You can say what you want about me
Want to do what you want to me
But you cannot stop me
I've been knocked down it's a crazy town
Even gotta punch in the face in l.a.
Ain't nothin' in the world that can keep me from doing what I want to do
'Cause I'm too proud, I'm too strong, live by the code that you gotta move on
Feeling sorry for yourself ain't got nobody nowhere
So I (held my head high)
Knew I (knew I'd survive)
Well I made it (I made it)
Don't hate it (don't hate it)
That's just the way it goes
Yeah
I done made it through
Stand on my own two
I paid my dues yeah
Tried to hold me down
You can't stop me now
I paid my dues
So like I told you
You cannot stop me
I paid my dues yeah
Now I'm still trusted everyday and people try to mess with Anastasia
Gotta another thing comin' 'cause I have a mind and I thought I'd better let you know
I'm no punk I can't get down, I don't give a damn about who's around
That's worked just fine 'til now
So I (held my head high)
Knew I (knew I'd survive)
Well I made it (i made it, don't hate it)
Woah
That's just the way it goes
Yeah (i done made it through)
Oh I'll stand on my own two
I paid my dues, yeah
Tried to hold me down
You can't stop me now
I paid my dues
Yeah yeah yeah
Took so long to get me here
But I won't live in fear
Are you tryin' to steal my shine?
First they want to build you up
Then they tear you down
It's a struggle, tryin' a bubble
So I (held my head high)
Knew I... (knew I'd survive)
Woah woah woah (I made it, don't hate it)
Said that's just the way.....
I said I paid my, I paid my dues
Yeah yeah yeah
But you can't stop me now
I paid my, paid my due... oh woah woah woah
Oh I paid my I paid my dues
Yeah
But you can't stop me now
I paid my dues

I have no words for how this man's voice makes me feel... I had a dream of him in church...I'd love to hear that voice in a cathedral..it is , he is.. Divinely gifted ❤❤❤❤
Love it when Tommy takes on a song like this - he unleashes the power that is in the song and makes us all hear it anew. Just wow🤩🤘
Perfectly said!👌

Tommy, every cover you do is better than the original. Love it.
Оригинал вообще гадость, удивляюсь, как Томми расслышал песню и смог сделать достойную восхищения вещь?
I found Tommy Johansson's RUclips channel during Christmas 2023 and since then have visited it almost daily, to listen to Tommy's enormously wonderful and professional covers! What an amazing musician and what an incredible voice, it's world class! In addition, this enormous presence and radiance, I / we are incredibly impressed! Reaction videos have also started to appear on RUclips from all corners of the world and EVERYONE is incredibly impressed! Thank you Tommy for sharing your knowledge and talent! Thanks from Sweden! 🇸🇪
I listen daily too! He is magical! Ty from the USA!!
Tommy !!!!! Jij bent 20 jaar te laat geboren . Het is een eer om te zien, dat een jonge kerel zoals jij zo gek is van muziek uit vervlogen tijden. 👏👏🙏
Well summarised....enchanted and thrillet 😊❤❤❤ simpel wonderful ❤️❤️❤️
Yes Tommy ( Lion From The North ) you have paid your dues. Follow your heart , dreams , & keep reaching for the stars. See you next Friday.
Sending love from North Carolina USA.
Are you sure that you are a ordinary human Tommy? 😳 I really start to wondering 🤔😅 Thank you for amazing Friday, as always 🤩💥🎸

Согласна!!!❤❤❤❤
ANASTACIA THE GREAT🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍😍😍😍
Better than the original Song ❤!!
Now that's a top show, thank you.
Why didn't I know anything about this cover until now thanks to Instagram?! You brilliantly managed to unite metal with Anastacia, the idol of my childhood and one of my biggest inspirations ❤️. I Do, Seasons Change, Boxer and Pain would sound great in a power metal version, too...well, you proved several times that anything can be "metallized" 🤘🏻
I hope Anastacia hears this 🤘
Some how I feel there is a second meaning to this song. Strong words strong meaning
Wonderful voice great music. All things to make a stand out song
Aivan hämmentävän loistavaa jälleen kerran ! Vackert! 🤘🤘🤘💥
You've done an extraordinary and splendid job with this song,beautiful as always. Looks and sounds good👌🙃👍
Den small högre än originalet 💣💥 No offense Anastacia 🥰 Tommy you made my Day 😎🤘🎸🎶
Bäst som vanligt! 🤘 Du förvandlar vilken låt som helst till en riktig superhit 💥 Tack bäste Tommy 🤘❤️
WOW that was Brilliant! This is the first song in a long time that I actually saw that you felt every word. Kudos Tommy J! ❤
Tommy, simlpy the best😍
Tommytastic.

