He was singing live on TV the other evening, and at 80 years old he's still belting the tunes out. Even when it 'wasn't cool' to like singers like him, whenever you heard him sing you stopped and listened. Such a talent. 😃

I can tell this is not the studio version. He sang live here...

Tom Jones is a perfect example as to why most of us have little talent..... God gave most of it to a handful of people like Tom Jones! Great video!

Of course, Elvis had it too!

Nobody comes close to Tom. He will go down in History as the greatest ever!

This is one of Tom's greatest live performances. So much passion! He feels every note from his head to his toes, and he makes me feel them every time. I'm so glad people are reacting to this one.

This makes me wish I was still a young girl that waited all week to watch his TV show! Love him.

This performance leaves me utterly speechless!!!

Oh my stars!!!!! His vocals, his gorgeous face and that body! He who has EVERYTHING!!

This is great. Shirley Bassey does a great version too.

Speaking of Dame Shirley Bassey, I wish someone would do a reaction video of her singing the James Bond 007 theme to "Goldfinger." She recorded it for the Bond movie when she was 24 when it became a #1 hit around the world. But she was 73 when she performed it live here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/X6OmqNacf7XfpbA.html and she belted it out of the park! What a phenomenal live performance! Also, go back to when Shirley Bassey was just 19 and getting her career started in 1956 when she released her first hit in the UK, "Burn My Candle." It was considered so naughty at the time, they banned it. She was a little hottie. And what a voice! kzread.info/dash/bejne/l6R9xtqon5e3k6w.html

Tom Jones is one of those singers that I compare all others to. He injects so much passion and energy into his performances.

Please also do a reaction to Shirley Bassey's 1987 concert in Berlin singing this. She will knock you off your feet. Entire body in goosebumps and tears streaming down my face. Please find it. It's a must to listen to, Shirley was the best. So many can do this song nice, but, Shirley please please please

Legend, love all his songs free up on his music

Probably my favorite Tom Jones song next to "Without Love".

I think the original is by Ben E. King. Another great version is by Shirley Bassey. If Tom is the voice of Welsh male singers, then Shirley Bassey is the voice of Welsh female singers. She's best remembered for her themes to James Bond movies (especially "Goldfinger")

Tom Jones...legend...period!

I used to watch his show, legend!!!!

The raw emotion in Tom Jones' voice and the passion in his performances just leave your sole bleeding. What a singer! Delilah is still me favorite. 😎 Great reaction! 💖

Tom's The Man.

Have you done 'I'll never fall in love again', 'Delilah', or 'It's not unusual'. These are Tom Jones must do's.

Yes the Jordin Sparks one is my favorite cover of this song

wow wat a performance, so so gd.

That's an original song by Tom . it's one of my favorites.i like your show

Tom had a Top Ten Hit with this song! 🎼🎶🎵🇨🇦

The original Italian Version was recorded in 1961, and the English language Version was first recorded in 1963 by Ben E King in the US. Also, in September 1963, Shirley Vassey released her version and performed it at the end of almost every concert she is given. Tom Jones version was released in 1970 and his version was the biggest in hit the US. You should check out Shirley Bassey's version--there are numerous ones on KZread.

He really shouldn’t sing to me like that 🥰

Yes Tom did the original. He's 81 still sounds great. Also a judge on the Voice in the UK. He definitely deserves being there. He does some duets with singers there. Worth checking it out. Good day

Jayy, Was Tom Jones and Elvis Presley friends? In early 1965, Jones rocketed to popularity with the huge hit 'It's Not Unusual'. Later that year, they met at the Paramount stage, where Elvis was filming Paradise Hawaiian Style. After that, , spending more and more time together in Las Vegas.

que más puedes decir que magistral

Look at you girl...You are mesmerized by Tom Jones!!!

No one can sing it like Tom!!! This is his original!

