[@alancoverdale713]

Such an emotional track and a tribute to the people that fell on the D DAY landing

[@ginfluckyk9347]

MEE TOO ❤😢

[@ginfluckyk9347]

THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORDS 😮😢❤

[@adamjbgames]

Sang it for his wife who was dying from cancer orignally, this was heartbreaking 😭

[@camerartus]

😢😭

[@janicekennan6159]

Yes he spoke about this on The voice before he sung it 😊

[@FayJoines]

Tom is the best singer of all times to be 84 year

[@chrisswygert7907]

Absolutely

[@derekgower875]

This is the beat I've heard sir Tom Jones sing with such passion and feeling, well done SIR TOM.

[@kalayne6713]

It's a song about his late wife, who asked him not to crumble as she died. Despite all his womanising, he loved her and she him. We all deserve the right to a love that works for us. Bless you, Tom. The old men felt your emotion and memories.Thank you. From Kaye, Australia.

[@CindyM372]

He is the best voice, he also stands for our service people, one of whom is our son who served as a Royal Marine in Afghanistan and two tours in Iraq where he was shot and luckily survived!!❤❤

[@Kitch-hu7tm]

The perfect song, at this time, sung by the perfect voice. He captures the emotion and passion of the moment. This song and version should become the official song of Remembrance Day.

[@dianerogers8805]

Perfect song for this occasion sung by a fantastic singer..God bless all the fallen and the veterans that came home.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Djm8520]

AND, he was singing ON his 84th Birthday!

[@gdreading9088]

This should be shown in all of our schools and then explained to our younger generation, many of them have no idea of what their grandfathers and great grandfathers went through.

[@013doogie]

You are absolutely right, the present generation mostly seem oblivious to the past and should be made to understand through schooling just exactly what was sacrificed by those mostly very young people so that we all have the luxury of freedom, great comment

[@alidabaxter5849]

I could see that the veterans were moved to tears by this song too. It was sung from the heart, truly beautifully, and deeply appreciated.

[@martincolclough4387]

Mr Tom Jones, absolutely beautiful song. Thank you😢😢😢

[@user-gh6hu6pl6y]

That is the💕❣️🩵💙💔very best I have heard Tom Jones sing💫💫💫WOW✌️❣️ever

One of the vets was singing the last few words with him. I can’t stop playing it over and over and crying. 🇦🇺

Absolutely stunning❣️thank sooo much Sir Tom✌️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️I love it👌👌👌👌xxxx

[@shirleygirvan]

What a wonderful song for the occasion but understand this was about his lovely wife Linda, wonderful guy

[@lh3557]

'Lovely Guy'!! Are you having a giraffe?? He was constantly unfaithful to her, humiliated her time after time, has children with other women he has never acknowledged All whilst his wife was alive. And only when she was dying, did he mend his ways.

[@user-lv3oh2cg1d]

Brilliant. Couldn't think of anyone better for the job. Well done Sir. X

[@jillosler9353]

I had tears at the back of my eyes throughout the whole moving memorial service - but this song sung perfectly by Sir Tom Jones had the tears falling. Please take this song to the top of the charts so the young might begin to understand the sacrifice an earlier young generation gave so they can be free.

💔❤🇨🇦

[@patriciapfrimmer6857]

Sir Tom Jones quelle prestance et qu'elle émotion . Votre voix raisonne dans ce lieu de mémoire.

[@ianmacdonald6754]

If those soldiers who fell could see our country now, they would have turned back ! 😭 May they be forever remembered! Beautiful song sung by a beautiful man !🤩

[@bawtreerd]

Man put everything and more into this performance God bless everyone who put this together

[@Harry-ck5rw]

❤❤❤Tom you're thé best , what a performer , so good . A perfect tribute to thé veterans and thé fallen . Thanks

[@elfriedesouthee6359]

I'm in tears and reminds me of all brave people during those hard times. One of my uncles went to the Russian front at 17years old and was lost in action. I never met him. This song should be played around the world ❤❤❤❤

[@davidharrison6310]

What emotion! What a singer! What a tribute! What a great man!

[@kmm62627]

What a fantastic ambassador Sir Tom Jones was at the D-Day commemorations. This was perfect for the 80th anniversary. We will remember them and we must never, ever forget what aĺl those men, from whichever country, did to ensure our freedom. We must do everything we can to stop all wars - man's inhumanity to man through the ages should serve to prevent us continuing such atrocities. We are all stronger in peace.

[@sorinprandea3829]

Parcă cântă îngerii la căpătâiul acestor soldații care au căzut pentru libertate ! Tot respectul!

[@stevenrobertson8329]

Oh Sir Tom, you have done it again, imperious.

[@Gill-Leeds]

Powerful, thank you Sir Tom,

[@francoismouton8338]

quelle voix...quelle prestance...il met toute on émotion dans cet air, qui nous plonge 80a en arrière auprès de ces héros disparus.

[@barrymorse1609]

Well done tom fantastic song ❤

[@cecilebock7661]

Sir Tom Joness', merci. Ce chef d'œuvre musical je le connaissais pour vous avoir suivi lors de "The Voice UK" et oui ! Mais cette fois votre interprétation était GRANDIOSE dans une parfaite maîtrise et simplicité MERCI MERCI MERCI.

[@lindaszatkowski321]

My dear Sir Tom you are the best ❤

[@hilaryhill4968]

Fantastic Sir Tom.

[@theweescotsman509]

Even the Soldiers that never made it off the beaches shed a wee tear to this. To the Fallen and the once’s who made it home I thank you for what you done/sacrificed for us but I am also SORRY for what we have done with what you fought and died for…. FOR US 💙✌️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Only Tom Jones could do justice of this very special day!🇺🇸🇬🇧

[@joanlister2309]

So powerful

[@woodwardthomasjones67]

Smile, thanks for your love and support towards me❤❤❤

[@anneshrubsole406]

Amazing! He is 84, his voice hasn't diminished at all.

[@caroltyndaal4293]

I wept for days after I heard this and keep coming back to play it again. Also, Tom Jones somehow keeps looking better as he ages. The way he stands, his facial expression, he just evolved magnificently. One would think his voice would be frail at 80, but like everything else about him, his voice... well, his voice left me speechless this time❤❤❤❤

[@andynorris3537]

so moving and powerful

[@boris8787]

Imagine Tom singing that song in my 1944 movie town. 🎥🎥🎥

[@jocelynej6972]

Quelle émotion Tom Jones nous a donnés. J'en ai les larmes aux yeux.Toujours immense chanteur à 84 ans. Félicitations Sir Tom Jones.

[@nickjonesCSM]

After 60 years our Tom still at the very top. I think his voice has actually got a little better with age. The term legend is way over used these day. But this man truly is a legend in every possible way.

[@wendylawson7128]

What a wonderful voice and brilliant song well done sir Tom x

[@maryann6884]

Talent. Heart and talent. What a loving and lovely tribute to Veterans everywhere. They were the greatest, and this is so fitting.

[@BoadiceanRevenge]

While Sir Tom does the song proud, let's not forget the lady who wrote and composed it. Bernice Johnson Reagon. Part of a collective known as Freedom Singers from Alabama. Round about 1973? Check her out on the KZbin. She's also in her 80s. RIP to all those gone for and before us! 🙏❤️🙏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇪🙋

[@adrianwechsler5441]

Absolutely And Most Definitely The Most Beautiful And Appropriate Song For This Honoring D- Day 80 Years Ago! Sir Tom Jones I Am Crying Tears Of Joy Now Because This Is Your Song!

It was the RAF band giving the accompaniment the lightest and perfect touch.
