- Finally it's time to make this glorious song!
When I heard the end of this song on VH1 at the age of 15 I knew I wanted to become a singer and went online and BOUGHT a Skid Row album without knowing the name of the song or which album it was on.
A week later it came in the mail, and at the end of song nr 5 I knew it was the right one and it changed my life forever!
"18 & life" - Skid Row
Written by: Rachel Bolan Southworth and Michael Sabo David
From the album "Skid Row" - 1989

Ricky was a young boy
He had a heart of stone
Lived 9 to 5 and he worked
His fingers to the bone
Just barely out of school
He came from the edge of town
Fought like a switchblade
So no one could take him down, oh no
He had no money
No, no good at home
He walked the streets a soldier
And he fought the world alone and now it's
18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time and it's
18 and life to go
18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time
And it's 18 and life to go
Tequila in his heartbeat
His veins full of gasoline
He kept his motor running
But it never kept him clean
They say he loved adventure
Ricky's the wild one
He married trouble
And had a courtship with a gun
Bang-bang shoot 'em up
The party never ends
You can't think of dying
When the bottle's your best friend and now it's
18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time and it's
18 and life to go
18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time
And it's 18 and life to go, ye-yeah
Accidents will happen?
They all heard Ricky say
He fired his six-shot to the wind
That child blew a child away, ye-yeah
18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time and it's
18 and life to go
18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time
And it's 18 and life to go
Everything Tommy touches is just golden. He took an already popular song and breathed new life, new fire into it. Excellent job Tommy , another phenomenal hit
I would love him to do queensrchye
He’s fantastic. Damn but he is just incredible.
I agree whit you
Thank you!! Glad to hear that! :)
@@ReinXeed Tack för dage a
Tommy sings, plays guitar, bass, and drums. His level of talent is amazing!
El piano también 😊
This is so Damn Crazy, He Just does this song with no problem at all. I am sitting here with my mind Blown. What the Hell!!!
TOMMY +JOHANSSON = PURE PERFECTION 🥰 ❤✨️🇺🇸🫶🤘🏻🤘🏻😇💓😍😍😍😍🤟🫶🤟🫶🤟🫶🤟🫶🫂🫂
Genius musician.
Not an easy song to sing by any stretch of the imagination. Absolutely awesome.
The best version since Bach! #SkidRow needs to get Tommy!
a mild mannered boy.. they wouldnt like him lol
@@user-mq5dr1jh5t I think they'd like that, as it is Bach's attitude and superiority complex that got him kicked out of the band and why they refuse to take him back.
Damn ... When he hit those high notes, I was smiling from ear to ear and crying from joy at the same time. I've always loved this song and this cover blew me away (no pun intended) Now I'll be going down the rabbit hole of watching other videos from Tommy!
Tommy is the best thing that has happened in a long time. Unbelievably great singing voice!🤘
Thank you! 😃
@@ReinXeed looking forward to tomorrow's live chat!
fact
❤❤❤Gold and brillant voice and perfection guitar. I am again in a power rock metal. Thank You, Tommy ❤❤❤
Totally on par with Sebastian Bach! and the guitars too! bravo!
Not an easy track given the incredible voice of Sebastian Bach, but you nailed it Tommy. Awesome 🤘
Thank you! Glad to hear that :)
@@ReinXeed no one likes the live version. people were always getting into fights during this song in his concerts lol
Sebastian,também é um fenónimo do rock,que voz maravilhosa que ele tem
Tommy the master of all genres.... Totally blessed..🙏💯
🔥🎸🔥
Perfect metal singer. 12/10.
Still listening 80s - 18 and life you got🍻🍺- Best Real Rock ever made. Tommy Johansson - Good voice and guitar - Thank you!
This is always such a powerful song, but the raw emotion Tommy puts into it is just amazing!! Tommy takes this to a new level!
Really 🤟
Thank you!! 😊🙏
@@ReinXeed varsågod!
Miluji
That song is absolutely fabulous, it takes me back to the 80s and my heart is beating fast ❤❤😍🎸🎶
I feel very old when he does some of these songs.
