----------------------------asquerade, masquerade,
Grab your mask and don't be late
(Get out get out)
Well disguised heat and fever in the air tonight
Meet the others at the store,
Knock on other people's door
Trick or treat they have the choice
Little ghost's are makin'lotsa noise
But watch, out beware
Listen, take care
In the streets on Halloween
There's something going on
No way to escape the power unknown
In the streets on Halloween
The spirits will arise
Make your choice, it's hell or paradise
Ah it's Halloween
Ah it's tonight
Someone's sitting in a field,
Never giving yield
Sitting there with gleaming eyes
Waiting for big pumpkin to arise
Bad luck if you get a stone
Like the good old Charlie Brown
You think Linus could be right
The kids will say it's just a stupid lie
But watch out, beware
Listen, take care
In the streets on Halloween
There's something going on
No way to escape the power unknown
In the streets on Halloween
The spirits will arise
Make your choice, it's hell or paradise
Ah it's Halloween
Ah it's Halloween tonight
Listen now we are calling you
Listen now we are calling you
Listen now we are calling you
Listen (tonight) we are calling you
And there's magic in the air
Magic in the air
Magic in the air
Magic in the air on Halloween
Black is the night full of fright
You'll be missing the day
Watch will be here very soon changing your way
A knock at your door
Is it real or is it a dream
On trembling legs you open the door
And you scream on Halloween
On Halloween
I am the one, doom 's in my hands
Now make your choice,
Redeemed or enslaved
I'll show you passion and glory?
He is the snake
I'll give you power and abundance
He's the corrupter of man
Save me from the evil one
Give me strength to carry on
I will fight for all mankind's
Deliverance and peace of mind
But watch out, beware
Listen, take care
In the streets on Halloween
There's something going on
No way to escape the power unknown
In the streets on Halloween
The spirits will arise
Make your choice, it's hell or paradise
Ah it's Halloween
Ah it's Halloween
Ah it's Halloween
Ah it's Halloween
Oh yeah, it's Halloween
Yeah it's Halloween
Yeah it's Halloween
Yeah it's Halloween tonight

This song does nothing other than demonstrate how great Michael Kiske is. A voice that transcends generations. It is incredible that this song has turned 36 years old and is still as relevant as ever. Great job Tommy, the pumpkins will be proud.

[@ReinXeed]

Thank you!! ☺️🙏

[@TRANQUILLITYsweden]

It's also strange that I was 20 when this came out and now the song is 36 years old, but I'm probably 30-40 something?............ How strange isn't that 🙂

[@Theodax1]

It's another FRIYAY!!! Which means we get yet another amazing 'Tommyfied' and 'Johanssonized' cover version of one of our favorite classic tunes. The mere fact that he chose to cover the iconic classic Halloween, from the legendary Helloween, is just a love letter to fans of classic 80's era power metal! As per usual, maestro Johansson gives us yet another prime example of just why we love his covers so damn much. As incredible a naturally gifted vocalist and musician as he is, let's not forget the most important fact...... he, like all of us, is a FAN first and foremost!!! This love and passion is palpable and evident in everything he touches. Tommy, from a fellow fan, to another fellow fan...... THANK YOU!!!!!

[@kennedymoran9160]

This video is an epic example of all of your PURE TALENT! Words can't do justice for the power that is in this video. Well done Tommy!! 🎃🤘🎸

[@paulaswaim8434]

Unbelievable! Thank you Tommy!

[@denisespiliotopoulos3884]

Tommy's voice is just exceptional. Going way back to Swedish Hitz Goes Metal, we knew he would be just amazing in any band with his vocal range. 😍❤️

[@corbywestbrook1348]

Trying to imagine……..It’s Sunday evening or whenever. Tommy sits down and starts thinking about songs in his mind. 🤔 Finds one, then begins to make his version. Just like every Friday morning. Once again, it’s such a treat. With Christmas just around the corner. Can’t hardly wait, too hear what you do this season. 🍻 cheers Tommy & thank U

[@dimitriskavadias6360]

F@#$ yeah, man! Absolutely amazing! I am a Helloween fan since 1988 and I can easily say that there is no one who can cover a Helloween song better than you! No one! Period! Me and my buddies here are giving you a so well deserved standing ovation for yet another phenomenal performance! Kai and Michael most definitely need to see this! Man, there is a sheer travesty happening here. An artist of your caliber and talent should have at least 500K subscribers by now and you have 172K! I mean how is that even possible? I'm sure you'll get there, there is no doubt about that, but, maaaan, still!.. Anyways, thank you so very much for this piece of pure magic and gold and have an awesome Weekend! See you on next Friday, bro!.. 😉🤟🤘

Творческий подход к работе. Очень большой вклад в любимую музыку и в своё дело. Благодарю Томми за то,что ты есть ❤

[@luguerino]

I need to make a little confession here. I've never been a big fan of Powermetal, mainly because of the vocal style. Some go out of tune and make the song uncomfortable to listen to. Yet here we have you, Tommy, with your crystal clear, stunning voice making everything come together perfectly. I'm loving every bit of it! Bless you, dear! Thank you for sharing your incredible talent with us. ...and for making Fridays start in a wonderful way 😉🙃

[@AOIXenocide]

Pretty sure Tommy wants to turn all music in to fast Swedish power metal. I personally have NO problem with this.

Tommy made a perfect choice of this masterpiece (as he always does), it can be seen that the interpretation is well thought out and worked. Fantastic! 🤘🏻🎸🔥

[@jarkkokyntaja4073]

I was secretly hoping, that Tommy would do this. And he did ! Best song from Helloween along Keeper, I still remember hearing this for the first time back then. What a ride it was and still is. Nothing beats original and Michael Kiske´s vocals, but Tommy is damn close. And of course, the arrangements are splendid as always. To be honest, there are very few who could or should touch this, Tommy is one of them.

[@SirenBandUS]

Incredible as always. Love how you added some touches to make it your own. This will make for a perfect transition between spooky season and Christmas season. Now to queue up "A Christmas Carol" by Majestica for constant rotation over the next two months.

[@icositetracoronciclosincro5448]

I've been listening to you since the 2000s when I heard Reinxeed, I still listen to it. I follow in your footsteps in Majestica, symphony of tragedy and Sabaton. Greetings from Mexico!

You've always been so fantastically skilled, but you've worked so hard over the years, that every new version somehow manages to even outdo the already amazing previous ones! It's always so exciting to see! 🙂...!!! And I just noticed the "Back to the Future" reference in the VHS-style part at 7:44...You are seriously the coolest person ever!!! 😄)
