@Hexx ...Thank you so much for reacting to Tom and this emotional song! The legend Tom Jones IS still alive, and will be 82 years old come this June in 2022. Believe it or not, he's still recording and producing amazing music. The latest album he dropped (May of 2021) shot to No.1 on the UK album charts. His voice is deeper and richer in tone now than in his earliest days, moreover he still delivers songs with that incredible power, emotion, and charisma. He was knighted by the Queen of England in 2006 for his service to music. This past summer Tom resumed touring to sold-out crowds after a hiatus due to the pandemic. He also continues as one of the judges/coaches on The Voice UK, where he's served for a number of seasons. Tom loves all kinds of music, as you do, and has ably performed songs from many genres over the years... R&B, jazz, soul, country, rock, pop, blues, reggae, rap, dance, Broadway, and more. You can see he's great with ballads, and he can rock with the best, as well as be soulful. He's never been afraid to take on something new... he's utterly fearless. He had his own music variety show from 1969 to 1971, sang solos and danced for the TV viewing audience and the studio audience, as well as collaborated with top guests he brought on that show, such as Stevie Wonder, Janis Joplin, The Moody Blues, Smokey Robinson, Ella Fitzgerald, Jerry Lee Lewis, Sammy Davis Jr., Ray Charles, John Denver, Wilson Pickett, Dusty Springfield, CSNY (Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young), Little Richard, The Hollies, Joe Cocker, Johnny Cash, and many others. Tom's also done a few films, including appearing as himself in the movie "Mars Attacks," and even appeared in the popular TV sitcom "Fresh Prince of Belair." He's sung title songs for soundtracks for movies such as "What's New, Pussycat" and the James Bond flick "Thunderball." Over the years he's drawn concert crowds at venues large and small all over the world; guested on countless music shows, late night TV, awards shows, and music specials; headlined in Las Vegas; was befriended by artists like Elvis and Frank Sinatra, hosted a music variety series in the early 1980s where he's sung with artists such as Chaka Khan, Tina Turner, Isaac Hayes, Tanya Tucker, and others; taken part in many benefits; and worked on recordings with very gifted music producers, singers, singer/songwriters, and musicians... well-known, cream-of-the-crop artists as well as talented newcomers. He has a huge catalog that includes songs from the early 1960's through today. One of his most popular country hits was the 1966 "Green, Green Grass of Home": kzitem.info/news/bejne/xqCbrpOsqaSoh6w See a whole other side of Tom with his 1969 performance of "Seesaw": kzitem.info/news/bejne/um-q3HVpsXiToWU If you want another taste of a superbly done power ballad by Tom Jones, try "I Who Have Nothing," from 1970: kzitem.info/news/bejne/qm6Hmqqmfmt1dKg As only a Celtic son can, Tom delivers a stunning rendition of the classic, "Danny Boy," in 1974 on The Midnight Special: kzitem.info/news/bejne/s4mZuI2cs3urlY4 Hear his earliest hit and signature song from 1965, "It's Not Unusual," reprised on late night TV in 1986: kzitem.info/news/bejne/w52u1aNtrpidhKg For a great recording session collaborating with Van Morrison (another legend), try Tom Jones in 1991 with "Carrying A Torch": kzitem.info/news/bejne/rZuix4Opi2h_o4Y In 2005, on tour with Australian sensation John Farnham, Tom and John rocked with a cover of AC/DC's "It's A Long Way To The Top (If You Want To Rock and Roll)": kzitem.info/news/bejne/kmelmp54oIxypGk Check out the music video for his cover of Leonard Cohen's "Tower of Song" from Tom's stellar 2010 album Praise and Blame: kzitem.info/news/bejne/lICNz4R8jWKnZZg In a reprise of his 1999 hit "Sex Bomb," Tom sings with German superstar Helene Fischer in 2016: kzitem.info/news/bejne/joOQ2JuOi2lmh6A See Tom urged by The Voice UK audience in 2021 to sing, and he kills the song with an impromptu rendition of "Cry To Me": kzitem.info/news/bejne/wo95m6Wtnp2FYJw Hope you'll be able to react to some of Tom's performances. But even if you don't get around to doing other video reactions of songs he's done, please take time to experience some of his music for yourself. There is so much to enjoy! Tom Jones has blessed listeners for years with his incredible gift of a golden voice and his love of singing. May he continue to stay healthy and in good voice... and add to his legacy with more music and new listeners! broadcast

@@HEDoubleX now that you've been introduced to SIR Tom Jones, yes he is a SIR because he has been knighted. You need to explore more of his music because he has a long discography spanning decades. He's actually a judge on the UK show The Voice. He's in his 80's now and he is still singing a little bit. Take a listen to Delilah next and Try a Little Tenderness... You won't be disappointed. When you first came out he actually had a show called The Tom Jones Show. I grew up watching that I've had a crush on him for a million years. IN MY OWN MIND~HE is my secret boyfriend. IN REALITY though he only knows me as THE DEFENDANT. Trust me...i just feel that "that crazy stalker woman" is really such an ugly phrase for my deep and abiding burning love for him!

Tom is still going sting bro aged 81! This song was written for him by fellow Brit singer/songwriter Lonnie Donegan. This performance from 1967 I believe, Tom’s vocals have seen him sing in many different genres, check out his cover version of Prince’s Kiss in 1988 which he recorded at the invitation of the Art Of Noise. Here he is at aged 70 eleven years ago performing John Lee Hooker’s Burning He’ll, a great bluesy/rock number. Hope you enjoy! kzitem.info/news/bejne/0n-Fnq5qsoFya6w

I was a teen back then & absolutely loved his voice and his singing 🥰 He presently is a judge on The Voice (Britain), he is now about 80 yrs old & can still sing, especially when contestants plead with him to sing one of his songs with them. Also check out The Tom Jones Show & his many guests stars. **As well as check out the beautiful Ms. Dusty Springfield & her incredible library of music ( She was from Britain 🇬🇧 & died quite your from cancer RIP)**💜
