My #1 favorite performance, the voice, the presence, the looks, has it all!❤️❤️😍

Its the Top Of The Ten

The Top

I agree it's top 10, but I believe #1 would be Bobby Hatfield of the Rightious Brothers who sang Unchained Melody on the Andy Williams show in 1965.

I do

She's gorgeous!! :)

Tom & Elvis were buddies and hung out often up until Elvis passed away...

Nah, Elvis was the American Tom Jones.

Tom Jones is Welsh and he is a SIR...he's been knighted. He's also MY "SECRET boyfriend" for many decades. SO secret in fact that in mosf cases he only knows me as the defendant who is caught lurking by his windows that his wife of over 60 years keeps catching! LOL! Hey...don't anybody judge my undying passion folks. I AM nothing if not dedicated to the cause ok? Besides stalker is such a dirty word. 😅

Well, there's Tom and then there's Shirley bassey!

Never too late to come to the otherside... ;)

Male certainly, but you must hear Shirley Bassey.

Why do yanks always fouk a compliment up

Don’t understand the need to state your sexual preference?

i was 15 when jones' first hit, it's not unusual, came out. enjoyed it immensely--as i did many of his songs. had a great voice. but there was an electronic modification-----his microphone. made a powerful song even more so.

Amen💗 🥰♥️🇯🇲🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🕊️🔥✝️

@@brupic8968 All the microphone did was transmit Tom's voice. He honestly didn't even need amplification, it's so strong. But no tuning, no backing tracks, no tricks. Just pure talent.

@@danieldickson8591 it transmitted and if it didn't really make a difference he wouldn't have used it. i've seen many live acts...i heard tony bennett about 30 years ago. he said the venue had great acoustics and turned off his mike. nice but you could tell the difference. same with roy orbison. not denigrating jones, just fact.

He's from Wales. They all sing that good. No God required.

and men.

@MAD GRUMPYMAN every comment of yours makes me want to vomit. Go back to listening to your Gary Glitter albums.

millions more moist

He's made millions more wet......

It’s in six-eight lol 😝

Neil Jenkins yeah powerful yet beautiful

I don't know which one of you two is more stupid. All Welsh men don't sing from the heart and Tom Jones isn't "the only white boy out of 10 billion who can sing." Racist much?

@Michael Weil Has a Welshman myself. do me a favour and look up Welsh male voice choirs which are common throughout Wales and then you will realise that all Welsh people do actually sing from their heart, Wales is known throughout the world as the land of song and poetry.

@Michael Weil It's well known throughout the UK that the Welsh have a love for singing and I say this as an Englishman.Watch the film Zulu and it promotes what is well known about Welsh people. They've always had lots of choirs,a lot to do with coal mining and the camaraderie they shared through very hard times. If you ever get to see a rugby game against Wales and England, you'll see their passion.

I'm welsh and I sing from my lungs listen from my ears and shit from my arse boyo

10 billion white boys ?, only 7,800,000,000 billion people on planet@Michael Weil half of them women . get yer facts right. and all white guys can sing like him we just cba

Agree, TomJones is an incredible singer and performer. Took my wife to see him about ten years ago, he still has the best live voice ever heard, and yes, the women in the audience were still throwing their underwear at him on stage. Doubt anyone will match him in my lifetime. Great reaction btw.

My dad is stronger than your dad!!!

@Seamus Lannon Elvis' favorite singer was Roy Orbison

@Seamus Lannon what a clueless twat.

@Seamus Lannon Are You stupid???👊👹

Seamus Lannon my dad is stronger than your dad

He still sounds amazing at 80.

He’s amazing maybe the best singer ever more than Elvis???

@@ericlevi5729 Tom was good friends with Elvis, they used to spend time together singing and writing songs.

Yes that's Tom Jones he appeared in the Prince of Bel-Air one of the most popular songs he has Out is it's not unusual to be loved by anyone or if not the most popular song

How many today? Simple answer. Less than zero.

Saw him at the MGM Grand a few years ago - he still KILLED - whipped his young band like sled dogs. Afterward we agreed he was STILL the most powerful singer of popular music, with Eddie Vedder in a distant second...

EXACTLY

There are a few.

None!!!

Neither had the singers in the 80s, 90s... Autotune is quite a "new thing" actually.

@Seamus Lannon no way tom is better

@Seamus Lannon to be honest i am not on drugs your idol elvis was next im not fucking deaf ok tom sings better than elvis Presley

@Seamus Lannon ok mate i am not offended but in my opinion tom Jones is better take care bro

For myself I agree with you :) But judging from the responses on your comment (and on other reaction videos) I am starting to think that Elvis fans just spend all their time stalking Tom Jones reactions so they can obsessively fangirl (or boy) over THEIR favourite Elvis :D :D

Not saying better, check out Dick Haymes; Steve Perry is pretty good; Al Jarreau has an instrument for a voice.. ♠ W.G.

saw it,it was cool

Now that's pretty damn cool.

