If I should stay
I would only be in your way
So I'll go, but I know
I'll think of you every step of the way
And I
Will always love you
I will always love you
You
My darling, you
Mm, mm
Bittersweet memories
That is all I'm taking with me
So goodbye, please, don't cry
We both know I'm not what you, you need
And I
Will always love you
I will always love you
You
I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you've dreamed of
And I wish to you joy and happiness
But above all this, I wish you love
And I
Will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you, I
I will always love you, you
I'll always love you

i promise you if Rock/Metal singers start singing pop the pop guys will be in trouble. These guys's vocal range and power is unmatched!! Well done man, this is AMAZING!!
I love this song and have done some attempts to cover it myself (not as good as this one obviously). But what I missed in this cover is 1. the build-up at beginning, this cover started out too big imo. 2. Those high notes in the end were too raw for me. Based on the rest of the song, Id guess that this man can hit those notes with his head voice.
@@remco416 I guess that's the difference between a pop version, country version, and rock version. In most rock songs, those dynamics are far more subtle.
Your right. Say what want about rock or glam rock. Metal those guys have some chops
I agree…Look at Dan Vasc ….metal singer… also amazing
The best !!!
Whitney Houston just gave a standing ovation.
Wow, you can speak for the dead? Impressive.
It's actually Dolly Parton's song. Whitney Houston butchered it!
I really Don’t believe Whitney butchered it . Actually she made it her song ❤️💜
Creo que las dos cantantes lo hacen impresionante, luego está la preferencia de cada uno @@missmel1498
My mans got some pipes. Whitney would be proud..
for people seeing erik for the first time, he's not just some 'young gentleman'. he won swedish idol more than a decade ago and was recently the lead singer for skid row. you have to be absolutely freakishly talented to measure up to sebastian bach, and erik does it easily. i'm not surprised he nailed this song - he is capable of any song he wants.
A CB Bailey! He’s out of this world!
Simply WOW
What a voice, what control you have. Gave me chills will have to listen to this again & again
Unbelievable. What a voice man ❤
Or my cup of song men Erik är fan guld.
Remember before his Idol times, he was a kareoke host here in Sweden. He was awesome, singing Rage against the machine with me! Such a good dude!
This guys voice is absolutely PHENOMENAL AF!!!
Listen to H.E.A.T his covered with Dan Vasc. 2 Phenomenal singers. Perfect pitch voices. And together...it's unbelievable
I just lost my 42 year old son to cancer 8 days ago. I’m broken. Thank you for singing this so beautifully.
I feel your pain. My youngest son is 42 and has multiple myeloma(bone cancer). May your son always be with you.🙏🏻
I'm so sorry 💔🙏
I’m so sorry 😢
I’m sorry for you both!! Big group hug.. ok put your arms out and we all pile in, ok come on in those in the back make sure you touch someone’s head shoulder what ever you can touch and we pray… Amen
I'm sorry for loss. Cancer to 2 of my brothers also. I know how your feeling. I will say prayers for you and may God bless and keep your son❤
This is the best Male version. This was incredible.😮
I've never heard this classic sung by a man. As I listened, I had a blanket of goosebumps cover me and tears rise up. Excellent, excellent version that I would put right up there next to Dolly's and Whitney's!! Bravo♥♥♥♥
@@angieh5629 I got the same goosebumps I got first time I heard David Draiman sing Sound of Silence, and I'm old enough to have heard Dolly and S&G when they were originally released. Outstanding talent indeed!
True! I'm with you. 100% so great male rendition.
I totally agree
Josh Weathers live at the Kessler…. Check it out and get back to us!
Didn't even think this song was possible as a male singer. Wow!! absolutely amazing performance!!! Erik's voice is unmatched.
Country star Vince Gill sings this with Dolly Parton, same tenor angel voice. ❤❤❤
Goosebumps
69 year old black man, that gave me chills ! Awesome ,thanks.
Who??!
70 year old white woman and I love it too. ♥️♥️♥️
Never heard this sung by a guy… and now I don’t want to ever hear it any other way! Absolutely stellar performance!
thank you Shaun!
