Tommy Körberg's most famous song is probably Anthem that he performed in the musical Chess, a great performance of a great song well worth a listen/reaction.
From what I've heard Tommy held back during the rehearsals, don't remember why but I believe he'd had a cold or something so he wanted to take it easy for the performance and she wasn't very impressed by him, so the surprise you see from Celine in the video when Tommy goes off is genuine. If you want to hear more from Tommy Körberg (the K is pronouced like "sh") you ought to listen, and preferebly react, to him singing "Anthem" from Chess. He was the original actor playing Anatoly Sergievsky and the song was written especially for him by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus, live performance at Friends Arena, Stockholm: ruclips.net/video/dlKwbavFp7g/видео.html
He thought she was a diva, which she is, and decided to troll her. He wasn't quite fond of her. Now Tommy is a diva himself but Celine is on a whole other level. Tommy seems like a down to earth human being compared to her.
Haha! I heard that too and was going to post the same! I love the shocked look on her face when he suddenly goes for it and briefly outshines her! I guess when you're Celine Dion you aren't used to someone overpowering your vocals 😂
It's true. I just watched an interview with him where he explained that his voice a bit fragile and he didn't want to strain it during the rehersal. She thought he was some half as singer and was not impresed with his skills so she almost didn't talk to him at all before the actual performance. He thought it would be fun to show of a little and did more with his vocals then he intended from the start. The rose was also a surprise.
Tommy Körberg is one of (if not THE) best male singer we have in Sweden. As a Eurovision lover, I would recommend you to check out Tommys Stad i ljus (city in lights) - the swedish eurovision entry 1988, and one of my favourite songs ever!
Tommy Körberg WAS great, sadly I think his voice got worse with age. Erik Grönwall - I will always love you - ruclips.net/video/1Hse-9Jv500/видео.html Tommy Johansson - Alone - ruclips.net/video/K7iDWCZNu4c/видео.html Chris Kläfford - Imagine - ruclips.net/video/SAp3HrQG3PQ/видео.html Luckily the current generation are just as good in my opinion, if not better. 🧐
In that case, go for the version from Melodifestivalen and not the one from Eurovision. Tommy fell ill and performed with basically no vocal capacity and +40C fever; he noticable butchered a high note due to being ill.
Tommy sings the Swedish version of this song and in that duet he’s the one with the vocal powerhouse role(similar to how Celine is the one in the English version) taking the powerhouses from both versions and pairing them up for a duet was an interesting choice but it has the unavoidable risk of coming of as a battle Personally I prefer the Tommy and Sofia pairing for the song as I find it fits the theme of the movie quite well with Sofia’s clear somewhat delicate voice as Belle and Tommy’s more bellowy and powerful tone as beast
He was sick during the rehearsal. So he only saved his voice for live performances, Celine was surprised how well he sings. Because he saved his voice in training. There was this look from Celine.Regards Jonas in Sweden.
Tommy körberg is a world class singer and one of the very best male singer we have in sweden. He is still performing at the age of 75yo and sounds better than ever ❤ PS I just love Celines reaction when he start doing his vocal runs. Please react to him singing Fait Accompli together with the famous ABBA member Benny Andersson and his orcestra. Its live from a tv show called Allsång på skansen. Beautiful song and amazing performence.
It's impressive that he's still performing. He has lost a bit of his upper range and former strength but that is very understandable in his age. A great singer indeed.
Just for fun, I think you should compare this to the official Swedish version, which you can find if you search for "Tommy Körberg Sofia Källgren Skönheten och Odjuret". Like what makes Sofia Källgren different from Celine Dion and how Tommy Körberg adapts to that.
