fans you will notice many of my generation who love this sound. I have even become a hard rock fan.....big deal!❤❤❤❤❤
When I saw Skid Row with Sebastian Bach I thought no one would ever be able to sing those songs. I was lucky enough to see Eric and he was even better. It was amazing ....
This Guy can sing anything from this song , to Iron Maidens Hallowed be thy name , with perfection . It's like he picks very hard songs to sing just so he can nail it . Super impressive young man - much respect to him 👍 Great reaction once again Ken 😁
I’m an old man and I admit that the tears were flowing throughout this entire song. What a gifted human being he is. I was disappointed to find out this song isn’t available on iTunes. I really would love to have it in my phone. I’ll save the vid for sure.
Thanks Jamie!!! Erik is so deserving of recognition. Ken, he stepped down from Skid Row due to a weakened immune system after chemo and he was getting too sick to continue touring. He has done a few collabs that are amazing too. Notably Carrolus Res (Sabaton cover) with Tommy Johansson and H.E.A.T cover (He was lead singer for them for I believe 10 years) of Breaking the Silence with Dan Vasc. He's a super "nice guy" as well.❤🎼🎵🤘
Erik is one of my favorite singers right now and he is so hunble and genuine. He is using his god given talents to make stellar performances like this. His cover of Dio's rRinbow in the Dark is awesome too.
Wow, hitting that high note at 4:37 just like Erik Grönwall, and without any warm-up, is absolutely amazing! It really shows how talented you are and how great you are at spotting and developing vocalists. Keep up the awesome work!
A tip! Erik Grönwall has just released a new cover from Celine Dion. Celine Dion Challenge - All By Myself (Original Key). Erik has also worked with Tommy Johansson, which I know you've reacted to, but then it's a bit more hard rock - CAROLUS REX w/ Tommy Johansson (SABATON COVER). Erik won Swedish Idol 2009. Erik and Tommy have two of Sweden's absolute best rock voices, but both can also handle more melodious songs. 🎵🎶🤘
Erik actually did an amazing Rock Star-like journey. One of his first appearences was auditioning to Swedish Idol, doin a Skid Row-song. Then, years later, he was offered to actually take the place as new lead singer for Skid Row and go and tour with his childhood idols
I am so happy that a vocal coach is reacting to @ErikGrönwall. He deserves singing accolades and 100% respect for being a genuinely good human!! His personal strength through his journey so far is inspiring (to say the least). I wish more people were aware of the talents in Europe (Erik, Nils Molin, Steve Lee...RIP, Eugent Bushpepa, Dino Jelusick, just for a few examples). Then there are people like Girish Pradhan (India), Ronnie Romero (Chile), and Dan Vasc (Brasil). Maybe Elizabeth Z @TheCharismaticVoice would weigh in on some of these remarkable talents too?
@@hazelzworld Amazing awesomeness! And he plays everything. He's a one man band. There are very few who can do what he does at such a high level. He's not Prince (sorry....lol) but he's a rock god!
Ken he gives it the true feelings that Dolly wrote in this song. He is pure sounds on the hifhest notes without giving the horrible yelling. I LOVE HIS SINGING. MUCH LIKE BOBBY HATFIELD of the Rightcheous Brothers.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for a superb reaction! Erik’s voice is pure magic 🤗💥❣️🌟❤️ have you seen his version of The House of the rising sun and Holy Night?! Fantastic renditions ❤️❤️❤️
You’re viewer who you quoted is mistaken. He didn’t leave SR to “treat” leukemia. He’s in full remission. He left because the rigors of touring were exhausting him and he didn’t want the band to have to cut back on their touring schedule. He’s doing great!
I just discovered Erik and have started the decent down the rabbit hole. I haven’t heard a voice, especially male, that I've been this excited about. I hope we see much more from Erik!
I have been watching your channel for a long time and it's awesome that you have erik here, he's become one of my favorite singers. He's got every genre covered and even some deep cuts from bands like sabbath and pantera. He does it all
Thank you Ken! I know Skid Row but didn’t single out Erik but thought he was good. When I found his solo channel I was elated. He is so good. He won the Swedish Idol in 2009 as a young pop singer and his audition videos are so good. Hope to watch more of him with you! Thank you
