I've only listened to 3 so far, but as far as they are concerned, I agree with Mike. While he's no Steve Perry, he still did a pretty darn good job on "Faithfully." On "Always", he totally nailed it and even sounded just like Jon on most of it, but there were spots where I could tell the difference. Lastly, even thought "Alone" by Heart has two female voices on it, Erik and Chez Kane were awesome! If "Always" is any indication, Erik could probably take Jon's place, but then it wouldn't be Bon Jovi anymore. I'd settle for Erik joining a Bon Jovi tribute band.
Wish rock could resurge again, the 80s and 90s were great eras, with amazing music, but streaming declined sales. Now artists need to tour to make money. This bring a lot of great memories. Erik is pure gold. One of the best singers of this era.
Your comment is the best assessment of the music industry. Your Taylor Swift or nothing nowadays. They're single artists now. They don't make albums anymore
What How Where have I been not to hear this guy???? I am in awe of this voice.....he can sing anything, and I love how he honors the songs he sings of others...he doesn't try to be cheesy or them he just flat out makes it his own and OWNS IT LIKE IT WAS HIS!!!! Dang Gina!!
Agree. I’m 75 and never heard of this guy till today! He sings all my favourite numbers! What a f*kking awesome voice! He sings them all the way they’re supposed to be sung, so much power and feeling. ❤
I’ve always thought to try and cover a song sung by the legendary Jon Bon Jovi was nearly impossible with his unique voice and range. Young sir, you just blew me away. You have a new fan. Love from Canada!!!🇨🇦
Every cover, gives me chills. I replay over and over to make sure Im hearing what I am hearing. God bless you with an amazing voice. I'm so grateful I stumble across you❤
Is this 64 yr old woman still allowed to love Bob Jovi music like I do . My kids and grandchildren think I lost my mind recently when they discovered I listen to this
I am 64 too, Its nice to watch/listening to talents like this ( Erik ), grow up with rock and roll ( Led Zeppelin/Deep Purple etc....beginning of the 70s and punk in the late 70s :)
You are not alone. This 71 yo loves everything about symphonic metal. Especially if they redo songs of the 80's and 90's when they knew how to do music. I'm so glad that there are a few bright spots in this day and age. Our kids don't know what they're missing.
Well once again, another song I haven't heard you sing yet. JEEEZUZ Your voice has this range that's unbelievable ❤ I'm always amazed 😘 Thank you for who you are and your beautiful voice that reaches right down to my soul. XOXOXO Keep smiling 😉
It’s been a very long time since I’ve had chills from hearing that song. Brilliant! I wish Marli (RIP) could have heard you sing her favorite Bon Jovi song. ❤
Год назад+57
I'm so sorry for your loss Ashlyn. Sending you all the strength I have!
Whoa, Erik is an amazing vocalist for sure and I was with ya until the words "better than." For me he's quite talented but better than Jon Bon Jovi, Steve Perry ect. no!
Jesus Christ!! I have been a Bon Jovi fan since 1987 (yeah I'm freakin old) but Erik I'm going out on a limb here and say you fuckin nailed it better than the man himself!! He would be proud!!!❤
Eric, I really hope you read all these comments. You are literally turning into a modern day rock God. To perform these covers at this level and to receive this number of huge compliments is testament to your ability. I look forward to watching your career explode, just like the greats before you. Keep up this spectacular work and thank you for entertaining us. It's about time we had a modern day rock God on the scene.... 👏👏
Erik is so amazing, but please check out his fellow country man Tommy :) . We have some talented musician and singers in Sweden :) www.youtube.com/@ReinXeed
I saw him with Skid Row a couple of summers ago. I wasn’t a huge fan of Skid Row and thought the show wouldn’t be that great without Sebastian Bach. I was blown away by Eric. He has one of the best voices in the world today.
......well, I've just found this guy and he is just incredible isn't he. I mean the scale of his voice has knocked a hole clear through my brain. I'm a Gillan and Dickinson chap myself and clearly he will now sit comfortably along side them, in my humble opinion.
Here January 7, 2025!! Since finding Erik’s Oh Holy Night, I have been blown away with every song sung. I might of or maybe not😉, listened on repeat over and over all day, every day to every song🤭😉 I’d absolutely love to hear a cover of Bad Medicine please🙏🥰or Bryan Adams Everything I Do I Do It For You. Fan forever from Canada 🇨🇦
Oh wow. I’m almost speechless. This has been my favourite song of all time, since I first heard it in 1994. I never thought anything could beat it. But this version is INCREDIBLE!! I’m totally blown away by it. Tack så mycket, du är bäst! 💜💜
This cover is simply beautiful - for real! So great to see you and Jona collaborating, and I am thinking that Jake did the camerawork. You Swedes rock. Thank you!
Год назад+19
Thank you Lisa. Jake did indeed do the camerawork. Working with Jona is a privilege for me. He hears everything, he knows when I'm doing my best and when I'm just being lazy... he keeps me on my toes.
Will be a dream happening in front of me....H.E.A.T and Skid Row in the same festival....amazing.....could Erik sing on both moments? Let's see....fingers crossed....🤟🤟🤟
Wow… I hope you realize that you are getting a massive fan club from grandmas like me in their mid 50 and 60 that had our youth listening and living such rock-love songs; and boy, wow, you deliver every single one of them. Amazing voice performance… prayers for your health, and thank you for touching our hearts again… had been a long time since a singer could do so… (not even my wildest dreams I thought I would be fan of an younger rock artist and amazing singer! 😬😂❤) Btw, your cover on the iconic Witney Huston “I will always love you” is beyond words… you did it!!! What a lot of people tried for all these years without any little hint of success; but you did the song justice! Beautiful is an understatement.
Ohh emm gee EG - I had to pull my car over this morning to give this first watch my undivided attention - got no words to describe how amazing this is - except I freakin LOVE it !!!!! Wow
Год назад
I'm glad you didn't watch this while driving ;) Thank you Sherri!
Sorry new to Erik! But my god! How can you be a chameleon but have unique talent and sound so original simultaneously?! Hats off to you sir. Goosebumps and now lost for words
AAARRRRGGGHHHH!!! Erik!! Stop it! I’ve said it before and again, you’ve killed, crushed every single time but this…I have no words. I have chills. Bon Jovi was my band back in the day, all mine, no one else’s . This is the best I’ve heard anyone do this song. I can’t, I just can’t. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥.
Erik !!!! Watching this just made me cry ❤❤ you put so much emotion into your vocals.. it just blew me away. Your super talented and inspiring. Please keep the covers coming ! And good luck with you upcoming skid row tour. And please come back to England soon 😅 xxx
Such talent. Such passion. Such a powerful voice. Erik Grönwall, I'll love your music till the stars don't shine, till the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme - always. ❤
Jesus Christ this guy has to be one of the best vocalists out there right now. He absolutely slays every cover he does.
You are way too kind! Thank you.
Bro you are unbelievable! Love you covers you slay them all