Томми шикарен! Это просто солнце современного хэви! Томми, прекрасная композиция и исполнение!
Tommy macht Anastacias Hit noch stärker❤🥰👏😊

Jaha då hade man fel på gissningen!!!
Kul Tommy,tack för att du finns och att du kör ditt race,du har redan fått mig på mycket bra humör!!!
Mycket rogivande tankar.
Tack från mitt hjärta❤1🙏🙏💯
Som vanligt fantastiskt. Tack för att du finns ❤
Wow! It was awesome. Better than the original I must say. And the effects are fire 🔥. I really enjoyed it. Now let me watch it again and again and again! 😉
Yes!!! We all came here for this energy that Tommy gives!!!⚡⚡⚡💯💯💯🎸🎸 Tommy, you're the best!!!!!🎤🎸🌞🥰
💯💯💯💯💯🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 Yeeeeee ROCK OOOON
Tommy, I was really curious to see how you would sing this song, because I'm not a big fan of Anastacia (sorry).🤭 And I didn't know this song at all, I listened to it for the first time yesterday. But I have to say that your version of this song is much better than the original for me. ☺😘 And your new 🎸 is very very beautiful. (Charvel of course)👍😉 I'm sure you're very happy with this new guitar. 🤩 Thank you and glorious weekend! 🙏☺
Terrific Tommy !! You’re the bomb!You never disappoint your fans ..
Thank you for sharing your AWESOME talents with the world♥️
o m f g i loved this song in my childhood and hearing it like this, and with your voice, it's more than perfect. i will listen to it non stop, i have to much memories connected to this song
New subscriber from South Texas. Buddy, you could sing the phone book and make it right as rain. What a talent.
Don't know if anyone has already mentioned this but another cover for this song was performed by Jaded Heart, a rock\metal band that performed really well with this song. I haven't heard the original by Anastacia(if that is the original) but the Jaded Hearts version was the first version I heard which was suggested to me from Spotify after one of my playlists ended. Both Tommy's and Jaded Hearts versions are awesome.
Well if you haven''t heard about her, i don't blame you. Anastacia is not that popular in the US. Most of her success is in Europe
Talent and beautiful voice. without drugs and you will be recognized as one of the greats of rock
💪🔥❤️❤️❤️
Wow så jävla bra 👍👍Äntligen ❤❤❤❤
Perfect match. You make the version in my head of those riffy pop songs reality. A fan since swedish hitz, it's a pleasure to get fresh metalized pop hitz.
Holy lord 💪🏻🎸 Absolutely incredible Tommy 🙏🏻👍🏻
Asså... vaffö finns det inte en knapp för 1000 likes!!! ❤ Tack, awesome cover.
Bravo!!! This feels like your declaration!!! I am very excited to be along this journey of yours and thank you for placing a smile on my face each week 😊
Круто, Томми, реально круто! Вокал и соло гитары великолепны! И ваша улыбка!
Какой же он умничка! Огромный потенциал! Слушаешь,и хочется слушать!
Талант не отнимешь! Он или есть, или его совсем нет!
Да, Томми крутой чувак!
Another great cover. This one is as good as other songs you've done. Keep up the good work Tommy 🤘🤘🎸🎸
Goosebumps all the way🎸 Thanks Tommy🤘
Strong message and a great powerful cover 💪👏 Fantastic job 🔥🤘 lots better than the original 😎👍
Great, epic, love it! You are genious. I love the song, your video, the new guitar. Tommy Friday is the best day of the week! Rock on! 🤘🤘🤘♥🎸🎵🎶
Thank you Tommy, this is exactly what I need in my life. Beeing able in 2024 to listen to "new" metal music in sound of the 80s. :)
This year. Something with Floor?
As usual Tommy keeps surpassing my expectations .. chunky chugs.. buttery riffs..rocking vocals.. and a new sweet cherry guitar to dazzle us with.. ya gotta love Tommy Time fridays 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Super! Tommy, you gave this song a second life!! 🖤🤘🏽
Yes, you've paid your dues, no question about that! But I will always love Sabaton!, that will never change!! That said, I can't wait to see what comes next!! You have a talent that the world needs to see and hear, now more than ever. Keep rocking Tommy, and good luck!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! 🤘😁🤘
Already a very catchy song became even better when you mixed metal spice in it! 🤩 Rocking friday here we come! 🔥🎸🎶💥
Hi Mr. Tommy Johansson🖐🎧🎤🎸
Tommy you are the wizard of covers... a true magician... a star... no matter what type of song or genre... you shine! 🤘😎🤘 Your guitarplay and voice is top notch!
Du är G R Y M! 💪🇸🇪
Tommy, you knocked it out of the park yet again. Great cover!
Awesome ❤ another masterpiece. Thanks Tommy 💝
I remember this song back when it was released and Tommy just turned it all the way up to the stratosphere. What a kickass cover. Well done Tommy. ❤
Wow!!!! Another epic cover from you Tommy! Trust me, when you decide to make more Albums with Majestica, or decide to do a solo album, make no mistake! I WILL DEFINITELY buy it! This song made my day!
