Thank you sir for your kind words! I appreciate it. Just to clarify I’m cured and healthy since 2021. I left the band in order to stay that way 😎

Boss 🤘😎🤘

[@gustavlantz7937]

Tjena Erik! Gott att höra om din förbättrade hälsa och att du tar hand om dig...❤... Jag har en toppen-ide som jag tänkte att du skulle gå igång på och lösa lite snyggt ...😆... Jag bor i Uppsala och ska se Yngve på Parksnäckan i sommar ...och jag tycker att det är ytterst lämpligt att du tar ett snack rockstjärnor emellan med honom och helt enkelt sjunger några dängor med honom....🥳 Om han är snål med gage så bjuder jag på mat och dryck...🤗 Du är grym, ha det bäst... Gustav

[@poisonlizardx]

Otrolig 👌👏🥳

[@TRcommander]

Get well 👊

[@traceymunn3022]

I nearly had a heart attack listening to Erik sing this. It touched me deep down in my soul.

[@TheBURBAN111]

Been watching eric for ever his voice has just got better and better.

[@starburstppl]

Eric's vocals are insane and when I hear him I get goosebumps. His talent is definitely through the roof! 🤘🏼

[@olagsanger7436]

High pitch without being girly. A man to respect.

[@LikaHartzenberg-rh3vd]

I forget to breath when i listens to his voice...

[@deborahdennehy9937]

I adore the saxaphone, but sadly I've never played it. Erik is just one in a million singing the most beautiful song ever from Whitney. Also a pianist, the icing on the cake!! F A B U L O U S!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@deniseduncan7363]

Thanks Jamie!!! Erik is so deserving of recognition. Ken, he stepped down from Skid Row due to a weakened immune system after chemo and he was getting too sick to continue touring. He has done a few collabs that are amazing too. Notably Carrolus Res (Sabaton cover) with Tommy Johansson and H.E.A.T cover (He was lead singer for them for I believe 10 years) of Breaking the Silence with Dan Vasc. He's a super "nice guy" as well.❤🎼🎵🤘

[@sherylmassey7454]

Wow, I loved that , well done Erik….all the best while going through that nasty chemo…❤️🇦🇺❤️

[@auntiethetical]

Interesting. I was just thinking that his set-up looked a lot like Vasc’s garage studio.

[@troydvorak4011]

I am so happy that a vocal coach is reacting to @ErikGrönwall. He deserves singing accolades and 100% respect for being a genuinely good human!! His personal strength through his journey so far is inspiring (to say the least). I wish more people were aware of the talents in Europe (Erik, Nils Molin, Steve Lee...RIP, Eugent Bushpepa, Dino Jelusick, just for a few examples). Then there are people like Girish Pradhan (India), Ronnie Romero (Chile), and Dan Vasc (Brasil). Maybe Elizabeth Z @TheCharismaticVoice would weigh in on some of these remarkable talents too?

[@hazelzworld]

Dino is fantastic!!!🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽

[@troydvorak4011]

@@hazelzworld Amazing awesomeness! And he plays everything. He's a one man band. There are very few who can do what he does at such a high level. He's not Prince (sorry....lol) but he's a rock god!

[@CrueHead18]

So sad he left Skid Row. He gave life to that band. He is amazing. There should be bands lining up to get him.

[@KevinPerry-wi5dw]

That's not his focus right now..his health is why he left skid row. The touring was messing him up since he was still on medication for cancer

[@belladonna_scarlet]

Eric is a fantastic singer, equally skilled in metal and rock. I discovered him in "Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert" (with John Legend, Sara Bareilles, Brandon Victor Dixon (amazing as Judas), and Alice Cooper). I'm glad you've discovered him too-great review as always!

[@dorothyrosenberg1301]

Eric is thoroughly incredible! His vocals are amazing: powerful & controlled. He KNOWS his instrument. His life inspires almost as much as his music. Thank you

[@cpersable]

Erik actually did an amazing Rock Star-like journey. One of his first appearences was auditioning to Swedish Idol, doin a Skid Row-song. Then, years later, he was offered to actually take the place as new lead singer for Skid Row and go and tour with his childhood idols

[@Pilutta100]

He's amazing. Won Swedish idol in2009 I think it was and me and my sis were blown away. Good metal voices aren't common in a tv talent show.

[@claudiakrieglsteiner6888]

Eric and Tommy are fantastic together with covering carolus rex 🔥

[@donnamason938]

Wish I could give him a million thumbs up. His voice is incredible.