@@jackieyu4787 Me too because I was a little girl when this song was released
😃🙏
@@jackieyu4787 lol. Same. I saw them live in 93’ 😂. Us senior citizens 😂
@@serenavitto8077 I had 3 children when this song was released. Thanks Tommy for helping the elderly 😆
Tremendous interpretation of a classic from that Band. Congratulations on your talent boy.
My God! My heart is falling out.... my favourite song from my teenage period! Tommy, is fantastic!!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Great cover, I still remember seeing Tommy live before the Sabaton concert in Omsk in 2020. He was alone, without protection, and just walked around the city. My friend and I approached him and without any problems or refusals we took a picture with him. The most important thing in Tommy is charisma, he just exudes it in all directions and being with him is very cool and pleasant.
Thank you very much for those kind words!! ☺️🙏 I remember that day! 😃😃
That was a nice tour, alot of air flights but a nice tour ☺️
Tommy is very down to earth. I would love to meet him
@@ReinXeed Metalcover with Erik Grönvall(that now days have 18 & life almost like "his song") & a third singer on Al for love (Adams,Sting & Stewart) or no? Föresten när kommer den andra samarbetet mellan dig och Erik Grönvall som planerades att hamna på din kanal?
Eres un genial 👌
80s heavy metal + Tommy = Best of the best
On top of the boat load of talent that is Tommy Johansson he is a genuinely nice person. So refreshing in this age of over hyped low talent individuals who are more interested in their look and stage name than real music.
Saw a reaction and Snake from Skid Row was watching it too - he loved it.
A song from 1989.Let's be honest, this song is never gonna get old. Amazing Tommy !
The best 18 & life cover of all time... Congratulation from Italy guy!
Какое исполнение, какая музыка, какой голос!!!!!❤
Damn you can carry those notes your range is out of this world❤
I just pleasantly keep tumbling down a Tommy rabbit hole 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Tommy + Skid Row = perfect combo. Nothing else to say, this man never stops to amaze us 🎸
Tommy is money!! I’m a diehard 80’s rock fan and to see a young guy covering these songs is so fricken awesome! Keep them coming man I love it! 🤘🤘
I agree
Tommy is straight up transferred from the 80's
@@denypriyawan7650 I will thank you
I don’t think I can quite convey how amazing that was. I think we need a solo album from Tommy.
Yes we do!
definitely!
I saw them live back in the day. Tommy just gives me Goosebumps.
lucky SOB! lol i have not seem them once. I live near the boston area and hoped to see them at house of blues. turns out it hasnt been on their schedule since 2023.
And just like that, Tommy transports us all back to the late 80's and High School...... When we first heard Sebastian Bach screaming out these notes, we were completely BLOWN AWAY by the sheer force and power of his vocals. I can honestly say, having heard this song for nearly 35 years now, Tommy's version is SO MUCH MORE POWERFUL than the original. He shows such love, admiration, and respect to the original it's palpable. The guitar tones, the emotion, the atmosphere...... it's ALL THERE!!! Thanks for making this near 50 year old 15 year old feel like a high school headbanger again! Well done, Maestro! Well done indeed!
Come on, Tommy... why do you choose the songs that go straight to my teenage heart and make me cry??? I feel like 16 again.
God damn it. You make me cry AGAIN! Love everything you do man, you're the best ❤❤❤
His voice is so beautiful. He can sing anything
I love this song and I love Sebastian Bach.
You gave me goosebumps.
What a beautiful voice.
Just wonderful ❤🎸🎸
Saint Martin-day 😇

This Classic will never grow old nor will the meaning ever change.
This Song give me chills

That ending scream
masterly 🪄
Amazing voice, you range is from another
planet Tommy 🎸😎
Thanks 🌻🇳🇱
Holy shit….. wow !
🙈😂😂😂👍👋
Fantástic
This guy is rock n roolll Classic
🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👏👏
I've always been emotional but this actually had a tear in my eye it was that good skid row would be proud my man
No words!!! Just marvelous! Tommy we need them on apple music!
Hail to the Swedish Pagan!