6:14 min in it …. Everyone in Sweden knows this moment, she was acting like a diva before Tommy steping up his game, in the real live performance. She didn’t know how amazing Tommy could sing before this, and her jaw dropping face tell’s it all😊 He did this with a cold, and is the main thing his grith and rasping voice was in here, it sounds cool but Tommy could done it without any other day👌🫶
They faced off in Eurovision Song Contest in 1988 when Celine won representing Switzerland with the song Ne Partez Pas Sans Moi. Sadly Tommy was sick and his voice didn't hold. If he had performed "Stad i ljus" the way he did in the Swedish competition he might have been the winner. If you can find the version from Melodifestivalen you should check it out. Otherwise the album version. Also check out him performing Anthem from the musical Chess. There's a live performance from the Olivier Awards that is great
Everyone in Sweden knows this moment☺️, she was acting like a diva before Tommy steppades up his game, in the real live performance. She didn’t know how amazing Tommy could sing before this, and her jaw dropping face tell’s it all😊
He's entirely self taught. At one point he figured perhaps he should take some lessons. Very soon after exploring his techniquebthe vocal coach said basically "What the hell could I ever teach YOU about singing?"
This is a "joke" from Tommys side, beforehand Celine didn't think she was going to be paired up with a good singer. That's why he is a bit falmboyant. :D
Nej kompis. Han har aldrig sjungit opera. Hart ingen klassisk operaskolning alls. Han var tvärtom en popidol (i sin ungdom) med en medfödd röst som denna.
You are doing just fine with the Swedish pronounciation. However...if you want to know I guess you could say the K is pronounced like sh in she and the ö is almost like the u in burden. So Shurberg. 😊
is there a way to guesstimate who is the better singer when comparing a female and a male to each other? If so, at least judging from what we hear during this performance, what would you say?
Hello Ms Nina Scofield, please do react Lay me Down Cover by Garrett Bolden, Josh Adornado and Jong Madaliday from the Philippines again. I always watching for your reaction videos about Filipino Singers Please do react and please shout me out. 💞 thank youu hope you will notice this.❤ Godbless 😊
I’ve never Celine irritated sorry my friend Celine was more surprised by the voice tommy more than anything you have seen right after she kissed him does that qualify as being irritated? 😂😂
Once upon a time in a land far far away when people could use their voices without the "help" of computers and other random shit... I think this is an era that predates you sadly..
I would say that Tommy Körberg is Sweden's best (now living) male singer, and Helen Sjöholm is the best female singer. But with an Ö in their surname :)
I agree with Tommy but female I would say Frida from Abba is the best female from Sweden. Although she has born in Norway. Agnetha Fältskog and Helen are close to second and third.
Hi, please do react to KATRINA VELARDE'S New LIVE performance of Whitney Houston's SAVING ALL MY LOVE FOR YOU ❤ at Viva Cafe 2024. She's so amazing!!! Thank you!!! 🙏🙏🙏
The singer makes such sounds, as if he has a terrible toothache and in addition to that made such a face at the end of the vocal, as if he had just extracted a sick tooth. Definitely showing too much body and facial expression when performing this composition.
Tommy is trying to overpower celine for me he has a good voice but he is not a generous singer and goes for showoff instead of playing with the song sensual side
@@adamsamess2163 indeed. Think the one who wrote it has no clue about her lower connected dark tones . And even with vibrato. Take just a new dawn for example…. To name a tip of the iceberg
All smiles & jokes. Tommys little-boy-smirk makes it hilarious. 😂❤
I love Tommy’s smirk. Yes I know what I did. Look at Celine’s face. Priceless. ❤
Tommy Körberg's most famous song is probably Anthem that he performed in the musical Chess, a great performance of a great song well worth a listen/reaction.
and chess was written for Tommy in mind. Björn and Benny refused to cast anyone else for the part.
And Judy ny friend , and in movies and theaters and Solar Plexus band from 70s

They are both amazing singers. I saw TOMMY KÖBERG live in 1995 he was magic
Oh that’s awesome!
Tommy is amazing! The best male voice in Sweden!
He was sick during the rehearsal. So he only saved his voice for live performances, Celine was surprised how well he sings. Because he saved his voice in training. There was this look from Celine.Regards Jonas in Sweden.

When she says thank you at the end 😂😂of the
Tommy have never took a singing lesson. He has learned by him self.
Actually he had one singing lesson, but the vocal coach told him he should not change his voice one bit :)
@@ChristianPersson-lm6sk Not exactly. The man who discovered him told him not to take a singing lesson as it would make the voice worse.
I want to hear you sing moreeee
🥰
You totally missed the moment when Tommy surprised her with open up and start to sing in a way he hold back in the rehearsal.
Everyone in Sweden knows this moment☺️, she was acting like a diva before Tommy steppades up his game, in the real live performance.