And it was amazing wasn't it? He's now in his eighties(?) and still has a glorious voice.

Saw it..it was incredible.. Son was a great singer too..

Yeah and he's still got it

That sounds like my house growing up my mum loved Tom dad not so much....dad loves Shirley mum not so much lol.

He still sounds freaking fantastic.

@@bigmac51290 yes....those golden belting chords have aged a bit but my god that man can still sing well enough to put most of today's singers to absolute shame

❤️

@Seamus Lannon Depends who's account you read. Which is usually how these things play out. I'm not only talking about Tom and Elvis's account. Elvis obviously isn't here anymore to say his views.

She is exquisite

That was a brilliant night..... remember it well

@Seamus Lannon why are you so angry, did Tom Jones steal your lunch money or something. All I said is that Elvis loved his voice, which is a well documented fact. I never said he was better singer. I think you should really talk to someone about your anger issues oh and there is definitely no need for profanity.

Alex Fletcher oh dear

The truth is this. It's well document that he had a string of affairs while being married for 40 years and allowed himself to be paraded by his masters as a single man! Yes, he had a great voice, but he is not a great man or a nice guy! www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3267126/Lonely-world-wife-Tom-Jones-humiliated-star-cruelly-said-s-lost-spark-rare-poignant-insight-marriage.html But worship your false god all you want, if naievity and ignorance is your goal!!

Oh fuck of with your victimhood lefturd bullshit

he still sells out concerts and was due to tour this year but Covid put paid to that.

@@vtbn53 Shut up arsehole

Thanks for the recommendation Brian.... I live in the Rhondda Vallys, true Welshman and I drive down through Treforest (Tom Jones’s birth place) on my way to work, I’ve had family members who sing in the Treorchy Male Voice Choir, probably the most famous choir in the world.

Nobody can sing like the Welsh, its born into them

1 of my all time faves yeh 😊😊

@Seamus Lannon Seamus, you clearly know nothing. Tom and Elvis were best friends and Tom is famous for women throwing their underwear on stage. Google is your friend, get some education with it.

@Seamus Lannon Wanker Jones, and ofc opinions are like arseholes, and everybody has one, and you are a arsehole....

@Seamus Lannon settle down buddy, i didn't mean to trigger you that heavily and hurt your feelings, I thought about Elvis while I was commenting The operative word was 'SUNG' though when it comes to Elvis he didnt need to sing, they were queued up to lose their panties Pull your head in mate, no need to get so aggressive

That's Right : He's amazing forever.

I saw him in the early 90s and women were still throwing their panties. Telephone numbers written in the gusset😂

Greetings from Sweden to You! ❤🇸🇪

Agreed. Sounds EXACTLY the same.

@@EClark-nu5nr You guys are deaf. He absolutely CANNOT sing like this anymore. He's still amazing but it's impossible to have that kind of power he did in his prime. Imo, the greatest male popular singer ever!

@@abc456f Well, I admit my hearing may have grown worse over the years, but doesn't affect the fact that to me he sounds the same as when I heard him as a kid in the 60s. My brother used to have his records and I would listen to them.

@@EClark-nu5nr I didn't mean literally deaf but to say he sounds EXACTLY the same is ludicrous. I have many cd's of his and have watched many performances on KZfaq, and I've seen him sing on "the Voice." His current singing ability is nowhere near what it was. He still had it in his fifties and even sixties, but when he got into his seventies, the decline was clearly obvious. It's not a knock on the man, I consider him the greatest male popular singer ever. But just like he can't dance like he did, neither can he sing. Let's be real, please. It happens to all of them. Paul McCartney, Elton John...they can't hit the high notes anymore and they tend to speak alot of the lyrics to get around the fact that their voices are showing their age. I love Tom Jones and always will. But I'm not so blinded by my admiration of his talent that I refuse to admit the obvious, he DOES NOT sound exactly the same.

@@abc456f With all due respect and civility meant to you, 1) we're talking about a recording here. So it's ENTIRELY plausible that he sounds today as he did 20 or thirty years ago. Depending, of course, on when the recording was first played. 2) You're taking this entirely way too literally. It's physically IMPOSSIBLE to sound EXACTLY as you did even five minutes ago let alone 20 or 30 years, and you're talking about memories, not exactly a science. So all I'm saying that in my mind he sounds exactly as he did when I was a kid. Fair enough?

One of these days I'm going to get around to reading that. It's in one of my bookcases.

His full name is Tom Jones Woodward
