    “Without You” was written and released in 1970 by the band Badfinger, but made famous by Harry Nilsson from his 1971 album, Nilsson Schmilsson. This song has been a favorite of mine since 1971. Harry’s performance is EPIC! It reached #1 in the US and held the spot for four weeks. Mariah Carey released it in 1994. Its US release date of 21 January 1994 ironically fell a week after Nilsson had died following a heart attack on 15 January 1994. Her version reached #3 in the US.

      It was released as the third single off Music Box in the first quarter of 1994, its US release date was January 21, 1994.

    You should know that Erik Grönwall is more than just a talented singer; he’s a true example of courage, strength to never give up, and the power of dreams. His big break came in 2009 on Swedish Idol, where he wowed audiences with Skid Row’s "18 and Life." As a longtime fan of the band, their music had always fueled his own rock ambitions.
    Winning Idol launched him into a career with H.E.A.T and an international fanbase. In 2021, however, Erik was diagnosed with leukemia, but he fought through treatment and emerged cancer-free. Shortly after, he received a dream offer: to become Skid Row’s new lead singer. Accepting, he recorded The Gang’s All Here, bringing his journey full circle. From an audition as a fan to leading his favorite band, Erik’s story is nothing short of inspiring.

    It's like history is being rewritten! This song was written and preformed by the awesome Pete Ham and Tom Evans from 'Badfinger' in 1970 I think. It was made famous by 'Harry Neilson' in 1971 and 'Heart' did a great cover in '77 as well.
    Check out 'Badfinger - No Matter What' or Baby Blue for a slower tune.

    You need to now listen to Harry Nilsson’s version. It’s still the best. Erik Grönwall sang on Michael Schenker’s new album of UFO songs from Michael’s time in UFO. The song also features Slash. Links below.

    Now the mystery song that hardly now one here has heard of because they all are too young or have been or are being distracted. ALL TRUE. LISTEN TO JOURNEY SUZANNE and you will not be able to stop guaranteed. Then listen to it at night before going to bed. It was a song practically hidden from the world but is a masterpiece in the album. I REPEAT DO NOT LISTEN TO IT LIVE. Listen to the original song from the album youtube has the song from the, "Raised on Radio" album. Then be blown away by the range of Steve Perry's voice and the crying guitar of Neal Schon. ALL TRUE. And as a special PRECIOUS GIFT go see Jonathan Kleck youtube channel, the Angel of the Church of Philadelphia mentioned in revelation 3:7 that the Apostle John wrote about. ALL 100% TRUE.

    Mariah Carey’s cover is the absolute worst. Absolutely no emotion in her version. Just screaming. Without You is NOT Mariah’s song.
    Harry Nilsson’s version is the best, hands down. Badfinger’s original is also fantastic.
