- Jay Smith, Enter Sandman - Metallica on stage at Scandinavium, Gothenburg Sweden 3 december.
High quality audio and video
Winner of Swedish Idol 2010.
Scandinavium Göteborg 3 december 2010
It is my opinion, that Jay Smith is the most talented performer to ever win Idol, in any country. Not to sound obnoxious, but I have a very discerning ear and the way he masters performances from Madonna, to Phil Collins, to Metallica, and even performances he has on Facebook are proof of his depth, range, ability to play and sing (easier said than done). He has an amazing stage presence. I wish one day they would have an international Idol (bring it back once in the US), and have a competition amongst all winners collectively. I truly believe Jay Smith would be the winner, and I hope it comes to fruition.
This was 2009
Jay Smith and Erik Grönvall are the best ones in my opinion, but those are only the winners, Danny Saucedo is awesome and so were Calle Kristiansson! :)
say he's talented but he skipped the whole solo sounds like he's a pussy
He's wearing fingerless gloves come on bro. Get real.
Craig Shafer What do you think of In the getto, from Elvis, that was amazing
only in Scandinavia you could win with a metal song. Huge respect!
Well not anymore every one says that this music is bad :()
lol "everyone"
So true, and so sad...
Dark_6 almost Everyone :(((
Yes it's true
Thank GOD for Sweden being actually open to music and real talent, confidence and energy. Not the same re-hashed pop and rap heard in the mainstream, ROCK ON!
Sorry to burst your bubble, but at any time approx 25% of the main stream music on the top ten list have been written and/or produced by Swedes.
Merecir Maybe cause they're unsuccessful in Sweden?
Yann Negri Swedens top lists looks very similar to the US top list, just replace the rap and country with songs in Swedish.
nestor tomaselli Like Stongbad says, Scandinavia is the only place where death metal will still get you chicks.
not anymore tho
You Sweeds just know what good music is!
*Swedes :P
overTIMe HALLELUJA!!!
overTIMe Thanks!
It sucks nowadays, now there is something called "orten rap"
Luke Madman ahh yes the famous orten rap
Welcome to the Nordic Countries. Even our bullshit pop shows are metal.
+Toveri Juri thank Nordic Gods for that. and i am from another hemisphere of the planet and i thank those countries exists!!!
I'm fuckin moving house to Sweden
🤣🤣 we rule!
Idol 2009 och 2010 var bästa någonsin, så jävla mycket rock!
Why can't we have music like this in America?? i mean, its not quite like the original, of course, but this is still awesome!
Yeah they have to cut it to a certain length, so I guess they pick out the best bits and mash 'em
***** Actually he put more growl into it than James does. Sounded fine to me and I've been a Metallica fan for decades
Jen Dowie I think he`s actually holding back on the growl....
DaisyEpicness Sweeden doesnt have pop as much as us, in fact most eroupean countries favor rock over any other genre
Mike Quinn at least this is better than pop in nz pop is way over played on radio and its very annoying
That voice...
Swedish Idol is another level !!!
Why in the name of Metal Gods did they put those dancers?
+Jay-R Reyes In case someone there didn't have a brain
+Jay-R Reyes
Ah I think I know what's happened. The studio people don't know their Metallica. They thought this was Until it Sleeps.
+Jay-R Reyes hahah in the name od Metal Gods!!! fucking good one man!
+Jay-R Reyes first of all, this was in 2010, and its swedes that were talking about.
+Jay-R Reyes Because Mastodon.
Sweden seems like my kinda country
Hell ya me too
Damn right it is! Have you listened to the bands "In Flames" or "Avatar"?
Also Iron Fire!
Wait till you see the amount of muslims
Jävla rasist
Finally! A country that knows their shit! THIS is what should win all round the world, IMO
So true!!
I thought Thor had a hammer! That is one HELLLLLL of a Viking in the 21st century! LOVE it
Damn! I’m blown away by his stage presence and his talent. Amazing. What a strong voice
Ha ha , he looks like If James Hetfield and Kurt cobain had a Swedish kid.
lol, I thought the same thing😂
Ha ha😂
Haha wow
Basically Chad Kroeger.
He looks simply sweed ;)
HELL YEAH!!!!!
now here's a real winner!
