This Romeo is bleeding
But you can't see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up
It's been raining since you left me
Now I'm drowning in the flood
You see, I've always been a fighter
But without you, I give up
I can't sing a love song
Like the way it's meant to be
Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore
But baby, that's just me
And I will love you, baby, always
And I'll be there forever and a day, always
I'll be there 'til the stars don't shine
'Til the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you, always
Now your pictures that you left behind
Are just memories of a different life
Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye
What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair
To touch your lips, to hold you near
When you say your prayers, try to understand
I've made mistakes, I'm just a man
When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
When he says the words you've been needing to hear
I wish I was him
With these words of mine
To say to you 'til the end of time
That I will love you baby, always
And I'll be there forever and a day, always
If you told me to cry for you, I could
If you told me to die for you, I would
Take a look at my face
There's no price I won't pay
To say these words to you
Well, there ain't no luck
In these loaded dice
But baby, if you give me just one more try
We can pack up our old dreams
And our old lives
We'll find a place where the sun still shines
And I will love you, baby, always
And I'll be there forever and a day, always
I'll be there 'til the stars don't shine
'Til the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme
I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you, always
Always, always

Jesus Christ this guy has to be one of the best vocalists out there right now. He absolutely slays every cover he does.

You are way too kind! Thank you.

[@stevenmartin9557]

Bro you are unbelievable! Love you covers you slay them all

[@saradollins5142]

I've only listened to 3 so far, but as far as they are concerned, I agree with Mike. While he's no Steve Perry, he still did a pretty darn good job on "Faithfully." On "Always", he totally nailed it and even sounded just like Jon on most of it, but there were spots where I could tell the difference. Lastly, even thought "Alone" by Heart has two female voices on it, Erik and Chez Kane were awesome! If "Always" is any indication, Erik could probably take Jon's place, but then it wouldn't be Bon Jovi anymore. I'd settle for Erik joining a Bon Jovi tribute band.

[@audiechenery4210]

De and Dan Vasc. They did one together. Check him out. ❣️🎤

[@stephendonahue3609]

He's also incredible live. I went to a Skid Row show in April. They blew the roof off the place. At the end, I was asking, "Sebastien who"?

[@user-dl7kz3ep9j]

Is this 64 yr old woman still allowed to love Bob Jovi music like I do . My kids and grandchildren think I lost my mind recently when they discovered I listen to this

[@lizstarks1955]

Haha, I get that! 67 here but 21 in my mind ❤ they should see me dance!

[@bonitasurges9763]

Age is just a number 😊

[@johnrodrigues5136]

I'm 65 and enjoying this guy.

[@hanslindvall7530]

I am 64 too, Its nice to watch/listening to talents like this ( Erik ), grow up with rock and roll ( Led Zeppelin/Deep Purple etc....beginning of the 70s and punk in the late 70s :)

[@marilynvanderwilp3713]

You are not alone. This 71 yo loves everything about symphonic metal. Especially if they redo songs of the 80's and 90's when they knew how to do music. I'm so glad that there are a few bright spots in this day and age. Our kids don't know what they're missing.

[@johnathanbotterell1926]

......well, I've just found this guy and he is just incredible isn't he. I mean the scale of his voice has knocked a hole clear through my brain. I'm a Gillan and Dickinson chap myself and clearly he will now sit comfortably along side them, in my humble opinion.

[@IsabelRavenscroft-sh2yk]

I agree. One of the best vocalists I've heard. I think you have an incredible voice

[@jbb5909]

If this guy has a concert, i would love to go see him singing in person. His voice is powerful. ❤

[@noelneal2969]

This kid is BADASS!! Everything ive heard him sing is awesome!

[@teresahawker8941]

Erik, my favorite male vocalist...keep singing with that beautiful God given voice

[@maureenkuebler6285]

If he had a solo career he'd have the world by a string. His voice blows me away.

[@arios0312]

Wish rock could resurge again, the 80s and 90s were great eras, with amazing music, but streaming declined sales. Now artists need to tour to make money. This bring a lot of great memories. Erik is pure gold. One of the best singers of this era.

[@Rkbmomma]

Don't forget the 70s-the best R & R bands started in the early 70s

[@darrylberndt4242]

I've never heard a singer sing so many covers that sound better then the original. Just a freak Erik Grönwall

[@hollyhaynes9496]

What How Where have I been not to hear this guy???? I am in awe of this voice.....he can sing anything, and I love how he honors the songs he sings of others...he doesn't try to be cheesy or them he just flat out makes it his own and OWNS IT LIKE IT WAS HIS!!!! Dang Gina!!

[@allisoncampbell1631]

You should hear him live with Skid Row...I saw them with Scorpions in Vegas Last year...He sounded better than Sebastian did 30 years ago

[@patmatt1987]

There’s nothing this dude cannot sing! You are an AMAZING singer!!

[@ingridbee9192]

Every cover, gives me chills. I replay over and over to make sure Im hearing what I am hearing. God bless you with an amazing voice. I'm so grateful I stumble across you❤

[@ashlynb840]

It’s been a very long time since I’ve had chills from hearing that song. Brilliant! I wish Marli (RIP) could have heard you sing her favorite Bon Jovi song. ❤

I'm so sorry for your loss Ashlyn. Sending you all the strength I have!

