Here we stand
Worlds apart, hearts broken in two, two, two
Sleepless nights
Losing ground, I'm reaching for you, you, you
Feeling that it's gone
Can't change your mind
If we can't go on
To survive the tide
Love divides
Someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you
How we touched and went our separate ways
If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you
Though we touched and went our separate ways
Troubled times
Caught between confusion and pain, pain, pain
Distant eyes
Promises we made were in vain, in vain, in vain
If you must go
I wish you luck
You'll never walk alone
Take care, my love
Miss you, love
Someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you
How we touched and went our separate ways
If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you
Though we touched and went our separate ways
Oh, someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you
If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you
I still love you, girl
I really love you, girl
And if he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
No!
No!

His vocals are crazy good, but let’s acknowledge the band too. They sang and played the heck out of this song! I felt like I was at a Journey concert again.
100%
This kid is a beast. Just saw him on Thursday night (4/14/22) in Las Vegas with Skid Row and he won over the crowd. Myself included. The place went nuts and everyone was hyped and talking about him before the Scorpions came on. He is the real deal.
Ultimate compliment. Thank you! I'm happy you liked the show.
I really belive you:) It must have bean a great show. I have liked Erik since he won Idol here in Sweden. He have an amazing voice and I really like his new group. Listen to it. It`s called New Horizon. When they tour around here I´m going of course:)
I’m going to see Skid Row in Pompano Beach, FL on May 20th. I bought my ticket before Erik joined the band and was lukewarm about the show. Now I can’t wait to see them bring the house down.
I was at that Thursday show and I remember being in the men's room between sets and people were commenting all over about how impressed they were.
@@jorge242 - LOL, I was one of them. Yeah, the crowd was super hyped on him when Skid Row was done playing. Everyone was like "wow, didn't expect that!"
I’m 66 and I know good music. I love him. ❤
Erik should be in a Sony studio booth.. One of the best voices in a very long time
Thanks Andrew!
I’m 58 and have seen all versions of Journey. Steve, Dean & Erik are in a league of their own. This boy can outright sing Journey or anything else. So glad I discovered his TH-cam channel
OMG...just heard your Faithfully cover and as a Journey fanatic, your voice is as pure and soulful as Steve Perry's. Incredible vocalist! May God bless you and your future.
Thank you Ken!
Unbelievable execution of one of the most beloved Journey songs. I am totally in awe.
One of the catchiest songs ever written and both Steve and Eric are perfect singers. We also did a cover of the song th-cam.com/video/YD54tb9o9YY/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared and it's really not easy to sing.
People gonna hate me for this but I’m gonna say it anyway I prefer Erik’s version more then the original one SORRY guys
I agree🎉🎉🎉
Mi too brother
I've always been a bg Steve Perry fan but have just changed my mind. Switched to Swedish singers such as Erik and Tommy Johansson. ❤😊
Nope both!😊
I love them both.
For all those aspiring singers out there - this guy understands vowel sounds. Sure this song requires range and power. But listen again to Erik's vowels when he sings. It's critical to his performance in this, and really any, song. Great job. I've heard tons of covers of this song. This is, in my opinion, is the best one out there. And it really isn't even close.
TOTAL PERFECTION 🔥🤘🔥
Por Dios
Couldn't agree with you more. This guy is pretty amazing and very talented
I could not make out what you meant at the end when you said "And it really isn't even close." You mean Erik's version isn't even close to Steve Perry's or you mean others' isn't even close to Erik's version? I'd appreciate the clarification.
@@hsevay he means as far as covers go, this is the best by far
Like I’ve said in the past. Best and strongest voice in rock n roll today. Such strong vocals. Eric please take care of that gifted voice man so we can enjoy it for many decades.
lolololololol
100% agree with you.
I liked his voice when he was the singer in H.E.A.T thus I agree with you 'on the Talent' part. But don't forget 'This Amount Of Compression' on the leadvocal, adds a Lot to the power sound. And indeed: "Take care of that voice.."
