@@barryb90 No he did. Erik has a much stronger voice. No doubt. But Vince had a style that he created and helped create one of the biggest bands in the 1980s. The whole reason you know of this song is because of Vince and the band's style. I don't know how old you are, but going by your name i'm going to assume you were born in 1990, so you didn't see the impact Motley Crue had on the 80s music scene. I think you're enamoured with Erik's power, perfect pitch and range and I'm right there with you. It's why i subscribed. But there's a certain energy that comes with creating a song that most cover singers can't replicate. It's a creator's vibe that can be mimicked but not replicated. That said, I love this guy. He has one of the best voices i've heard in a long time.
I saw skid row with Erik 2 summers ago in Canada at a music festival in Burlington Ontario and he absolutely killed it. Sorry to say this Erik im a huge Bach fan but halfway through the first song I was like this guy is amazing they don't need Bach back. Erik you put skid row back on the map. I hope nothing g but the best for you. You totally won me over. Keep up the great work and can't wait to see you again
This is the first time ever that I’ve actually understood the lyrics on this song 😅 Bad ass as alway Erik 💪💪💪 and a big thumb up to the band! Awesome cover as usual.
Erik deserves all greetings, and so do the band. But this lead guitar guy made Mick Mars such justice that I needed to say. Wonderful song, and Mr. Mars guitar is the soul of it. Marvelous job!
Hey Erik and the guys thank you so much for Kick starting my 55 year young Heart today. Give someone a smile today they are free people. 🤘Rock Hard and Ride Free Brian.
Absolutely Amazing Erik!! Erik u Are Blessed my Friend!! U Can do Anything & Everythìng!! Erik u have a Super Power From are God!! Erik we All ❤ u & Need U!! God Bless U & Family!! All the Best!!🙏🏻☮️🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I'm 54 and have a 17-year-old son who loves Crue and Skid Row but I told him those are the two bands I'd never see again... just isn't the same. I was so wrong. Wasn't paying attention. Missed the Dallas show this past yr, but just told my husband we won't miss the next one. Amazing talent!
Erik you can song it all, you can own it all. You have a sublime voice. You're one of the great. I appreciate everything you do, everything you say. Take care of yourself. I ❤ u Erik.
DUDES !!!!,,,one of my favorite bands and songs.... I just wanted to say that this rendition is absolutely incredible! Your passion and talents really shine through, and you've all done an amazing job capturing the energy of the original. Keep rocking and making awesome music. Vince would be jealous 👽🙃
The voice is clearly out of the ordinary, the personality is what makes you the top class artist you are! no matter the song, band or challenge, there are few who can give this love in every song . ❤️🔥
Слушаю подборку каверов на крутые группы всех времен и народов. Не думала , что каверы могут так классно звучать. Есть много талантливых исполнителей , которые дают второе дыхание знаменитым творениям.
Wow Erik!! You kickstarted my heart! I love that you pronounce every word clearly, keep up with that fast tempo and look like you all are having fun! Love to the musicians as well.
OMG, this is a Christmas present. Erik, thank you, the song puts me in such a good mood and I dance around the house. Thanks also for the great performance, Philip, Jona und Jens, you obviously had fun.
Dude, what the hell? Wow! I've never heard of any of these guys or ever seen them before, but this was fucking amazing. Not only the vocals, but man that drummer was killin it. Hell yeah gentlemen. 👊👊👊👊👊
Erik this is another killer example of your vocal range this is mind boggling... Even the original didn't have this much power on the vocals..... Totally killer
Great cover as always - but the biggest part of the fun for me is always trying to recognize the guest musicians. 😁 This time Jens Anderson form the fantastic Crazy Lixx! 🤘😎 Don’t know the guy on drums yet, but will certainly look up his band afterwards! Thanks for putting a spotlight on these guys, Erik! 👍

Awesome! That would be Billy Jeffs. You'll find his Instagram in the video description :)
meanwhile, Vince Neil just gobbled up another jelly donut...... I have a feeling Tommy and Nikki are going to be giving Erik a call.....can you imagine Erik just being the lead singer to every 80's metal band at the same time? because he simply sings better.
Look, I know aging rock stars with their declining skillset can be a polarizing and contentious topic. But man, I don't ever want to hear you talking about jelly donuts that way again.
Holy shit man! I have been a fan and been listening since you won Idol here in svedala! I still remember when you blew the roof of the building with your Iron maiden cover! I still get goosebumps just thinking about it. And this version of one of my favorite bands is epic! Sounds actually better then the original especially these days. As a Swede I can be proud having you out there representing the awesome talent we have in our country. And the band sounds really good. Grymt Jobbat Erik!!! Love hemifrån svedala! 💙💛💙

