I was his bassist in 1978 and ‘79. He is an amazing singer that never resorted to any fake tuning or electronics. He refused to let the sound men use compressor/limiters on his voice. A true natural talent and entertainer as well as just a nice guy. Always treated us like family. He always gave 100% on every performance! I liked your comparison to Otis Redding regarding soul and real.
One of the most amazing singers in recent history. His power, emotion, and sex appeal were unmatched. Women wanted him and men wanted to be him. So many good songs from him.
Sir Tom Jones is an Icon...82yrs old and hasn't lost a step...Between touring he is a coach on the Voice UK...One of a kind singer...Been at the top for over 60yrs, Incredible...
As a birthday present, I took my 12-year-old sister to a Tom Jones concert. We sat way in the back because that's all the ticket price I could afford. All of a sudden, my sister jumped up from her seat, ran all the way to the front, rushed the stage and kissed Tom! What a riot and a favorite memory from my teen years.
Tom Jones was my mom's favorite singer. I remember when he came on tv in the 60's my mom would sit with her face 8 inches from the tv. I took her to one of his concerts when she was in her 50's and she screamed like a teenager. LOL
Tom Jones is one of the greatest singers of all time. He is a Welshman and a good friend of Elvis. Tom is alive and well in his 80s and is a judge on the talent show called "THE VOICE". He still has a great voice.
Tom Jones is a legend. He was a sexy beast during the 70s and 80s and even insured his chest hair. You've def seen him in the later parts of his career. He plays himself in "Mars Attacks!" by Tim Burton. He has an amazing voice. The Welsh can sing their butts off.
He is Welsh. This was written by Lonnie Donegon. A legendary Skiffle artist and great friend he gave it to him. On the voice a couple of years ago his son was a contestant and after his audition they talked and then did this song together it was so special.
"Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its' Flavor on the Bed post Overnight? If Your Mother Says Don't Chew It, Do You Swallow It in Spite? Can You Catch It on Your Tonsils, & You Heave It Left & Right? Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its' Flavor on the Bed post Overnight?" ...... Lonnie Donegon (1961)
@Charles Williams Love it and the exuberant My old man's a dustman . Skiffle was so creative instruments made of boxes sticks string and of course the washboard. Nearly forgot Rock Island line and Putting on the style.
One hit wonder? Aah..no way! LOL! I was a kid when Tom was big..but I cried when I heard him do this song. He made me feel his pain. He's an awesome singer.
Women used to throw their underwear onstage to Tom Jones who is a Welsh man. I’m subscribed since you’re reacting to the likes of Mr. Tom Jones. 🤗 I love Otis Redding too!!!
I worked in a bakery 30 years ago and the cake decorator loved Tom Jones, he was her muse. She'd crank up the cassette player and decorate away to his singing. Good times.
... still breaks this woman's heart, and it's more than fifty years later, hearing this powerful yet tender song from Tom Jones again, remembering my first heart break. We all feel it PR. 💙💙
Please dive real deep!! His music is timeless and-at 82 yrs young, he's still got it!! Back in the day during his concerts women would throw panties and hotel room keys on the stage...no lie!!😎 He was known for his dance moves and incredible swag!🎶 He is from Wales🎵🎶
Such a powerful voice. You need to see Tom sing "I Who Have Nothing," imo, the live version on Tom's own TV show (This is Tom Jones) in 1970 is the best. Look forward to you reaction!
Men have a lot of existential pride that gets in the way when it comes to emotional relationships. We hurt deeply; we hurt for a long -- sometimes a long, long time. And very often, we never recover... We may not die by arrows, but we certainly die by rejection.
