YOU RAISE ME UP (1 OCTAVE CHALLANGE) - TOMMY JOHANSSON

As many have requested, here it comes:

It's most for fun, of course. But it really was a challenge and a different touch to one of the most beautiful songs ever written.

He is so amazing, I’m speechless, just love listening to him to him, he has the best Vocal range I’ve ever heard, it doesn’t get any better. ❤ Just a beautiful singer.
I grew up in a very conservative environment, CONSTANTLY hearing "Metal singers can't sing! They are talentless noise makers!"..... Now as an adult, I see a lot of metal singers have stronger voices than most artists in other genres. Well done Tommy!

Been listening to metal/power metal since 2002, and I swear, one thing I've always noticed is that Sweden has the best vocalists. High notes and amazing melody have always been my thing, so this video in particular has been my favorite of yours. Fantastic job.

Holy God! He's got the largest spanning range of any singer that I have ever heard. Puts most 80's singers to rest quick. What a unique voice.
In 2010 I had an emergency liver transplant, it didn't look like I was going to make it, and my parents got ready to say good bye to me. This is the song that was playing when I started to wake up after I had to be in a coma. I don't remember it, but my dad told me. Thanks Tommy for this beautiful rendition, I'm in absolute tears this morning (in a good way!)

Imagine he has been playing GUITAR for years in one of Swedens biggest band, Sabaton. Tommy has 10 times better vocals than their lead singer. Crazyness 😮
I am so totally impressed by Youré vocals! Äsh som svensk är jag totalt imponerad! Bara din vokala stämma är underbar, men det jag gillar är din bredd och att du vågar! Tack, Tommy! För att du låter mig våga utmana min röst!
Outside the original by Secret Garden, I thought Josh Gorban's rendition was number 1. But this rendition has become number 1, for this song.
Holy crap! I was already impressed with him singing in the stratosphere. But then the key change. Wow!!!
Like many of your current followers what I find most intriguing and enjoyable is the clarity of you're voice and diction. I can actually understand what you're singing. Would love to hear you and Dan Vasc do something together. 2 of the best voices I've ever heard together..... stuff dreams are made of. LOVE LOVE LOVE your sense of humour too!!! This was Epic. Have listened 5 times already. Heading for round 6❤
Stunning, amazing, unbelievable.. We could could go on Tommy, but that was simply incredible!

I shared your video with my speech therapist, needless to say she was blown away. She is going to share it with one of her other patients who is trying to get her singing voice back.
Tommy is an amazing vocalist with an incredible range. I also suspect that he's a musical genius. I've listened to his Disney-ton version of Swedish Pagans an embarrassingly amount of times because it's just so damn good.

Heaven is in Tommy's gift.....wow what a gift!
A Great Voice ...indeed...without a shadow of a doubt...!.....👏🤟💪
I'm speechless by that performance. I asked my girlfriend who is quite a good singer she couldn't go nowhere as high as you did at the end haha ! Amazing performance !
Tommy, din röst får mig orka igenom dagarna. Jag blir lika mållös varje gång jag hör din version av You raise me up. Jag tänker då på min mamma som lämnade jorden alldeles för tidigt. Har spelat den här vid hennes grav, jag är övertygad om att hon ler i sin himmel. Ingen röst i världen kan mäta sig med din. Var stolt över din gåva. All kärlek till dig ❤❤❤

You have the perfect 3+ octave range and an amazing tenor voice Tommy! It gives me goose bumps - especially in *Above the Sky* - You totally nailed those high notes here, outstanding. You are my favourite male artist in the last 30 years and playing-wise, since the late and great Gary Moore who would be proud of you! Keep it coming bro! More Majestica, Sabaton solos, and your unique Disney mash-ups. Your latest album is superb, takes me right back to the late 80’s - can’t wait to see you perform live! 👍😜 You are so generous to your fans and we’ll thank you by staying loyal to your projects, whatever they may be - you can’t go wrong. Best Wishes from England! 🇸🇪🇬🇧