Sweet sweet man. Great singer.
The power and range of his voice is incredible. He belongs on the world's stage. outstanding
As a Journey fan myself, I have to say that this is the best cover I've listened to by far and an outstanding vocal rendition of one of Steve Perry's best melody lines ever sung . Skid Row guys are luckiest ones of having such an extraordinary singer aboard as a frontman. All the admiration for your talent and devoted work is well deserved, Mr Grönwall.
Thank you sir!
@ my pleasure!
Great song but FAR from Steve's best work in terms of melody
No doubt that this version is amazing but I suggest you to listen to André Matos one, don’t you agree Erik?
Fantastic voice Erik!
Best cover hands down, he actually has the power behind his voice and emphasizes everything very well. This song is actually very hard to sing for those who have never tried.
Totally agree !!!
I discovered Erik just a couple of nights ago and I can't stop listening to him. All the songs that I've heard him sing are all of my all time favorites, from Journey, Deep Purple, Whitesnake and all the rest that Erik shares on You Tube, and his excution of all of these songs is coming from another dimension. Absolute perfection, incredible singer. Also a big shout out to all the musicians that perform along side Erik, mesmerizing musicianship and masters of their craft.
Thanks dude!
Erik I can't get enough of this rendition....ya killed it 💯 🎤 🎶
Can you imagine what it must feel like to sing like that ? So jealous !
This guys voice is INCREDIBLE 🔥
Thanks Malcolm
Ridiculous talent
This dude is one of the best vocalists I've ever heard.
Could you please check out my singing too. I am just okay singer but hope you can check it out. Thank you ~
The best singer on the rockstage these days 🖤
Listen to John Corabi Or Dino that have sung for Dead Daisies there both top shelf as well
He uses a voice enhancement fase
@@randylawrence7351He was in Swedish Idol when he was like 16 yo, singing 18 and life. No effects there, I can assure you. 😉
AMAZING! Everyone can tell Erik is having the time of his life! He's just killing it with everything he does! 🤟😎
I'm having fun! Thanks Jimmy.
Double that sentiment!! Makes amazing performance even MORE amazing when you know the performer is having a blast!! And PLEASE give some attention/ info for your STELLAR fantastic players!! Been watching them with just admiration as well in the vids!!! 😃😃
And I’m having the time of my life enjoying!!! Never stop Erik 🤩🤩
It's fuck!🤘🤘
Erik grönwall! Helt klart Sveriges bästa sångröst! Grym cover på en grymt bra låt ❤️
*I'm Brazilian, I really like Skid Row. After Sebastian left the band needed a singer to match. You are doing an excellent job.*
Thank you very much!
He has a great, God given gift! His voice. No one can teach you how to sing like that! Only a few have this gift. Erik, Steve Perry, and of course Freddie Mercury. Love them all. Erik is a true talent. Keep going kid!🎸👚🥁🎼
Here we stand
Worlds apart, hearts broken in two, two, two
Sleepless nights
Losing ground
I'm reaching for you, you, you
Feelin' that it's gone
Can change your mind
If we can't go on
To survive the tide love divides
Someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you
How we touched
And went our separate ways
If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you
Though we touched
And went our separate ways
Troubled times
Caught between confusions and pain, pain, pain
Distant eyes
Promises we made were in vain, vain, vain
If you must go, I wish you love
You'll never walk alone
Take care my love
Miss you love
(chorus twice)
I still love you girl
I really love you girl
And if he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
No, No
Great Job. When I heard you took the Skid Row lead I thought we might see less of these but you are amazing are are keeping up with it. Thank you.
I will make sure to find the time to keep these videos coming. I have way too much fun doing this.
@ how about New Horizon? I really loved the album, got time for tour both bands?
@ Eric, what would really cool is if you out out album of all original material cut in the same vein as these songs you are covering. There is no doubt in my mind you could release a killer album of "80's" rock. A great album of journey, survivor, tesla, guns n roses style material would be great with you on vocals. By the great, great job killing the Skid Row material. I can't wait for the new album.