Tom Jones, Sir Tom Jones that is! He is Welsh-born, around 1940. His voice is amazing. I got to watch him weekly on his entertainment TV show in the early 70's. He was a judge on the Voice too, for a few years. His career is definitely not a one hit wonder. I love this song Never Fall in Love and the following; - Without Love - I who have nothing - Delilah - Sex Bomb - You're My World - What's New Pussy Cat Just too many to list
He still got at the age of 82. I’m at the age where I got to see him perform live. My mother was a huge fan. So I got to see him several times in concert. It was cheaper to go to concerts, then to pay a babysitter. He had a TV show at one time. Where he performed a medley with Stevie Wonder, Janis Joplin, Wilson Pickett, Little Richard, Ray Charles, Cher, Joe Cocker and the list goes on and on. He’s now a coach on The Voice. On the Voice, they must’ve been taking a break. The audience encouraged Tom to sing. Jennifer Hudson and will.i.am were also judges. What touched my heart, was that Jennifer and will.i.am knew what a treasure Tom is. Even though, chances are their parents weren’t even born when Tom was at its height. It’s possible the grandparents were even born. But they knew, he is a treasure.
There's a reason his peers called him 'the voice' 🏴🔥🔥🔥 Sir Tom Jones 🏴🔥🔥🔥 Duets with Janis Joplin and Little Richard will bring joy to your soul
The requester is a Cool Grandma !! He has been one of my favorites since I was a little girl. The theme song to OO7's Thunderball made me want to become a Bond girl. I was 7 yrs old.
TREAT HER RIGHT from his TV show is phenomenal. Different from this in many ways but still incredible! He had many guests on his show and sang duets with some of the most famous singers of that time - FROM ALL GENRES .
I’ve seen Sir. Tom Jones in concert three times. Never a moment without full commitment on stage. Glad someone as young as you can appreciate truly inspiring talent. Sir. Tom Jones voice is still iconic and he challenges himself to perform many different types of songs from different generations of music.
I saw Tom in concert 3 years ago. It was among my 5 top concerts. His voice is as strong as it was in the 60s. His stage presence, his physicality, his sexiness, the production, everything. I fell in love with him when I was 12 years old……56 years later it’s the same feeling about this phenomenal performer.
One of the most versatile voice, STILL today in his 80s, who ever hit the industry. If you’ve watch Fresh Prince of Bel Air, you’ve heard Tom Jones. He was Carlton’s idol…The Carlton Dance😅 Elvis was his idol, Elvis loved Tom Jones’ voice. Eventually became close friends to the end.
I have been a fan of Tom Jones for over 40 years. You might say he was my first crouch. He has lots of great songs Delilah, I Who Have Nothing, Not unusual and more. TY for putting him on. BTW he is no "One Hit Wonder".
TJ was a HUGE fan of OR. Tom is one of the greatest male vocalist bar none. His lung capacity is something to behold. I seen Tom twice in the '80s and once in the 90s and each time was an unbelievable experience. The power fills the entire theater. It was always an experience that I will never forget.
Tom still has that voice - in fact, he's one of the judges on The Voice - occasionally he'll sing alone or in a duet & even once I watched him sing with a contestant!
So many listeners thought he was a black singer. We only heard him on the radio. Even Elvis thought he was a black singer. I don’t think Tom has ever hit a wrong note.
Fantastic. Tom jones is a 6-decade wonder. Still singing. He is a judge on the voice UK. His The Green Green Grass of home is also wonderful. Oh, have you heard/reacted to a song written specifically for Otis Redding by the Bee Gees? It is called To Love Somebody. When Redding died in a plane crash just before recording it, the Bee Gees decided to do it themselves. Phenomenal. It is also a late 60s era song
This is certainly one of the best live performances by a singer of all time. 100 years from now people's jaws will still be dropping hearing his powerful and emotive vocals.
My favorite male singer of all time. Nothing compares. I've been through rock, punk, and all that came after and I still love him, and this is my favorite song. I am so glad you got to discover him.
Great reaction 😊 I love Otis Redding too, all the incredible music he made and would have made given longer, and Tom said Otis gave him the biggest compliment ever by saying - all of us try to do what you do , your the greatest soul singer in the world - Tom is from Wales - the land of song
...I was so impressed, moved really, by the deep understanding and the compassionate response you had to Tom Jiones' expression of his heartbreak. You wrote about it so beautifully...and you were very generous in sharing such personal feelings. You're gonna make some deserving woman very happy someday...
