It's most for fun, of course. But it really was a challenge and a different touch to one of the most beautiful songs ever written.

Dear Tommy, I'm from Ukraine. It's war here now. But your voice, your music is always in my head, in my ears, in my heart. It inspires me much! Thank you! Love you!
❤️🇺🇦🇸🇪
🇫🇮 ❤ 🇺🇦
Thank you! Take care over there, you are all in our thoughts!!
@@ReinXeed Thank you very much ❤️
Hope you're still ok, Kateryna. Wishing you all the best from far away. ❤
OH MY GOODNESS !!!!!!! I'm a 57 year old woman and I am speechless. God gave you a massive talent. Bless you !!!!
I am a 35 year old man and I AM speechless

I grew up in a very conservative environment, CONSTANTLY hearing "Metal singers can't sing! They are talentless noise makers!"..... Now as an adult, I see a lot of metal singers have stronger voices than most artists in other genres.
Well done Tommy!
totally agree!!!! I have the same problem at the moment
I don't think that's a conservative thing because I'm conservative and I love metal especially Tommy's voice
Me too
i think that is more of the christian conservatives and catholic conservatives perspective
Have you never heard August Burns Red??
As 60 year old man, I have no problem admitting that this rendition has brought lots of tears to my eyes and goosebumps to my skin as its just soul touching. And your rendition of O Holy Night too is heavenly, a once in a lifetime talent you have Tommy. Just beautiful.
I'm fully convinced that Tommy is one of the greatest vocalists of this generation. Such purity, clarity, and dictation, GOD. Without a doubt, one my favorites of all time.
Mine too. Him and Yannis from Beast in Black are my top two, with Tommy first, of course.
@@razzledazzleist Yes, Tommy and Yannis are my favorite singers too! 😊🤘🖤🖤🤘 I have thinking how cool it would be if Tommy and Yannis make duetto, and then Tommy with Floor too! ❤️ 😍 Those would be so epic duettos! ❤️ 😍
He is so amazing, I’m speechless, just love listening to him to him, he has the best Vocal range I’ve ever heard, it doesn’t get any better. ❤ Just a beautiful singer.
Holy God! He's got the largest spanning range of any singer that I have ever heard. Puts most 80's singers to rest quick. What a unique voice.
In 2010 I had an emergency liver transplant, it didn't look like I was going to make it, and my parents got ready to say good bye to me. This is the song that was playing when I started to wake up after I had to be in a coma. I don't remember it, but my dad told me. Thanks Tommy for this beautiful rendition, I'm in absolute tears this morning (in a good way!)
know this is late but i found him after being diagnosed with a fibroid (i didnt know what that was at the time) and thought i might die. i just went to youtube for some sad music and his phantom dual voice cover popped up on my recommended. since that day he has ''raised my spirits'' and I've been a fan ever since.
Epic vocals 🙌
funny cause i've heard him sing that Joy of Christmas song from Christmas Carol and thought he sounded a lot like Josh Groban who also sang this
Please do some reaction on your chanel.
@@marcklinker9229 if that was for me i did do one
@@KrystalHarwood-ty7rk sorry , I wanted to answer Rebecca
Been listening to metal/power metal since 2002, and I swear, one thing I've always noticed is that Sweden has the best vocalists. High notes and amazing melody have always been my thing, so this video in particular has been my favorite of yours. Fantastic job.
It is either something in their drinking water or one of the coldest places on earth.
It is just that our balls haven't fallen down yet 😅🤣
Listen to TnT - tell no tales
Finland as well 😉 🇫🇮 !
Couldn't say it any better
My God! Just when you think Tommy has reached his limit, he says "hold my beer" and raises it up even higher and higher and higher.... wow. Amazing!
i sang this in this very key many times and havent been able to breathe after..lol and i am an amateur singer. i think u outdid me tommy!
I am 80 years old + my heart breaks 4 U.❤❤❤
Jesus, my God His voice is like liquid gold. I love it!🥰🥰🥰
This man is a musical god! no kidding
too bad he hasnt gone on broadway , it'd be worth every freakin penny!
@@MadonnaMcCrae God's special living angel
My angel of music 🎶
Those octaves and perfect sound
Just imagine Tommy and Floor singing together 🤤 Please BREAKE the internet, make it happen 🙏🏻
@@spmoran4703 Right? LOTS of good money. It'd be worth every penny.
I'm thinking the same too.
