Peter..Sir Tom Jones is great...Your fine wrote the song for him was greater.... The passing of your and he relives the memory and added you in hie memoir that's truely great.. The greatest You sang with him. The Future... The Present ..and The Past... What's the answer... Memories..and Mindset.. All In #1

[@adshorts247]

The way he looks at peter was priceless. It shows how much he missed his friend. His tearfully singing and very emotional while doing it.

[@joe2125]

the most amazing part of this for me is that Tom Jones’ voice is 99% in tact from when he was in his 20’s. Jesus, ive never heard an 80 year old sound that good. and with zero prep and totally spontaneous

[@peterdoneganmusic]

Oh man! His voice might actually be richer now

[@davidcochran6291]

Well there was Tony Bennett who was recording albums with current artists until he was almost 90. But Tony didn't do the things Tom has done. Though I am sure Tony created quite a swath as he has moved through his life. To hear Sir Tom's voice even for a little bit was a thrill. The time he has spent on that show is some of the best on TV. In fact it is really the only reason I watch. I watch the kids version quite a bit because it hasn't yet become sullied. And every now and then you find a Gracie-Jayne Fitzgerald from Sir Toms stomping grounds, Wales. She is going to be special. It would be a fun thing to have Tom sing with Gracie.

[@peterdoneganmusic]

david cochran i’ll have to check her out. Thanks for that. Have you heard the new single yet? It’s #11 in the Heritage Charts: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXevZXSfja-ffLs

[@steveepperson6773]

Because there’s only 1 Tom Jones ♥️

[@loochboy]

Your dad wrote this song?!? Holy crap, I love this song, this is one of Tom's best! Wow...I used to see your dad on the Irish Rovers tv show, I just thought of him as a skiffle musician-I have been taken to music school. Thanks for sharing this story!

[@tomholland3806]

His father Lonnie wrote it indeed. When Lonnie brought the single out it wasn't a succes. (1962) At some point Tom Jones heard about the song and asked Lonnie if he could bring it out as a single as well. (since no one knew Lonnie even brought it out. Tom Jones brought it out in 1967 and it hit number 2 in the charts. In 1976 Elvis Presley brought this song out with permission of Lonnie as well (since he heard Tom Jones singing it and Tom and Elvis knew each other).

[@chrisclose7793]

I have to be perfectly honest that this is one of the best duets I've heard in a long time and what a fitting tribute to your dad ,Tom jones is a national treasure

[@AIRBORNE309]

I agree

[@7777shayna]

Well Peter I showed it to my 87 years old Dad and my 81 year old Mother the other day, both massive Tom Jones fans from back when he started in the 60’s, and they both cried, and it was more than just one drop. Happy for you, and you killed it!

[@laurenkilgannon4401]

Peter, I remember being very young and my Grandad taking me to my first ever live concert to see your dad! At the time I believed I was his biggest fan! I probably was his youngest seeing as I'm only 26 now! I remember you coming on the stage and singing before your dad came on and I was just amazed the whole night and for weeks after. Your dad was a massive part of me growing up much to my mother's dismay wondering why I couldn't grow up like a normal kid and listen to the spice girls. Instead I was blasting out all of Lonnie's classics 🤣. When this was first broadcast he rang me straight away and said "get the voice on Peter is singing!" he didn't even need to say any more I knew who he was talking about straight away! My grandad passed away on 18/09/20 and we are having one of your dad's songs at his funeral next month. My tribute to him as we used to sing them all the time together. Even through his dementia I'd ask him if he wanted to sing Lonnie with me and it would all come back to him! Thank you to you and your dad for keeping my bond with my grandad as strong as it was right up until his last day. ❤️

[@peterdoneganmusic]

Lauren Kilgannon awww 😊 thank you so much for that lovely message. I really do enjoy hearing that really touching story. So sorry for your loss but at least you have such wonderful memories to carry with you in your heart. Hopefully once this pandemic is easing away we’ll get to see each other again at a gig.

[@cathmcphail6220]

Tom Jones is still fortunate enough to have the most amazing voice, there has never been anyone to rival his rich, strong passionate voice, the man is a TRUE LIVING LEGEND, Why doesnt he get the recognition he truly deserves, he has been giving us all such pleasure for 50 plus years now and has proved he can sing anything and put his own mark on songs. Why the heck hasnt he been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame????