It definitely looks like you're enjoying singing this one - probably felt good for you to sing those lyrics!! 💪
And what you did with the arrangement here is so spot on!! Adding the more orchestral sound to the introduction, leading into such strong guitars, and then maintaining that strength and energy throughout the rest - definitely takes the attitude of this song and puts a metal spin on it in exactly the right way!!
And the visual effects are also perfect, amplifying that unbreakable, invincible attitude even further!
This is absolutely the kind of inspiring cover you'd want to start every day with - epic, powerful and awesome!! 🔥
King Tommy 🖤💜☠️
Fasen va bra😊👍👍👍
Another banger! Tommy rocks! 🤘🤘🤘Heard this song at the first time in cover by Jaded Heart. Now even don't know which one is my favorite))
Tommy, I really like what you're doing. A true rocker, a true Metal boy. 🤘🤘 Well done, I'm happy for you, the feeling, the power of the voice, everything is just OK.
Tommy, you look prettier😊😊😊! It looks like a snowdrop that is about to bloom! I do not know when snowdrops will bloom in Sweden, in Russia they have already appeared in Kaliningrad :))). In Sweden, the Tommy flower still fascinates with its beauty! The one and only! I liked this rebellious song! It reflects your character, your male indomitable strength and bright energy. Your powerful vocals have opened up from all sides. A delight to my ears. It seems to me that you are not very angry yet, there may be more fire in you! You're holding back a little bit. Let your emotions spill out naturally, don't hold back. This will have a beneficial effect on your psyche and creativity. It's wonderful that you're in such a mood. Only you know what suits you. Discover your talent, go your own way, I wish you God and love to guide you! May your road be full of love, light, fire and power💖🔥💖🔥! So that any difficulties can be overcome! You're already strong enough for this! I believe in you. Thanks for the powerful song🌞🌟🥰❤️👏👏👏🎸😍🤗!!!! You're beautiful in it.😜😜😜
Anyone who is not mediocre or conforms to the current "norm" will probably find themselves in these lyrics. The song was already incredible when Anastacia sang it - this one has even more "punch". Congrats 🎶
Thank you Tommy J made Anastacia song brand new version ❤🤝 😊🤘
Love this!🤘💪💥 and all the content flowing from your channel! Here’s to 1M subs
So nice, I hope you will do an album with your own songs in exactly this direction. - Hard Rock in the 80's style!!
Tommy is unstoppable, King of rock n roll 👑
This is ONE of many gifts this man holds. Truley amazing 🤘 keep em rolling Tommy
I love Anastasia, so happy Tommy does too♥️ This is so Awesome from Tommy, Pure Gold, love the guitar work too🎸 thanks Tommy🙏 your a Legend⚜️💙⚜️🤘
Fire!!!
BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL! 👄
Outstanding, Tommy ❤
I can't imagine even one day without your music and such beautiful voice .
I'm so glad you decided to go your own way - we are with you ❤
I´ve always (secretly) liked this song. Not surprisingly, now I like it even more. This was on point, really. Wonderful stuff !
OMG!!! I love it!! ❤❤ what a COVER!!! Better than the original!! 🤩✨✨
That was SO GOOD Tommy! I loved the arrangement and your vocal just hit it out of the park!
He has such a powerful voice and his whole portfolio is amazing…..it’s great hearing him sing…..it would be nice if a label picked him up and he could have original music though…..maybe he doesn’t want to go that route though…..whatever……
love his voice no matter what song he chooses to sing……😊😊😊
You mean like nuclear blast records where his band majestica is signed to?
His band Majestica used to be called ReinXeed before, Tommy is singer and songwiter. They released 6 albums as ReinXeed and 2 as Majestica 😃 Also, song The Light on this channel is a re-recorded version of his first ReinXeed single
Tommy, thank you very much for reminding me of this song! Anastacia once created a miracle by writing this song. Twenty years ago, she helped me get ahead! Then, I somehow forgot everything, and even now I didn’t remember that I didn’t owe anyone anything!
Yes! I paid all my dues!
Thanks Tommy! You woke me up!
Well, of course, I didn’t expect you to perform Anastacia, and you did it, as always, brilliantly!
You make me a proud Swede!
Yes! A metal cover an already A$$ kicking song, great! Nu kör vi!
Wow amazing! You really can take any song and turn it into amazing epic metal...both instrumentally and vocally.
If only I could listen to this on Spotify. It's such a banger! You've gone and smashed it again, Tommy! Well done!
Вот и пришла пятница!
И Томми сделал мой день!
Восхитительно и одно удовольствие!
Кайф, драйв,отличная работа!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🤟
Салам брат. Обожаю Томми. Настоящая Музыка существует и это круто!