Okay, he has fucking dancers for some reason and screwed the lyrics up at one time, but he's born to be on stage :D I rate this 9,9/10
+BewbsAreAzum He said later that he blacked out while singing, because of the pressure. Thats why he messed the lyrics up.
asshat I don't blame him.
+BewbsAreAzum I'd give it a solid 5/7
+Valters Vagotiņš- Vagulis Good reference. Take my like.
When Jay was on idol in 2010 i was 10 yo... i loved him and i still do 7 years later. He is amazing and this kinds of voices always gets my attention.
I. Have. Goosebumps. SERIOUSLY he is so good
SO THERES A DIFFERENT UNIVERSE CALLED SWEDEN WHERE A ROCK STAR CAN WIN A SINGING COMPETITION.
Yes, we even celebrate the Waffle Day.
I miss this time. Now a days everything is about pop, you can't come in with a rock voice. I hate it.
You still can, easy, you just need to have a good enough voice.
Metal voice😑
Long live Rock
Finally someone who is worth it to cover a song from Metallica and doesn't ruin their song xD
gotta move to sweden....
YESSS MANNNN
he's the best, I'm in love with his voice!
Hi from Greece !
And glad to see that people there still know what music is !
i have seen him and his band live a few times now and i can deffenetly say it is one of the most awesome times i've had!
He rocked it! I grew up listening to Metallica and he did a damn good job.
I'm in love with his deep and raspy voice
Man, Sweden has a better taste in music then at the U.S.
bro look at all the metal bands we made. Rock on bro!
Metal bands per capita in the world. i.imgur.com/P5Yfz.png It's good to live here up north \,,/ (>.
what a voice .. i love to hear more of this guy..
Beyond amazing. Why don't we hear more of you brother?!?! Please don't let your talent go down with the lines of charlie. Shape up and sing!
Agree 🥰
As a Swede, i feel very proud to the fact that Sweden is classified as a metal country! :)
Ja lite synd dock att det typ inte är då med den yngre generationen, man känner sig lite ensam ibland bland all ortenrapp
Adam Aksoy Aa exakt, ungjävlar 😂
David Klys typ😂 man går till skolan å hör massa skitmusik i deras jävla bluetooth högtalare. ”Kan ni inte spela lite slayer förfan!?”
Adam Aksoy Jo precis! Det är så det ska vara 🤘🏼
I f'n love this performance. I'm a metal head even now....especially now at 53. I do appreciate a good vocal and I believe there is none more kickass than metal vocals. Chills. If I don't get them, then you have lost my interest. Got to be chilling.
you can still be a metal head even at 82 (proved by a grandpa who sang let the bodies hit the floor sur american's got talent)
Yep you can. Just check out the Wakken Open Air festival in Germany. There are a lot of old people, young people, babies, little kids. It is like a big family weekend over there. I'm listening to The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg (Iron Maiden for those who don't know). Brucie is still one of my faves.
well i live in switzerland so why not check it out if i have the time during vacation or something
Stay Rock Jay! Standing ovation from Italy
Damn.. feel like going to a concert already.. u rock dude
OMG Sweden has the best "Idol" and "The Voice" rock singers. I got to get Swedish TV :)
Freaking Sweden.. I love this country
Thank God Metal still lives in some Countries. time for TRUE Metal to come back to the States.
love swedish...... you have alot of great musician.. i love in flames...
I love how the Rest of the World Follows Everything America does 1st, 20 years ago . Don't take me wrong I love seeing Swedish kids singing 20 year old MetallicA love it!American Idol, Swedish Idol Still the World Leader ! But really Brings me back to 1991! Thanks for that MetallicA will never Die !
Sweden Can we borrow some of your musicians? America is really lacking in that department
haha well...
Excuse me, please go out and see some local fucking musicians instead of listening to fucking radio bullshit! There are literally thousands of great musicians trying to make it out there, we are NOT lacking. Top 40 music is what sells, it is not a reflection on the quality of our talent, it is a reflection on the majority of the countries shitty taste in music. If more people took the time to go out and support local bands, instead of buying whatever pop dog shit is put out you might know this!
karldammann U Mad Bro?
David Bajen U 12 years old bro?
karldammann I bet you are 12..
