You can say what you want about me
Want to do what you want to me
But you cannot stop me
I've been knocked down it's a crazy town
Even gotta punch in the face in l.a.
Ain't nothin' in the world that can keep me from doing what I want to do
'Cause I'm too proud, I'm too strong, live by the code that you gotta move on
Feeling sorry for yourself ain't got nobody nowhere
So I (held my head high)
Knew I (knew I'd survive)
Well I made it (I made it)
Don't hate it (don't hate it)
That's just the way it goes
Yeah
I done made it through
Stand on my own two
I paid my dues yeah
Tried to hold me down
You can't stop me now
I paid my dues
So like I told you
You cannot stop me
I paid my dues yeah
Now I'm still trusted everyday and people try to mess with Anastasia
Gotta another thing comin' 'cause I have a mind and I thought I'd better let you know
I'm no punk I can't get down, I don't give a damn about who's around
That's worked just fine 'til now
So I (held my head high)
Knew I (knew I'd survive)
Well I made it (i made it, don't hate it)
Woah
That's just the way it goes
Yeah (i done made it through)
Oh I'll stand on my own two
I paid my dues, yeah
Tried to hold me down
You can't stop me now
I paid my dues
Yeah yeah yeah
Took so long to get me here
But I won't live in fear
Are you tryin' to steal my shine?
First they want to build you up
Then they tear you down
It's a struggle, tryin' a bubble
So I (held my head high)
Knew I... (knew I'd survive)
Woah woah woah (I made it, don't hate it)
Said that's just the way.....
I said I paid my, I paid my dues
Yeah yeah yeah
But you can't stop me now
I paid my, paid my due... oh woah woah woah
Oh I paid my I paid my dues
Yeah
But you can't stop me now
I paid my dues

I was obsessed with this song in the early 2000s, lovely to see your take on it!
Tommy !!!!! Jij bent 20 jaar te laat geboren . Het is een eer om te zien, dat een jonge kerel zoals jij zo gek is van muziek uit vervlogen tijden. 👏👏🙏

Aivan hämmentävän loistavaa jälleen kerran ! Vackert! 🤘🤘🤘💥 You've done an extraordinary and splendid job with this song,beautiful as always. Looks and sounds good👌🙃👍
Круто, Томми, реально круто! Вокал и соло гитары великолепны! И ваша улыбка!
Why didn't I know anything about this cover until now thanks to Instagram?! You brilliantly managed to unite metal with Anastacia, the idol of my childhood and one of my biggest inspirations ❤️. I Do, Seasons Change, Boxer and Pain would sound great in a power metal version, too...well, you proved several times that anything can be "metallized" 🤘🏻
Вот и пришла пятница! И Томми сделал мой день! Восхитительно и одно удовольствие! Кайф, драйв,отличная работа!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🤟

Салам брат. Обожаю Томми. Настоящая Музыка существует и это круто!
Goosebumps all the way🎸 Thanks Tommy🤘
Same powerfulnes and determination as Anastacia!! Thankyou 🙏🌹💚🤍❤️
Simply perfect ❤❤❤
It's FRI-YAY again, and as usual we get another present from Maestro Johansson. And what a classic old banger it is! As good as his cover is, the video is even more fun. This is nothing really special as far as production goes, shot probably in less than a hour, run through two or three times for footage and better angles and such. It's nice to see him playing with the special editing effects as well. If he was going to have a video to play around with stuff, this was the perfect one to do that to.
Another awesome fantastic song by the legend Tommy johansson playing his amazing guitar 🎸 🎤🤘🏻💀🤘🏻🤘🏻💀🤘🏻
Now that's a top show, thank you.
Tommy, you look prettier😊😊😊! It looks like a snowdrop that is about to bloom! I do not know when snowdrops will bloom in Sweden, in Russia they have already appeared in Kaliningrad :))). In Sweden, the Tommy flower still fascinates with its beauty! The one and only! I liked this rebellious song! It reflects your character, your male indomitable strength and bright energy. Your powerful vocals have opened up from all sides. A delight to my ears. It seems to me that you are not very angry yet, there may be more fire in you! You're holding back a little bit. Let your emotions spill out naturally, don't hold back. This will have a beneficial effect on your psyche and creativity. It's wonderful that you're in such a mood. Only you know what suits you. Discover your talent, go your own way, I wish you God and love to guide you! May your road be full of love, light, fire and power💖🔥💖🔥! So that any difficulties can be overcome! You're already strong enough for this! I believe in you. Thanks for the powerful song🌞🌟🥰❤️👏👏👏🎸😍🤗!!!! You're beautiful in it.😜😜😜
Tommy you are the wizard of covers... a true magician... a star... no matter what type of song or genre... you shine! 🤘😎🤘 Your guitarplay and voice is top notch! Du är G R Y M! 💪🇸🇪
Strong message and a great powerful cover 💪👏 Fantastic job 🔥🤘 lots better than the original 😎👍
Super super Tommy, díky za skvělý rockový zážitek. Jsi jedinečný 👍💪Fandím Ti a mám ráda Tvé skvělé písně. 👏Ať se Ti daří. Zdravím z Ostravy 🇨🇿🇨🇿🇨🇿
Tommy, simlpy the best😍
You make me a proud Swede!
Some how I feel there is a second meaning to this song. Strong words strong meaning Wonderful voice great music. All things to make a stand out song
Wow! It was awesome. Better than the original I must say. And the effects are fire 🔥. I really enjoyed it. Now let me watch it again and again and again! 😉
The song took on a "Swedish style", I like it!!!!!! Rock on!!!!🎸🎸🎸🎸Grande!