Eric is a fantastic singer, equally skilled in metal and rock. I discovered him in "Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert" (with John Legend, Sara Bareilles, Brandon Victor Dixon (amazing as Judas), and Alice Cooper). I'm glad you've discovered him too-great review as always!
This was fabulous, have played it lots of times since I first heard it. I hope things go well for Erik...you,re a wonderful entertainer. Good luck mate
I have been waiting for you to find Erik! Best kept secret on UA-cam! He does everything from Mariah Carey and Journey to Judas Priest and Black Sabbath. I think you will love some of his other covers as well.
I have to agree with Ken here this performance and his voice and how he performs it really is a homage to Whitneys original If you have not already, you should really check out Erik Grönwall's Dark Epic version of "House Of The Rising Sun" that has many millions of views already =)
Erik also did a collaboration with Dan Vasc. They covered the HEAT song Breaking the Silence. Erik was the lead singer for HEAT at one point. This cover is on Dan’s channel and it’s awesome and a little funny. Check it out.
I love Erik's version of Dolly's song. And sorry Ken I love the sax. Erik sings it closer to Whitney's version than Dolly's but Dolly wrote this great song. Erik's singing this has given me the same joy as when I first discovered Dan Vasc singing Amazing Grace. So glad I have discovered both of these young men. ❤ from a 🇨🇦 Grammy
Erik sings with Dan Vasc, a song called Breaking the Silence. It was a HEAT cover and Erik was the lead Singer for HEAT. It is a really fun song to watch them sing because they both look like they’re having a lot of fun doing it.
Amazingly gifted. Also does a bit called wheel of fortune tune where he spins the wheel and they make up a song ,and the ones I’ve seen are so fun as well as actual in the genre songs. Check them out too.
As you have found, Erik is an amazing singer, he records in his own home studio, & has an amazing bond with the musicians he works with. Check out his UA-cam channel.
This is such a great reaction video. Great insight, but also the instinct to not step on the performance. Plus, your genuine appreciation of said performance (and the salute, lol) made for a great watch. All the best to you - and to Erik. HUGE thanks to you both, as well. Cheers!
Ken, please! do his Chandelier cover!! It's so good and should have more views/reactions. pretty please?? :) You might also want to check out his collaboration with Tommy Johansson for "Carolus Rex" ... :)
Best ever! Have always loved this song and this is phenomenal. Heard him first singing with Dan Vasc and have been exploring his solo catalog ever since. ❤
great reaction. first time i have heard erik singing alone. introduced to him through several collabs with dan vasc. to my ears he has the perfect amount of seemingly natural grit to his voice. this song suits his voice.
Im embarrassed! I asked him if he would consider bringing that voice to Broadway. He KINDLY replied that he had actually played Simon in Jesus Christ Superstar with John Legend. I should have looked first!
He did. Don't know if it's possible to find the recording? A modern and stripped-down musical. But great. If I don't remember wrong. Then he was wearing denim clothes.
Erik is also a talented singer I first heard him when sang with Dan Vasc Erik has lots on You tube now. He has his former group HEAT too. Erik is going far.
Thank you sir for your kind words! I appreciate it. Just to clarify I’m cured and healthy since 2021. I left the band in order to stay that way 😎
💪🇸🇪
Boss 🤘😎🤘
Tjena Erik!
Gott att höra om din förbättrade hälsa och att du tar hand om dig...❤...
Jag har en toppen-ide som jag tänkte att du skulle gå igång på och lösa lite snyggt ...😆...
Jag bor i Uppsala och ska se Yngve på Parksnäckan i sommar ...och jag tycker att det är ytterst lämpligt att du tar ett snack rockstjärnor emellan med honom
och helt enkelt sjunger några dängor med honom....🥳
Om han är snål med gage så bjuder jag på mat och dryck...🤗
Du är grym, ha det bäst...
Gustav
Otrolig 👌👏🥳
Get well 👊
Wow - just freaking wow. What a range and control he has!
I nearly had a heart attack listening to Erik sing this. It touched me deep down in my soul.
Eric's vocals are insane and when I hear him I get goosebumps. His talent is definitely through the roof! 🤘🏼
High pitch without being girly.
A man to respect.
Wish I could give him a million thumbs up. His voice is incredible.
Since I’m from Sweden, I’m proud of this singer! What a voice quality!
Is there anything else to be proud of? Swedish too 😢
I have had chills since he hit those high notes. His voice is stunning. I was a big Skid Row fan..