Naw him and marco that would be more epic
OMG I thought the same thing!!! Make it happen!!
Naw tommy and dark sarah sounds better
Is Tommy human!? This brough me to tears...& then dancing. He gives me life!
Voice from Heaven Jesus bless you brother
No other male voice has ever moved me to tears. Tommy is music incarnate. Thank you, Tommy, for conveying all this passion through your music. You're one of a kind. Love from France
Outside the original by Secret Garden, I thought Josh Gorban's rendition was number 1. But this rendition has become number 1, for this song.
Thank God you chose the musician life.
Imagine he has been playing GUITAR for years in one of Swedens biggest band, Sabaton. Tommy has 10 times better vocals than their lead singer. Crazyness 😮
One of the BEST singers I have ever heard, and being 76 I have heard quite a few !!!!!!!!!!
Power metal is full of high note singing, awesome melodies and adrenaline. I absolutely love it.
I am from Finland and just love metal music. Even if I am 72 grandma and started to adore Elvis 64 years ago. Still listening.
Holy crap! I was already impressed with him singing in the stratosphere. But then the key change. Wow!!!
I was under attack.....your voice and song has helped set me free
That is the most impressive falsetto I have ever heard… simply brilliant.
It's his head voice, not falsetto, amazingly.
@@christianlarsson2038 If you can sing a note in falsetto, then you can sing it in head voice 'cos the only difference is head voice is fully connected.
TOMMY THAT Bb DUDE!!! I think I fell over in my chair. Anyone's mouth not leave the floor the entire song?!?!?!! Hats off man. You're an absolute legend!!!
That Bb made my jaw hit the floor like a stone (in a amazement.) WOW, that was impressive.
Haha, yeah that was something for the neighbours to enjoy in the evening, haha 😂 Thank you Ben!!! ☺️🙏
@@ReinXeed I totally wouldn't mind to be YOUR neighboor
@@ReinXeed you can become our neighbor anytime ! Ill be happy to " suffer" 😂😂
My max to hit with decency as a soprano is sadly admittedly only f lol ... laughed with absolute glee at those top notes. Lmao at thought of unfriendly neighbours getting free "concert".
Tommy’s vocal range is beyond incredible! Loved his rendition of this classic song.
В мире много красивой музыки и суперовских голосов. Но среди них и лучшие. Томми - ты ЛУЧШИЙ!!!
У меня мурашки от макушки до пяток от его голоса, своего рода "музыкальный оргазм"
I am an 81 year old great grandmother, sometimes i am sad and lonely, You raise me up, even though sometimes you make me cry.
He is such a blessing, isn't he? 🥰
God bless you grandma 😇
OH WOW! You're incredible! 😃 I'm a soprano, but THIS is a challenge for me. You woke me up in a second. 🤣 Gratulations for the high notes - double grats 👌👌👍🥇
Haha, awesome! Thank you :)
As a contralto/occasionally the tenor part, I'll just give up and go home! This was amazing 👌👏👏👏👏
Tommy is by far one of the best male vocalists in music today, in my opinion! Amazing Tommy!
Amazing.Beyond Impossible
true to that!
I'm legitimately sitting here listening, and ugly sobbing because of how moving your voice is. Tommy, you are magnificent.
You are a great guitarist and have an incredible voice! It makes me cry with emotion...Tommy Johansson, you are a person blessed by God! Hugs from your fan
Tommy..this is not human! Cant be done. And still you did it, wow! Goodbye Maria Carey, Celine Dion etc and helloooo Tommy! Absolutely fantastic!
Why can't people appreciate the 3? (I don't even like Mariah Carey) but it's possible to like all of them and you don't need to stop listening to one person in order to listen to another!
@@vervideosgiros1156 i appreciate people making music, i dont appreciate the radio stations everywhere repeating the same 5 songs over and over all day
Unbelievable - I had my wife listen and she stood up and gave me a standing ovation - I'm guessing that might have been for you but I took it as one for me
I grew up listening to the best of the best. 1970's Rob Halford and klaus Meine.....Bruce Dickenson...... it's nice to finally know who has the greatest male voice in history. Congrats Tommy........ it's you!!
Vi behöver den här på Spotify! ❤
I am so totally impressed by Youré vocals! Äsh som svensk är jag totalt imponerad! Bara din vokala stämma är underbar, men det jag gillar är din bredd och att du vågar! Tack, Tommy! För att du låter mig våga utmana min röst!