[@peterdoneganmusic]

He gets recognition from all of us mate.

[@allisonhadolt6142]

Disappointed when i found out he has a son he does not wish to acknowledge. Put me right off him

[@zonachoke]

@@peterdoneganmusic How I would surmise Jones' recognition to the extent I would have the knowledge to comment: In the US, Tom Jones has his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame., which I find suitable in that his impact in the States has been as a solid broad-strokes entertainer moreso than someone who would identify himself as or be identified by others as "Rock & Roll" In the UK -- Sir Tom IS the British Elvis, and it's not even up for debate. In the Kingdom, he transcends entertainment and rises to the level of cultural icon. BTW, to call your father the British Hank Williams would not be hyperbolic -- the nature and volume of his songwriting plus his influence over what became the British Invasion merits favorable comparison. I know you're diligently carrying on his legacy as you chart your own musical path.

Been a Lonnie Donnegan fan all of my life. My dad taught me about him and played his music, I'm now 66 and still listen to him. You and Sir Tom were absolutely brilliant, I still watch that incredible moment on the Voice and it will always remain one of the best PERFORMANCES EVER. Well done to you. Your dad was a very special person and a marvellous performer. I've just watched the KZbin video of him with Chas and Dave, he was timeless and a true gentleman. God bless.

[@alancarlyon3928]

Sir Tom Jones such a gentleman and so was you Dad and am sure Tom felt just as honoured to sing the song your Father wrote for him! Good luck young man!

[@garybell9878]

I like to see Tom and Peter D to record this song as a duo when this covid-19 eases up I would download it

[@cliffright1142]

I will never forget that performance Peter. I never really appreciated TJ until later in years. He was the voice for sure in the sixties and seventies when it came to depth. Your Dad’s song sung by Tom has become one of my all time favorites and I’m betting there are great things in store for you as well. Life goes by so fast that, we sometimes forget to take time to embrace all the ups and downs. At seventy three I realize that more now than ever before. Thank you for your talent and thank you for enlightening us on the full story. Best of luck to you and God bless you and your family.

[@Kitch-hu7tm]

The entire thing was amazing. Who you were, who Tom was and your Dad's connection. How it went down is a great moment in TV history.

[@clairesheppy8052]

Some people at the time queried as to whether this had been rehearsed. I can confirm categorically that it was not. I know Ben, who is bassist with the Voice band, and having seen the performance myself, I specifically asked him if it had been rehearsed and he confirmed that it definitely had not been. It was indeed a truly magical moment, and especially so for me as Lonnie Donegan was one of the people who gave me a lifelong love of contemporary music.

[@pamelaroberts4834]

I had the great privilege to know Lonnie and he would be so proud that Tom Jones sang his song great and so proud

[@Isleofskye]

I really like Peter. Lovely Guy. Come on though Peter looks the image of Lonnie and Sir Tom is surprised? lol ALSO, Lonnie did NOT write the song for Sir Tom. Sir Tom made it his own, fantastically but this song was written a year or two while Sir Tom was playing with The Tommy Scott Orchestra in Wales and not widely known. haha.......................Makes a good story though..:)

[@glynnjones007]

This was TV gold, what a magical moment! It took ages before my tears stopped. Seeing Peter's mum so emotional was beautiful. A credit to Lonnie, God bless you Peter, you ARE the winner to me.

[@peterdoneganmusic]

Glynn Jones oh man! Glynn, that is such a wonderful thing to say. For days afterwards I could believe it wasn’t a dream.

[@rw8733]

I truly believe that things "come around". Your dad wrote a great song for him and Sir Tom was able to "give back" to you, Lonnie's son, years later. It was beautiful to watch. I'd love to see the whole thing.

The song I'll Never Fall in Love Again is my grandfather's favorite song ever recorded by Sir Tom Jones. And we are surprised that you're the son of the writer of that beautiful song. Because my grandfather always sang that song, it passes through to our generation to sing it, and now we are the one who I think only sings old songs here in my place. I want to share it more to younger age even I am a teenager. A very wonderful moment even it is a year after I saw this video. This sends some love from the Philippines 🇵🇭 ❤.