Fire!!!
Don't know if anyone has already mentioned this but another cover for this song was performed by Jaded Heart, a rock\metal band that performed really well with this song. I haven't heard the original by Anastacia(if that is the original) but the Jaded Hearts version was the first version I heard which was suggested to me from Spotify after one of my playlists ended. Both Tommy's and Jaded Hearts versions are awesome.

Well if you haven''t heard about her, i don't blame you. Anastacia is not that popular in the US. Most of her success is in Europe
Would love to hear a metal cover of Never Ending Story.
Yet another awesome performance! Bravo! Love it, many thanks, 💛
King Tommy 🖤💜☠️
Thank you Tommy J made Anastacia song brand new version ❤🤝 😊🤘
Better than the original Song ❤!!
Tommy, I was really curious to see how you would sing this song, because I'm not a big fan of Anastacia (sorry).🤭 And I didn't know this song at all, I listened to it for the first time yesterday. But I have to say that your version of this song is much better than the original for me. ☺😘 And your new 🎸 is very very beautiful. (Charvel of course)👍😉 I'm sure you're very happy with this new guitar. 🤩 Thank you and glorious weekend! 🙏☺
Anastacia’s hit with that iconic voice and stage performance gets even more epic in your powerful version❣️🎼🎸Nothing can stop YOU now!
Awesome ❤ another masterpiece. Thanks Tommy 💝
Talent and beautiful voice. without drugs and you will be recognized as one of the greats of rock

Terrific Tommy !! You’re the bomb!You never disappoint your fans .. Thank you for sharing your AWESOME talents with the world♥️
Thank you Tommy, this is exactly what I need in my life. Beeing able in 2024 to listen to "new" metal music in sound of the 80s. :)
Супер обработка. Молодец!❤❤❤❤
Den small högre än originalet 💣💥 No offense Anastacia 🥰 Tommy you made my Day 😎🤘🎸🎶
Wonderful, as usual! Can you do a cover on "Highway man" (J. Cash)? I would be most greatful!
Another banger, Tommy
More Italian pop Songs please❤❤❤
Another great cover. This one is as good as other songs you've done. Keep up the good work Tommy 🤘🤘🎸🎸
Thank you, Tommy. ❤you saved my day again😊 grandma from Finland 🎉
o m f g i loved this song in my childhood and hearing it like this, and with your voice, it's more than perfect. i will listen to it non stop, i have to much memories connected to this song
Tommy, I really like what you're doing. A true rocker, a true Metal boy. 🤘🤘 Well done, I'm happy for you, the feeling, the power of the voice, everything is just OK.
Perfect match. You make the version in my head of those riffy pop songs reality. A fan since swedish hitz, it's a pleasure to get fresh metalized pop hitz.
Anastacia is a powerful singer but so are you so you did that awesome ❤
So nice, I hope you will do an album with your own songs in exactly this direction. - Hard Rock in the 80's style!!
Very nice!
Yesssss ❤❤❤❤❤
Yes, you've paid your dues, no question about that! But I will always love Sabaton!, that will never change!! That said, I can't wait to see what comes next!! You have a talent that the world needs to see and hear, now more than ever. Keep rocking Tommy, and good luck!!!
Fasen va bra😊👍👍👍

Wow. Just wow 😍😍😍

Fantastic, beautiful, wonderful metal version..very good..great performance. Tommy 🤟 You are a number 1
I remember this song back when it was released and Tommy just turned it all the way up to the stratosphere. What a kickass cover. Well done Tommy. ❤
it was great and I'm pleasantly surprised even though I didn't expect it to be Anastacia 👍 However, I am not the right person to judge what I listened to because simply I like the sound of your voice, regardless of what you sing 🤫 The guitar sounded beautiful 💥 ❤🩹
Wow!!!! Another epic cover from you Tommy! Trust me, when you decide to make more Albums with Majestica, or decide to do a solo album, make no mistake! I WILL DEFINITELY buy it! This song made my day!
