With this voice he could sing anywhere and whatever he wants, he might even sing the Phone book and it would be awesome anyway... He could fit really well in whatever band, I just discovered him yesterday (better late than ever) and he's really mind blowing

there are a few guys on this planet that can do freddie justice, this chap is very good ,

[@ukchris64]

Tommy is very good that is for sure but Rami Malek did an awesome job of playing Freddie in Bohemian Rhapsody, and singing like him too, brilliant movie if you have never seen it.

[@VALxTheEpicGamer]

@@ukchris64 Rami Malek is NOT a singer.. he is an actor.... when actors are in character they can play and sound like anyone... if you compare Tommy's vocal range to Freddie's vocal range you will realize how close they are.... i firmly believe Freddie Mercury is by far the BEST male singer we've had over the past 100 years... and the closest thing we've gotten since Freddie is Tommy Johansson... the problem is Tommy is an unfortunate SECRET... he is not very well known... if Tommy's songs were played on American radio/TV, his popularity would explode

[@ukchris64]

You are quite right, only found out last night who the singer was actualy doing the singing, a guy called Mac Martel, either way not knocking Tommy at all, in fact Ido like Tommy's stuff quite a lot.