Tom Jones was visibly choked up when he sang. It was one of the most touching moments I've ever witnessed on the show. He came close to breaking down and at that moment I knew this was not contrived or pre planned but rather spontaneous. That's what made it special.

[@MrEvangelist777]

This took me back to another age. The great Lonnie Donegan, "My ol' mans a dustman, "Does ya chewing gum, Battle of New Orleans, Rock Island Line. Never fall in love again is the best Tom Jones single ever, and shows Lonnies talent as a truly great songwriter. That was an age of innocence that I loved. Lonnie would come on the old black/white television, and we would all get up and start a sing-along, Lonnie was a great favourite in our house. RIP Lonnie.

[@floridagal9542]

I am so surprised at the strength of Tom Jones’ voice. Usually, at that age, your lungs just can’t fill up enough to hold notes, as his did. I loved him wayyyy back when, ( because I’m old enough to remember and appreciate him) and I love him now! I’m also glad that I grew up with great music and wonderful singers, who are still popular today and still rockin’ it 50/years later! I really don’t think all this crappy rap stuff will stand the test of time.

I live Las Vegas,but travelled back to London around the end of 2001, Christmas time,And when i returned 3wks later an "Aussie"Pal of mine told me,he had got me a ticket for Tom Jones(he was performing at the MGM Casino&hotel)and 2b honest I really did'nt know what to expect!(I had always liked him as a Kid,but thought he might be a spent force&had just got a little to old!)but how wrong was i!.A fantastic night was had by all,and he really is the consumate showman!!.Sometimes it's nice to be wrong!

This was one of THE BEST EVER MOMENTS ON THE VOICE! ❤️

[@peterdoneganmusic]

[@lindamay3759]

@@peterdoneganmusic I am Sri Lankan but live in Singapore. I saw another performance of Sir Toms same song and was wondering if it was you that was playing the piano, it was outdoors and then someone else replied saying it wasn’t you!

I said it when the moment happened and I will say it again here-that was a truly incredible moment that I know you and Tom will cherish forever!

[@lynkent677]

A beautiful thing....Son/Father/Tom Jones...Just Awesome to witness!

[@rw8733]

I'm sure it meant a lot to Tom too.

[@christophertyler3425]

Awesome...Backing the greatest popular singer with the exception of Elvis! Loved you both!

[@danomite22]

One of the best bucket list moments ever! Love the harmonies, especially the ending!

[@peterdoneganmusic]

Thanks Dan. Adrenaline can get you through some high notes! 😂 Where do you hail from?

[@danomite22]

I'm from Edmonton Alberta Canada. Have performed for most of my life. I grew up in a musical household as well. Not to your level but music is a very important part of our lives. Have carried down the tradition to my kids as well. Thank you for the reply and I wish you nothing but success and happiness.

[@peterdoneganmusic]

@@danomite22 god bless you. And the same to you. You reckon they’d like my music in Alberta? I don’t know if you’ve heard it; www.peterdonegan.com

[@danomite22]

@@peterdoneganmusic I wanted to listen to more of your original music before answering. Edmonton has a very eclectic music scene. They really embrace all types. Several medium size venues in Edmonton. The Winspear Centre and the Jubilee Auditorium. Or a suburb called Sherwood Park that has a more intimate Theatre based stage that's seats 500 to 550 called Festival Place. Beautiful venue with amazing acoustics! I have seen several artists perform there and have also had the opportunity to perform there myself. I think you could have a great time here. Hope that helps. Great chatting with you.

[@nickb5391]

Peter, you sound just like your dad, he bought us so much joy, your dad would be so proud of you especially dueting with Tom with one of your dads songs

[@peterdoneganmusic]

So glad you enjoyed it Nick. It was a moment I’ll never forget. Where are you from?

[@DavidTransformer]

My favourite moment of the show. Simply brilliant duet of a wonderful song.