@@SlynigaSylve I‘d also be interested in knowing if New Horizon will continue, at least as a studio project. The debut was great!
@ if the Journey band hears this ya might be recruited into double duty! Lead singer for two huge bands!
WOW! Standing up to a voice like Steve Perry's isn't for everyone! Congrat's !
Steve who?
Never ever thought someone else would nail a Jornney numberwell done
🎉.
You literally nailed the Steve Perry vocals. Unreal dude. Not many people on this earth can pull this off this well. You have some magic in there Brother !!!!!!
and Neal is reaching for his phone now
I think Neil Schon should listen to this and invite Eric to come onstage and sing this one with the band. It’s breathtaking and perfectly executed.
I think Neil Schon doesn’t deserve Erik…
@@70schick36 no he doesn’t. 🤣
One of the best voices in rock music. Erik Grönwall you are absof*ckinglutely amazing! Thanks for sharing your incredible talent with us. 🤟
Thank you for listening !
Gahdamn man, is there anything you CAN'T sing and absolutely NAIL it?! One of the best vocalists/frontmen in the scene!!
Glam--He has talent but you are deaf if you don't hear all the effects added to his voice here.
Plus something he cannot sing?
Of course his own pitch and style that he don't.
Imitating Bach doesn't give you a respected name.
You have to bring yourself,,here.
@@stevedamien638 I think you the deaf one if you can’t give this man props for what he does. This guy is super talented and the best singer Skid Row has had in the last 25 or more years. This guy is filling the
shoes of a great singer, that’s like saying Arnel Pineda can’t sing because he imitates Steve Perry. These are great singers holding there owe to the past great singers.
Cheers Steve!
@@stevedamien638 you’re assuming Steve didn’t use these same effects in the studio, and you’re wrong.
VERY WELL SAID !!
Erik! this is absolutely amazing. I just wanted to tell you a quick story if you don't mind. I am a caregiver for my father, he is disabled he has not been able to walk since I was about five years old (I am turning 30 in June) & he raised me by himself after my mother left when I was young. Music is something that we have always bonded over, and because he grew up in the 80's, I was for the most part raised around bands from the 70's and 80's. Skid Row has been one of my favorite bands since I was about seven or eight years old and he found H.E.A.T online a few years after you had joined and we were instantly hooked. Now seeing you overcome everything you have and becoming the lead singer of Skid Row has just made us so happy and we are so proud to see you killing it and I just wanted to say thank you for everything that you have done and will continue to do in the future. Keep up all the great work man, you deserve it so much. 😊🤘
Wow, thank you for sharing that story Brandon. Amazing. Say hi to your father! Keep rocking!
When it was announced that Erik is the new singer for Skid Row, I'd never heard of him. After hearing the new single and many other TH-cam videos of him performing with the band, it's clear he's the guy for the job. I always thought Johnny was a great singer and never thought any of the others fit the band at all. Erik does. Since then, I've seen video after video of him and this guy is amazing. I'm glad he landed the gig and very glad that Skid Row has a singer who can really bring it.
I’m a big Journey fan. Thank you for covering the journey song your voice is amazing. Skid Row must be so lucky to found you as their new lead vocals. I was at the Zappos last week. That was an epic show. Erik’s voice definitely meant for the band sounds like the Skid Row was bring back to life. Best of luck to Erik & the rest of his new band mates 🤘🏼🔥🎤❤️🎸🎶🙏🏼
Oh wow, that's insane!! Exellent job! I'm sure you make Steve Perry proud with this one, big shoes to fill and you nailed it!
After listening to this cover for all of 10 seconds had every goose bump on my body standing straight up. Damn this dude is really amazing and deserves all the attention he's receiving. Also just another sober reminder that rock n roll will NEVER die and still 100% craps all over rap, country, and every other form of non rock idiocy that pollutes the air waves. Long live rock n roll
The original is the Mecca but there are a few versions, like this one, that meet it. Daughtry and Lizzy Hale also hit the mark. It’s a testament to the original that all these years later it’s still inspiring singers to test their vocals.
