This Swedish version is absolutely fantastic!
As everyone said, this is one song that is actually easy to do a word for words translation. Loved your reaction. Hugs from Sweden.
First time I heard Swedish version was the one sung by the great Jussi Björling, the greatest opera singer ever and Tommy did it justice big time! Amazing vocals and so heartfelt. Yesterday he released the English version of this song and it's in another key, so it sounds a bit different, but just as beautiful. Also, his cover of Fairytale of New York with Kirstin Starkey is imo the best cover of that song I have heard
You are not the first to mention that cover… may need to check that out ;)
Tommy Körberg's version of O helga natt is also really good.
Jussi Björling and Tommy Körberg versions 👌
@@VikingReacts You really should! The recording is old but Jussi was amazing! Goosebumps!
@@peppermintcrush5794 *Jussi Björling!!!* Wow! *_That voice of him is a blessing, from our Lord in the Heavens!_*
I can’t get over the language, it’s such a beautiful language.
Tommy is a one man band-literally. He can sing, play keyboards, guitars and I believe even drums. And he writes and produces, too. I would love to hear Tommy and Floor duet on this. They both sing it solo. Imagine if they came together on this!
#tommyandfloor I am all for it!
@@VikingReacts If you arent "for it" you need a doctor
Tommy is fabolous, and he's a real wonder Swede 🇸🇪
Hi, as a Swede I promise the song is the same version as Jussi Bjorling, the greatest tenor ,
But with a metal back.
Great
You should react to Jussi Björling The greatest operasinger all time, and his version of Oh helga natt
GOSEBUMPS
I'm so impressed by this man. Again, that was glorious! Thank you for supplying the translation. I loved it!
Love this song, gives me goosebumps like a cactus 🌵🌵🌵
You must be talking about them _horsebumps,_ right! 😉🤗
What that song is for you, Gläns över sjö och strand is for me , and I'm so glad he did that one as well. That's an old traditional Swedish Christmas Carol and he does it very well.
Merry Christmas from Sweden.
He did? HÄRLIGT! I have to see it immediately! (It's my song too.) 🤗
Yeah, he makes this lovely song great.....and the end is pure magic!! 😍
As you know, Tommy Johansson is a REAL viking :)
Well half viking? Hehe the real Vikings comes from Norway. 🤪😉🇳🇴🇳🇴
He is killing it. Best ever
I need to hear that again… well its usually what happens when i listen to Tommys covers. The little touches that he adds to this song makes it so beautiful. He’s also quite skilled doing art. In Majestica’s Glory of Christmas video all the art drawings are done by Tommy himself. 😀
Oh Holy night was also my favourite Christmas song....until Tommy wrote the joy of christmas 😊.
Seriously, this was my very introduction into the world of Tommy Johansson last year for christmas and I never left it. Tommy's voice and his ability to transport emotions specially in his native language is just nothing I have ever experienced before.
I am so glad you are back to react to songs. You have a very good ear and hear things that escaped me before. Please keep it up.
Have a great year 2023😀
Great reaction! This song is gorgeous. You NEED to hear his version of this song in English.
No I’ve listened to this song by him in English and it doesn’t even compare to the version in Swedish, the language definitely adds something to the song. He was built to sing in Swedish, not English.
Thank you! I am Swedish but had no idea about this Tommy. Strange. Strange indeed.
Thank you! Tommy is amazing ❤❤❤❤❤
Love your reaction =0) I soo like that you are you....and not try to be somebody else. Too many that react here on TH-cam can`t be them self and tries to make some silly show.
Oh, I so hate those reactions. Also… most of what I do can’t be monetized as I think the message is more important than the potential ad revenue. Music is something that can touch me deeply and trigger all emotions. To share this with you is my privilege. Thank you for noticing this!
and tommy is a member of a group from Sweden. and the group name is sabaton
Best rendition of this song to date. Never have I ever heard a voice like his. He is perfection personified, beauty at its best.😊
one of Swedens national treasures!
This one is amazing. But you also need to listen to Tommys "Fairytale of New York" where he is doing a duet together with Kristin Starkey. I am only saying: Goosebumps. 🥰
I’m curious to hear his phantom of the opera as that is one of my favorite songs ever! But rest assured… Tommy will get attention on this channel ;)
@@VikingReacts Yes, that one is fantastic too. And "Una canzone d'amore" especially at 2:38. And ... and... and ... I can list a lot of them. 🙂
I totally love your rection videos hahaha :D Big hugs from a swedish beardo ^^
You are one of my best reacting TH-camrs. Love your pure joy and happiness in it. Cheers!