You nailed it,I agree with others when I say I never heard a man sing this. It was awesome. You nailed it
@❤😢
I’ve been on this planet long enough to see Dolly and Whitney’s versions released but this will be my forever favorite.❤❤❤
I AGREE !!!
He used Whitney's arrangement of Dolly's song. He did it justice, sincere justice. His spot on note crushing voice is amazing!!!!
AGREED!!!! 💯
This sounds like Whitney Houston and somehow this new AI stuff being used and he is lip sinking like millie vanillie to me….. sounds pure fake……
Whitney & Dolly both sounded real…… Dolly wrote & sang it Whitney made this song amazing!!!!!!
This version would have to be proved to me….?????????
Very questionable 🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️
@@weepy1001 It's him, Eric Grönwall who is singing; He won Swedish Idol in 2009 and I've heard him sing many times, so no AI stuff here at all.
@@weepy1001all those veins popping! just give him his flowers , never heard of him but jeez
@@karamellogram thanks for the response…… it sure sounds like Whitney dubbed over.
He’s good enough but I’m sticking with Whitney on Dollys song!!!!!!
How ever many awards or how ever much of an upper hand he’s got due to his experience.. HE’S STILL PURE ROCK. . Pop singers would be standing in the unemployment line if rock singers decided to switch genres .
Dolly would be so proud. This is how it was meant to be preformed. Bravo! 👏🏻
Dolly Parton would be proud as the OG songwriter. ❤
Most people don’t know this!!
Right! She does not get enough credit.
Whats an og song writer please?
@@lisalewis1977 “old Guard” also currently known as “original Gangster”….. basically just means the ones who started something.
but has Dolly heard this yet?
No man has ever sung this particular song as good as this young gentleman. His future is just beginning ! Thank you for the listen !
From POP to rock/metal sound🤩
Check out Gabriel Henrique before you make such a statement
@@gungadin7369 This guy is doing rock/metal VERSIONS of pop songs. Check his channel. Gabriel is good, BUT he's doing a pop version inspired by Mariah's version/arrangement with that whistle note.
This guy from my country Sweden has been a lead singer for many many years in two different big rock bands, and now he was forced to quitting Skid Row because of his health and starts doing videos like this instead, because his health does not aloud him of touring anymore
I also lost my son at the age of 42 due to brain cancer. My world has changed since then even though it has been 6 years ago. A mother's love can penetrate other dimensions to always meet him through prayer. Wait for me there...🙏❤️
So sorry for your loss, I can't even imagine what that is like. Much love.
❤
Thank you for your attention. Love the family you have...I pray and hope you are happy and succesful. Much love from me ❤@
Just love your talent, Erik!
Unlike pop singers with auto tuners and other electronic vocal manipulations, these guys can actually sing.
And you don't think rockers use auto tone??
Exactly! Metal singers don’t need autotune! Never have and never will!
@@hum-dinger2453when?
And that's the way that song is supposed to be sung!!!! Bravo, man, bravo.
TOTALLY AGREE 🎤
Not according to the woman who wrote it, but that's okay. She (Dolly Parton) is broad-minded enough to acknowledge other possibilities.
Boom!
Best this song has Ever been sung. Gorgeous
Im 82 years and i love this song the way you sang it your very special
Wow….just wow. I am a 53 year old widow. Lost my husband of 38 years suddenly a few months ago. This just made me smile and my heart race. What talent and mastery. Thanks for sharing with us.
❤
Hello Kristy, how are you doing hope your staying safe?
Dolly Parton NEEDS to see this. She would adore it
I’m a Whitney fan and this was absolutely amazing! He mixed the power of Whitney and took Dolly’s original and made it his own!!
My sentiments exactly, felt like a mix of both!amazing
I was just thinking the same thing. Parts of it were like the Whitney Houston version, and parts are like Dolly's version. It's AWESOME! It's my favorite version.
FINALLY! A singer worthy to carry the greatness of this song. Both Dolly and Whitney very well may be extremely proud. BRAVO!
This guy is probably the best singer I've ever heard
This guy left Skid Row because he has cancer and is dealing with it with his family so I pray for him because his talent is like nothing I've ever heard before...Lizzy Hale is taking his place in Skid Row for their shows this year
Beautiful rendition of this song. Never thought a rock singer could give justice to his interpretation of this song.He nailed it!