I'm crying so hard I can barely type. I lost my daddy two months ago. I'm fifty and he was still Daddy. He loved this song. Your perfect voice brought back so many good memories for me. Thank you so much.
I'm speechless by that performance. I asked my girlfriend who is quite a good singer she couldn't go nowhere as high as you did at the end haha ! Amazing performance !
I shared this song with a friend. A few minutes later, she told me she was literally crying by the song's end.
My god. Tommy is too powerful.
I'm speechless...
Cause MY vocal chords've felt this 😂
Tommy you're a king
You know Tommy, my love to metal music reaches over four decades already, so I would say that I have heard a lot of it. You are incredibly talented musician but what makes you even greater, is your appearance which tells me how much you love music and making of it. Keep on rocking there is only few of your kind in the world🤘
Tommy, din röst får mig orka igenom dagarna. Jag blir lika mållös varje gång jag hör din version av You raise me up. Jag tänker då på min mamma som lämnade jorden alldeles för tidigt. Har spelat den här vid hennes grav, jag är övertygad om att hon ler i sin himmel. Ingen röst i världen kan mäta sig med din. Var stolt över din gåva. All kärlek till dig ❤❤❤
Vad fint sagt! Tack så mycket för det!! Beklagar verkligen sorgen!
Grazie mille Maestro, per questa inarrivabile prestazione. ❤️
Men, what a scale of your vocal. I'm singer too. Very beautiful sound of your voixe. Hail from Poland!!! Your head voice is so powerful. No one in this world can sing like you. I'm very big fan of you. Men, you are master!!!
Tommy is an amazing vocalist with an incredible range. I also suspect that he's a musical genius. I've listened to his Disney-ton version of Swedish Pagans an embarrassingly amount of times because it's just so damn good.
I know, right? I discovered Tommy on UA-cam several years ago, before I even heard of Sabaton, I think. After a couple of songs, I thought to myself, "Wow, this guy is simultaneously one of the best singers *and* one of the best guitarists I've ever heard!"
OMG Tommy, you had me in tears over breakfast this morning. You are totally amazing, those high notes were perfect and just beautiful all the way through, you are so talented. Thank you for sharing this with us ❤
Thank you for those kind words Pauline! :)
@@ReinXeed you're very deserving and welcome 🙏
Wow, I’m having breakfast too!
This song, this version, this cover has become my anthem and could be the world's one. F A N T A S T I C. Pure magic.
Stunning, amazing, unbelievable.. We could could go on Tommy, but that was simply incredible!
Wow, I didn't think You could sing that high. Now I admire your vocal talent even more. Generally musical talent, because you are also a great guitarist 🔥🎸 For me, four in the morning is the perfect time to browse UA-cam 😄 Take care and we are waiting for another videos ❤
Glad to hear that, thank you very much Marta!! 😃
You have no idea how many times i listened to the video of him and christian Eriksson singing twilight force songs together ❤ just to hear the high notes lol
The voice of an angel.
Вот так выглядит счастье ❤
Like many of your current followers what I find most intriguing and enjoyable is the clarity of you're voice and diction. I can actually understand what you're singing.
Would love to hear you and Dan Vasc do something together. 2 of the best voices I've ever heard together..... stuff dreams are made of.
LOVE LOVE LOVE your sense of humour too!!! This was Epic. Have listened 5 times already. Heading for round 6❤
When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary
When troubles come and my heart burdened be
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence
Until You come and sit awhile with me.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be.
You raise me up to more than I can be.
Absolutely incrdible Tommy! I have no words to explain what feelings you arouse even in me as a grown man.
Du får mig faktiskt stålt över att Sverige har skapat en sån faktiskt artist! 👏
Absolutely wonderful, Your music makes me feel like even with illness and war. So there is hope to unite humanity, through music!
☺️☺️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
What a masterpiece ❤ cried like 10 minutes straight ❤❤🎉
You and Dan Vasc make me smile 😊
Time 2:58 ...... getting goosebumps all over my body.... Once again, Tommy nailed it with those beautiful whistle notes. Always did love your rendition of music. Enjoy life....Enjoy music.....spread love.....peace out.
I shared your video with my speech therapist, needless to say she was blown away. She is going to share it with one of her other patients who is trying to get her singing voice back.