I am a LONG TIME Steve Perry fan, and I am speechless! Other covers I’ve heard of “Separate Ways” have not been sung with the same passion that Steve had while performing this epic song. But Erik, you completely NAILED IT! 😊
I am a huge Steve Perry fan. This is amazing and the only cover of this song I can listen too.. Awesome dude!
Wow been huge fan since he came on the scene. Your a great singer all your covers are top notch
Holy crap! Was referred to this kid from a guy who commented on Tommy Johansson’s version of this tune, which was awesome. Have to say Erik’s vocal prowess is absolutely incredible! Great tone, range and power. Gotta check out more of his stuff!
This is absolutely the best voice in rock!!! Eric Gronwall is and always has been amazing!!! We want more!!!!
I hold Steve Perry as the best male rock singer ever - but being a Swede you Erik make me soo proud. Your feel , techniqe & timing is amazing - and at as close as anyone has been to Steve. Ever.period. Best of luck with SkidRow!!!
In my opinion Steve Perry is one of the best vocalist in the world along with Ian G, Freddie M, R Plant, etc. But this guy has succeed to cover it, amazing, yeah 👍👍👍
Song is great and you sing it super great...🤟🇫🇮🤟
You should dump the old burned out geezers in skids and build a super group...you are way above them talent wise. Hopefully you are getting half the money
That is truly the best cover of separate ways I've ever heard, the entire band is excellent and the vocals are incredible great work
Hi mr Erik, awsome cover as always :) Another cover tip for you. You Better Wait - Steve Perry. Would be interesting to see your take on it :) your vocals would be awsome for it. Keep rocking! Keep the blue sky up!
Your voice is the purest instrument I’ve heard in a very long time. Captivating ❤️
Du är grym Erik!!
Detta är min favoritlåt med Journey,och du gör den fan lika bra som Steve Perry.
Hoppas du orkar fortsätta med dina covers,längtar till nästa låt.
This is just beautiful. No oversinging or attempts to overshine the original. Sounds just fantastic
He is unreal. Whoa
UN-BELIEVABLE!! This guy has got one of the clearest/cleanest voices I’ve heard in for-ever👍👏👏❣️
The man With 100 Voices !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pure Beast,,,
This was excellent. It was the Perfect song choice performed by a group of talented individuals. Cheers Erik and co.👍
this song is amazing! you did a great job, as always 🥰 and hey, look at Jona soloing! great job too!
Thank you Mariana! Yeah.. that guy can play everything.
@ he is amazing! ❤️
Impressive. Neal Schon calling in 3....2....1...
busting heads back on those drums! inspiration!! thanks ya'll !! rock on!!
Just discovered you and you are fantastic! Incredible vocals!
ERIK……you are absolutely amazing! I’m so glad you’re with Skid Row. However these cover songs are off the charts! Would love to hear you do Faithfully and release it as a single. Keep up the fantastic job and hope to see you close to Southwest Virginia with Skid Row!
Have only just discovered you and so enjoying your vocals! On each song I'm looking forward to how you will deliver on certain parts - your range and the way you belt out with such apparent ease, just incredible! Your musicians on this song are amazing! Thank y'all for sharing your talents!
Great job, took a great song and made it your own, you have a really powerful voice, I'd like to hear how you sound singing this song live on stage.
Great cover..Santiago city from fucking Chile🇨🇱😈🔛😈🔛😈🔛😈🔛😈🔛😈
Outstanding! It's like you and your band are channeling all these musicians! I can't get over how great you all sound!
What the hell?! How am I just now finding out about this incredible singer? What a great voice and he seems to sing such difficult songs so effortlessly. Wow, wow, wow!
It's safe to say that Perry is never coming back... Even journey fans are over it, Arnel is good, and it was great. This guy would be fantastic in a journey, but who would want it? Journey is a mess!!