And the saxophonist sounds exactly like the original. Just amazing!!😮
Well almost, he missed ONE tune. But great i agree.
Thank you!
You know I passed by this video several times thinking no way will this singer be able to do this song justice. I must apologize to this young man, he did an excellent job. WELL DONE!!!!
Exactly the same that went through my head!
My gf took her life in 1995 and had this song on repeat in her car. This is an outstanding version. Thanks for sharing. 💖
This is so much better than the original. The power behind his voice is off the charts. I can't love this version of that song enough. It's my favorite version by far!
One of the hardest songs EVER to cover, but you, sir, nailed it!!
This right here is exactly why power ballads were King in the 80’s and 90’s. Those powerful rock voices mixed with a ballad is just like musical umami. Outstanding.
This is probably the best way to describe this feeling of what power balladry does for the soul!!
Rock and metal singers they have a very strong vocal and very strong lungs.
His range is outstanding. His singing gave me chills. He also made the ending his very own. Simply sensational 😊😊😊😊😊
I am a 62 year old grandma who just loves to hear beautiful voices and music. So I will click on just about any video just to see. I am not into hard rock as I’m assuming this is what you did. But oh my goodness sir, you darling have the most amazing voice I have ever heard. Thank you for making a moment of joy for me.
Much Loves ….
Thank you very much for that
Totally agree 👍
My god what a performance!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
I agree 💕
I'm a 67 year old Grandma and feel the same!!!
Best male version I have ever heard. His vocal range and power is out of this world. WOW!
Hello,how are you doing,hope your staying safe?
That voice and that Saxaphone!!!!!!!!!!! Not enough !!!!!!!! Can be added!
Man! Probably the best male version of the song I’ve heard. Awesome work! Did this classic justice
Hands down best cover. That vocal range and power is otherworldly.
Whelp... I'm speechless. That was absolutely, hands down, the best version of this song I've ever heard.
Oh, ok. Lol
Bruh! Even a dead person won’t say such stupidity.
No sorry..not even close to Whitney.
@@kath3611no version is close to Whitney including Dolly’s.
I love when artists cross over into other genres of music and sing their hits. It is such a treat for us in the audience.
Rock singers don’t always get the same credit as mainstream pop singers. But Erik is absolutely insane. One of the best vocals ever. He was also awesome in H.E.A.T
If Dolly can rock metal with Rob Halford, this feller can make her epic love song into a rock ballad. Music doesnt need genre. Just emotion. ❤
Oh. My. God. So emotional, so powerful..., 🥲🥲❤️🔥❤️🔥
😂😊
Are you KIDDING me! BRAVO 👏 AMAZING the feeling and power are staggering. More than I expected.
Nobody sings it like dolly but Lord have .mercy this was magnificent!!!!
No Smoother Sax have I heard. Till now. Male Singer had Dolly Smiling just as millions of us are. Standing Ovation!!! I'm proud n honored Man.
Thanks 😊 🎷
Never heard a male rendition of this song. The range of his vocals was amazing… kinda like a mix between Whitney Houston & Steven Tyler. ❤ it!
OMG!!!!! Nothing short of angelic!!!! I want to listen to him. ALL DAY AND DEFINITELY ALL NIGHT!!! Who is this!?
God given talent. I wish I'd had this version and would've had it played at my son's celebration of life. Touches my heart more than Whitney's version or Dolly's original ever did. Greatness rarely happens in any remake of a song, but twice for this one. Phenomenal
His vocals are incredible. He did an amazing job with that song.
Never thought anyone could sing that better than Whitney Houston. But this young man nailed it. Bravo
He did an amazing job, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. Still to this day, no one has sung it better then Whitney.
@@TheRealMafoo Amen
Definitely does NOT surpass Whitney ! he has used used Whitney’s phrasing word for word with a couple of exceptions on higher notes- nice version though
Swedish
I don't agree, even though he sung it exceptionally well, he will never out do Whitney Houston!
I watched Erik Grönvall preform on Idol 2009 and was amazed by his voice singing "Run to the hills". This is another level. ❤
Ye gods!! I’m actually physically stunned.