[@Dawn54811]

Eric’s voice is amazing. Thanks for sharing your reaction.

[@darlenefragale6550]

I absolutely loved the sax solo! Added so much feeling to the whole video!

[@barbbaldwin9451]

His Iron Maiden covers are outstanding! ❤❤❤

[@Bonovin]

Thank you! Erik rocks. so to speak. Greetings from Sweden

[@pamdehlin7088]

First time hearing him. Amazing voice!

[@janetnolan197]

Erik has a awesome sound. Check out him and Dan Vasc doing breaking the silence.

[@susansouthard]

I’ll have to look at that! Thanks! Watching this I thought “ has he been watching Dan Vasc,? Because of his background. I’ll go look.

[@susansouthard]

Great cover, Dan and Erik!

[@ivanalaff5346]

I have never heard this man sing…and Sing he can! Thank you…

[@shellybean9]

Erik is one of my favorite singers right now and he is so hunble and genuine. He is using his god given talents to make stellar performances like this. His cover of Dio's rRinbow in the Dark is awesome too.

[@Happy_tails_and_trails]

I love that people are getting on the Erik Gronwell bandwagon. He won Idol (Sweden) 2009. Check that out….

[@ingmariohman8242]

I would love to hear you react to Erik and Tommy's cover of Sabaton Carolus Rex.

[@swedething]

Wow, you found Erik at last! I loved Whitney back in the day, she was the GOAT, and I get goosebumps hearing Erik singing this song.

[@A.Prahl.]

Please react to one of him singing rock/metal . He's so good that KISS sent him a video telling him how good he is. When he was in swedish idol

[@maryannehouston9958]

My sister JUST sent me this video of him last week and I subscribed immediately! He is wonderful!

[@malinandersson9653]

Thank you for this ❤ over here in Sweden we love Eric and Tommy J..❤

[@Luana6350]

Thanks for the great video👍Erik is fantastic❣I first heard him with Tommy Johansson - Erik is such a great talent too👌

[@jamesp7709]

I have been waiting for you to find Erik! Best kept secret on KZbin! He does everything from Mariah Carey and Journey to Judas Priest and Black Sabbath. I think you will love some of his other covers as well.

[@janettetippetts7942]

So sweet and powerful that it almost makes me cry... Thanks Ken!

[@Jok3rOfDarkn3ss]

check out Dan Vasc and him singing Breaking The Silence H.E.A.T cover since Erik was the singer on the original song

[@mariebondesson4390]

AMAZING!! 🇸🇪 Bra Jobbat Erik! The most Powerful Version Ever!

[@hidudidu]

Ken, please! do his Chandelier cover!! It's so good and should have more views/reactions. pretty please?? :) You might also want to check out his collaboration with Tommy Johansson for "Carolus Rex" ... :)

[@annhelensjostrom9065]

So proud of our Erik ❤️

[@pereriksson606]

Yes this cover is awesome but i recommend you to listen to Eriks first cover on the Chanel, the cover of Black Sabbaths Headless cross

[@Rix.67]

Awsome cover🇸🇪

[@annezzell6792]

Another thoughtful, insightful, but still fun reaction! Thank you!

[@taylor430p]

Best ever! Have always loved this song and this is phenomenal. Heard him first singing with Dan Vasc and have been exploring his solo catalog ever since. ❤

[@HappyKat9]

Love Eric, such a beautiful voice! Btw have u reacted to Gigi De Lana? I thought u did but can't find any on ur channel. Everyone's reacting to her. She & her band Gigi Vibes are from the Philippines. They started livestreaming from a garage 2-3 yrs ago (broke, jobless, & depressed during the lockdowns), taking song requests. Fast forward to 2024, they now have 2.12 Million subs on YT. They have a gazillion videos but u can start with THROUGH THE FIRE (Chaka Khan), FLY ME TO THE MOON, BETTER DAYS (Diane Reeves) & ALL I ASK (Adele). She can do any genre from pop to jazz to rock.

[@deborahcutler7510]

As you have found, Erik is an amazing singer, he records in his own home studio, & has an amazing bond with the musicians he works with. Check out his KZbin channel.

[@Godemanstudio]

Do another Erik Grönwall. Some harder perhaps? Yngwie ha does good as hell!!!!

