Gary Moore was Tommy's idol When he was younger his dad show him Gary Moore guitar playing. Tommy said he wanted to grow up playing guitar and be just like him. He now owns one of Gary's guitars. Gary would be so proud of Tommy keeping up his legacy.
You get great guitarists and you get great vocalists but it’s so rare to get someone who can do both. Being a lifelong Gary Moore fan Tommy is the man to carry on his legacy.
Moore Tommy! Tommy’s skills and talent are on no other lever that no one can touch and compare to. Hats off to Tommy Johansson! 🔥🎸🔥 Love your reaction! 👏👏👏
No question, Tommy's love affair with Gary Moore's guitar playing and music is to be admired. I can't think of anyone who could carry Gary's torch to the finishing line than Tommy! Thank you for this reaction. Cheers! P.S. Love the lyrics to this song!
It so happened that I first heard this song performed by Nightwish, with Tarja. It was only later that I heard Gary Moore's original. Tommy again managed to make his version, extraordinary, magnificent, however, as always.And an incredible solo! Thanks for the great review.
Excellent reaction. I have always loved this song and the story of love it tells. I hope the lady he gave up his freedom for waits for him. There is also an excellent version of this song with Floor and Tarja singing it together from the 2013 Metal Female Vocalist Festival.
Over the Hills and Far Away was actually the first "Nightwish" song I ever heard, many years ago (with Tarja, of course), that's how I first heard Gary Moore's name. After that I heard the original and then Tommy. I adore Floor, but in this case I love Tommy's and Tarja's version way more. Both Tommy and Nightwish did a magnificent job with their covers
You don't know me but i am a 1 finger musician. The start and stop button. That's my limit. Amazing how there are so many talented people out there and its an absolute pleasure to discover them through utube and the reactors. Thank you. Dave south africa.
Kind of takes your breath away doesn't it? When I first heard it on his channel all I could comment was WOOoooooooooooowwww! This along with "The Light" are my absolute favorites of Tommy's, not sure why it isn't requested more. Thanks for this! ❤
Tonight, I listened to your favorite, and I was stoned! Now I understand! Thank you for asking for this one often - it made my night (and day). 😊🎸💯 I will listen and listen... 👍
As I didn’t listen to Gary Moore a lot when I was young I always listen to Gary after I have heard Tommy’s covers of him. They are equally enjoyable. Astonishing. I have learned so much of Gary through Tommy’s covers. Thanks Arias for this honest, joyful, loving and sincere reaction.
Thanks for your fantastic reaction to fantastic Tommy J.❤❤I very much love Gary Moore's music .By the way, we have birthdays in the same day so...I guess I had no choice anyway!😂
OMG! I need to take a moment to catch my breath. Tommy is a guitar genius! Was this guitar owned by Gary Moore? I think I heard in an interview with Tommy that he bought one that belonged to Gary. I bet this is the one. How beautiful to make it sing again. Once again your reaction to music is wonderful to watch. I love how you really FEEL it!!❤
Et oui, notre Tommy nous transmet au travers de son incroyable talent, son amour pour la musique!!!! EXCEPTIONNEL encore une fois. Toujours un moment de joie et de perfection. Merci pour la réaction…. N’hésitez pas à découvrir ses DISNEYTON : il adapte le texte de chansons (celles de Sabaton) sur des airs de film Disney. Essayez Swedish pagans… une pure merveille. A la prochaine Daniel ! 👏👍🙏🏼❤️🇫🇷
Hi man. I have been listening to your Tommy Johansson reactions all morning while working. I love your style man! I am from Sweden and Tommy is a legend. I have a few recommendations for you dude (if you don't know about them already). First one is Beast in Black - Blind and Frozen, second is Rehn Stillnight - Carry on wayward son, and third is Sarah Brightman - The phantom of the operah. All of them are just simply AMAZING!
What I love about Gary is that he plays longer than others! Expect not 3 minutes. There are no words to describe Tommy and his fantastic abilities! This just became my favorite. 🎸🔥
Little late on the messaging. Been looking through your old vids; how have you not reacted to "Primo Victoria" by Sabaton yet? It's their best song. Also, I'd highly recommend "Van Canto" They are an acapella metal group who cover some really great bands
Slightly off topic, but I'm going to recommend "Over the Hills and Far Away", John Tam's version of the 18th Century British Army marching song that featured in the 1990s "Sharpe" TV movies starring Sean Bean. No disrespect to Tommy, it is a very different sounding song in a very different context.
Gary Moore was Tommy's idol
When he was younger his dad show him Gary Moore guitar playing. Tommy said he wanted to grow up playing guitar and be just like him. He now owns one of Gary's guitars.
Gary would be so proud of Tommy keeping up his legacy.
This man is a force of nature. Does it all. The best vocals I have heard in a long time, if ever.
You get great guitarists and you get great vocalists but it’s so rare to get someone who can do both. Being a lifelong Gary Moore fan Tommy is the man to carry on his legacy.
Pom, on this level, the guitar only, reaches the difficulties in playing the piano (pro-level)! And on this - his voice!!! [Pianist Pro]
@@dlind1985 Totally forgot about his piano skills!
What an ANTHEM and Tommy SMOKED IT!
NOBODY does Gary Moore better than Tommy!
Not even Gary! *WoºW*
Gary Moore the reason why Tommy became a rock star!
*That's huge!* _Love you, Gary, for this!_
It's just as fantastic, the 100th time you hear it!
Gary Moore is amazing, but Tommy really does give it some welly! Love it.
Tommy , doing Tommy things, all for our joy.
He now owns one of Gary Moore's guitars 🙂 I love him. Multi instrumentalist, great voice and charismatic!
Tommy would make Gary proud. As always his cover is brilliant!
Tommy "Vocal Legend / Guitar Wizard" Johansson never cease to amaze me . This guy's talents are beyond words.
Tommy is unique - simple as that.
And he even manages to to get vibes from Gary's Thin Lizzy day in it.
Phenomenal
Tommy does an amazing job doing Gary Moore cover of
Empty Room.
Moore Tommy! Tommy’s skills and talent are on no other lever that no one can touch and compare to. Hats off to Tommy Johansson! 🔥🎸🔥 Love your reaction! 👏👏👏
All of Tommy’s covers of Gary Moore are amazing ,and what guitar solos he does 🎸💥🙏
Your face lit up and I thought you were about to jump up and give us a "happy dance"! 😊. Great reaction as always
Love to see him enjoying playing the guitar. You can tell he loves it. Nice reaction.
Tommy can give Gary a run for the money -- still think Gary is the GOAT tho !!!!
Tommy is the best for ever
Brilliant can we have some Gary Moore pls
No question, Tommy's love affair with Gary Moore's guitar playing and music is to be admired. I can't think of anyone who could carry Gary's torch to the finishing line than Tommy! Thank you for this reaction. Cheers! P.S. Love the lyrics to this song!
Love affair 😂 so true!!!
Yesss!!!!🤘
I'm in heaven ❤❤❤

