    Tom tells a story about this duet. When they finished it the first time, Stevie didn’t feel like had gotten it and asked to do it again. The director said, “no that was fine, we got what we needed.” And Tom said, “Excuse me. If Stevie wants to do it again, we’re gonna do it again!”

      jurymax99 Well, If this show was taped in 1969 (as the caption clearly states) & Stevie Wonder was born in 1950 that would make him 19-years old here. For Stevie to be 29 as you claim, this episode would have had to be aired in 1979? That would be difficult since “The Tom Jones Show” only ran for three years (1969 - 1971). Now Tom Jones was 29-years old here, but that’s not what I said in my comment.

      1) He intentionally booked guests who sang in styles different from him so he could do duets with people in THEIR styles. In consecutive episodes, he'd have Johnny Cash, Little Richard, and Janis Joplin.
      2) As much as he has a fan base in the US... he is basically a Demi-God in the UK. If you see outtake clips of the coaches (of which he is one) on "The Voice - UK" during their downtime, mostly it's Tom Jones holding court -- with Will.I.Am, et al... all ears, no egos... just soaking it all in. When the coolest of cool superstars stop and listen to you, you're cool by definition.

      2) In the US -- he had a number of forces working against him.
      a) He didn't write his own songs and he didn't front a nuclear band in an era when doing one or the other was paramount.
      b) His TV show ran 3 seasons on ABC in the US... the first two to ratings success. Then, in season 3, NBC and CBS began running Hollywood films against him. This was a big deal in the 1970s, before VCRs, DVDs, streaming video, TV networks got huge ratings from showing Hollywood films. They begged ABC to put him in another time slot; ABC refused. His ratings tanked. This may have been on purpose, as ABC was notoriously cheap thru the early 70s and knew Jones was making about $100k per episode when Carroll O'Connor was making less than $30k per episode to star in All In The Family, 1971's highest-rated TV show. Jones would have become much more expensive had ABC wanted a Season 4.
      c) Two years before the start of his TV show, he regularly began appearing in Vegas. In the 60s & 70s... artists with regular Vegas gigs were thought of as acts that had jumped the shark.

You can tell by how he is copying Stevie's mannerisms (clapping, standing in one place). He even went as far as to take his side ("If Stevie wants to do it again, we'll do it again") on his own show. They became immediate friends. Tom is such a class act, always let his guests take the spotlight while he provided support.

      ...as is the Voice of Tom! 🤗 Saw him live in 2018...STILL EVERY SINGLE NOTE ON KEY...don't think many others (maybe apart from Stevie) would be able to do so...

    Man this is one of the best performances I’ve ever seen, both of them are just so in sync and so obviously enjoy hearing each other kill it. I fucking live this so much. And Stevie’s voice just about kills me

    Tom Jones has such a distinct beautiful voice. I love his songs.