What can I say… I just love music fully and in every fiber :). I’m happy to see you like the results of that!
I have seen this reaction so many times, but I still want to come back and see it again and again. Especially love the comment at 11:04..... 😝
You have a wonderful laugh. It's contagious lol.
I don't think I've ever had that compliment... Thank you :)
@@VikingReacts I have to agree with @Ellen S.
I thought about your laughing when you [beautifully] reacted. I also loved it too!
Merry Summer days 😉
Floors version is Epic too, In Finnish....Mery Christmas
If I’d have been back sooner… I could react to that as well and have it make sense :p
Yes I did...was so waiting to see you reaction to it. 😁
He is incredible and it is surely MY favourite rendition of the song.
Lovely reaction.
Love your reaction brother 😊
I'm happy you liked it :)
Yes this is definitely a Special
Christmas Song🎶 This is also Tommy's favorite Christmas carol.
The drums 🥁
you heard may be Hannes van Sabaton Floor's husband, but I'm not sure...🥰
Wanted to join the chat but I didn't have a bar to write something...sorry!
As always a clear response, and also nice that you add text great 🔝🙇🏼♀️
Happy Holidays with lovely people around you
🎅🏻🌠✨
No, Hannes did not play drums. Tommy plays all instruments on his you tube videos. I think he uses Brighton Drums by Fredman Digital (VST software).
He did a English version he released yesterday
Had I known that… this would have been a double reaction ;). Merry Christmas to you too!
That was absolutely masterful. I loff him so much. And yes, this song is at its best in Swedish...
The swedish lyrics are very similar
to the english lyrics in this song.
Please do Tommy's cover of She's Gone originally by Steelheart
Tommy is unbelievable vocalist and his voice is just crazy good. You love this song, (so do i), so you MUST listen to this rendition too. th-cam.com/video/hABOAM3zsjY/w-d-xo.html
I don't know if you already know it, but it doesn't matter. Vocals here is just insane...And the arrangement is gorgeous.
beautiful. my favorite Christmas song too
That was so cool🤩🤩 Loved it🎸 You also a Merry Christmas 🎄
Kanon👍👍🌸
May i also suggest Sabaton - Christmas Truce so you can have 2 favorite Christmas songs on the playlist for next year :)
Way ahead of you ;). th-cam.com/video/W_LWP44sneo/w-d-xo.html
🎸👏👏👏🙏❤
Christmas
Check out Valhalla Calling Duet by Miracle of Sound ft. Peyton Parrish!!! It's f***ing great!
After this you cant go back
Mariah who? Listen to Tommy's version of All I want for Christmas is you
its translated under
I know… I’ve added that translation :p
@@VikingReacts Aha 👍😂
So...yeah...the words are slightly different than the usual English, but...they're BETTER! WAY BETTER! In the English version, the song is definitely tuned to the baby Jesus being born, and leaving it there, though invoking worship, yet focusing on the NIGHT being holy.
With this one, I would say it would normally be sung for Easter, as it's focused on the adult Jesus being killed on the cross, then buried--only to go and grab the keys of death and hell, then resurrect Himself back at the grave, then fold his own grave clothes and walk out with angels by His side.
This is a "KINGDOM" song (the Kingdom of God)...spoken the way it SHOULD be. This is a WAR song, and it's RIGHT! Plus, it's honoring HOLY GOD...not the the night, which cannot actually become holy. Also, Tommy sang it AS a VICTORY OF WAR song, as was clearly correct, given those lyrics! WOW!!!
I just went to look up the original Swedish lyrics to see if they matched what he was SINGING, and they do (which I'm sure you already knew, back in December). So...yes...different, but SO MUCH BETTER, than our English, Christmas version.
Don't worry, I'm not going to stop singing the English (weaker) version. It's one of my very favorite songs to sing, and now that my voice is almost all the way back, I DO plan to sing it for Christmas.
On the other hand, I'm also now going to learn the (English) words completely, for Resurrection Day use!

OK...all of the above was written before I am hearing the part AFTER Tommy is through singing...
...and now you've finished, and I'm REALLY excited to send you a copy of this comment, on Patreon. Thank you very much, Carlos! 😀
Det var väldigt bra sjunget . En av det bättre från en manlig sångare
ts a bit different
Something must be wrong with me, but I don’t enjoy Tommy. Yea he has a great voice - Well to me ok voice. Can someone tell me What’s wrong with me? But I just love Dan Vasc. For me he’s soooo mutch better.
I think you just answered your own question...