This man is still killin it! He was a ladies man, a dancer, a singer EXTRODIANAIRE, had a show on TV, he sang with Ella, Tina, Frank, Janice... ALL THE GREATS and remained married to the love of his life until recently.. he's heartbroken and still touring and touching us all with his depth and conviction.
Tom is now 82 and can still kick vocal booty! Listen to his duet with Jennifer Hudson of "It's A Man's World" This was sung while they were both judges on "The Voice UK". Also, the son of the man who wrote this song was a contestant on the show and he and Tom performed this song! He is the singer of the song "It's Not Unusual" to which Carlton does his famous dance moves on "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" and after watching this video you can see where Alfonso took inspiration from Tom on some of his expressions! Good reaction!
The lyrics were written by a man named Lonegan for Tom Jones to sing. Sir Tom is a judge on the Voice UK and a couple years ago the son of the lyrics writer was a contestant on that show. Sir Tom and the son performed a duet of that song and it brought the house down. Check it out. He's a class act.
Not particularly my thing,but you have to say he had/has one hell of a voice,and so much emotion. Truly a master class of singing power. Personally I'm a rocker but I take my hat off to Mr.Jones. I remember watching him as kid on TV and my mum loved him. Nowadays he's on a talent spotting show here in Britain 🇬🇧......and can teach the youngsters a thing or two about singing. Two of his big hits were "Delilah" and "The green green grass oh home". Check them out......you'll not be disappointed.
Check out when Tom sang with John Farnham when they were on tour together in Australia, rocking a cover of AC/DC's "It's A Long Way To The Top [If You Want To Rock And Roll]." Both singers are incredible powerhouses. Watch Tom also in other duets on his TV show back in 1969... so many awesome performances with top artists of the time like Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, Aretha Franklin, and Ray Charles. You should definitely check out one of the shows where he sang with Janis Joplin ("Raise Your Hand') and one with Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young ("Long Time Gone"). Tom is phenomenal, loves all kinds of music, is masterful in many genres, and has had many hits, adapting/updating his image and styles over six decades! Some notable songs include one of his first hits, "It's Not Unusual," and "I Who Have Nothing," "Green, Green Grass Of Home," "Delilah," "She's A Lady," "What's New, Pussycat," and "Thunderball." More hits came later... such as "Burning Down the House," "Sexbomb," "If I Only Knew," "Burning Hell," "Tower Of Song," and others, including his cover of Bob Dylan's "One More Cup Of Coffee." Tom is still singing, touring, and recording... and his voice at age 82 is still incredible, rich, and powerful! His most recent album dropped in May of 2021 and shot to No.1 on the UK album charts!
Tom Jones and Janis Joplin...duet on his show...Raise your Hand up...fantastic Performance.. Sir Tom, judge on the Voice, check out a clip still singing, sounds great... Love Tom, Soul comes in many colors..just like Righteous Brothers...Elvis, ... Enjoying your Channel 😊
Timeless, Amazing, God given voice. The one and only. Whoever comes close? Just divine. Nobody can hold a candle for Tom. He's the greatest singer ever! Bravo ! Continue to rock dear Tommy!!!
Tom is in his eighties now and one of the judges on The Voice Britain. Check him out on You Tube for that show. He is still singing on the show . By the way Queen E. officially gave the title Sir Tom Jones.
Loved your reaction. You seem like a really nice person. I just saw Sir Tom in concert in September 2022. To quote you, he is still oozing with soul power and swag. Check him out on The Voice UK singing "Cry to Me".
Sir Tom spent much of his singing time from 1967 in the USA in Las Vegas. Due to his live work and television shows, for a few decades he neglected his recording career. The best vocalist of his type the UK has ever produced by far in his genre, and maybe in the top 3 in the world.