She didn’t know how amazing Tommy could sing before this, and her jaw dropping face tell’s it all😊
You can't listen more than a few seconds without stopping it. Disrespectfully in the middle of the lines.
I'd really love to hear what you'd make of Peter Hammill's "The Lie".
Your hoodie is so cozy (hands in sleeves). I'm guessing that's your merch, Nina?
Yes indeed from my merch line 😊
@@ninaschofield cozy, right?
Let them sing first then analyze it after.
What Tommy Korberg is doing here, you have to explain me, Nina. He is from Sweden and I live in that country.
This is the iconic performance were tommy got the Celine meme look after he tries to outshine her
He's entirely self taught. At one point he figured perhaps he should take some lessons. Very soon after exploring his techniquebthe vocal coach said basically "What the hell could I ever teach YOU about singing?"
This is a "joke" from Tommys side, beforehand Celine didn't think she was going to be paired up with a good singer. That's why he is a bit falmboyant. :D
Tommy is an Opera singer from Sweden. You should really check him out :)
Nej kompis. Han har aldrig sjungit opera. Hart ingen klassisk operaskolning alls. Han var tvärtom en popidol (i sin ungdom) med en medfödd röst som denna.
Not an opera singer. He's done musical theatre
Tommy giving Celine run for her money and then some - made her try! 😂🤩
❤
❤️
You are doing just fine with the Swedish pronounciation. However...if you want to know I guess you could say the K is pronounced like sh in she and the ö is almost like the u in burden.
So Shurberg. 😊
Ahh thank you so much for the info!
Swedish metal head hear...And as a metal head i can just say, no one sings better then Thommy in Sweden. Maybe the Jazz singer Gennet Vikström.
You completely missed her face! 😂
is there a way to guesstimate who is the better singer when comparing a female and a male to each other? If so, at least judging from what we hear during this performance, what would you say?
He destroyed those c5s
omg i never comment on anything,but for god sake let them sing more then 3 bars before,,u comment ,i think u like ur voice better then theres???

You can tell Celine is somewhat irritated when Tommy shows off :)
No she is not . Haha just a bit surprised
Hardly, Peabo Bryson was more impressive
I’ve never Celine irritated sorry my friend Celine was more surprised by the voice tommy more than anything you have seen right after she kissed him does that qualify as being irritated? 😂😂
@@lenstgelais7376of course she wasn’t irritated 😂. I guess this person doesn’t know that she wrote in her biography that they laughed about it after

Please please can you do miley Cyrus new song and video reaction it’s gonna be off her new album ❤🎉 new music Friday
show celines aktion
I can't watch your reactions because you don't let us hear the whole song pausing it after every line they sing. I'm not being rude just being honest.
What was awkward was Tommy staring at her the entire performance. I can understand “I got you”, but then stop being creepy! 😅
tommy cryshed celin
FFS dont stop 500 times in a song thats like 4 minutes
The singer makes such sounds, as if he has a terrible toothache and in addition to that made such a face at the end of the vocal, as if he had just extracted a sick tooth. Definitely showing too much body and facial expression when performing this composition.
Are you hmm . You dont got a clue. 😢
Promo_SM 🙌
Alldeles för mycket Nina och för lite "reaction". Tona ner, du är för mycket..
sorry, you simply talk to much !
I dont hear the music you talk it to peaces.
That is kind of the point of a reaction video, to react. Not as some.people do it, just sit there all silente and then at the end goes "that wa good"
Tommy is trying to overpower celine for me he has a good voice but he is not a generous singer and goes for showoff instead of playing with the song sensual side
Part is nc she acted a bit like a diva towards him earlier
Celine is the biggest diva ever and if you read about the story why he sing like he did you will understand.
Celine and peabo bryson are the only duet to do this song properly.
Celine, as always, has a problem with the lower register of the sound.
Maybe that time but not after that year and forward for sure. She can blew him off like a leaf on a tree any second
She has a strong connected lower register I fail to see what you mean
@@adamsamess2163 indeed. Think the one who wrote it has no clue about her lower connected dark tones . And even with vibrato. Take just a new dawn for example…. To name a tip of the iceberg
No she doesn't lol