One of the greatest singers on the planet right now. Fantastic with Skid Row, but the sky's the limit with Erik...I'm happy he's free to do everything he wants now.
Amazing cover!!!
He was amazing in New Horizon too!! I am also Swedish as Erik is. I have followed him ever since he participated in the Swedish competition "Idol", which he also won in 2009. I met him when he was on the "Idol tour" together with the guy who came second in the competition. Erik was incredibly nice then too 🤘🏻😎❤️🔥
@@peoc6491 du med .. allt han gör
Thank you very much for saying that! I appreciate ya!
@ErikGrönwall I love this version as much, if not more than Whitney's version. Several times the hair stood up on my arms & entire body goosebumps! This is truly stunning. You are my favorite singer, hands down. Brilliant! 🔥🔥👏👏❤❤
Absolutely nailed it...never heard him before but very impressed
Hard rock singers are some of the best singers in the world…and most underrated.
Dolly Parton would love what you have done with her song❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
wow what can I say....for a fella that was epic, myself being in the music indistry for manny many years, ive never ever heard any "Male" singer perform that song anywhere close to what you did, so kudos to you my friend, and as someone in here said "Whitney Huston" would of given you a standing ovation for the epic performance. Well done you.
Has Dolly Parton heard this yet? You gotta get it to her people n let her hear it!! She would totally give you her approval ❤❤ this is beautiful! Amazing
No idea but it would be an honor for me if she heard it :)
How do we get this to Dolly?
@@melaniekrassa4030 I saw an interview with her and she said the way she keeps in touch with people thru email!
Dolly would love it. She is so gracious and appreciative of a new generation loving her music.
Wow - Dolly would it 😮😮😮😮😮
People who know about music and good performances won’t be pissed off . This singer ticks all the boxes 🏆🏆🏆Amazing voice and talent 🏆Jose from Australia
Dolly Parton needs to see this. You did her proud Erik
I listen to this almost everyday. Vocals are unbelievable. Thank you
This may be the ONLY time I thank the YT algorithm…you sir, are a phenomenal singer and performer! A real powerhouse… Truly incredible!
Does anyone have doubts that wherever they are, Whitney Houston gave him a standing ovation (Proud, certainly)?
Ask Dolly Parton
Dolly one who wite song.so it Dolly give the ok
Your comment gave me chills. No doubt at all ❤
@@itsjustme7979, Thank You.
Dolly Parton might!!
Im gonna give this guy a contract right now,
WOW! I never thought anyone could top WH on this - AMAZING!!!!! wish you all the best!
Beautifully done! Great to hear a male version of this classic song! Thank you! 😎🎙🎶
Kenny Rogers.. just saying..
thank you!
yes and thank you Erik Gronwall, how I miss rock vocalist who are real singers... been a ling time
This is now my favorite version of this song. I’ve heard it sung hundreds of times but no one has come close to this. Wow!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Oh my goodness you have to be the first person that took that song to the top. I loved Whitney Houston and for someone bailing my Favorite song of all time song by someone who’s just as good as she Whitney Houston I know if she was alive she would be so proud
How am I just discovering him now?!! This version is delicate and raucous and loud and not overdone as Whitney’s. Dolly’s is pure and true. This is over the edge and hold me tight.
He did great! Dolly Parton seems to be happy if anyone takes one of her songs and does it their way. She is a very gracious lady.
Dolly is going to LOVE this. I hope she's seen it. This guy can really belt it. LOVE LOVE LOVE ❤❤❤.
This is what I LOVE about MUSIC. As a vocalist you can interpret a song in way that only you can do it. We ALL love Whitney she was Amazing and her vocal gift will last throughout time but so will many other gifted vocalists.
I absolutely love this version of the song. Wonderful, Wonderful, Wonderful ❤❤❤.
Hope Dolly Parton sees this❤❤❤Absolutely perfect. Never heard a guy sing this 😮👏 WOW BEST VERSION ❤❤❤❤😮😮😮🎉❤
I think this version is by far the best. That's just my opinion though.