Tom Jones is 84 years old I saw him in June 2024 in his show in Chepstow in Wales 🏴and he still sounds the same today , he is a judge on the television a show called the Voice he usually sings a song on the show ,check out the shows and there is a song he sings with Jennifer Hudson won’t say no more you will be amazed.

DELILAH ....TOM JONES
Moves me!!!!!!!!

Thanks Robert for the insight! Love this. Always heard he was a down to earth artist. I’m a bass player myself, thanks brother.
What "fake tuning" in '78/'79?
You also played with Diane warren, Dixie chicks, Michael Bolton and Leann rimes also just to name a few 😁👍
U were so lucky!! I always loved his voice.
That's so cool
Sir Tom is Welsh. Man, can the people of Wales sing!! 🏴
Yes they can. We can add Shirley Bassey to that list of great Welsh singers too. 👍🏽 👍🏽 👍🏽
One of the most amazing singers in recent history. His power, emotion, and sex appeal were unmatched. Women wanted him and men wanted to be him. So many good songs from him.
Sir Tom Jones is an Icon...82yrs old and hasn't lost a step...Between touring he is a coach on the Voice UK...One of a kind singer...Been at the top for over 60yrs, Incredible...
Bei Voice UK hat er dieses Lied live mit dem Sohn des Komponisten gesungen.
There is no one else who has that Welsh powerful voice. He was and still is incredible 😍
He can still sing NOW. Did not lose his singing voice.
Still got it in his 80 's fantastic voice we are all very proud of him x
Ur so right
As a birthday present, I took my 12-year-old sister to a Tom Jones concert. We sat way in the back because that's all the ticket price I could afford. All of a sudden, my sister jumped up from her seat, ran all the way to the front, rushed the stage and kissed Tom! What a riot and a favorite memory from my teen years.
My mother melted every time this man opened his mouth and started singing. LOL
hes a white welshman and very famous 82 yrs still singing 'the voice uk'
Tom Jones was my mom's favorite singer. I remember when he came on tv in the 60's my mom would sit with her face 8 inches from the tv. I took her to one of his concerts when she was in her 50's and she screamed like a teenager. LOL
My mom too.
Tom Jones and Englebert humperdink + Diana Ross....on repeat when I was a kid 😂
Tom Jones is one of the greatest singers of all time. He is a Welshman and a good friend of Elvis. Tom is alive and well in his 80s and is a judge on the talent show called "THE VOICE".
He still has a great voice.
Damn he's tenor, baritone and bass all at once, I've never heard anything more beautiful, ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!!!
“I Who Have Nothing” is another great song. Tom has many hits, he had a TV show where he did duets with some of the top artists of that time
I love all his songs. Green green grass of home is one of my favorites
@@susanocasio2173
Oh with Janis Joplin? I remember that one - think he does too
Listen to his It's Not Unusual. Featured on fresh prince. Alfonso dancing to it.
That's my favorite of his.I introduced my daughter to him with this song 🎵. Needless say she's a fan ❤️
“It’s Not Unusual” is a signature song of his.
Oh, yes!
Carlton from Fresh Prince of Bel-Air always did his famous dance to this dance.
Tom Jones comes from a long tradition of Welsh singers and actors known for their powerful voices.
I'm also old enough to be your grandmother and I LOVE to watch young people hearing my favorite music.
From Wales, UK. He still going strong to this day😊❤ .
Not only could he sing his heart out, but he had some crazy moves that women loved!! Check them out!! 🕺 🕺 🕺
He is still touring he had his own show we had him every week back then it was magic. Elvis called him the voice.
Tom Jones is a legend. He was a sexy beast during the 70s and 80s and even insured his chest hair. You've def seen him in the later parts of his career. He plays himself in "Mars Attacks!" by Tim Burton. He has an amazing voice. The Welsh can sing their butts off.
Tom Jones can still sing- he can really belt it out, and he’s 80! Still hits those notes that give you chills. ❤
No computer correction voice crap used by today's singers....thia is live TV..pure talent
Tom still is "the man." No one-hit wonder - at 82 now, he still is a great "crooner." I like your channel. I'll be tuning back in. Thank you.
