Hello Beautiful Humans!

Sir Tom Jones is the best ever male vocalist, his power, range, tone and emotion was second to none. Even now in his 80’s he can still sing amazing well. A rare talent!

[@DNAConsultingDetectives]

We went to see him in concert in 2018. He can still do his thing! Not as much dancing as he use to do, but still a commanding vocalist!

[@tedtratt9553]

That song was written by Lonnie Donegan of skiffle fame which makes it more surprising. At least I think so. Tom has reenacted it on The Voice with Lonnie's son. Well worth a listen.

[@tomhansen4576]

My wife and I saw Tom Jones live in Las Vegas in 1973. Knowing he had one of the most powerful voices ever, we were blown away that he performed more than 30 songs during his two hour plus show, and yet he was just as powerful and clear at the end as was when he started. Truly was one the best performances we had ever seen from any singer. At the end, the ladies were flinging their bras, panties, and flowers onto the stage.

[@sdHansy]

Growing up in the 90s and 00s, all I knew from Tom Jones, was "Sex Bomb", which I've always disliked. That, "Kiss" and a few other songs were basically the only songs of his I knew. Then I discovered this live performance about a year ago. I was stunned. Holy shit, the man could sing! And with such power. I also, only a year or two ago, realised how insane "The BeeGees" were. - Totally unrelated, but still. Only knew them from "Staying Alive"

[@dontherealartist]

ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?! Was your wife ONE OF THEM?! WHAT were you THINKING?!

[@tomhansen4576]

@@sdHansy The 60s, 70's, and 80's was the greatest era of music. It was like every talented singer and musician in the world converged to display their awesome talents during that period of time. I suggest that you explore the music of that era of the many great bands and solo artists which frankly just does not exist today.

[@rampar77]

I saw Tom in the old MGM Vegas in early 70s and in Greek Theatre in Los Angles in 80s. My favorite was Delilah.They were the best performances I have even seen. His music, dancing and the orchestra were unbelievable.

[@NevynAtAll42]

73 is the year that I was born, but as the youngest of 6 I had my older sibling's music growing up, so I listened to all sorts, including Tom Jones, and I love it all. My musical taste is extremely eclectic, from classical to metal. Personally, I've always loved 'green green grass of home' for some reason, but all of Tom Jones, and so many other artists, is awesome.

As a 60+ male, I can honestly say I was never a Tom Jones fan - but - I'm smart enough to know quality when I hear it. All these crooner's from the past were there for a reason - they all had what it takes. You didn't get into the big show back then without merit.

[@michaelasay8587]

[@sometimeslyrical]

You can't put Tom Jones in a box. He does way more than what's considered crooning. Of course, he's masterful at love songs, power ballads, and pop tunes... but with that superb voice and control, and his love for a wide range of music, he's done amazing performances in many genres. And he is still performing today with that powerful and rich instrument of his, mad skills, astounding charisma, and a lifetime of experience giving every performance his all!

Tom Jones (by the actions of Queen of England his legal name is now Sir Tom Jones) is 82 years old now and yet he still does concerts every once in a while including in Las Vegas and he has been and is the lead judge on The Voice UK and at times sings while waiting on another contestant and the entire crowd and all the other judges go absolutely crazy good listening to him.

[@PaulMathias1]

In August 1974, Elvis gave a big introduction to Tom Jones, who was catching one of his shows: 'There's somebody in the audience I'd like you meet. To me ... he's my favourite singer. He's one of the greatest performers I've ever seen, and the greatest voice, Tom Jones.

[@joeyrobison6629]

My mother, aunts, and older female cousins loved Tom Jones back in the day. His charisma appealed to the women and he reacted accordingly. He had a show on television, "This Is Tom Jones", and he always kissed the ladies on the front row in the audience while performing. Women would toss their underwear onto the stage as he was singing.

[@sometimeslyrical]

Still has that special something!

[@rb-ex]

ya you totally get it, darling. like you said, the moment he starts singing he just radiates uncompromised masculine power and confidence, and you just know this is gonna be great. the way he attacks a note at full power and hits it pitch-perfect-- that is something many opera singers cannot do. many singers stand like they're giving a lecture, but tom jones has more of a fighter's stance, drawing power from the floor, bring it up to his diaphragm, and it rises from there flowing into all kinds of tonality and dynamic expression. he's an awesome ladies man and a consummate vocal artist the likes of which we will never see again

Nice to see you reacting to some of the classic singers from the 60's & 70's. Tom Jones is a Welsh singer who has one of the smoothest powerful voices around. And he was a showman too, in fact he was a big heart-throb with the ladies. He has so many hits such as "It's Not Unusual", "What's New Pussycat?", "Green, Green Grass of Home", "Delilah", "She's a Lady". He covers a lot of genres. Hope you will look into more of them. He is still performing & is a coach on "The Voice" UK version. He also had a variety show from 69 - 71 & had some of the biggest music stars at the time.