I am with you man, tears. I think about Whitney & hope she is watching and enjoying this 😂❤
The best vocal in the world!!
Belting out those last couple “yous” NOT in falsetto was insane to me. So impressive.
I wouldn't call it a belt but a mix. But I agree. It's very impressive.
Thanks Jamie!!! Erik is so deserving of recognition. Ken, he stepped down from Skid Row due to a weakened immune system after chemo and he was getting too sick to continue touring.

Wow, I loved that , well done Erik….all the best while going through that nasty chemo…❤️🇦🇺❤️
Interesting. I was just thinking that his set-up looked a lot like Vasc’s garage studio.
I break down in tears every time l hear this song by Eric and l never cry
He is marvellous!! The new king!! Does the song better than any woman can do!!!
Erik is one of my favorite singers right now and he is so hunble and genuine. He is using his god given talents to make stellar performances like this. His cover of Dio's rRinbow in the Dark is awesome too.
Erik is just an inspiration in all aspects of life.....I adore his gift and his giving of hope and light. 🤗🌹🌹
I have never heard this man sing…and Sing he can! Thank you…
He is from Sweden an won IDOL 2009.
And he is even more impressive live.
Eric’s voice is amazing. Thanks for sharing your reaction.
Been watching eric for ever his voice has just got better and better.
Ja håll i hatten, Erik är grym!
❤from Danmark
Hands down one of the best male covers i have ever heard of this incredibly hard song to do.
Thank you! Erik rocks. so to speak. Greetings from Sweden
First time hearing him. Amazing voice!
Wow, hitting that high note at 4:37 just like Erik Grönwall, and without any warm-up, is absolutely amazing! It really shows how talented you are and how great you are at spotting and developing vocalists. Keep up the awesome work!
I absolutely loved the sax solo! Added so much feeling to the whole video!

ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS!!
Hauntingly beautiful- just amazing!!!!!
My sister JUST sent me this video of him last week and I subscribed immediately! He is wonderful!
Erik has a awesome sound. Check out him and Dan Vasc doing breaking the silence.
I’ll have to look at that! Thanks! Watching this I thought “ has he been watching Dan Vasc,? Because of his background. I’ll go look.
Great cover, Dan and Erik!
Erik actually did an amazing Rock Star-like journey. One of his first appearences was auditioning to Swedish Idol, doin a Skid Row-song. Then, years later, he was offered to actually take the place as new lead singer for Skid Row and go and tour with his childhood idols
And he won the Swedish idol as well!

I´ve listened and followed Erik since he floored Sweden in Idol...that voice......
Ken he gives it the true feelings that Dolly wrote in this song. He is pure sounds on the hifhest notes without giving the horrible yelling. I LOVE HIS SINGING. MUCH LIKE BOBBY HATFIELD of the Rightcheous Brothers.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wonderful rendition by Erik and wonderful reaction Ken. I really enjoy your reaction