Holy mother of god! I nearly forgot to breathe!!!
Wow! I thought Sebastian Bach was good but this guy blows him out of the water. I love this song. I'm 63 and will never grow too old to know and appreciate a great voice when I hear it. Great looking guy as well.
😃🙏🙏🙏
and much more polite lol@@ReinXeed
❤🤘👍🎸🎙️🎤💪🎹🥰🎸🎙️🎤💪
@maureenrichards2560 With due respect... Sebastian Bach is different class. Iconic frontman and a rock star. This guy is a great singer though.
@@wallz5297 definitely different lol different attitudes as well
Hope for tomorrow with kids recognizing great music and duplicating that sound to perfection.
by far the most talented member in Sabaton
Listening to this song took me back to my 16 years. Thanks Tommy for the wonderful interpretation 🤘🤘😍😍❤❤❤❤❤🎸🎸🎸🎶🎶🎶
Same feeling here.
Thank you!! 😊🙏
I was a teenager back then loved this song and " in a darkened room " .
Tommy, you take a song, make it your own and magic occurs. You make me love every single song you touch! Thanks for sharing your passion with the world.
You blew this one out the stadium. Instant Homerun and its a great rendition of this 80s classic. I still rank Skid Rows debut album as one of the best debut albums ever in the hard rock genre.
Did you know that Gary Moore sold the rights to use his old bands name to the band most people know as Skid Row?
Have a great Friday and weekend Tommy and everyone else reading this. 🚀
Thank you!! I didn’t know that, cool info 😊👍
Back in 1989, I was let's say fresh in \m/ Metal \m/. 15 years old. It started with Helloween as I was 14, one year later this masterpiece came out. And from the first tone it blasted me away. The power of this song catched me and now, 33 years later, it still catches me.
Your version is great, it stands the comparision with the original.
🔥👍🖐️🌏🌎🌍👍
Absolutely Amazing...I'm 💯 speechless!! Bravo Tommy!!🤘🔥🤘🎸🎵🎶
Wow very amazing...good job best for you forever music never die.. tommy reinxeed majestica memories of old n sabaton golden resurrection..
Oh, boy, that´s singing in it´s `purest. Magnificent voice and tempo. Keep on doing like this!!!
Dudes got pipes.
Это как раз тот случай, когда сначала ставишь like, а потом наслаждаешься прекрасным исполнением. =) Томми, вы - большой талант. Спасибо за ваши творчество, мы следим за ним. This is exactly the case when you first put like, and then enjoy a wonderful performance. =) Tommy, you are a great talent. Thank you for your creativity, we are following him.
четко поет Парень. Прям большущий Респект ему
@@lex4901 неплохо поет эту песню Юлия Иванова. посмотрите в ютубе
I like the fact he's not straining his voice. I like it that way. He got the old rock style. Keep it going. It's awesome
With love from Kazakhstan!
I just can't get over this one. I loved Skid Row, loved Sebastian Bach's voice and sincerely thought no-one would ever sing it better. I'd been on the fence for two months, but...Tommy is better. And it is a glorious, breathtaking song. Thank you for putting all your powers into this and all the other songs you take on!🤩🤘💯

Не Себастьян конечно,но прикольно получилось!Это же гитарист из Sabaton если не ошибаюсь?!

En absolut favorit låt! Klockrent 🤘🤘 de blir repeat och rätt in i playlist.

I lived in the 80s, the music was and still is something special. You make me feel the 80s again, that time was just great 😂
Thank you Tommy ❤️
Perfect, so alive and so energetic.
This masterful interpretation goes straight to my heart. I suddenly feel very emotional.
his guitar playing and vocals are excellent
I keep listening to this one look up the original and all the other redos I believe I love this one over the rest because you made it yours everyone else are being knock offs I get goose bumps from yours so thank you for doing such an awesome job wow awesome
Awesome!!! Perfect.
Hugs from Brazil.