He is Welsh. This was written by Lonnie Donegon. A legendary Skiffle artist and great friend he gave it to him. On the voice a couple of years ago his son was a contestant and after his audition they talked and then did this song together it was so special.
"Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its' Flavor on the Bed post Overnight? If Your Mother Says Don't Chew It, Do You Swallow It in Spite? Can You Catch It on Your Tonsils, & You Heave It Left & Right? Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its' Flavor on the Bed post Overnight?"
...... Lonnie Donegon (1961)
@Charles Williams Love it and the exuberant My old man's a dustman . Skiffle was so creative instruments made of boxes sticks string and of course the washboard. Nearly forgot Rock Island line and Putting on the style.
The Welsh have a reputation for beautiful singing.
He’s a Welshman and they are some of the best singers in the World.
Delilah by Tom Jones
Tom Jones has performed non stop in forever. 😂😂😂
One hit wonder? Aah..no way! LOL! I was a kid when Tom was big..but I cried when I heard him do this song. He made me feel his pain. He's an awesome singer.
He can still sing like this today. He's on The Voice in the UK. (In his 80's!)
He definitely has a cult following! Everytime you hear him you cant help but turning it up! ❤️
What a hunk of a man!!! Not to mention, such a wonderful, great singer. Thank you for playing his music
Ole Tom has still got it! We love watching clips from The Voice UK where he breaks out for the audience.
Badass performer.
Women used to throw their underwear onstage to Tom Jones who is a Welsh man.
I’m subscribed since you’re reacting to the likes of Mr. Tom Jones. 🤗
I love Otis Redding too!!!
I remember how women in the audience threw their panties at him, too! LOL! He had half the women in the US in love with him back in the day!
Absolute legend 🙌
I worked in a bakery 30 years ago and the cake decorator loved Tom Jones, he was her muse. She'd crank up the cassette player and decorate away to his singing. Good times.
This performance by Sir Tom Jones was and still is a vocal masterclass.
... still breaks this woman's heart, and it's more than fifty years later, hearing this powerful yet tender song from Tom Jones again, remembering my first heart break. We all feel it PR. 💙💙
Please dive real deep!! His music is timeless and-at 82 yrs young, he's still got it!! Back in the day during his concerts women would throw panties and hotel room keys on the stage...no lie!!😎 He was known for his dance moves and incredible swag!🎶 He is from Wales🎵🎶

- I who have nothing
- Delilah
- Sex Bomb
- You're My World
- What's New Pussy Cat
Just too many to list
He still got at the age of 82. I’m at the age where I got to see him perform live. My mother was a huge fan. So I got to see him several times in concert.

There's a reason his peers called him 'the voice' 🏴🔥🔥🔥 Sir Tom Jones 🏴🔥🔥🔥
Duets with Janis Joplin and Little Richard will bring joy to your soul
Tom is a Welshman who is also one of, if not ,the best Baritone ever. My Mom saw him live and fell in love.
The requester is a Cool Grandma !! He has been one of my favorites since I was a little girl. The theme song to OO7's Thunderball made me want to become a Bond girl. I was 7 yrs old.
one of his best!
He has been a Judge on the voice. He was my gma’s favorite!!
TREAT HER RIGHT from his TV show is phenomenal. Different from this in many ways but still incredible! He had many guests on his show and sang duets with some of the most famous singers of that time - FROM ALL GENRES .
Yes! You have to see him dance!
The women in the audience threw their underwear on the stage. He was quite a sex symbol.
I still love his voice. I absolutely believe what he is singing.
I’ve seen Sir. Tom Jones in concert three times. Never a moment without full commitment on stage. Glad someone as young as you can appreciate truly inspiring talent. Sir. Tom Jones voice is still iconic and he challenges himself to perform many different types of songs from different generations of music.
Tom Jones…they broke the mold after he was born!

"Crush" you mean?
TJ was a HUGE fan of OR.
