Tom Jones was Elvis's favourite singer and he would turn up at Tom's concerts in Las Vegas every night to sing with him or just to listen. Basically Tom has sung with everyone you could think of and always held his own which isn't bad for a bricklayers labourer from South Wales. The man who wrote this song was called Lonnie Donegan and a couple of years ago his son went of the TV show "The Voice" where Tom is a judge and they end up singing this song together and believe me if this version broke you that one will leave you in total turmoil.