[@ingvartorma9789]

Erik Grönwall won Swedish Idol 2009. If I'm not mistaken, Erik is the brother-in-law of Tommy Johansson (former Sabaton guitarist). Unknown donor saved singer Erik Grönwall's life. Today he is a celebrated singer in the American rock band Skid Row. Two years ago, the situation was different. When former Idol winner Erik Grönwall suffered from leukemia, only a stem cell transplant from an unknown person could save him. 8 Jan. 2024

[@judynewey7798]

This was fabulous, have played it lots of times since I first heard it. I hope things go well for Erik...you,re a wonderful entertainer. Good luck mate

[@tinanna666]

Love the reaction. Happy that Eric is helthy. The only neg - the background and setup - a bit to much Dan Vasc ”garage studio”.

[@jamiem4941]

Thank you Ken! I know Skid Row but didn’t single out Erik but thought he was good. When I found his solo channel I was elated. He is so good. He won the Swedish Idol in 2009 as a young pop singer and his audition videos are so good. Hope to watch more of him with you! Thank you

[@jbentz1966]

Wow.

[@sannaschoblom8547]

Off topic.. It would be fantastic to hear you react to the 2024 eurovision winner Nemo (live performance), especially since they swap between genres and singing styles within the same song. Thanks for great reactions. Peace and love. ❤️

[@PatPrice-fn4ws]

Erik is also a talented singer I first heard him when sang with Dan Vasc Erik has lots on You tube now. He has his former group HEAT too. Erik is going far.

[@user-ij4uj2vg9u]

I LOVE this. He is awesome! Loved your reactions to this. Thanks!! ❤

[@azurenojito2251]

Wonderful! You discovered Erik at last. :)

Erik does a cover of Mariah Carey`s "Without you"......He does it so well!!! Go in and take a look. PLEASE😋

Thank you for an inspirinig reaction! Check Erik out. He is amazing and he has loads of covers to react to☀️

Incredible voice. Great reaction as always Ken.

[@mlincoln1]

great reaction. first time i have heard erik singing alone. introduced to him through several collabs with dan vasc. to my ears he has the perfect amount of seemingly natural grit to his voice. this song suits his voice.

[@mlincoln1]

@@AitchBee01 forgot faithfully was a mashup. mae culpa

[@TroffePalle]

Correction he is not doing chemo but he has stepped down because poor imune system after the treatment. He kept getting sick on tour. Of my understanding he is free from leukemia. But suffers the side effects of treatment.

[@user-dh3pb3xd9p]

I love Erik's version of Dolly's song. And sorry Ken I love the sax. Erik sings it closer to Whitney's version than Dolly's but Dolly wrote this great song. Erik's singing this has given me the same joy as when I first discovered Dan Vasc singing Amazing Grace. So glad I have discovered both of these young men. ❤ from a 🇨🇦 Grammy

[@Lady_Eye_Doc]

Erik sings with Dan Vasc, a song called Breaking the Silence. It was a HEAT cover and Erik was the lead Singer for HEAT. It is a really fun song to watch them sing because they both look like they’re having a lot of fun doing it.

[@jrnweissert6020]

you should listen to Chandelier, Without you and Dream on too :)

[@user-uc5gf3vs2g]

Erik`s Maria Carey cover is so Good!!!!!!! PLEASE react to it!!!!!

[@Gergei-xi1bs]

Please listen to,, where does Motherland beginning "by Diana Ankudinova

Congratulations, Ken! 4 comments and 2 of them are spammer buttbots. Your channel has truly arrived.

Thanks for 12:02 the great reaction, Kevin!! Eric has an incredible voice! This gives me goose bumps on top of goose bumps on top of more goose bumps❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@IvanaMedovka]

