    Who's that screaming ballon at e.g. 2:52 and onwards who sings completely out of tune with our genius?? Is it a joke from the one who made the video? incredible.

    Dustin hatzenbuehler's version is, i think, even better although I do believe this version is excellent.b

    Prettiest.. this voice make me remember all what I see in my life.

    Frågan kom upp; vad är svensk kultur. Jag reflekterade en sekund och sade; Jussi Björling..och detta.

    No man, no madness

    Though their sad power may prevail

    Can possess, conquer, my country's heart

    They rise to fail

    She is eternal

    Long before nations' lines were drawn

    When no flags flew, when no armies stood

    My land was born

    And you ask me why I love her

    Through wars, death and despair

    She is the constant, we who don't care

    And you wonder will I leave her — but how?

    I cross over borders but I'm still there now

    How can I leave her?

    Where would I start?

    Let man's petty nations tear themselves apart

    My land's only borders lie around my heart

    Ja jävlar Tommy Köris i sitt esse! Mäktigt

    Amazing voice I'm new to this great singer where have I been

    Vilken fantastisk sångröst du har Tommy Körberg. Du är bäst. 🌹💙🌹

    When it comes to this song. There is nothing else like Tommy Korberg. With no disrespect to the other Artists with singing this song. There can be only one person to sing this song. That is Tommy Korberg.

    Anthem is, imo, one of the best pieces of musical work ever created. It is a perfect build of vocals, instruments, tempo and production. It is a tricky song that a good singer can do amazing things with. I've heard all the others, from Bell to Groban to Ramin to others, and they all do amazing with the song.

    But this is Tommy's baby. This is his bag. Same with Murray Head doing Heaven on Their Minds or Odem doing Wait for It. It's their song. Everyone else just covers it.

    Wondeful song powerful voice,goosebumps when you hear this song in his version.

    I saw the musical in London in 1986 with Tommy Körberg. Amazing experience I still remember clearly and will never forget. Did you know he started his singing career in a group called Maniacs? They wbded up with two lead singers Tommy and Mickael Johansson, who formed Tom&Mick&Maniacs but to most they were referred to as Tom and Mick. Both great singers. Dont know why they split up or what happened to Mick.
    Here is Tom and Mick in "Somebody's taking Maria away"

    Dejlige "Tommy Sjøberg".👏👏😍😍

    Stunningly beautiful. I wish I could put a reaction of this on my own channel, it is the best of the past few decades' stage musicals.

    This is simply brilliant. I love the end where he goes in with all his passion and power.

    Whish I'd discovered him earlier and got the chance to see him live in his prime.

    To a certain extent, I think his voice have gained power and depth with the years.

    A Fantastic Singer. ❤️So match potential…

    Leets keep sharing this amazing video, this is music history!

    Loved this when I first heard it in 1984. Many have sung it since but Tommy is the best, the depth, tone and emotion just amazing! ❣️

    The boy is a true Swedish power house, viking power!

    Tom makes me proud to be a Swede, what a singer!🌹
    Also Chess♟ is such a great musical, not solely about chess but also about the cold war!

    Listen to Didrik SollieTangens version….. please….