Tom is one of the greatest male vocalist bar none. His lung capacity is something to behold.
I seen Tom twice in the '80s and once in the 90s and each time was an unbelievable experience. The power fills the entire theater. It was always an experience that I will never forget.
A fun fact that may tie Tom Jones closer to your age cohort is that he was Carlton’s favorite singer on the show Fresh Prince of Bel Air
Tom Jones has an amazing voice. I love to see the reaction on people's faces that hear Tom for the first time. Unbelievable voice.
It’s not unusual to be blown away by Sir Toms voice - see what I did there. A true legend
I saw him close up at a small venue in 1970. He's amazing.
Tom still has that voice - in fact, he's one of the judges on The Voice - occasionally he'll sing alone or in a duet & even once I watched him sing with a contestant!
Tom's voice is so powerful and beautiful always love listening to him sing
Tom jones is 83 and still singing and is a judge on the voice show
Tom Jones love you ❤❤❤❤❤❤
So many listeners thought he was a black singer. We only heard him on the radio. Even Elvis thought he was a black singer. I don’t think Tom has ever hit a wrong note.
Fantastic. Tom jones is a 6-decade wonder. Still singing. He is a judge on the voice UK. His The Green Green Grass of home is also wonderful.

Definitely
My favorite male singer of all time. Nothing compares. I've been through rock, punk, and all that came after and I still love him, and this is my favorite song. I am so glad you got to discover him.
Great reaction 😊 I love Otis Redding too, all the incredible music he made and would have made given longer, and Tom said Otis gave him the biggest compliment ever by saying - all of us try to do what you do , your the greatest soul singer in the world - Tom is from Wales - the land of song
I’m 66, and I had a same reaction the first time I saw Tom Jones on TV: “He’s a White guy?” I thought Tom Jones was Black.
...I was so impressed, moved really, by the deep understanding and the compassionate response you had to Tom Jiones' expression of his heartbreak. You wrote about it so beautifully...and you were very generous in sharing such personal feelings. You're gonna make some deserving woman very happy someday...
He had many hits & his own TV show. I was a kid but I loved him. I saw him in concert when I was 19 years old. Fabulous voice!
This man is still killin it! He was a ladies man, a dancer, a singer EXTRODIANAIRE, had a show on TV, he sang with Ella, Tina, Frank, Janice... ALL THE GREATS and remained married to the love of his life until recently.. he's heartbroken and still touring and touching us all with his depth and conviction.
My mother, who was born in 1931, loved Tom Jones. I can still remember her singing along with his cassettes.
Tom Jones is awesom!!
Great reaction! Keep Tom's talent alive, he is phenomenal ❤❤
Tom is now 82 and can still kick vocal booty! Listen to his duet with Jennifer Hudson of "It's A Man's World" This was sung while they were both judges on "The Voice UK". Also, the son of the man who wrote this song was a contestant on the show and he and Tom performed this song! He is the singer of the song "It's Not Unusual" to which Carlton does his famous dance moves on "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" and after watching this video you can see where Alfonso took inspiration from Tom on some of his expressions! Good reaction!
Tom is the only "celebrity " that I am in awe of. He is the best singer in the ❤❤❤world! I love him!
It’s just a song. He was fine. Just a powerful singer!!! Love me some Tom Jones!!!!
Englebert, man without love, not too shabby, nice to see the young folk going back to times of innovating music, regards RS London boy.
The lyrics were written by a man named Lonegan for Tom Jones to sing. Sir Tom is a judge on the Voice UK and a couple years ago the son of the lyrics writer was a contestant on that show. Sir Tom and the son performed a duet of that song and it brought the house down. Check it out. He's a class act.
A master artist. My favorite song of his is I Who Have Nothing. It will blow you away
Not particularly my thing,but you have to say he had/has one hell of a voice,and so much emotion. Truly a master class of singing power. Personally I'm a rocker but I take my hat off to Mr.Jones. I remember watching him as kid on TV and my mum loved him. Nowadays he's on a talent spotting show here in Britain 🇬🇧......and can teach the youngsters a thing or two about singing. Two of his big hits were "Delilah" and "The green green grass oh home". Check them out......you'll not be disappointed.