I too love his version...it's my favorite of all the renditions out today!❤
Erik I've never heard any male artist do a good version of this iconic song and neither did you..... you did an amazing version that I believe no other male artist will ever match. So proud to say I heard it...wow.💥
This rendition is like nothing I've ever heard! On pitch every note. Amazing!
This is now Erik's song. He's made the definitive version. Absolutely sensational! ❤ from🇦🇺
u mean erick martin?? ruclips.net/video/Guae43miOok/видео.html
Absolutely
😂😂😂 Not a chance, Dolly wrote it and Whitney perfected it.
@@undersiege1346he blows Whitney out of the water, and doesn't even need cocaine to do it. 😅
Awesome, check
Out Josh weathers for another killer cover, him and his tele Kessler theatre
OMG this is BOMB. You sing your guts out on this track, man. Best version yet - send it to Dolly.
Goosebumps Erik!!! I'm not crying, YOU'RE crying!!! Absolute masterclass of vocal- and breath control ❤
Now THIS is how one turns a famous pop ballad into a rock ballad. Tack så mycket Erik!
Amazing job. He’s not the first metal singer I’ve heard who can do an amazing ballad. The roughness to his voice takes this to the next level.
If you want to hear another great one, Disturb's version of Sound of Silence.
@@tracyperez1755 yes, I've listened to that one many times. Great one.
Wow...just wow!! He totally knocked that one out da universe! He did Dolly Parton & Whitney Houston proud. Boy, his range is incredible. 🤌👏👏
Incredible. I hope Dolly sees this. She would appreciate it!!
Been a little bit since Swedish Idol, but glad to hear Erik crushing whatever he performs.
Dolly’s original has the most emotion of all, she really means every word she sings ❤ one of those songs that always makes me cry
Долли и Уитни пели эту песню в разное время. У Долли эмоции женщины, зависящий от мужчины, домохозяйки,, это было такое время, и ее исполнение совершенно в духе того времени. У Уитни эмоции её времени, когда женщина стала менее зависимой от мужчины, более самостоятельной, более сильной, равноправной.
If Dolly meant it then why did she cheat on her husband?
@@generalzod2479Не надо обсуждать и осуждать личную жизнь других людей. Сейчас мы говорим о песне. Наша жизнь это наш выбор. Жизнь других людей это их выбор, их приоритеты, их боли и радости, и мы им не судьи.
@@generalzod2479 She wrote it for Port Wagoner when she wanted to continue her career as a solo artist without him (they performed and recorded together a lot before that). How do you know she’s cheated on her husband?
Dolly's version and this are tied for #1 in my book!
Best rock singer of this generation. No doubts. I am just absolutely amazed.
the guy is a great singer but if you want the best rock singer of this generation> Dino Jelusick..check him out
@@borisjavor4059 Tommy Johansson and Dan Vasc are still alive
Dolly Parton is amazed and happy! ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Brilliant performance of a very challenging song to be sung well. Standing ovation from me, sir! 👏👏👏💖
One of greatest covers of any song ever. Just phenomenal
Every once in a while, not often, a chip of diamond comes out and does this, makes you believe in the power of rock music!
holy shit… that final chorus was pure power 💪🏻 awesome voice
Sveriges bästa rock röst kan sjunga allt ✅👍👍
Grandma from Finland just loved this❤
Hello,how are you doing,hope your staying safe?
Dude you have a one in a million/billion voice. I’m not a singer but instruments need constant care , your vocals are beyond precious so take care mate . Even Whitney lost her gift at the end too. All the best
My favorite song of all time & he knocked it out of 10 parks.
Whitney Houston just bowed and said, "Outstanding!!"
Dear God, I've watched it 4 times - he is so Good
Erik bringing back the *Power* *Ballad* in 2024 🎶🔥🎶❤️🔥🎶
There are currently over 800 million video's on YT. There are none better than this cover. My God Erik Whitney must be applauding from above. I would give you 10 out of 10 but this deserves much more. Truly special.
WOW not anything to say that hasn't been said, I agree with everyone else. Excellent ❤
I think if she were here, she would love what you have done. Just as she made my hair stand up you did the same. Great job Eric
Unbelievable! Whitney & Dolly would be smiling. Great job, man!
I can never get enough of him singing he is one of the best I have heard to far..