De and Dan Vasc. They did one together. Check him out. ❣️🎤
He's also incredible live. I went to a Skid Row show in April. They blew the roof off the place. At the end, I was asking, "Sebastien who"?

You should hear him live with Skid Row...I saw them with Scorpions in Vegas Last year...He sounded better than Sebastian did 30 years ago

Yes true ❤

You are amazing. Unbelievable. Sensational.
💯👏👍🙋♀️
This man can sing anything: melodi, rock, slow, fast, heavy metal, musicals...
Just AMAZING!!!
Podobnie jak Sebastian Krenz z The voice of Germany,on też wszystko zaśpiewał a jego wykonanie Skorpiona genialne
Every cover, gives me chills. I replay over and over to make sure Im hearing what I am hearing. God bless you with an amazing voice. I'm so grateful I stumble across you❤
He is the best he could sing any song and it sounds like the original
Is this 64 yr old woman still allowed to love Bob Jovi music like I do . My kids and grandchildren think I lost my mind recently when they discovered I listen to this
Haha, I get that! 67 here but 21 in my mind ❤ they should see me dance!
Age is just a number 😊
I'm 65 and enjoying this guy.

Marli will feel it up over the rainbow
Amazing 😢
Looooove this!!!!
95% like original , this guy has to be one of the best vocalists out there right now. He absolutely slays every cover he does.
Eric sings ALWAYS. I was moved and cried. I listen to it repeatedly on sad nights. ☆🌙
He just made Bon Jovi say wow!
I've never heard a singer sing so many covers that sound better then the original. Just a freak Erik Grönwall
Whoa, Erik is an amazing vocalist for sure and I was with ya until the words "better than." For me he's quite talented but better than Jon Bon Jovi, Steve Perry ect. no!
@dimas Senopati
Jesus Christ!! I have been a Bon Jovi fan since 1987 (yeah I'm freakin old) but Erik I'm going out on a limb here and say you fuckin nailed it better than the man himself!! He would be proud!!!❤
There’s a great chance you might get a call from Bon Jovi management after this! Nailed it.
Ha ha thanks!
@ Jon should switch to just guitar and try a new singer, lots of bands have. He could keep the cash cow going longer. But he won't.
or a supergroup with Ritchie Sambora

당신은 최고입니다
Awesome job Erik..god bless you always❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
absolutely breath taking..........
Not sure who this chap is but well done you tube algorithm I'm quite taken with his voice.
If he had a solo career he'd have the world by a string. His voice blows me away.
He is the best. Power, emotion, approaching, delivering, range..!
He sounds like John when he was young!great job. I haven't heard better!
Nailed it! Best cover I've ever heard of this song
When I listen to this guy I begin to wonder what it would feel like to be able to just belt out a song like he does. It must be an amazing feeling.
Din röst finns för mänskligheten ❤️🌞
There’s nothing this dude cannot sing! You are an AMAZING singer!!
ridiculously good. doesn't even sound like a cover. sounds like Jon's vocals.
Thank you!!
I hope you feel better now...the world can't lose you and your talent.
