Tommy's voice is like the Ocean. With his powerful musical waves 🌊 Tommy, blows you just away.... It remains one amazingly beautiful song! ✨ Tommy can do anything, vocally and with his instruments, he is an all-rounder... Not bad at all, for a guitarist from Sabaton 😎🎸 Every week he treats his fans with a new cover 🥰 Please more TOMMY 🖤🎸🤘

I'm glad you talked about Tommys guitar work here! That skill is sometimes overlooked in reaction videos. Tommys dayjob is being one of two guitarists in Sabaton. So he's primarily a guitarist not a singer. But he excels at everything!

My take on Tommy (as a musician myself) is that he has a unique skill of arranging music - he could, if he wanted to, be a great composer, too!

I really enjoy his covers, he's an amazing musician, not only vocals but also a good guitar player. It always surprises me that Sabaton doesn't let him sing more.

Absolutely 💯 % just a perfect tribute to Freddie Mercury and Queen with just enough to make it his own 👍as u say the red special is a unique instrument with such a iconic sound that like Freddie's vocals is instantly recognisable a truly stunning tribute 👍his cover of his hero Mr Gary Moore's "the loner " is just a master class of playing ability in the way he captures the emotion that the late Mr Moore played with and could convey through his guitar just a stunning instrumental,and one to check out if u haven't already to really hear the red special at its best is " blue on black" by five finger death punch featuring Kenny Wayne shepherd, Brantly Gilbert and the one and only Mr Brian May plus its a stunning tribute to all first responders 👊have a fantastic one my friend stay safe take care all the very best from Scotland to you 👍 👊

Great reaction! About Tommy…Exceptionally talented, can sing, play instruments, fells the music and enjoying every moment of singing, has carisma and is an inspiration.
@marinamucic908 Жыл бұрын
Amazing reaction as always. That's what Tommy always does, make a song his own, without loosing the essence of the original. He has a way of making every cover sound as it was written for him, often upgrading the song, or making a massive justice to the original, like here. I hope you'll check out his cover of Basket Case by Green Day, one of his best covers imo

Nossa, muito obrigada pela sua análise, eu posso dizer que foi perfeita, até agora eu nunca vi um reator falar com tanta precisão e conhecimento de causa. Eu ja vi várias reações a esse vídeo, mas eu não ficava satisfeita embora eu não tenha conhecimento como você ,eu sentia que faltava ser mais elaborada as reações aos covers do Tommy. E finalmente encontrei com você, fiquei muito feliz por isso. Sensacional, agradeço muito.👍👏💯

Where was the gong at the end? Growing up with the original I have to say there was something missing, certain inflections or emotional quality. Freddie made it look soooo effortless.

In my opinion, this is one of Tommy's "misses". Usually, he manages to improve, or at least power-metalize, the song, but in this nothing really is added. Maybe the problem is just in the song selection... what could really be added to perfection?

Tommy is good but do not limit anyone else doing this song. Try Dan Vasc rendition of this song.❤