[@danielpower10]

As Erik once said in the song....heaven must have won an angel....I'm sure of this....all the love, thoughts, prays and strenght for you.....

[@birgitschneiderbek6513]

[@Paul-fq9pj]

Amazing 😢

Looooove this!!!!

[@deettiarodgers6998]

What a magical, kick ass performance. You can sing anything better than the original. You are magnetic. What a God given talent!!!!

[@cyndihowey2257]

I found Erik awhile back & he’s my absolute favorite male vocalist! I can listen to him sing all day long!!

[@naoizu9728]

Eric sings ALWAYS. I was moved and cried. I listen to it repeatedly on sad nights. ☆🌙

[@ClarVad]

I’ve always thought to try and cover a song sung by the legendary Jon Bon Jovi was nearly impossible with his unique voice and range. Young sir, you just blew me away. You have a new fan. Love from Canada!!!🇨🇦

Thank you sir!

[@twisted_sista7329]

SOB, my neighbors are about to call the cops on me for cranking your music up and hats off to a helluva band, let''s not forget them Effing Bravo

Hell yeah! Wake them up! I would be nothing without this amazing band.

[@behshad]

There’s a great chance you might get a call from Bon Jovi management after this! Nailed it.

Ha ha thanks!

[@chrisuk73]

@ Jon should switch to just guitar and try a new singer, lots of bands have. He could keep the cash cow going longer. But he won't.

[@thecaptain4425]

or a supergroup with Ritchie Sambora

[@michaelmiller1215]

Erik, your powerful Tenor just SOARS. (From one Tenor to another).

He sounds like John when he was young!great job. I haven't heard better!

[@ranmatthews2700]

Oh wow. I’m almost speechless. This has been my favourite song of all time, since I first heard it in 1994. I never thought anything could beat it. But this version is INCREDIBLE!! I’m totally blown away by it. Tack så mycket, du är bäst! 💜💜

Wow, stort tack för en fin recension.

[@livingwater7580]

Unfreaking believable there is no words for how amazing this guy is and so b is his band unbelievable

[@melonystilwell925]

I'll be using this cover.. Always at my wedding!🎉

[@alwilson4258]

Eric, I really hope you read all these comments. You are literally turning into a modern day rock God. To perform these covers at this level and to receive this number of huge compliments is testament to your ability. I look forward to watching your career explode, just like the greats before you. Keep up this spectacular work and thank you for entertaining us. It's about time we had a modern day rock God on the scene.... 👏👏

Erik is so amazing, but please check out his fellow country man Tommy :) . We have some talented musician and singers in Sweden :) www.youtube.com/@ReinXeed

AAARRRRGGGHHHH!!! Erik!! Stop it! I’ve said it before and again, you’ve killed, crushed every single time but this…I have no words. I have chills.

Thank you for saying that. Very glad you like it.

This cover is simply beautiful - for real! So great to see you and Jona collaborating, and I am thinking that Jake did the camerawork. You Swedes rock. Thank you!

Thank you Lisa. Jake did indeed do the camerawork. Working with Jona is a privilege for me. He hears everything, he knows when I'm doing my best and when I'm just being lazy... he keeps me on my toes.

Any chance this collaboration happens in Brazil on April 2023???

[@violainedoucet9978]

I'm speechless, what a wonderful interpretation, it's brilliant! You never cease to amaze me! Bon Jovi and Skid Row are 2 of my favorite bands of all time and they have a special place in my heart ❤️ The first concert I attended was Skid Row and Bon Jovi in ​​1989 during the New Jersey tour, unforgettable ! I never believed that someone could replace Sebastian Bach and you succeeded brilliantly 😀 And there this magnificent version of one of my favorite Bon Jovi songs gives me chills ❤

Thank you for saying that Violaine. I'm not here to replace anyone, I just sing what I love to sing and will do the best I can with what I have :) I was inspired by both Bach and Jon when I grew up and spent a lot of hours rehearsing and singing their songs.

[@violainedoucet9978]

@ i also spent hours singing their songs but you don't want to ear me sing lol 🤣Have a Nice day 😃

[@user-sp6oq4rd8w]

Good job!! It shows once again what an awesome voice Jon Bon Jovi has (had). His tone, his feel, his pronunciation are unreachable. Jon ist the number one Rockstar of all times ❤ 95/100 points for you Erik

You have found your destiny in music. You are all fabulous and I am crazy impressed with all the different styles you are so capable of producing. Wow, wow, wow.

Thanks Mari. Yes, working with Jona sure is a privilege! The only thing we missed this time was a couple of beers.

[@leonardotortosa4287]

The most genuine Bon Jovi voice that my ears have ever heard, I thought I had heard interpretations of other singers, but Erik totally and definitely surprised me as Jovi's voice, I hope you continue with that legacy, the rest of the group was phenomenal, congratulations! Greetings from venezuela

Wow Erik! This is absolutely beautiful. It's no secret that Bonjo can´t sing this song the way he used to, but he must be proud of such a talent musician to keep it alive.

I have recently moved to Madrid from Argentina, and can't wait to see you live on a stage. Keep it up!