Thank you for your reaction. This was so enjoyable. He is really good.
So sweet and powerful that it almost makes me cry... Thanks Ken!
Just discovered this gorgeous voice/ vocalist last night & phoar so so ❤
Eric nailed it . I was following him since 2009.
You need to react to Erik singing Haouse Of The Rising Sun and also Oh Holy Night They will blow your mind
Eric and Tommy are fantastic together with covering carolus rex 🔥
My favorite version of this song 🎵
Thanks for the great video👍Erik is fantastic❣I first heard him with Tommy Johansson - Erik is such a great talent too👌
So proud of our Erik ❤️
Please react to one of him singing rock/metal . He's so good that KISS sent him a video telling him how good he is. When he was in swedish idol
I would love to hear you react to Erik and Tommy's cover of Sabaton Carolus Rex.
I just discovered Erik and have started the decent down the rabbit hole. I haven’t heard a voice, especially male, that I've been this excited about. I hope we see much more from Erik!
he’s just damn good. ❤❤❤❤

The most Powerful Version Ever!
I'm obsessed with this how is it that iv never heard of him before such an incredible voice ❤
Eric is a fantastic singer, equally skilled in metal and rock. I discovered him in "Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert" (with John Legend, Sara Bareilles, Brandon Victor Dixon (amazing as Judas), and Alice Cooper). I'm glad you've discovered him too-great review as always!

Wow, you found Erik at last! I loved Whitney back in the day, she was the GOAT, and I get goosebumps hearing Erik singing this song.
I have been waiting for you to find Erik! Best kept secret on UA-cam!
He does everything from Mariah Carey and Journey to Judas Priest and Black Sabbath.
I think you will love some of his other covers as well.

Dude. You gotta listen to him doing The House of the Rising Sun. It just came out a couple days ago. A-mazing... do it now!
Like wow, what did I just watch.. absolutely killed it. He was fantastic.
divine
He's amazing. Won Swedish idol in2009 I think it was and me and my sis were blown away. Good metal voices aren't common in a tv talent show.
I have no idea why Eric isn’t as famous as any of the top signers!! Beautiful and powerful voice!
Erik also did a collaboration with Dan Vasc. They covered the HEAT song Breaking the Silence. Erik was the lead singer for HEAT at one point. This cover is on Dan’s channel and it’s awesome and a little funny. Check it out.

So sad he left Skid Row. He gave life to that band. He is amazing. There should be bands lining up to get him.
That's not his focus right now..his health is why he left skid row. The touring was messing him up since he was still on medication for cancer
This is such a great reaction video. Great insight, but also the instinct to not step on the performance. Plus, your genuine appreciation of said performance (and the salute, lol) made for a great watch. All the best to you - and to Erik. HUGE thanks to you both, as well. Cheers!

Love this version
This was awesome, what talent. Love it!
Vilken makalöst stark röst han har. Sjunger gudomligt. 😊
I forget to breath when i listens to his voice...
Me too!
great reaction. first time i have heard erik singing alone. introduced to him through several collabs with dan vasc. to my ears he has the perfect amount of seemingly natural grit to his voice. this song suits his voice.
@@AitchBee01 forgot faithfully was a mashup. mae culpa
@Ken; please add Erik’s rendition of “All by myself” to your reaction segment soon. ❤
I enjoyed watching how happy you were at this!, great watch!, you sir have earned yourself another sub
I love this cover and your reaction is lovely.
Im embarrassed! I asked him if he would consider bringing that voice to Broadway. He KINDLY replied that he had actually played Simon in Jesus Christ Superstar with John Legend. I should have looked first!

Erik is also a talented singer I first heard him when sang with Dan Vasc Erik has lots on You tube now. He has his former group HEAT too. Erik is going far.
Anyone who loves 90’s-ish melodic rock, and Erik’s voice, needs to check out the record he recorded with H.E.A.T
Amazing stuff.
Quit talking!!!
@@AliceHenderson-vz7knhuh?
Goosebumps ♥️
Thank you!
I LOVE this. He is awesome! Loved your reactions to this. Thanks!! ❤
Tremendous fan.