Tom is a legend. Now Sir Tom Jones. His real name is Tom Woodward but he has gone under Jones since the start. His voice is so powerful he often broke microphones in the 60s to 80s.

He is a mentor on the UK the Voice and often does impromptu songs during auditions.

[@flameofelijah]

Billboard Magazine rated this as the 2nd greatest live performance of the 1960's ( behind The Righteous brothers Bobby Hatfield singing, ' Unchained Melody ' on the Andy Williams Show at # 1. ) Jones, like Bob by Hatfield was nicknamed, ' 1-take Tom ' because he always nailed it on the 1st take, whether it was in the studio or when he sang a song live like this that was being recorded. Btw, Jones NEVER had a vocal lesson. Keep in mind, in the 1960's, there was NO autotune. Jones killed it EVERY time he sang

[@davidwalker5054]

I used to think Tom was a bland non threatening radio freindly ballard singer. But i got bitchslapped. This is the best live vocal performance i have ever heard

Good morning Patricia it seems like the rock and roll Hall of Fame is a joke.

So Tom Jones definitely should be in the Hall of Fame but he's not either and I don't get it politics kills me. Have a great day young lady. God bless

[@user-ne3kq9cq4m]

This song was written for him by the late great Lonnie Donegan. Tom Jones as a vocal coach on "The Voice" heard a singer on the show that he recognised. It was the son of LD.

[@garydoyle7155]

that song was written by Lonnie Donegan who was a well known singer in England himself which came to light on the Voice UK when Lonnie's son Peter was a contestant and Tom was the sole coach to turn for him. So when Peter introduced himself Tom asks him if he is any relation to Lonnie Donegan and Peter says "that's my Dad" and Sir Tom answers with " no - - not really " shocked that this is his old friend's son. Tom and Lonnie actually did play out together and of course Lonnie had written Tom's big hit I'll Never Fall In Love Again for him so Tom asks Peter if he knows the song and the Peter and Tom do an impromptu concert together - - if you use Peter Donegan its easy to find on You Tube

Tom Jones was underrated for the day because of big names (The Beatles, etc.) that were popular at the same time. But his voice was truly one of the very best ever. Check out some of his other songs, like "Delilah", "Without Love", and "I Who Have Nothing" (you’ll be glad you did). You may want to also do some reaction videos on Engelbert Humperdinck, another gentleman with an incredible voice that was popular around the same time as Tom.

Well, he was hardly "underrated" 🙄 He was massively successful, had a string of big hits, had a very successful tv show, was widely respected and loved, etc...

He had to work in the shadow of Tom a bit but still a magnificent singer. Another , of course, was Frankie Vaughan.

[@alexfletcher5192]

The mighty king of the valleys is still semi-active in the business in his 80's and, while dented by age, his voice can still flatten a lot of the opposition.

[@chriswhyte8032]

Just a little short history. Tom Jones was a coal miner in Wales as a young man. On Saturday nights in the local town pub, Tom would be encouraged to sing all night for free beer. Someone (a talent scout) spotted him in the pub one night and suggested that he audition for a record company. He made 'It's Not Unusual' and a new star was born. In the late sixties he had a weekly variety show on BBC tv and it was the best show on the air. Today, in his eighties, Tom can still sing all of his hits and they sound just as good as they did years ago. A real artist!

[@Sometimes-even-lyrical]

@Chris Whyte ...Just a few corrections.... Tom's father was a coal miner, but Tom never worked in the mines. Tom contracted tuberculosis about the age of 11 or 12, and was confined at home for two years recovering. He wasn't supposed to sing or talk or go out to school or play with his friends during that time. He had regularly sung at school and chapel as a lad, and he loved to sing. It was always his dream to be a singer, but most youth there ended up becoming coal miners at a young age. However, the doctors made it very clear to his parents that Tom must never go to work in the mines. It would kill him. So, by 15 he was working odd jobs, but never did go down in the mines. Tom married at age 16, and with a baby on the way he went to work in construction, had a job in a glove factory, and also sold vacuum cleaners door-to-door to support his little family. But it still was his dream to be a singer, and sang most evenings and weekends in the workingmen's clubs and pubs. Tom eventually was heard by a musician and business man from London who's happened to be visiting family near where Tom was singing. That man realized Tom has an amazing voice and masculine appeal. He struck up a conversation with Tom and convinced Tom (and himself) that he could manage Tom's career. So Gordon Mills became Tom's manager and brought him to London. He also wrote the song that became Tom's big break, "It's Not Unusual."

