HALLOWED BE THY NAME - Erik Grönwall (Iron Maiden Cover)
Hey rockers! As requested here's my cover of Iron Maiden - Hallowed Be Thy Name.
A big shout out to the amazing musicians (mentioned below) who helped me perform this beast, especially since the majority of the song is instrumental... but hey... who need singers?

I'm waiting in my cold cell when the bell begins to chime
Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time
Cos at five o'clock they take me to the gallows pole
The sands of time for me are running low
Running low, yeah
When the priest comes to read me the last rites
Take a look through the bars at the last sights
Of a world that has gone very wrong for me
Can it be that there's some sort of error?
Hard to stop the surmounting terror
Is it really the end, not some crazy dream?
Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming
It's not easy to stop from screaming
But words escape me when I try to speak
Tears fall, but why am I crying?
After all, I'm not afraid of dying
Don't I believe that there never is an end?
As the guards march me out to the courtyard
Somebody cries from a cell, "God be with you"
If there's a God, why has He let me go?
As I walk, my life drifts before me
And though the end is near, I'm not sorry
Catch my soul, it's willing to fly away
Mark my words, believe my soul lives on
Don't worry now that I have gone
I've gone beyond to seek the truth
When you know that your time is close at hand
Maybe then you'll begin to understand
Life down here is just a strange illusion
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hallowed be thy name
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hallowed be thy name
Yeah

Being a Maiden fan since 1981,Erik killed this,I’ve heard a lot of people trying to cover this and this is one of the best I’ve heard
My favourite song performed by an incredible voice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m a long time fan. Currently 53 and I’ve seen them 8 times. I appreciate the band more than anyone can imagine and that just simply blew my mind . Every singer in the world who thinks his poop doesn’t stink should be wary because Erik sings everything better than they can😊

Truly the best cover I’ve ever seen/heard… EVER!! Immaculate vocals, spotless instrumentals, and he looks like he’s having so much fun!! Up the irons, with perfection, Sir Grönwell! You, my friend, have captured brilliance!🤘🏻🤘🏻

WOW. I went to a Skid Row concert last night in Reno and that was my first introduction to this amazing young man. I mean, I knew nothing about him but what a live performance he put on! I mean this dudes voice is incredible live and he brought such energy and passion to the stage from the first to the last song, just non stop! I am a fan!
Insane, mindblowing good!
It’s hard to do Justice to a Bruce song and you did my friend. Killer!!!
Now this is real talent, no auto tune, no computer crap. Just pure raw instruments and singing! This guy is awesome, Mr Gronwell if u see this, can U please do a cover of Come Sail Away? That would be awesome

Oh yeah! Keep Rockin’ Erik! This song is on the gold standard “can you rock” list for me!
If this guy is real and not some A. I. creation. Great voice some of y best covers I have ever heard. Mad props dude.
You are not from this planet. I'm amazed. what a voice 🤟
His voice is transcending! ❤
Holy hell, you've got some pipes, Erik. Like many others, I heard about you through Skid Row, and you've gained a new, life long fan out of me.
I'm late to the Erik party, but so glad I found you when looking for "Run to the HIlls" covers. From there I've begun an incredible journey listening to your remarkable talent. Your tones shake up everything! So glad your professional life has brought you the fore. I'm an old guy who lived and loved the heavy metal days, and you have resurrected them - with a new twist that does you so much credit. The musicians you have are totally gifted, too, and I've replayed the videos with them just to hear each of their skills. Good luck, thank you, and I am a total supporter!

Same here I am going to see skid row in September. Erik is without a doubt the best vocalist I've heard in recent memory. Amazing, there is nothing he can't nail. Not many can pull off maiden simply because Bruce is in a class above but, bygod Erik did it without a doubt
Now when you've got into Iron Maiden, please do a Wasted Years or Aces High cover! Would be epic 🤟

Great cover version. Very true to the original, but that's probably why I liked it so much. :D

Hello Erick, I see that you are fully and recovered, I am very happy and that you have not lost an iota of your strength, encouragement and congratulations for the new version, as always, of 10.
DUDE YOU RIVAL THE BEST 100%
Holy sh*t. Nailed it. What an amazing voice, one of the best rock voices in the world I think.
Hey man,CONGRATULATIONS on getting the spot in Skid Row!! A true testament to vignot only the vox but also the huge SAVVY to be able to hang with the big boys. Press,writing,interviews, and general professionalism that the industry requires. Godspeed to tou for.a very lo g and successful career!!
Great!
Эрик, это просто потрясающе!🔥🔥🔥, спасибо!👏👏👏

Another GREAT job, as always! It's so good to see this man kicking ass. You're amazing Erik..
I've said on another maiden cover that he was the best metal vocalist and you more than smashed it. The more I listen, your vocals are incredibly similar to the point I don't think a purist could tell the difference. Awesome
Amazing!🤟🇧🇷

How enjoyable was that ? Well, very ! Amazing singing as always, this is a song that I´ve carried with me almost 40 years now., it is just so special. Props to the musicians too, guitar solo was refreshing, he made it his own, without loosing too much originality. And bonus point goes to Jens, as I´m listening this with my AKG K 240 headset, it looked good on you too, Jens :-)
