COTTON EYE JOE (Rednex) - Tommy J

[@zmzgaming]

I'm a Texas native, and we dance to this every Fall. Never expected one of my favorite musicians to perform it. :)

[@nickmelaragno]

And ironically Rednex are also Swedish

[@ullis5125]

Its a swedish band who perform that song… Rednex are from Sweden 😂

[@henkar2326]

He is coming to us so lucky for u guys😊

[@DisgruntledDoomer]

"Never expected"? Why? Unless you are talking about someone else than the author of this video...

[@PonyBoy1776]

Fellow Texan here, blasting this fire around town right now!

[@MattiAntsuK]

Original Cotton Eye Joe by Sweden. Sang by a newer generation Swede, but with more Rock. 100/10.

[@EpikPandik]

im from sweden :3

He nailed it!

[@butterieflie]

Growing up in the Deep South of the United States, this version cracked me up. It’s great! It is a staple for every small town party.

[@donwel8706]

It was really popular in the UK at the time as well. It's a catchy tune.

[@mrpurk3085]

[@DriftlessWarrior]

Tommy's facial expressions are hilarious! Especially his "sad puppy dog" face at the end. Also literally LOLed at "I don't know how to play the violin." Thanks for another awesome and fun Friday morning, Tommy!

[@Adam0002]

My favv part is when he reacts to the double bass kicking in, like what the hell, no!? and then just goes with it :D

[@DawidC.909]

I hope it is not reaction for my comment under his "Take me home country roads"

[@alexanderkupke920]

Also the look on his face at the banjo part. Like "Not sure what I am actually doing here..."

[@lisaeo37]

Tommy, Tommy, du är obetalbar 🤪 Vilken galet rolig video 😂 Du är verkligen ett geni och du får mig alltid på gott humör 😎 Du är så otroligt skicklig ALLA KATEGORIER👍👍 Verkligen en internationell guldskatt 🥰👍🎤🎸🎶🤘 TACK TOMMY 🙏🇸🇪

[@laurenk1766]

For some reason, the white socks made me giggle. Also, I’m sure Tommy could master playing the violin (or fiddle) in no time. He can play everything else! ❤

[@farmfamily9197]

I agree! I would love to hear Tommy do The Devil Went Down to Georgia 👿

[@InnaBregvadze-xt9ox]

Tommy is quite possibly the most ridiculously talented musician of our time, he is the essence of creativity and musicianship. So inspiring.

[@ghostpanic]

It is ridiculous how 1 person can flex his vocal skills like Tommy does! he do any song and with his instrumental talent too! He's just amazing! how he isn't a world wide sensation I don't know?!!

Hes frigging amazing, nothing he can’t do, he’s the whole package, that hair is stunning, so jealous. Love himn❤

[@rebeccaj8743]

Whoa. What is happening? Country metal, wow. Brings back memories of dancing to Cotton Eye Joe in the honky tonks of Texas (USA). Never heard the bands play the song this way but I like it! 👍😊 Awesome.

[@PeterOtmar]

Amazing, I stumbled upon Tommy J by accident and absolutely love it. He should replace all the current "talents" in the mainstream media.

[@tiinakari4055]

Tommy is a genius in music, acting and dont know what. But also he is so FUNNY. I watch and listen him every day and so I am not feeling so lonely. Thank you, Tommy 😂 grandma from Finland ❤

[@DriftlessWarrior]

Even though I don't know you and I've never met Tommy, it warmed my heart this morning to read about one human being bringing joy to another. Have a wonderful day!

[@Upironetopyr]

Hmm, why not warm your hearts little bit more, people. This cover kzbin.info/www/bejne/g4nUgpKegK6sisUsi=OZtUNjHBsSA35I7q popped up in my feed last friday early morning out of nowhere, never heard the song before, but that Grandma and her little companion totally got me with the love and simplicity of their performance. There is comment under one of her covers when youtube recommended this to you, you are very good person.

[@DriftlessWarrior]

@@Upironetopyr Heart is not just warmed, but melted. Tommy ought to collab with her. And the dog. And the background-vocalling cat. 😍😍😍

[@Theodax1]

You know it's gonna be a good morning when Tommy releases a new cover video. I had pretty good expectations for this one, seeing as how Cotton-eyed Joe is already a pretty fast jamming little ditty. What I was NOT prepared for, but hysterically happily surprised by, was just how FUNNY he made this video. Now that Tommy has left Sabaton to pursue other musical adventures, he obviously has plenty more time to 'play with himself (selves.....) so yes, it's GREAT FRI-YAY with this hilariously infectious and addictive 'Tommyfied' and 'Johanssonized' version of Cotton-Eyed Joe . Now, excuse we while I go play this one about 50 more times...... Where did you come from? Where did you go?!?!?!?

[@xScooterAZx]

This is such an old old folk song. Fiddlin' John Carson recorded the earliest known version of "Cotton-Eyed Joe" in 1927. The song's history dates back to the pre-war South, but it became a country standard and has been recorded by many artists over the years. And now it's done by Tommy! So much fun in his version.

[@joanthomastheorbmagnet9855]

Hi again Tommy, I just looked up the original. If this was a cover then I had a feeling that it was because I sort of remember it. So I found out it is a swedish song originally and it's country. There's banjo there's techno there's pup. I just watched the video from 1994. That was the time I was a dancer in Las Vegas. It is brilliant. The music is brilliant. The lead singer is brilliant. That girl with those eyes on that black hair is brilliant as is her choice of clothing and physique. I actually for 90s video. Couldn't take my eyes off of it. Love the version and I want to hear more from them and your version. You go to a vocal range that makes me leave my body. You are astounding to me Superman of the music world. I love you. Don't ever stop and don't ever leave us❤❤❤

[@Elena_Oraevsky]

Tommy, thank you!!! It's so nice that you fulfilled our request. You are the best. I'm sure it will be fun. You are a real treasure.😁❣👍

Been very close friends with and employee for Anders for the last 6 years. My first instinct was to instantly send this to him. Then it hit me again... He would have absolutely loved this as he was a metalhead to the core.