Looks at American Idol, Voice US etc. sees Adele and other shit idek
Looks at Sweedish Idol, Voice Sweden etc. sees Metallica, Iron Maiden.
Looks at American economy
Looks at Swedish economy
Looks at American pollution
Looks at Swedish pollution
Looks at American Healthcare
Looks at Swedish Healthcare
Looks at American Airlines
Looks at Swedish Made Wallet
Fuck
Noah Vieira looks at Swedish women:)?
How many good bands come from Sweden though?
Antony Walton Too many to list. :)
Erik Ljunggren and yet he is singing what song in the finale? from what band? That's what i thought. Next! lol
MacHead G5er He's a hard rock/heavy metal singer. And he is singing one of the most well known metal songs of all time. That makes sense to me. And if you care enough to look it up you'll find that there are several amazing swedish bands. Mainly pop and rock/metal. I'll just say ABBA and leave it up to you if you're interested.
TL;DR version. Sweden is awesome. ABBA.
the best "come on" ive ever heard
Sweden rocks man, true appreciation from India here.
Www.. Waoww Jay Smith , u hv amazing voice ...keep on rockin, best regard from Indonesia
God bless Sweden and their metal
Why can't we have this in America? :(
You read my mind bud.
our country is fucked, thats why lol.... we have justin beiber, taylor swift and a bunch of crock singers
Sweden is just the most badass country ever. Nothing beats Sweden.
4lchera Yeah and u know the swedish girls, they´re badass to!! listen to this gurl /watch?v=HKtNhX8kFcg a badass girl singing no woman no cry
4lchera Except maybe for Finland.
now if we could get something like that on The Voice Belgium, that would be awesome!
swedish knows music well~salute & greeting from Asia.
This guy is so talanted. He can sing everything from this to madonna to soft ballads. Miss him, where did he go!?
This is great!! I wish they'd do this stuff in america.
we need more testosterone in new music
I COULDNT AGREE MORE
Hahaha sad but true
YES
Agreed.
Agree
oh my fuckin gawd!
that was an absolute eargasm
Damn, this guy can tear it up! Rock on brother
Can't tell if the guitars are de-tuned but somehow his vocals give this song even more punch and darkness, Hetfield would be proud
Sweden, one of the best countrys in the world for metal! \m/Arch Enemy, In flames, evergrey, Tiamat \m/ sweden, Finland and Holland surely have the best bands right now!
För i helvete... Dansarna sabbar fan allt.
Bjov ja de måste få pengar på nåt sätt
The Sweeds are just to SWEEEEEETT!!!!!🤙🤙🤘🤘🤘🤘
The flames were a nice touch. His voice was spot on, same with his guitar playing. I give it an 8/10 for lack of a solo. Very nice still
Keep on rocking \m/
Whow!!!!!!!!!! Fantastic!!!!!!!
Only in Sweden. They appreciate good metal \,,/!
This is the time when you are proud off being a swed, but Jesus Christ why the godamn dancers?
Yeah im swede xD I think the dancers ruin the metal feeling u know brah :)
yah
must have been fucking embarrasing to be one of those dancers, dancing whores to a crowd that big plus its on tv
I seriously need to move to Sweden.
His audition is so much better! If anyone didn't like this you should watch that video instead!
ahhh i remember this time! i was in per brahe school in sweden at this time! and i was so hypte when i head they say jay smith with enter sandman
Chicks and metal. Beautiful Sweden.
I want my kids to grow up in Sweden xD
Lol, 35 likes (that is a lot for me). I guess a girl from Colombia 🇨🇴 is not alone 🤟🏼.
+Isabella López Cifuentes You don't, trust me.
many mams from africa want it to
In other words you want your kids to be victims of rape and degeneration?
LeThayle believe me, if I raise them in Colombia (where I am from btw) they are not only potential victims from that (in an increased rate) but also way more violence, poor educational system, poor heatlh care system, way more corrupt government. Dont get me wrong, I love Colombia and our more close to nature and all that but here we have way too much violence.
diascrive yeah well if you live in a city here in Colombia you are stuck in an apartment as well. I guess in Sweden you may pay more taxes but at least you get to see the results of paying those, here the corruption is soooooo deep in everything that its really frustrating. I rather pay more taxes knowing that My government really works haha 😅.
this blows away Metallica. yeah Sweden Rocks.
