Translation City of Light My journey was towards the sun, far beyond all closed rooms, Where everything is infinite, and all borders have forever been erased. I wanted to see the miracle and hear the words that give life, To be carried by a strength that only grows when I’ve sensed my purpose. City of light, in a land without a name, Give me life, where everything is born anew. And so, when everything has changed, when time no longer exists, I see us together, and then the journey is complete, The only thing we remember. City of light, in a land without a name, Give me life, where everything is born anew. City of light, in a land without a name, Give, give me life, where everything is born anew.
Stad I Ljus - Ciry In Lights. This was Sweden's entry in Eurovision in 1988, . It's the song that is played when the bar/pub closes, especially University bars. Often the patrons do a drunken sing-a-long to end the evening. If you have a private party, you can also play this song to tell people that the party is over and it's time to go home. It's also become an official hymn (no 830) and is often played at funerals.
Hi Lee Jay and Stan! I'm with you guys, I can't understand what the lyrics are but, I have been amazed how that does matter when listening to Tommy! He projects so much feeling in his songs you feel it anyway...if that makes any sense. Great reaction again guys! #tommyjohanssan
Tommy Körberg and Celine Dion did a live performance together. TommyK had a soared throat, so he didn't really want to practice the day before. He didn't sound good, and he left early. Celine was not happy she was afraid it would be embarrassing for her. This is a video of what happend live!😂 ruclips.net/video/IVdOQYY-aP8/видео.htmlsi=bziub6veRSCuLnID #tommyjohansson
This song has made it into the Hymnal book of the Swedish Church as well. It's a big ferry terminal nearby, but I think he wanted to illustrate a city, Stockholm in this case, in the lights. Körberg is said like Church without the end so just say Chur(ch)berg
There is a version with english lyrics, Unchained light, but it´s so much better in swedish. It´s also used a lot a bar/clubs at closing time when they light up the lights and everyone has to leave.
Check out Tommy Körberg’s ”Anthem”. It’s from the Musical Chess! It’s epic, Tommy J has covered that as well, so a little ”Battle” might be a good idea?
Love your reactions! If you want to check out Tommy Körberg I recommend Anthem from the musical (Chess). Björn and Benny from Abba had his voice in mind when creating that musical
If you want to check out Tommy Körberg he did a really cool collaboration with Dead by April (For Every Step). Check it out, you will not get disapointed. Tommy K have had a looong career. It is a funny clip where he pranks Celene Dion during the performance going off the script. He has also been part of Björn and Benny (from ABBA) and their musicals... and much more. He is VERY famous in Sweden.
You should take a look at Majesticas latest single ( released yesterday ) ” a story in the night ” .. 🎉 ruclips.net/video/dP08ex8nbKE/видео.htmlsi=KGjrmjid7MEI-12T

City of Light
My journey was towards the sun, far beyond all closed rooms,
Where everything is infinite, and all borders have forever been erased.
I wanted to see the miracle and hear the words that give life,
To be carried by a strength that only grows when I’ve sensed my purpose.
City of light, in a land without a name,
Give me life, where everything is born anew.
And so, when everything has changed, when time no longer exists,
I see us together, and then the journey is complete,
The only thing we remember.
City of light, in a land without a name,
Give me life, where everything is born anew.
City of light, in a land without a name,
Give, give me life, where everything is born anew.
Fantastic cover by Tommy J as always. He is awesome!! 😍🤩🎸
Stad i ljus - City of lights. In a land with no name. Give me life. Where all is reborn

Really? I've never heard that, and I used to with bars when I still lived in Sweden. Where in Sweden are you?

Tommy Körberg sang this song for Sweden in Eurovision 1988.
💚✌
Tommy has covered some songs in Italian and also in Latin (Ave Maria)
This song has made it into the Hymnal book of the Swedish Church as well.
It's a big ferry terminal nearby, but I think he wanted to illustrate a city, Stockholm in this case, in the lights.
Körberg is said like Church without the end so just say Chur(ch)berg
It's not quite the same ch- sound as in church since ch in church has slight t sound first before the Swedish ch.
There is a version with english lyrics, Unchained light, but it´s so much better in swedish.
It´s also used a lot a bar/clubs at closing time when they light up the lights and everyone has to leave.