Check out when Tom sang with John Farnham when they were on tour together in Australia, rocking a cover of AC/DC's "It's A Long Way To The Top [If You Want To Rock And Roll]." Both singers are incredible powerhouses.
Watch Tom also in other duets on his TV show back in 1969... so many awesome performances with top artists of the time like Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, Aretha Franklin, and Ray Charles.
You should definitely check out one of the shows where he sang with Janis Joplin ("Raise Your Hand') and one with Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young ("Long Time Gone").
Tom is phenomenal, loves all kinds of music, is masterful in many genres, and has had many hits, adapting/updating his image and styles over six decades!
Some notable songs include one of his first hits, "It's Not Unusual," and "I Who Have Nothing," "Green, Green Grass Of Home," "Delilah," "She's A Lady," "What's New, Pussycat," and "Thunderball."
More hits came later... such as "Burning Down the House," "Sexbomb," "If I Only Knew," "Burning Hell," "Tower Of Song," and others, including his cover of Bob Dylan's "One More Cup Of Coffee."
Tom is still singing, touring, and recording... and his voice at age 82 is still incredible, rich, and powerful! His most recent album dropped in May of 2021 and shot to No.1 on the UK album charts!
Tom Jones and Janis Joplin...duet on his show...Raise your Hand up...fantastic Performance..
Sir Tom, judge on the Voice, check out a clip still singing, sounds great...
Love Tom, Soul comes in many colors..just like Righteous Brothers...Elvis, ...
Enjoying your Channel 😊
Tom had the big voice as a young child. He was destined to be a world class singer. I don’t think he ever missed a note. Flawless singer ❤
I am also a grandma who loves your channel. Tom Jones was a coal miner from Wales. White guy. My Mom loved his music! ❤
He's Welsh. Still living. In his 80's. Got to see him live and he sounded just like he does on this video. No auto tune back then.
Timeless, Amazing, God given voice. The one and only. Whoever comes close? Just divine. Nobody can hold a candle for Tom. He's the greatest singer ever! Bravo ! Continue to rock dear Tommy!!!
He had his own show and sang with some absolute legends ! Aretha Franklin, Sammy Davis junior, little Richard, need I go on ? 😂
Tom is in his eighties now and one of the judges on The Voice Britain. Check him out on You Tube for that show. He is still singing on the show . By the way Queen E. officially gave the title Sir Tom Jones.
Man he is 80 plus now and still sings at full power, live.
Ahhh Tom Jones, from my home town of Wales. He is still singing now, he's more handsome now and his voice is still on point!
Soul Has No Color. You Know That.
Loved your reaction. You seem like a really nice person. I just saw Sir Tom in concert in September 2022. To quote you, he is still oozing with soul power and swag. Check him out on The Voice UK singing "Cry to Me".
He is still going strong today at 82 & doing concerts, my daughter in law has just seen him & said he was fantastic. ❤️🇬🇧
Hes awesome Green Green Grass of home will rip a tender heart up
Still one of my favourite songs.
Sir Tom Jones is 82 and is currently touring the US. He was on the Voice UK and is still a powerful singer.
I also Love his song "I who have nothing".
This man had some serious Pipes!!
Thank you 👍
Sir Tom spent much of his singing time from 1967 in the USA in Las Vegas. Due to his live work and television shows, for a few decades he neglected his recording career.
The best vocalist of his type the UK has ever produced by far in his genre, and maybe in the top 3 in the world.
Tom Jones is 84 years old I saw him in June 2024 in his show in Chepstow in Wales 🏴and he still sounds the same today , he is a judge on the television a show called the Voice he usually sings a song on the show ,check out the shows and there is a song he sings with Jennifer Hudson won’t say no more you will be amazed.
it's all good! One of my favorites is, "What's up Pussycat".