When it comes to Tom Jones I’m still speechless! This is ur first seeing him, u know what it was like seeing him for the first time at 7 yrs old on ur bday. I’m just about 60 & I remember it like yesterday. It was all planned & I mainly was only child there, he sang couple songs & after he announced someone’s bday then he came straight over to me. He asked questions & I told him I was 7 he asked my dad something then he leaned over gave me a kiss on my lips & lol took a sip of my drink & sent more over then got up sang happy Birthday. After that he sang this song & green grass of home one of my favorites. He is a great person and artist. Have a lovely day and night Ciao

Thanks, Schnell. Tom Jones' vibrato and control is iconic. Ironically, I think the modern equivalent is Angelina Jordan -- like TJ, she sustains vibrato and focal fry from chest voice to head voice. This ability creates enormous emotional connection with the audience.

The Welsh people are known for their singing voices and sir Tom is no exception he sings with such passion power and heart and of coase charisma true talent great reaction to a wonderful performer and a great guy

[@kennethlavalle1608]

I saw Tom Jones sing a couple of weeks ago, now 83 years old (here he was 27). He sounds as good today. 🎤🎶He's a legend.

[@tonyweber8077]

I love your reaction, I'm from that era and love Tom Jones and watching you react to this is amazing, I've always felt the same way.

[@edintexas]

I'm sure you will be excited to know .......In 2006 Jones was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II. His 2010 album Praise & Blame was a mix of gospel, blues, spirituals, and folk music and earned him stellar reviews, and his Spirit in the Room (2012)-covers of songs by musicians such as Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen, and Paul Simon-was also well received.

This was recorded from his US television show. There were some amazing duets there as well.

That's the most accurate description of a blown away woman to Tom's greatness.

[@michaeldecker3480]

This is the reason he is SIR Tom Jones.

[@jdc7923]

Tom was a headliner at one (maybe more than one) of the Las Vegas hotel casinos for many years. I remember his name in huge letters on a sign in front of the casino. I don't remember which property it was. I do recall he was known as one of the singers who often had room keys or intimate articles of women's clothing thrown to him on stage when he sang.

[@supasoulproductions]

Tom has just dropped a new album at 81 years of age and saying that he still has it is an understatement, Many will request his big hits from years ago...I will advocate for the fairly recent live studio version of Burning Hell!! (The vid is called Tom Jones Live - Burning Hell session)

[@alienlifeform7490]

It's amazing when a singer can make the "water's flow". Sweetest reaction. : )

[@lavadamorrison4569]

I was such a fan back in the day. He and Elvis were the two singers I could scream over. So beautiful and his voice is stunning.

[@vanessamancini4846]

Totally live and stripped back. Not an auto tune in sight!

[@bafongue1]

An absolute stud! A Gift from God to all of us! Great voice!!

[@jahjr20021]

I was 19 when this song came out, I’m 75 now and I love watching every woman melt at this song!

[@davidpenney2334]

Toms voice no angel could replicate...Nothing compares....

[@Opa_Andre]

@Schnell Jordan - thank you very much for your reaction! I really love Tom Jones and have so many memories about his songs. Even more impressive is the blind audition of "the voice" in 2018 when Tom sang the song again with Peter, the son of Lonnie Donegan, who wrote this song for Tom Jones. Tom proves in the audition that he still does have his magic voice. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4TSoZSqp5t0pac

[@luigitempini7789]

Tom Jones was an idol of my youth....so happy when i learnt " Delilah" ! Great reaction as usual!

[@kindalikeu.....5948]

STOP. CAN WE JUST HEAR HIM THREW!!!!. THANK YOU💕🦋

[@leonardbellinger5223]

Just how he captivated you he did everyone, his voice was and is one of the best crooners of our time and he swept the scene when he performed women just totally loved him.

[@13aBOC]

this is how real people sing!

[@wagonmaster1974]

Schnell got twitterpated!! Tom said, once in an interview, "I don't get flowers. What litters my stage is panties and room keys." How sad for him... Fantastic voice. Lots of charisma. Many ladies through the years have swooned.

[@AnthonyT50]

Tom was (maybe still is) the consumate swordsman!

[@Diggerdog2nd]

Growing up in the 70's I heard Tom Jones all the time cause my Mom sure loved her some T.J.

[@MustafaCeyhan1956]

Awesome reaction to an awesome singer and a song. Schnell is reacting as naturally as the Master is performing, with her sympathetic expression and lovely smile on her face!👍♥️

[@AndySmith-lq2di]

TOM IS THE MAN