Erik won Swedish Idol in 2009 where he auditioned with Skid Row's 18 & Life (it'll be relevant later) and won with original song Higher. After winning the Idol he released two solo albums. In 2010 he joined Swedish rock band H.e.a.t where he replaced their original singer and performed on Adress the Nation (2012), Tearing Down The Walls (2014), Into the Great Unknown (2017) and H.e.a.t II (2020). Worth mentioning is that in 2018 he played Simon Zealotes in Jesus Christ Superstar. In 2020 he left the band to focus on other stuff. He joined his buddy & former bandmate Jona Tee, keyboardist in H.e.a.t, in New Horizon. In 2021, he was diagnosed with leukemia. During the treatments he started his KZbin channel because he promised to himself if he gets out of the hospital alive he'll sing for the rest of his life. He won the battle with that shit and he sings until this day. New Horizon released a debut album Gate of Gods in 2022 and on the same year, only couple of months after his treatment, he joined Skid Row as their new singer. And Skid Row was and is one of his favorite bands. He released an album with them called The Gang's All Here and played a lot of shows with them. All the while he kept releasing covers with many awesome badass musicians. In 2023, he released Eriksplanations Vol. 1 vinyl with some of his covers released until then. As for 2024 - his busy schedule made him unable to record new New Horizon so Jona teamed up with Nils Molin to bring it to life and Erik left the band. He also left Skid Row in March because he wasn't able to balance his full recovery and being in Skid Row. There's his sentence that stuck with me - "Always remember that no job, no money, no fame is worth your health and well-being. Health first. Always." He has autobiography on the way in September (only in Swedish, for now) called Power. Beside music, he enjoys martial arts & books. Covers - Without You (Marriah Carrey), Chandelier (Sia), Listen To Your Heart (Roxette - acoustic), To Be With You (Mr. Big - axoustic), Alone (Heart) feat. Chez Kane, Take On Me (a-ha), Faithfully (Journey), Seperate Ways (Journey), Dream On (Aerosmith), The Trooper (Iron Maiden), Run To The Hills (Iron Maiden), Livin' On A Prayer (Bon Jovi), Always (Bon Jovi), Painkiller (Judas Priest), Carolus Rex (Sabaton) feat. Tommy Johansson, 18 & Life (Skid Row)... Welcome to the Erik's world, nice to have you here ❤

[@SL-du7xs]

Great reaction Ken! Excellent performance by Eric! I have to admit though that I am confused about something Ken. A year ago you reacted to Lucy Thomas singing "HALLELUJAH". Do you remember? Lucy got to you. You were blown away by the power of the then 16 year old Lucy. Your reaction to Lucy's performance was one of my all time favorite Lucy reactions! But surprisingly you have never reacted to another one of Lucy's performances. Lucy Thomas has just turned 20 and has produced 5 albums since she was 14. I firmly believe that Lucy has the best voice in the world. Please play and react to Lucy singing "ALL BY MYSELF". At age 18, Lucy performs this better than Celine Dion. Link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aoqUhZuCesqtr9U Lucy's voice is so powerful! I promise you will be blown away! Enjoy, Hopelessly Addicted in Arizona

[@elissahunt]

I love saxophone, but I'm not going to slap you. 😆 (My hubby is a professional "reed man" and I'm a hobbyist.) Good saxophones are great, and bad ones are... well, bad. Much like vocalists in that regard. But Erik is definitely in the category of "knock your socks across the room."

[@ordoveritas]

Dolly is amazing

[@harleyadam4813]

Waking up after a 2-day bender? YOU SAVAGE!!!

[@user-ii1ke9ex4u]

Highly recommend カラス - うぴ子【MV】CROW - UPIKO

[@ProgMetalGolfer]

If you curious on more from Erik why not watch his audition for Swedish Idol some 15 years ago or so. He was great already then but I guess you could say he's come a long way 🙂 Not sure if this one has got subs but Andreas Carlsson (one of the jury members and great song writer who has written some of Paul Stanley's songs among others) says he would give up an arm to have Erik's voice 🙂 Quite interesting that he auditioned with a Skidrow song and a decade and a half later he is their lead singer. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5zbZoeLaZ10aLc

[@tonyandersson7417]

KEN - How is it even possible that this is your first time hearing Erik⁉🤭 anyway... Now you have another amazing Dan Vasc journey ahead of you! And to ensure that the bar stays at this height, you should REALLY start with HEADLESS CROSS : kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6e3gKeAod6dbJYsi=hqFc31HT9shLip16

[@ozzy321able]

Better than the original

[@bobbistanton1937]

Eric sang with Dan Vasc on "Breaking the Silence" and performed as Simon Zealotes in John Legend's Jesus Christ Superstar on TV.

[@corvettedm1]

Im embarrassed! I asked him if he would consider bringing that voice to Broadway. He KINDLY replied that he had actually played Simon in Jesus Christ Superstar with John Legend. I should have looked first!

[@Jullejr]

And this kid ha cancer a year ago!!!

[@ghostpanic]

IMO he's a good singer, but no Tommy Johansson

[@noggie3934]

I was loving your reaction until you disk the saxophone solo. I decided to move on. Good luck with your channel.
