SKID ROW - 18 AND LIFE (Tommy Johansson)
Музыка
Finally it's time to make this glorious song!
When I heard the end of this song on VH1 at the age of 15 I knew I wanted to become a singer and went online and BOUGHT a Skid Row album without knowing the name of the song or which album it was on.
A week later it came in the mail, and at the end of song nr 5 I knew it was the right one and it changed my life forever!
"18 & life" - Skid Row
Written by: Rachel Bolan Southworth and Michael Sabo David
From the album "Skid Row" - 1989

Ricky was a young boy
He had a heart of stone
Lived 9 to 5 and he worked
His fingers to the bone
Just barely out of school
He came from the edge of town
Fought like a switchblade
So no one could take him down, oh no
He had no money
No, no good at home
He walked the streets a soldier
And he fought the world alone and now it's
18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time and it's
18 and life to go
18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time
And it's 18 and life to go
Tequila in his heartbeat
His veins full of gasoline
He kept his motor running
But it never kept him clean
They say he loved adventure
Ricky's the wild one
He married trouble
And had a courtship with a gun
Bang-bang shoot 'em up
The party never ends
You can't think of dying
When the bottle's your best friend and now it's
18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time and it's
18 and life to go
18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time
And it's 18 and life to go, ye-yeah
Accidents will happen?
They all heard Ricky say
He fired his six-shot to the wind
That child blew a child away, ye-yeah
18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time and it's
18 and life to go
18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time
And it's 18 and life to go

@@user-mq5dr1jh5t I think they'd like that, as it is Bach's attitude and superiority complex that got him kicked out of the band and why they refuse to take him back.
Totally on par with Sebastian Bach! and the guitars too! bravo!
Everything Tommy touches is just golden. He took an already popular song and breathed new life, new fire into it. Excellent job Tommy , another phenomenal hit

Not an easy song to sing by any stretch of the imagination. Absolutely awesome.
This is so Damn Crazy, He Just does this song with no problem at all. I am sitting here with my mind Blown. What the Hell!!!
Damn ... When he hit those high notes, I was smiling from ear to ear and crying from joy at the same time. I've always loved this song and this cover blew me away (no pun intended) Now I'll be going down the rabbit hole of watching other videos from Tommy!
The best 18 & life cover of all time... Congratulation from Italy guy!
Tremendous interpretation of a classic from that Band. Congratulations on your talent boy.
by far the most talented member in Sabaton

A song from 1989.Let's be honest, this song is never gonna get old. Amazing Tommy !
On top of the boat load of talent that is Tommy Johansson he is a genuinely nice person. So refreshing in this age of over hyped low talent individuals who are more interested in their look and stage name than real music.
This video is why I subscribed 🔥🖤🔥

Great cover, I still remember seeing Tommy live before the Sabaton concert in Omsk in 2020. He was alone, without protection, and just walked around the city. My friend and I approached him and without any problems or refusals we took a picture with him. The most important thing in Tommy is charisma, he just exudes it in all directions and being with him is very cool and pleasant.

Come on, Tommy... why do you choose the songs that go straight to my teenage heart and make me cry??? I feel like 16 again. God damn it. You make me cry AGAIN! Love everything you do man, you're the best ❤❤❤
And just like that, Tommy transports us all back to the late 80's and High School...... When we first heard Sebastian Bach screaming out these notes, we were completely BLOWN AWAY by the sheer force and power of his vocals. I can honestly say, having heard this song for nearly 35 years now, Tommy's version is SO MUCH MORE POWERFUL than the original. He shows such love, admiration, and respect to the original it's palpable. The guitar tones, the emotion, the atmosphere...... it's ALL THERE!!! Thanks for making this near 50 year old 15 year old feel like a high school headbanger again! Well done, Maestro! Well done indeed!
Damn bro you gave me the chills That was awesome
I can be having a the worst day and i listen too tommy all my sadness just melt awat only tommy can di that

Back in 1989, I was let's say fresh in \m/ Metal \m/. 15 years old. It started with Helloween as I was 14, one year later this masterpiece came out. And from the first tone it blasted me away. The power of this song catched me and now, 33 years later, it still catches me. Your version is great, it stands the comparision with the original.

You blew this one out the stadium. Instant Homerun and its a great rendition of this 80s classic. I still rank Skid Rows debut album as one of the best debut albums ever in the hard rock genre. Did you know that Gary Moore sold the rights to use his old bands name to the band most people know as Skid Row? Have a great Friday and weekend Tommy and everyone else reading this. 🚀