Erik you are on fire!!!! omg 😳 I love all your covers and you absolute lit up Vegas in March. I was front row in the Eddie Trunk Interview... you shook my hand at the end... your smile can melt the world!
I saw you live 3/26 & 3/30 and You blew me and all of away. What stage prescence and amazing voice! I haven't bn a fan of Skid row in ages (yesI am old lol) but I am now... sharing your vids...you rock! love ya!!!❤️🤘🌹⭐💯
Super Proud of you Erik, you are doing a FABULOUS job fronting Skidrow! As I mentioned in another post, I grew up in New Jersey, spent time with Snake and Rachel as much younger men at the music stores and even spent time with Sebastian , I know he would give you a Big Thumbs up! Keep going, give it everything you have , you are the best singer since Sebastian, THATS THE TRUTH ! Record some new Songs with the boys, dig in and sing your heart out , we are all starting to Love this Great New Singer Named Erik Gronwall ! God Bless! J...
Amazing. Thank you J.D! Appreciate it a lot.
@ We’ve got your back , give it everything you got ! I think you are going to be a superstar! My only wish is that you and Sebastian could be friends , I think you two would have so much fun together, you are both great singers a huge music fans …. Perhaps in time ! God bless ! J…
This dude is what rock needed again!
Best version of steve perrys masterpiece!Amazing voice*****SPECTACULAR!
steve perry is one of the greatest voices ever and Erik you are an absolute beast, that was beyond incredible.
Fark! Your vocals are insane Eric!!!! I’m a massive fan now🤘
Cheers man!
THANK U SO MUCH ☺️ IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST EVER I HEARD THIS SONG 😊
Erik and Dino Jelusic are the two best vocalists in Hard Rock/Heavy Metal today.
OK, so when Arnel Pineda decides to go "separate ways " from Journey (hopefully he doesn't) we know who is to replace him!
How is it possible that every song you sing is so incredibly outstanding?! Wow. I hope to see you live soon. Please come to Europe and Italy! 🥰
Dude I'd love to hear your take on queensryche.
Som alltid lika fantastiskt bra! Hoppas du släpper ett album med alla låtar du kör, blir århundradets platta! Tack Erik! 🙏👑🙏
I'd take Erik over Arnel easy. Dude has SERIOUS pipes. I like that he doesn't try to emulate he original.
Holy shit I'm sitting here with goosebumps the size of golfballs! Erik your voice is truly amazing 🤘
~that's what we thought also!! 🙌🏽🤘🤘⭐️
You put so much passion in your singing. You can really tell you mean what you sing. I never want the song to end. Your vocals are truly memorizing!! ❤
Awesome cover! Just saw the show last night, you were incredible! The perfect fit for Skid Row!
Damn man! Respect. One of the best voices I’ve heard in many years. Steve Perry is probably hearing this somewhere and smiling his ass off! Beautifully done.
I absolutely love your version!!!! ❤️ I have been requesting this since forever, sooooooo happy you finally made it!!!! 🔥 Please upload it to Spotify!!!! 🙏🏻
Wow. Awesome Erik - well done dude. My only comment would be that you're giving it all from the throat and there are no rest pieces so I doubt you'd have a voice if you did a 3-4 month tour with a Journey list. But still frikken awesome to hear - not many people on the planet can do that at all. Kudos to you.
I love you Erik! I have followed you since you were in Jesus Christ Superstar. Drove out to Vegas to see you in Skid Row-you were incredible. What an amazing journey for you. May I request I'll Never Let You Go by Steelheart as a cover?
That should be great🤘🙏
Sheck out Neverdie Sweden🙏
Deserves more than 100k subs… this is better than the original IMO, his voice is crazy good and the band is killing it too!
This sounds so clean. From the vocals, to guitars.. Everything!
