    Mikael from Sweden here:
    "Nu grönskar det" means "Now it's green" or "Now it's getting green". The melody is originally written by Johan Sebastian Bach and the lyric for the Swedish part is written by Evelyn Lindström. The middle musical part is from a song called ”IDAS SOMMARVISA” written by the Swedish composer Georg Riedel and lyrics by the Swedish author Astrid Lindgren for the children's book and move "Emil of Lönneberga" (from Swedish: Emil i Lönneberga). Astrid Lindgren wrote many world-famous children's books like Pippi Longstocking and Emil of Lonneberga.

    Hej där, it means Hi there in swedish. The song is about celebrating the summer and its a Bach song with a little bit of a childs song during his guitarsolo.

    Nu Grönskar Det are a swedish hymn to the spring, sun and summer.
    The winters here are long, dark and harsh so the summer are important to us.
    Nu grönskar det can be translated to Now it greens, I think 🤔

    This is a great song and a great display of Tommy's versatility, also really fun. When it comes to Tommy's covers I recommend his recent cover of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen and Murder In The Sky by Gary Moore . That cover is special because it was recorded using a guitar that used to belong Gary Moore and Gary is Tommy's greatest musical idol and the reason he started playing guitar. I'd also like to recommend new artist, fantastic rock/metal singer called Dino Jelusick. You can start with his cover Stormbringer (all star jam). Greetings from Croatia

      Thank you for watching and keeping in touch. I have marked the 1st in that trilogy to do soon, but there are quite a few ahead of it, and it will depend on the copyright restrictions to determine how quickly we can release it on our channel, but we will do the best we can. Thank you again for the suggestion.

    Lyrics in English
    Now the valley embraces us with greenery
    With scented meadows and mountainsides
    Come, come with us on a hiking trip
    In the happy time of spring
    Each day is like a golden bowl
    Filled to the brim with wine
    So drink my friend, drink sunshine and fragrance
    Since the day is yours

    Far away from the grey city houses
    We happily go our way
    And follow the path's white ribbon
    into a shining adventure
    With eyes wide open let us behold
    the richness of life
    As everything sprouts and blossoms
    When spring is in bloom

    (repeat Verse 1)

    Well, I beat my 4th favorite Swede, Kent to the comments! This is what Tommy left us with b4 he took a much-deserved vacation! His return graced us w Bohemian Rapsody! But he really knocked it outta the park last Friday with a cover of Gary Moore's Murder in the Sky...which he performed as an amazing duet w Majestica bassist, Chris David (who also fronts WizDoom...and I can't remember if I've suggested his song, The Way Of The Lost... its not power metal, but I think you'll like the mood of it!) Ueah, all of those songs are a good listen!

    Another fun song by Tommy is one of his latest, The Moustache Song
    Now the nature turns green
    in vale, hills and pasture. Enjoy it.
    Every day is like a cup, filled to the brim with wine. Drink sunshine, inhale the scents from the surroundings...

    I think you hit the nail on the spot with calling Tommy "a COOL Weird Al"!
    I think that's how a lot of us percives him - we just didn't have the right word for it! 😄
    The song in question is a mash up between a piece from Bach and a popular childrens song.
    Both are sung every year, in Swedish church concerts, when the schools takes a summer break. 💐