Stort tack! Uppskattar supporten. Ser fram emot att flyga hem till Sverige igen :)
What the heck just happened here? Wow! In my senior yearbook I listed that as my favorite song. Over the years it's collected dust, especially after hearing Vince trying to sing it. Thanks for breathing fresh life into it...just wow!
Oh wow Cool. We Swedes must stick together LOL I grew up next door with my Swedish grandma. I’ve always wanted to visit Sweden. My email is Mjsvenska.. I took German in college & I believe many words are similar. I’ve been playing music all my life. My parents entertained. Dad sat me in a chair on stage when I was a toddler with my Gibson bass on my lap. He bought it new in 1948 when he was young. I still have it. What I can’t imagine is how I held down those big fat bass strings with my tiny little girl fingers. Haha I have a pic of me about 3 yr old with that bass next to me. You’re incredible! Thx for your kindness. Have a wonderful day!
Oj, oj, oj Erik , tack för denna! Vilken musik och energi du förmedlar! Och som alltid världens bästa stämma kombinerat med ditt gäng, ni är grymma 🔥👑🙏
Erik Gronwall. Born 1987. Established 2009. Making Rock music great again 2023.
haha
🎸🙋♀️Yes he is!
Fuck yeah
I like him better than listening to Vience. I'm just saying.
Oh my god. MOTLEY CREW CALL THIS MAN!!!!!!
😁🙏🏻
Dude.. You're how Vince Neil WISHES he ever sounded. Great cover. Kudos to ALL involved.
In all fairness, Vince sounded like this back in the day. He had his own style. He just let himself go way down...
Agree 💯🤘
@@TheSkinsFactoryInc He didn't though. This lad is levels above Vince in his prime, and definitely couldn't replicate the studio albums live.
@@barryb90 No he did. Erik has a much stronger voice. No doubt. But Vince had a style that he created and helped create one of the biggest bands in the 1980s.

I am not usually a fan of covers but damn that man got some lungs. He is amazing.
First time I ever heard this song where the lyrics were legible
Fantastic job done by everyone… it’s great to finally hear what clear, crisp lyrics sound like on a Crue song.
😂 I came here to comment the exact same thing haha 👍🏻
Same! I was thinking "Oh those are the lyrics!" 😂
@MsDivineAZ yeah me too haha!
Yup. Ditto.
Or even tangible ones for that matter.
Oh, those are the lyrics! Outstanding cover Erik!!
Long lost in the Vince-mumble-lingo for quite some time now *lol*
I just said the same thing! 😂
I thought the same thing!!
Exactly what I was thinking
Holy shit! I could actually understand the entire song for the first time in years!
In my opinion Erik could easily replace any singers from any band he’s definitely been blessed with a golden voice great cover as usual 🤟
Wow, thanks!
Very very easy...
I saw skid row with Erik 2 summers ago in Canada at a music festival in Burlington Ontario and he absolutely killed it. Sorry to say this Erik im a huge Bach fan but halfway through the first song I was like this guy is amazing they don't need Bach back. Erik you put skid row back on the map. I hope nothing g but the best for you. You totally won me over. Keep up the great work and can't wait to see you again
Except sebastian Bach...
This is the first time ever that I’ve actually understood the lyrics on this song 😅
Bad ass as alway Erik 💪💪💪 and a big thumb up to the band! Awesome cover as usual.
Thank you!
I was thinking the same thing
2024 Skid Row and Motley Crue tour together and Erik sings for both bands.
Erik deserves all greetings, and so do the band. But this lead guitar guy made Mick Mars such justice that I needed to say. Wonderful song, and Mr. Mars guitar is the soul of it. Marvelous job!
Yes Erik!!! I’ve wanted my band to do this for ages!!!! This is your best cover yet!!!!
I almost agree.....It's going to be hard to beat PAINKILLER though!!!!
Cool !!!
Shattered is my favorite
Hey Erik and the guys thank you so much for Kick starting my 55 year young Heart today. Give someone a smile today they are free people. 🤘Rock Hard and Ride Free Brian.

A collab between Erik and Tommy Johansson would be an outer world experience!!
And Chris Davidsson.... wow
Now we're talking!
Did happen😃

Out of this world! Some of those notes 😱🙌
I'm 54 and have a 17-year-old son who loves Crue and Skid Row but I told him those are the two bands I'd never see again... just isn't the same. I was so wrong. Wasn't paying attention. Missed the Dallas show this past yr, but just told my husband we won't miss the next one. Amazing talent!

You sound 1000x better then Vince ever has. And I an a true Crue fan since 1983. Keep on rockin Erik
Totally agree. Every song would sound BETTER with Erik...

С П А С И Б О 🤘 🤘 🤘
WOW!!!! One of my favorite bands of all time. You have done Crue justice! Wouldn't be surprised if they contacted you. Amazing job!!! Cheers!
Hehe thanks Steven
Me before clicking on the video: oooooh, this is gonna sound so much better than the original!
Me while listening: I was right! 🤘😁🤘
That was sooo good. I grew up in the 80s and motley crue was one of my fave bands....Vince would be envious!!!
Whoa! Yeah! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥
Those gang vocals on the hook - Erik u killin it!
Wow!! You nailed it again! Great cover for you to have done! You sure can get up there with your voice. Awesome job! You sure are still kicking Ass! ❤
🎸🙋♀️Haha Yes he is!
This is sooo amazing! Love it! Your signature style can be heard throughout the song. ❤❤
Thanks! 👊🏻

Finally, someone who can sing Mottlycrùx songs.
The voice is clearly out of the ordinary, the personality is what makes you the top class artist you are! no matter the song, band or challenge, there are few who can give this love in every song .
❤️🔥
Oh wow, thank you!