Yey man I love your SCREEEAMS,and your hair...give it to me. In 1991 I was a teenager working 5 summer weeks with taking care of older people. Earning some money for the trip to Stockholm and the concert with Skid Row and G'n'r. Oh man it was a moment I never ever forget. And now my daughter is loving my tour t-shirts from two bad-ass bands. Thx Tommy from a crispy Norrland.🤘🏻😜🤘🏻🎸🎙🎸with so much löööve.😁
One of Skid Row's best songs, great song cover! Rock on!
BRILLIANT, Tommy - fantastic cover!!!!!!!
Tommy is definately the chosen one! That voice and his musicality! And on top of everything, he's adorable!❤❤❤
Perfect! The guitar solo is more beautiful than the original and the voice is spectacular!!!!!!
You are a phenomenon
This is MY teenage years & you made my day!! I saw Skid Row in 1990 & this blows me away! Absolutely incredible! Thank you!
Sung with such meaning, feeling and attitude 🥰
I can't believe that song is 33 years old, I was 17 when it came out. Tommy you bought it back to life 😁
@ReinXeed ❤❤❤❤ You are just one of those phenomenal all round artists…phenomenal vocals, instrumental ability, arrangement ability and production ability….Tommy, you need to be recognised worldwide for your talent!!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Absolutely amazing
I love your voice and this song is incredible.
What I love the most is, that you make every song your own and make it sound sooooooooo much better than the original song.
I think “Hey, it’s Friday-what’s next Tommy?” And BOOM! A favorite 80’s tune springs back to life! Great work-and thank you!
Perfect metal👏👏👏👏👏
This just me shot back to when I was rocking Skid Row on a pretty constant run. Time of my life! Great job here! You can yell/sing with the best of em!
I love your version!😍😍🤩🤩🤩 It sounds magical! Wow!!! It worths for putting the alarm clock (5:09 am) to wake up and enjoy this song and your voice. What a great way🔥 to start the weekend. Thank you Tommy, love u♥️ 🇲🇽
I love it! Tommy's voice is amazing! ♡♡
Я даже не подозревала, что эту песню можно ТАК спеть!❤🎉 Столько эмоций передаёт Томми в своём исполнении! 😊❤ Бесподобно! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
WOW!👍Love, love, love!❤️👌
En favorit låt från ungdoms tiden som du gjorde fantastiskt bra. Tack Tommy för att fredagar numera är Tommy johansson dag och ny cover dag. Nu har man julafton varje fredag. 🤘❤🤘🖤🤘
Härligt att höra!! Julafton är ju bra! 😁👍
@@ReinXeed snälla underbara Tommy kan du inte spela jullåtarna du spelade i december förra året. Det gav oss ljus och hopp i mörkret och pandemin. Vi var många som önskade att du skulle ge ut en skiva med dem. De var sagolikt vackert 😀🌲⛄ julafton är kul och att få en klapp i form av en ny cover varje fredag är helt underbart. Du gör ingen besviken 😀❤💯
Du är Magisk!!!❤️
All lycka och kärlek till dig!🙏❤️
One of the greatest voices in modern metal takes on one of the greatest 80's glam rock classics and the result is *chef's kiss* perfect! Your voice was made for bangers like this one
This video is why I subscribed 🔥🖤🔥
I don't know what to say anymore. There is nothing that doesn't sound incredible when Tommy's takes over. I can only repeat myself. You are an amazing amazing artist that just make every song, every genre every note your own. Now I wait until you sing some opera aria and turn it into your metal sound. You are an outstanding artist. Thank you for this song 🥰🙏
WOW. Thank you Tommy for the Skid Row tribute. I know all of us look forward to Friday awaiting for your next song.
Damn bro you gave me the chills
That was awesome
Damn, you gave me frigging goose bumps. Absolutely Awesome!
That is some hard melodies to take on. At first I was like oh boy, here we go again. But he kept me going and I was like, he's doing it, he's actually doing it! 🤘💯
This kid can sing...this I know.
Tommy is 38 years old!!!!
@@hans-jorgfedermann5707 like I said. A very talented kid.
En riktig pärla igen! 😮👍🏻
Nailed it.... Mic drop..... nothing more to be said. Except, pure gold. 🤘🤘