Blows away Metallica ? Your drunk
Dude go look up Metallica Monsters of Rock Moscow 1991. The audience size is 1.6 million. One point six million. And see what they did there.
R u high
Aussie here
I don't know what turned me on more: his breathtaking looks, or his paralyzing, awesome voice!
Sweden is fucking awesome... If this was in England.. In fact, let's face it, this would not be mainstream media in the uk
So glad to see metal finally in Idol....
ive never been interested in listening to pussy Pop covers....
This is right up my alley, fuck yeah!
This guys spits out biebers when he had something bad to eat. His freaking brilliant wow
o why can't we have music like this anymore and shows like this
BEST SONG EVER
at least sweeden has a better taste of music than the usa
sweden is fucking awesome
wtf they actually let them perform metal unlike any other country
fuck yeah thats awesome!
Love this cover
Take my hand! off to never never land!! YESSSSSS I loveeeee loveee loveeee METALLICA
Cant some fucking big american rock producer sign this guy? Instead of our zara larsson and the other shit we got?!
but he's in jail for drug abuse right now
Lina Yamada HAH No.. Hes playing in my town tonight!! :D Gonna see him tonight. So exited!
Oliver Persson oh really? i saw like in some newspaper that said that.. Well, i guess you really can't trust everything you read. Have fun! :)
w-wait, why don't we have this here in France :'(
+FlipperWolf Non , dommage :/
cuz we have cancerous music like Jule... french rap...
SheiitanR6 Enfin un français.
je ne sai pas si les noms de Gojira (nommés pour les Grammy-Awards/album de l'année décerné par le magazine Metal-Hammer) ou Dagoba vous disent quelque, c'est juste qu'ils ne sont pas médiatisés en France.....
Christophe MARTINEAU oh mais pas de soucis je connais très bien nos groupes Français ^^
He fucked up the lyrics!!
He said afterwards that he was nervous as fuck, and got a blackout...
wow
I belive he had to sing some lyrics wrong because of copyrights and what not
it's not his language give him a break
Brandon Scales how does that even matter... besides, he seems to have developed some accent and understanding of english. He can't be excused on that matter.
Literally my fave song
thats the best cover I'vr ever heard on this song. nice vocals, perfect for this song.
He also has alot of Corey Taylor in his voice =)
He really does
moving to sweden
I need to move to Sweden.
Many thanks Pascal for to upload this FANTASTIC "Enter Sandman" version!... this is my very first time to see and hear your
post...GREAT JOB! ...greetings from Santiago, Chile.
Jay är den bästa som funnits i idol någonsin
This wins idol shows in Sweden? Dammit man, why are we such pansies in America?
This is why literally ANYWHERE else in the world is better than America.
I'll never understand why America hates metal so much...
***** Not really, metal heads wish we still lived in the 80's where metal was huge, we're a minority now and it sucks.
Same with the UK here too, it sucks so much. Loads of poppy crap everywhere.
...as he plays along to a recorded karaoke version of a Metallica song.
Brendan Tynan There is a band in the background, watch the beginning again.
I'm an American. Metal/Rock are my main genres. Thanks to my dad.
But you're right. America sucks ass music wise.
this is james hetfield or kurt cobain XDDDD
+Ricardo Rodriguez mix between them
Ricardo Rodriguez kurt cobain no!
Ricardo Rodriguez it s a mix but him voice it s the same of james hetfield for me i m a fan of Metallica
i would say St. Anger Hetfield mixed with Cobain
THOMAS CRISTER James hetfield
I love this Soo much 😍
Dude freaking rocks, best version I have heard in awhile, aside from the original; then again Scandinavia and the entire region produce some brilliant rock and metal artists.
Haha, this wins scandanavian idol, it wouldnt even get accepted on american idol haha
shit voice
Because the dood isn't belting screeching high notes to shit music.
+Javier Mty fuck u autotune fan
JgHaverty
Cause American Idol doesn't appreciate true energetic, passionate music.
Europe was a Swedish band wasn't it? I actually liked them. My wife's 1/2 Swede.
That was fuckin' awesome!
This is awesomeness at its finest
his interpretation of the song is spot on