Omg! Almost 40,000 views in one day! Everything you deserved is happening for you. It’s nice to finally understand the lyrics to this song!
Dude, what the hell? Wow!
I've never heard of any of these guys or ever seen them before, but this was fucking amazing.
Not only the vocals, but man that drummer was killin it.
Hell yeah gentlemen. 👊👊👊👊👊
Thank you so much dude! :D
@@BillyF2LJeffs No, thank YOU sir, for sharing that with the world. Keep rockin'!
Thanks man!
@ 👊👊👊
I just watched it again, and I swear the vocals and drums are just phenomenal. I mean both sounded fucking amazing!
Erik this is another killer example of your vocal range this is mind boggling... Even the original didn't have this much power on the vocals..... Totally killer
Erik..OMG!💥🤩I love Mötley Crüe and this old Crüehead is totally in love❤🤘just amazing job!👏
Great cover as always - but the biggest part of the fun for me is always trying to recognize the guest musicians. 😁
This time Jens Anderson form the fantastic Crazy Lixx! 🤘😎
Don’t know the guy on drums yet, but will certainly look up his band afterwards! Thanks for putting a spotlight on these guys, Erik! 👍
Awesome! That would be Billy Jeffs. You'll find his Instagram in the video description :)
I love that song ❤. You and the guys did an amazing job. Thank you so much for all the covers. They are fantastic Will there be a vinyl #2 sometimes?
Thank you Michaela. Oh yes. Getting ready for Eriksplanations vol 2, just need to do a post and vote about which songs to put on it.
OMG! It’s like an explosion of energy and rock n’ roll!! Huge!! 🤩🤩🤘🏼🤘🏼🔥
Well fucking done @erikgronwall! Crue should be calling anytime now 🤘🤘👍
meanwhile, Vince Neil just gobbled up another jelly donut...... I have a feeling Tommy and Nikki are going to be giving Erik a call.....can you imagine Erik just being the lead singer to every 80's metal band at the same time? because he simply sings better.
He is too busy in SkidRow 😉
I watched on RUclips, MC live show during their prime (80's) . Vince was a good live singer.
Bye bye, Vince, Axl and Sebastian 👋
Look, I know aging rock stars with their declining skillset can be a polarizing and contentious topic. But man, I don't ever want to hear you talking about jelly donuts that way again.
The fact that they’ll defend Vince and slam mick says everything about where Vince’s job security is at…..crazy
Holy shit man! I have been a fan and been listening since you won Idol here in svedala! I still remember when you blew the roof of the building with your Iron maiden cover!

This is the case when the cover is cooler than the original! Bravo Erik!
What the heck just happened here? Wow!
In my senior yearbook I listed that as my favorite song. Over the years it's collected dust, especially after hearing Vince trying to sing it. Thanks for breathing fresh life into it...just wow!
Amazing!I love it!Especially,your voice from 2:30 is so beautiful,powerful❣️Thank you,Erik.I've wanted to listen this cover for a long time!
😎🤘🏻
Mötley should have kept Mick and replaced Vince with Erik. Awesome cover! Crüehead since '83. ;)
Eric FTW.
If we can clone him,he could have been in all the 80s-90's bands. :D
This lineup have to record a full album.. they really kicks as!!!🤘🤘
Should of kept Mars and kicked out Vince...
Your voice and talent its outstanding. Really your are one of the greater singers that ever existed in this genre of music since the 80s
You are one of the greatest voices of rock right now
Hell yea!
Älskar den här låten !!
Oh yeah!!! Awesome! 😎🎸❤
Wow ! You really rocked this one ! Thanks for sharing!
Здорово 👍 рок 🎸 навсегда здорово 👍

This sounds better than the original. Amazing voice, he has perfect pitch and tone. Never seems to be at the end of his range.
Шикарноае исполнениние,лучше оригинала!🤩👍
Amazing!!! First time I could actually hear the lyrics!! I’d love to see a Crüe show with Erik singing!!
Guess you have not heard the studio album then

Great song. Well done. Great vocals, instruments were on point. You guys killed it. 🤘
Such a fun sooong 🤘🏻 my favorite swedes nailed another one, I love it!! ❤

Well boys, if that doesn´t kickstart whatever is needed, then you´re dead. Splendid cover of one of the better Mötley songs.
Thank you!
Just WOW !
Tack Erik och band. This was just what I needed right now. You are a true gem of voices, just keep on rocking my never seen friend!!
Thank you! We'll keep rocking!