No one can top Gary Moore, alone the voice from Gary is sooooo much better
You are biased
Gary's voice wasn't his strength, so disagree in that subject :), but oh my god what amazing songs he wrote
Over the Hills and Far Away was actually the first "Nightwish" song I ever heard, many years ago (with Tarja, of course), that's how I first heard Gary Moore's name.

Tarja😍
Tommy is a big fan of Gary Moore and he has covered a lot of his songs! You definitely have to check out some more of that!

He is a guitarist for Sabaton
Perfection 🤘🤘🤘❤️❤️❤️

@@ullabrittzoannos8972 I don't think I had ever heard of Gary until Tommy, but WOW, what an amazing artist! ❤
@@finnmccool2851 Then we both have a lot to look forward to. I can't understand how he played under my radar so many years. My bad!
Thanks for your fantastic reaction to fantastic Tommy J.❤❤I very much love Gary Moore's music .By the way, we have birthdays in the same day so...I guess I had no choice anyway!😂

Amazing as usual. Special Tommy.❤
The guitar seems to be a inspired by Gary Moore’s red Charvel Stratocaster replica.
Fantastic reaction video 😅 Happy to see how much you liked our Swedish national treasure 🤘 We are so proud of him in Sweden 🙏 Love from Tommyland ❤️
Amaizing Tommy! Great reaction 😀

When Tommy does Gary Moore covers you always know that it would be really amazing 🤩 And of course he's other covers to 😉❣️💥🎸
Thank you for this one 🙏🤗

There are no words to describe Tommy and his fantastic abilities!
This just became my favorite. 🎸🔥
Arias, you're gorgeous in this!
