I don't know if Tommy ever sees these comments but I'm an older guy dealing with cancer and everything that goes with it. I just got out of the hospital last night but I had a couple of 22 year old nurses and they were the best I had them listen to a couple of your songs and they thought you were awesome they couldn't wait to get home and get their friends to listen to you. You are totally awesome and I make sure I listen to as many songs of your as I can before I go to bed at night.

[@chadharrison9933]

My heart and prayers are with you my friend. I agree, Listening to Tommy sing, especially the old school 80’s, definitely turns a bad day into a good one. Try to stay strong and positive.

[@dlind1985]

Hallelujah! You made them girls listen to this marvelous Tommy, and you touched me with your words. Thank you, Bill Clifford. ❤️

[@dianenewton3953]

Well I'm a 75 year old American woman of Swedish descent. I happened to hear your version of Ave Maria. I was so impressed with your voice and guitar work and I thought "why isn't this guy with a rock group?". Then I did some research and some more listening. Then I told my children (in their 50s) and my grand children (18,19 and 24) all are heavy metal fans about you . Now they are telling people about you and your former bands. And you are in our Facebook. People in the middle of America are learning about you, now.

[@NotAPrincess88]

So awesome of you to spread this music talent to everyone!! You're one bad ass woman ♥

[@stevezentner4161]

My wife told me about this song several months ago. She played me the original and the Bon Jovi version and I thought it's alright. About a week ago I stumbled upon Tommy. I haven't listened to anything since. This is, without question, the best version of this song. God has smiled in great favor on Tommy Johansson 🙏.

Fantastiskt bra. Tills för en månad sedan kände jag till Tommy Johansson bara som Sabatons gitarrist, men nu har jag gjort bot och bättring. Han torde för närvarande vara en av Sveriges absolut mest mångsidiga sångare och musiker inom den hårdare rocken, men är ändå mera mångsidig än så.

MAGNIFIQUE ! Why, why, why don't we hear more about the wonderful Tommy here in France? On the various media here, we too often hear insipid music. In the 80s, Tommy would have been a metal monster and recognised for his true worth! I hope from the bottom of my heart that his channel, Majestica and any other musical work he undertakes will receive the recognition it deserves! In any case, as we say in French : Je lui souhaite tout le bonheur du monde !