The best of the best singer
🥰♥️😍❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍💘💝💖💗💓💞💕💟♥️❣️❤️🔥
King Of Vocal
with such an amazing voice, when you unpack it, the glass must crack. It's unbelievable and maybe impossible to sing like that. Angelic voice.
Im so impressed! These are whistle notes, for crying out loud (happy-accident-pun)!
Mindblowingly good.
Thank you for this delicious treat.
Greets from Bollnäs
I can only hit those notes when I stub my little toe on a table leg
Thank you very much från Boden!! ☺️🙏
Wow. You can turn songs I don't like into rock masterpieces and I love them. Thank you so much.
🙌Fantastic Song Fantastic Performance💋
I can’t even gather the right words at how absolutely amazing this was.
One is no longer surprised by the range and your singing quality, and I mean in the a good and respectful way, one can only listen, enjoy and be happy, thanks Tommy, you are my favorite singer, a place that was held by Freddy Mercury
Wow, powerful words!! Thank you! ☺️🙏🙏
Listening to Tommy's voice is like having your soul scrubbed clean. Thankyou so much
this song is more proof that Tommy can sing ANYTHING.... it was such a treat to listen to this... thank you Tommy.. 🙂
When you wake up on Monday morning and your first thought is checking current war reports to see if the world still exists , coming across that song was like a message from God. Angel voice . Thank you for giving me hope .
As a Brazilian, Andre Matos is my greatest reference to power metal vocals.. But, Tommy is becoming a heck of legend too... What a guy!!!
Have you checked out Dan Vasc, also Brazilian? He covered Carry On as a tribute
Heaven is in Tommy's gift.....wow what a gift!
Thank you. You are using your voice for The Kingdom.
It’s a shame that youtube won’t let us multiple-like your video!
Ja, fantastiskt räcker ju inte riktigt här, snarare helt otroligt fantastiskt !!! 👏👏👏
A Great Voice ...indeed...without a shadow of a doubt...!.....👏🤟💪
Супер дякую за гарну пісню творчіх успіхів вам
Awww, I love this song. Tommy is a really great vocalist. Very versatile and capable. I love his voice. ❤
As always, you are amazing Tommy 🥰👌

" You Raise Me Up"
by composer, Rolf Løvland is a SONG to be framed. And that you are now singing this is of course completely Amazing. And with your voice 🎸🎶 Excellent choice...👌 TOMMY Thank you 👍💙
The original is great and unfortunatly very underated… Thank you!! ☺️
It was used for Romeo X Juliet a anime
God has blessed us with you. However I'm feeling, you always have the right song. You're always there for me. Love you❤
Hi Tommy! My 8yo daughter is a big fan! She's been requesting to listen to this almost everyday. 😂 Here's what she wants to tell you: "I love your music! It's very nice!"
Thanks for being an inspiration! 💕😊
The best octave range I’ve ever heard. Well done Tommy!
Almost a year when I seen Tommy for the first time! What a pleasant surprise, beautiful vocals, beautiful person.❤️😍He is something else, gorgeous 🥰
Tommy, bravo for the encore!!!! And continue to delight us with your creativity!!!! You are one of the best in the world in the direction of rock and
metal!!!! I am writing this to you from my own experience, and my experience is very rich - 25 years of training on percussion instruments!!!!
This was awesome! 💯👍 At first I thought it was AI-made but naahh, this is an example of talent and a voice that is just awesome! Thanks Tommy!
Wahnsinn, super Stimme, Tommy.❤
Wow, the most beautiful Voice and the best Version of this Song. Thank you so very much

Tommy J: I'm speechless. I just forwarded this video to a world-renown vocal coach to get his feedback, which I will share with you when I hear back from him. Amazing!
Go Tommy!!! I can honestly see you singing this song like this maybe...
Слов нет ,одни эмоции,слов не подобрать,да и не надо ,просто слушаем и наслаждаемся
Great Voice ...without a doubt.....!😯😯
Tears streaming down my face...im blown away Tommy..i just found out what song i want on my funeral ❤❤❤
Amazing vocals!
A voice like thousand angels. 🤩 Fantastic 👍
What a shock ! Tommy I just discovered you with this cover and I can't get over it. Your voice is so crystal clear and powerful (thank god you don't use vibrato). It's an incredible performance, and this metal version is just perfectly done. Tonight you gave me a moment of paradise, I listened to an angel and I cried with happiness. Thank you !
sang this for mother's day at church last year. hit the high notes with confidence after practicing with THIS. thank u tommy
