Tommy is the whole package, he is the Master Class of talent! He does ALL of it himself. You need to dive into the rabbit hole. I subbed for Tommy! Team Tommy #tommyjohansson
Congratulations! You have found the best of the best here in Tommy! We are always happy to see new people discover him! Keep going, every song he does is an upgrade from the original (imho)! Also, everything you hear and see is Tommy's doing, all instruments, vocals and video production. Just an amazing talent and a great personality as you'll see in future videos! You were asking for less hard rock songs...try out "Ave Maria", "Who Wants to Live Forever", Phantom of the Opera", "Euphoria", or "Cotton Eye Joe" (one of his more comedic ones). ❤
Yes to all of this. All those suggestions are spot on. For some reason I particularly love Euphoria. I'd never heard it before, and now it's a favorite.
Glad you enjoyed it. Welcome to Tommy J. You may (or may not) have noticed that he is the former guitarist for Sabaton - who I think you've reacted to. He is also the lead singer/guitarist for Majesta, a power metal band also from Sweden. He does all the instrumentation on the videos himself. I'm not a huge Toto fan, so this isn't one of my favourites. I'd recommend you check She's Gone (prob still his most popular), Alone, Circle of Life, and, off-season, but his O Helga Natt is amazing. You Raise Me Up, shows his upper range. He uses a fair bit of humour in most of his videos and often a nod to the viewer in the last few seconds. In any case, you have a large library of videos to choose from his channel. Cheers!
Welcome to Tommy's world! What makes him the best (in my opinion anyway) is that he does everything! All instruments, background voices, etc. I recommend Sound of silence for his lower range and You raise me up for high notes (he sings it one octave higher than the original). If you want to see something fun I recommend Cotton eye Joe! 🎸🎶😁
Tommy is doing everything by himself and some of his videos are more than just him standing there singing. There are a lot that are more like a music video style where he also wrote the script. And sometimes he invites others as well to his videos. I would recommend Blinding Lights and Viva forever if you like pop going metal and one funny one is I’m Still Standing.
I know what you meant to say, but I want to add that Tommy is NEVER just standing. He's acting in front of the camera, he has a photographic sense of the angles, when to look away, when to address the camera. If you study the videos, there're a lot of cuts and editing. The tempo shifts, some in slow-motion, some rapid, the light shifts, some scenes are unfocused, some in black and white. His headbanging is cut in sometimes in slo-mo 🤣, the different instruments he's playing are inserted, and some photoshopping tricks. Tommy never "stands and sing" in any video. These "self-made" videos are little jems in photo/video art as well.
Subbed for more Tommy. Most of us in Team Tommy are also in Vasc Nation and follow Erik Gronwell. I recommend all of Tommy's songs. "She's Gone" may be more appealing to you, or "The Winner Takes It All". He Tommifies songs and makes them great, I'm not a fan of Country or Folk until Tommy upgrades them❤ He is a great person and has contact with us fans on Fridays, particularly, when he releases a new song. Look forward to more reactions. Ex Eastender living in Lancashire ❤
OMG! You can't compare Tommy J to Dan Vasc. Tommy J is one of the best metal guitarists in the world. He plays 10-11 instruments. He films, records, and edits the videos himself. He plays all the instruments, creates the arrangement, and does the choir on his own. He even writes the scripts for the videos and stage the scenes. Dan Vasc is good, but he's only a singer! Tommy is a musical genius and also an artistic wonder!
Great reaction. The main difference between Tommy and Dan Vasc and Erik Grönwall (both absolutely fantastic singers) is that Tommy plays ALL the instruments himself, apart from the singing of course. He also produces and mixes all by himself.

