Tommy is definitely one of the greatest power musicians ever. Tommy helps us to fell, to hear, to see, to listen with our hearts . All the songs are given us from his heart and find resonance in our souls. This is Tommy’s gift, to gathered us here and give us something that we all need, every Friday. ❤️🔥🔥👏🎶Great reaction ! 100 % real! 🤘💯👏
If you didn't know, today a collaboration between Erik Grönwall ( Skid Row ) and Tommy was uploaded an hour after this. The cover is Sabaton Carolus Rex.
Thank you very much for this review! It was fun and interesting. It was nice to see Tommy in the chat, it was so nice of him. Tommy has created a masterpiece again. And it will be difficult for me to listen to the original, because now there is such a super cover. Thanks again for the review! And have a great weekend!
Another legendary cover by Tommy. Are you ready for more Tommy goodness? Head over to Erik Gronwall's Channel for Erik and Tommy doing a cover of Carolus Rex from Sabaton. Two times the Tommy is always a cause for rejoicing. Thank you for all the great reactions, OldSkuleNerd.
This is freaking fantastic! Tommy has taken a great pop song and done the seeming impossible - made it even better!! We shouldn't be surprised though, he does it all the time!❤
OSN - I admire you for having so much energy at 5 in the morning...or did you have 10 coffee before 🤣 you're so funny. I'm not a real ABBA Fan, but Tommy makes it all better 🎸🔥🤘 it's cool to see, peoples having fun. I like happy people. So that's all, what's important. 😎
What a great 50th Anniversary Hommage ❤️ And I agree with others here - you should watch Carolus Rex, this amazing Sabaton cover by Erik and Tommy. Love your reaction - as always 🎶
When you talked about Cheiron studio you forgot to talked about Max Martin and his 24!!!!!! number ONE on Billboard Hot list. The latest with Ariana Grande. Yes Sweden owns popmusic!
Fun reaction, and nice shout out to ABBA and the influence of Sweden in pop music. It's wild that after ABBA Sweden became the 3rd biggest center of pop music writing after America and Britain. One big disagreement though: You characterization of Pop music, and in particular ABBA, was nothing but the "fluff" or ordering a pie and only getting the whipped cream. I get what you were trying to say, but it also plays in to the fallacy of pop music being just "superficial fluff without depth." That was exactly what the snooty critics said at the time about ABBA, and it's just the view that has been reversed over time, as musicians, composers and the public in general came to appreciate the layers of depth, and complexity in ABBA's music, both musically and lyrically. ABBA's music has had incredibly deep effects in millions of people's lives due to this complexity and depth. So many musicians who stopped to examine ABBA, or even tried to translate or play their stuff, have concluded "wow, there's a lot going on here, this is NOT superficial fluff!"
Yep. Sweden is BIG in pop. But also in music all over. Metal is huge here. Sweden is the third biggest music export country after the U.S.A. And the UK. But we are only 10 million. So… Cherrs!
Just like UK had its [Stock Aitken Waterman] trio producing 80s and 90s pop, Sweden had its [Norell Oson Bard] trio producing a lot of Swedish pop at the same time. In the 90s, Denniz Pop and Max Martin in the legendary former Cheiron studio in Stockholm created music for the world famous pop artists OldSkuleNerd mentioned. Thanks for the pop credits, and cheers from Sweden, OldSkuleNerd! ☺
Awesome reaction! Fun as always!😃🤘 I've seen a documentary about the. Swedish pop music. Now, I'm a bit like you, Backstreet Boys and Britney Spears are not my cup of tea... I used to be more into Blink 182, Offspring and Oasis back in the day. Abba on the other hand is childhood memories to me. My parents played them all the time when I was a kid. Tommy upgraded this legendary song!🤘 Btw, check out Erik Grönwall's (Skid Row) /Tommy Johansson's cover of "Carolus Rex" by Sabaton!! It's crazy good!!
Yes, Tommy makes pop much more palatable, even enjoyable, for me with his spin on it! But I still prefer his heavier, classic, more metal music like his Gary Moore covers, (Still waiting for his remake of Golden Resurrection's "End of the World" which he did many years ago!) Btw, loved your "valley girl" imitation! 🤣❤️

Love this joyful, energetic version of Abba’s Waterloo❤ And what could go wrong when our Swedish metal treasure meets our Swedish pop wonder❣️🎼🎸🎹🎤
This song is so awesome!🤩 Now I'll have that song in my head all day... Thank you for the great reaction! 🙏🔥💯
YESSS...a great song, made even better! 😄
Thanks for your reaction!
Erik Gronwall just dropped a video with Tommy called ( Carolus ) a Sabaton song.
It was amazing.
I used to listen ABBA a lot in my youth and I'm still loving it a lot❤
Dennis Pop and Max Martin are legends!
Right behind them we have Tommy!
Had to see this again because the video makes me laugh every time. 😅
I'm assuming you'll also react to his collab, also released today, with Erik Grönwall on Erik's channel. A double dose of Swedes. It's EPIC!

Yes Sweden owns popmusic!
He said, "Look it up."

Counting down to the premiere 🎉
We have Max Martin.. Look at the songs he wrote 🇸🇪 / mostly proud of having Tommy as our national treasure tho ❤
Yep. Sweden is BIG in pop. But also in music all over. Metal is huge here.

Nice reaction💐Have you heard TIGER with ABBA? Great song. I wish Tommy would do that song his way😄🎵🎶

Btw, check out Erik Grönwall's (Skid Row) /Tommy Johansson's cover of "Carolus Rex" by Sabaton!! It's crazy good!!
Tack!
HENKE!!!!!!
I think you should listen to "Watch out" by Abba.
I heard it was the B side of the single Waterloo.
You are the King of comedy 😂❤
Max Martin. :)
england
Dennis Pop and Max Martin created the biggest pop music.
Yes, Tommy makes pop much more palatable, even enjoyable, for me with his spin on it! But I still prefer his heavier, classic, more metal music like his Gary Moore covers, (Still waiting for his remake of Golden Resurrection's "End of the World" which he did many years ago!) Btw, loved your "valley girl" imitation! 🤣❤️
The documentary I believe you are referring to is called "Flat pack pop, sweden's music miracle"
Sweden ftw =)
I'm happy that Tommy is no Günther... (Ding Dong Song), also from Sweden 🙂
Max Martin, Andreas Carlsson & Anders Bagge!
He reminds me of Meat Loaf.
react to MAY I DIE EP "anemoia" all platforms
Shit man. Just realized! You has copyed Joakims hairstyle! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
It’s was til lindman last year has grown to SALTATIO mortis if I cut it down…. But not copying Joakim
Tommy is having way too much fun with this one. As one should. Can't do Waterloo and not be over the top
