I was 11 in 1970 and the first time I saw him on tv. I just came from Cuba that year. I was so impress by his voice and his dancing and later in 1997 saw him in Las Vegas performing, his voice was the same then as it is now.❤

@@Metalheaddru He has that effect on everyone cuz his music HITS you in your heart. The lyrics are deep and his orchestra he has is phenomenal. He's one of those singers that when he leaves the stage. He HAS left all of what he has to give OF himself to his audience ON that stage. I've been a BIG fan from a kid when my mother loved him. I grew up watching the Tom Jones show when it first aired. My parents went a few times to see him. I live out on Long Island NY. But check your commented and I WILL guarantee that no matter where anyone comes from OR what era. They'll all say the same thing if yhey saw hon~THERE IS NO SUCH THING as a bad show when you go to see him. He is pure emotions and he gives it his all. His voice IS one of a kind~his is known AS "The Voice" BTW way back from when he first entered show business. You can still get tickets to go see him. He is 80 YRS OLD now AND STILL packing stadiums. Actually he is SIR Tom Jones...he was knighted by the Queen for his long standing contribution to the arts through his music many years ago. You have opened something of a Pandoras box with his collection because it spans a lot of eras. As a former singer and a fan...I'm SO happy you discovered him. I'm new to your channel here so I haven't found it yet if you've covered his song DELILAH, Ill keep looking. But if you haven't...PLEASE check that song out next ok? That video was from his tv show~I think you'll really enjoy it. Once you go old school with a singer who's got a NATURAL 3 octave range it's a whole other world. Younger listeners are used to autotune...that's partly what blows their mind when they get hit with real talent. You'll take notice of things in other videos...like in his I'll Never Love Again. He moves forward into and then a bit back off again of his mic. THAT IS old school autotune baby LOL! You know how mant times he stood in frpnt OF that mic and learned at which WORD to move forward and WHICH syllable to move back half a step OR tilt his head so it didn't sound off key? When you hear music like this...this is a craving you have in your heart cuz it's pure. THAT IS WHY ppl who do reactions always get emotional. There is no shame in having feelings over music. That IS what music was created for, from rhe beggining of time. It was made to bring ppl together and communicate messages and tell a story. Your job is to open your heart FULLY to receive it okay? Peace brother 😉❤😎

I swear no judgement, no shade, "background instruments" in this case is called an orchestra. Its a whole lot of excellent musicians coming together at the same time for the same purpose. An orchestra is a biiiiig deal, that is capable or producing a biiiiig sound and can evoke biiiig emotions. IMHO everyone should hear a live orchestra at least once in their life. Great advice I was given and I'm passing it on.

Then, after the show those same men would be saying, "That was really good. We're going to come back to see Tom next year." Notice the first name basis. He was an outstanding performer who knew how to manipulate his audience. Still has an amazing voice.

That song has feelings that pull you. It hits you big time if you have ever been in love . It's been playing in my head constantly for 2 days. He was friends with Elvis & I'm a die hard Elvis fan. Them two was friends & them two in a concert would have been a helluva show. One open the other close. Both have a one of a kind voice. Will never be duplicated.

I have a suggestion for you. Don’t study them, don’t ask anyone. Just watch it without knowing a dang thing. You’ll need to run to a gas station first, to get a pack of cigs though, because you’ll want to smoke one afterwards because it’s so sexy! I’m not kidding! Joe Bonamassa and Beth Hart “I’ll Take Care Of You.” It’s one of the steamiest songs I’ve ever heard. Her voice becomes and instrument, and his instrument (the guitar) becomes his voice. It’s WILD! I promise you’ll dig it! BIG TIME!