It's hard to pick from Tommy's extensive repertoire. I don't think this is his best cover. I like Bohemian Rhapsody, but the choices are almost endless. Perhaps check out his former band Sabaton and their song En Livstid i Krig (The Great Tour, Gothenburg) , don't forget the English subtitles.
Dan Vasc sings… Tommy sings, plays guitar, keyboards, bass, even drums on some of his covers.. when its not programmed by him… he does everything except filming . Not even fair comparing his whole talent musically against a pure singer as Dan Vasc is. I am right or wrong? Btw.. this is NOT any crtitism towards you or your channel.. just honest opinion from me. Cheers 🤘
Another great singer (not as great on high notes) is Leo Moracchioli his youtube channel is only metall covers of other songs. But his rendition with Rabea and Hanna of Africa is excellent, other nothworty songs with leo is sultans of swing, dance monkey and country roads. For More Tommy J i would sugest she' s gone or one octave challenge of you raise me up.
So sorry but Dan vasc doesn't deserve to be in the same room as Tommy!! Tommy 25 years Majestica, former lead guitarist of Sabaton, 15 musical instruments, hello!!
Tommy ia a musical genious playing at least 11 instruments and upgrades every song. The best artist in my opinion.
Tommy is the whole package, he is the Master Class of talent! He does ALL of it himself. You need to dive into the rabbit hole. I subbed for Tommy! Team Tommy #tommyjohansson

Tommy is in the band Majestica, and is a former member of the fenomenal band Sabaton.
You have to check out Tommy Johansson and Erik Grönwall's cover of Sabaton's Carolus Rex
It is on Erik's TH-cam page
Oh yeah, it's incredible.
Amazing Tommy ❤️ ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Honor and praise. Welcome to 👑 Tommy Johansson's world. He is a musical treasure.
Tommy is awesome, more Tommy 😍🎸🤩👏

Tommy is so far ahead of Dan Vasc its not funny! 😊
Definitely, Dan is not even close to Tommy!!
@@sylvielefevre4491I can't even compare them.They are totally in different levels and Tommy is on top of them all.❤
totally agreed

😍😍😍 Check out his "You raise me up".... Thanks, fine reaction guys!
Please please do She's Gone. It's fantastic!
More Tommy. He is a musical genius🤩
maybe for modern artist like taylor swift . he covered anti- hero in his own style
New sub, more Tommy please❤
You can`t compare Super Tommy with Dan......Tommy`s talent is way ahead of Dan`s.
You know everyone is entitled to their own opinion. But at the same time, we know that Tommy is the best 🤩
@@Marka-y4w Of course they are...and this was my opinion. 😉
Totally agree. I like Dan and all, but Tommy, he's in a whole other stratosphere.
Erik Gronwall is A-league, and Tommy is definitely getting there.
Dan is unfortunately not even in the same zip code. He tries, though.
Dan Vasc sings… Tommy sings, plays guitar, keyboards, bass, even drums on some of his covers.. when its not programmed by him… he does everything except filming . Not even fair comparing his whole talent musically against a pure singer as Dan Vasc is.
I am right or wrong?
Btw.. this is NOT any crtitism towards you or your channel.. just honest opinion from me.
Cheers 🤘
Thank you I agree
Another great singer (not as great on high notes) is Leo Moracchioli his youtube channel is only metall covers of other songs. But his rendition with Rabea and Hanna of Africa is excellent, other nothworty songs with leo is sultans of swing, dance monkey and country roads. For More Tommy J i would sugest she' s gone or one octave challenge of you raise me up.
Leo and Rabea's rendition of Africa is definitely work a look!!!
So sorry but Dan vasc doesn't deserve to be in the same room as Tommy!! Tommy 25 years Majestica, former lead guitarist of Sabaton, 15 musical instruments, hello!!
I recommend you check-out Skar Productions and Frog Leap Studios for more metal versions of well-known songs and original compositions.
It's actually bit of a disappointment when autotuner kick in, in chorus harmonies. Everybody can hear it. Otherwise great stuff as always from Tommy
not gonna listen to it all. these are one of those the orignal is still better.
toto är inte metal dom är bra men inte hårdrock eller metal