[@gilyat]

He is the SPIT of his dad! I saw Lonnie Donegan when I was about 16

[@StellasScrappyCrafts]

I don't know how many times I have played this. Every time I go on youtube that episode pops up and I can't resist listening to it again. Beautiful song. from Brisbane Australia. x

[@peterdoneganmusic]

Thank you so much 😊

[@joshuawoo9521]

It is amazing when a son can reach the same plain as his father. The connection between a man and his son transcends so many things...... Congrats.

[@peterdoneganmusic]

That is so true. A love and miss my father every day. Thanks 🙏 for the lovely message. Where you from Josh?

[@harrycobeans]

My all time favourite moment on The Voice.

[@cliveanthonytraverse3271]

Great and moving moment , my dad was a singer and even now at 55 i am still trying to follow in his footsteps , never too late my friend !

[@TalesFromTheWoods]

What a fantastic moment, and what a fantastic legacy from your dad.

[@peterdoneganmusic]

Tales From The Woods it really is. Glad you enjoyed the song. Have you heard my new single? open.spotify.com/track/6J1ahqR4QvwnCWxnEuAOyq?si=x_y1Uo8jR7W2ohCxco6dgA

[@lilibethpalian4328]

I love his songs,even now I always sing all of his memorable songs...

[@peterdoneganmusic]

lilibeth palian thank you 🙏

[@kathleencole3355]

Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous. I love Tom and I also love Peter .♥️❤️ . Saw Peter last year in the Radcliffe Hotel Torque. Sooooo lovely 😊

[@ruralrob228]

I've lost count of the number of times I have seen this ,it's just brilliant! I think it's a compliment really that people ( and I admit I was one of them ) thought it had been rehearsed in someway as it shows what great musicians/singers you are to pull that off.I had heard the song before ,but this version is fantastic. All the best

[@belojudas25]

What a beautiful moment. Was so great to see you both on stage. Wow Tom rocks and so do you Peter What a performance!!!!

[@1987garywilson]

BEST STORY ON ANY VOICE For SURE!!! Love the duet... watched repeatedly in awe of Sir Tom Jones and his Vocals. Watched his hit back in the day... now I get why these people are Mentors and he is a legend.

[@TeriLaFaye]

I have that performance saved in my favorites and play it all the time. Some things are best in the spur of the moment. It was/is absolutely beautiful! and you so well deserved it.

[@peterdoneganmusic]

Teri LaFaye Pistol Poet TM That is an awesome thing to say, thank you! I am flattered that you have it in your playlist.

[@TeriLaFaye]

@@peterdoneganmusic I love it! You did the harmony so well with him and because it was so 'unplanned,' it made it better. I truly admire people who perform with so much heart. So I guess you could call me a fan because you are not only in my 'favorites,' but you are in the playlist that is called 'worth watching.' Oh, and I subscribed to you here too. woohoo!

[@thomasallison4257]

Tom JONES still look great at 79 year old

[@deedeegreen8338]

I love this song. I've loved it since I was a young teen. Tom's voice is so soulful and combined with the lyrics, was for me, the perfect song. When I got older, the lyrics made a whole lot of sense. Heartbreak is never easy and you think you'll never fall in love again, because it is too painful. I didn't know the song was written for Tom. I was too young when it first came out. I can't imagine what a high it would be to sing with Sir Tom. You also have a lovely voice.

[@peterdoneganmusic]

deedee green it truly was a huge high👍 Thanks so much for that lovely message. Have you heard the new single yet? It’s #11 in the Heritage Charts: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXevZXSfja-ffLs

[@poodlegirl55]

It was obviously emotional for Tom too. It was a great moment.

[@louisnjulie1685]

I remember dancing to this song at 11 years old while watching Tom Jones on TV in America 1967. Still LOVE this song. 💕

[@peterdoneganmusic]

Louis N Julie awww thats such a beautiful memory

[@thebfgpodcast]

Pete Donegan Hi I just found your channel and I am a big fan I Saw the original video with Tom and I was wondering whether you could get access or do you have access to the unedited version that you could put all do you have it on the channel I would really like to hear the full version

[@ytpick]

40 years on operatic/ concert stages in europe & Australia , & this was one of the most touching, historic moments I've ever seen. So much Respect for Sir Tom, & performance with him-Brilliant. Good luck Peter.
