Empty spaces, what are we living for?
Abandoned places, I guess we know the score, on and on
Does anybody know what we are looking for?
Another hero, another mindless crime
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime
Hold the line
Does anybody want to take it anymore?
The show must go on
The show must go on, yeah
Inside my heart is breaking
My makeup may be flaking
But my smile, still, stays on
Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance
Another heartache, another failed romance, on and on
Does anybody know what we are living for?
I guess I'm learning
I must be warmer now
I'll soon be turning, round the corner now
Outside the dawn is breaking
But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free
The show must go on
The show must go on
Inside my heart is breaking
My makeup may be flaking
But my smile, still, stays on
My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies
Fairy tales of yesterday, grow but never die
I can fly, my friends
The show must go on
The show must go on
I'll face it with a grin
I'm never giving in
On with the show
I'll top the bill
I'll overkill
I have to find the will to carry on
On with the show
Show
Show must go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on

No way Freddie Mercury would be proud of him. Because Freddie Mercury performed this song way better than him!

[@GoodArtist]

Swedish people generally have musical talent, but Tommy... you're a beast. I love how you kill all of your guitar parts in Sabaton's songs, but your singing is even more impressive. I've checked out some of Majestica songs and they are freaking great. I love "Metal United". Carry on, Tommy. 🤘🎸🎤❤️

[@jimmybobs87]

Id say a lot of people have music talent. I know some Swedish and they have zero musical talent 😂However, the talent that does come out of Sweden seems to be second to none!

[@QTSweetFX]

You are mixing up cringe and talent and this generation mixes up both all the time. This is awful sound like something really bad from Eurovision

[@tommylarsson2025]

That Sweden produce a lot of artists that have an audience isn't the same that we have more talents than other countries. We have smart businessmen and a music industry that knows how to feed the kids with music that hooked them up quick. That has lowered the real quality in my opinion. It's professional and well produced but that's it. Doesn't last and are more like fast food. This guy has skills since from my knowledge he play all the instrument himself and create the arrangement and so on. Don't compare him with eurovision where someone else has created the music for the artist most of the time. This guy is awesome and compare to many other he has great knowledge about music.

[@jamesdellaneve9005]

It can’t be a copy and the singer needs to own his/her own style while executing it. Tommy adds his arrangement skills as well.

That voice (and also the optics) - where did you hide - or was I deaf and blind? Then I'm healed now. 🎶

[@zarahmb1711]

For me, the song will always be deep in my soul, because everyone knew when it was released that it was his farewell to this world. It was my freshman semester, I had Queen live at the top of my bucket list, now being an "adult". My first day at university was the day he passed away, I will never forget this. It's like GM, it still hurts and he's missed dearly.

[@vsemprivet]

1) As a hardcore Freddie fan I thank you for giving new noble life to this song. Extremely well done, it's the best Queen cover I've ever heard. 2) This version was made with utmost care for the original - you can hear it in every note. It's done. But you can and must do your own version - with even more energy and delivery. You can feel you was almost stopping yourself from going totally nuclear, and it would've been bliss. Do it, please!