I remember when this song came out it’s all you heard on the radio.Fuck this remake maybe better than the original song.Dude has some great pipe’s for a singer!! The band was tight.Bravo Bravo 👏
Wow...this is fantastic! After hearing you perform with Skid Row in Tucson, I heard and commented on your cover of Elvis' Trouble, but this! My favorite Journey song and now your cover is on my playlist for my daily runs/jogs right along with Def Leppard, the Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin. Just a thought, might sound crazy, but have you considered a cover of George Michael's Freedom? With your talent, I think you'd totally rock it.
He did an amazing job. Been a Journey fan for a long long time. Awesome job. Better than journey.
I really appreciate the fact that you have maintained this channel in light of Skid Row. Killer performance here, as always!
I'm having way too much fun with these covers. It's my little playground.
Fantastic that you are keeping doing this🤘🤘🤘. Is a good way to practice the voice😉👍.
And välkommen home to Sweden again when it is time for some rest.
Sensacional, no Brasil o André matos fez uma versão ótima, só um pouco mais pesada. Erik está arrebentando no skid.
Tá explicado a demora na escolha do vocalista . O skid Row acertou na mosca.
First saw you on a Skid Row video a few minutes ago and now you cover my favorite singer .. dude ... You're very gifted as others have said. Take care of the that voice! 🙂 I'm 55 and have some range but not for long endurances. You have the range , power and endurance. So amazed! Fabulous!
This guy is the greatest wow. You go my brother
Wow, I have not heard a voice like yours in a very long time. Amazing
As fantastic as the original, no doubt. In my honest opinion, perhaps better than that. Erik, you have a talent from God!
Phenomenal! I mean, I close my eyes and swear this is Steve Perry. Same for when you sing Skid Row songs. You're close. So damn close to sounding like Sebastian Bach. I hear the difference though. But, absolutely fabulous. Hope you write your own lyrics. Come up with original songs. Looking forward to that album. All the best in the world. You've earned a subscribber.
I'd rather hear this version any day and twice on Sunday over Arnell's copycat version. Props to the band too!
Saw the skid row show in Munich 2 days ago and even got the VIP pack where we had the chance to talk with the band for a couple of minutes. Not only is he an amazing singer but also incredibly nice. Even with just a couple of people there, everyone in the band really took their time to make the fans feel welcome. We imagined a band like skid row being used to having thousands of fans at their shows, so why would they care about 10-15 people, but they sat down on the stage and really had a conversation with everyone and everyone could take pictures and ask them questions, it was amazing. Afterwards the concert really felt like you knew the people on stage and it made it feel even more special. The next time they are in germany, I will definitely be seeing them again.
@@biker7028 do you genuinely use the phrase "skid low" twice in 2 separate comments and still think your opinion matters?
@biker7028 no. This isn't a discussion. And even if it was, it's still pretty clear that your opinion is worthless.
@@biker7028 once again, your opinion is bad and you should feel bad.
I just saw you tonight in Tucson with Skid Row. I’m the one in the hotel lobby that said you have one of the greatest voices I’ve ever heard, and I meant it! I’m a voice teacher and I come from a background of opera, musical theater, and singing in metal bands. You are unbelievable! You are truly blessed with a gift. 🙏
There's nothing this guy can't sing. Amazing voice and presence. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊
The question is not can this incredibly talented guy can hit Steve Perry’s notes but whether or not he can hit them them two hours a night, three nights a week, forty weeks a year for 20+ years!
Dont you stress what and how long he can do what, just be like the rest of us..... CRAZY OVER ERIK GRÖNWALL AND HIS VOICE 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
The amount of talent you have staggers me every time I hear you sing. You are a complete phenomenon
You’ll become one of the greatest singers of all time. Keep rockin’ it!
Absolutely 💯excellent, perfection on top soul, in key, and timing. It has been a long time since I heard this song. Thank God you joined Skid Row. You have it man, don't stop. My friends and my very first concert was Guns N' Roses with Skid Row in summer of 1991. Hopefully you will come to Los Angeles someday.