Ben E King was the original guy his version is nice to. I believe his came out in 1960 or 62 and he was in an African American gentleman. With respect always to you my dear. Brant Heavner 😊😊😍

The original version was by singer Ben E. King in 1963.👍👍👏 An awesome version by one of my favorite singer besides Elvis , Tom Jones .

I was also that little girl who watched his show every week with my grandmother. We both loved him. This is my favorite T.J. songs. This song, to me, sounded like it should be the big show stopping number is a broadway show. Such power and emotion in his voice. It still gives me the chills.

Hi! I was going through the comments to see if anyone has heard ANGELINA JORDAN SING THIS SONG! THAT'S WHEN YOU BROUGHT IT UP THAT SHE DID !!! GREAT JOB AGAIN! GO ANGELINA JORDAN!!!!

Tom Jones is the original singer of this song. Others sang it later.

I always loved his music. He is a coach on the voice in England, the old guy but still has a fantastic voice. I think you would like Delia. A song from way back. Thank you love your channel.

He’s still got the goods too! I’m 48, but when I was a teenager, my mom used to tell me that in his day women would throw panties at him! Well, all I knew at the time was that he sang the song that Carlton did the Carlton dance to on Fresh Prince so I had my doubts. (It’s called It’s not Unusual. Check it out!) But now I hear this song and I’d throw my panties at him now!

I love watching your face when Tom sings. You are so sincere in your reactions and that is what makes it so enjoyable. Keep reacting to as many videos as possible because people know when someone is fake reacting and real about it...and you're real girl!!

Great rendition of a great song. The Mexican song "Malaguena Salerosa" is similar in that it refers to a poor man loving a beautiful Spanish senorita who is unattainable.

Serious pipes TJ has.

Yes eye candy can sing

Tom Jones is the original. Only he can sing it like that. This song is from 1967.

don tom jones un genio de la musica

The Ultimate Tom Jones song that not many people have ever heard is: "Letter to Lucille"

Tom's is the original!

He did it to you again, didn't he!? 😂

I forgot about this one! Thanks Jayy!

I am telling you right now that Ben E King does something with this song you will never forget.

That man can saaaaang

I always go to you first for reactions...loved this one~

Hey Jayy, love you too! I ENJOY your reactions and your great attitude!

My fave by T. J.

I get goosebumps when I hear him sing. ❤️

Have you noticed how all the old songs were about love, and all the new ones are about sex? This is an example of a powerful Welsh voice, I don't know what they feed them over there but they have more than their fair share of exceptional singers, and I'm not just talking about the famous ones, generally they seem to have a natural talent for it.

Don't get me wrong, I love Tom Jones but the best version is still the one of Shirley Bassey, that one is un-beatable!! Thumbs up from The Netherlands!!

♥️♥️♥️♥️ thank you dear

I can't remember who's was the original version but Sir Tom Jones who's friends with Dame Shirley Bassey also has a version of this and both have been seen working together on a couple of TV programmes here In the UK if you look up Des O'connor show with Dame Shirley Bassey and Sir Tom Jones it was a Xmas one from what I remember,and if you see the name Freddie Starr come up that'll be the right one

Raise Your Hands - Tom Jones & Janis Joplin

Tom Jones is truly a fantastic singer, his often bombastic style fits well here. Much better than the Italian original from 1961 sung by Joe Sentieri. Written by Carlo Donida Labati. As so often, the English covers become more popular than the French or Italian originals. It seems that English speakers cannot absorb songs in other languages. Sometimes like here it's better but far from always, especially when it comes to French songs.

Jordin Sparks did a great version on American Idol.

Great Reaction. Thank You!

Great reaction....you got it just right...them vocals tho....I mean this dude got PIPES!

What a voice

It was a Shirley Brassey song (they are both from South Wales)!

TOM IS AMAZING ON THIS SONG. THE ORIGINAL WAS IN ITALIAN "UNO DEI TANTI" BY JOE SENTIERI IN 1961. IT WAS THEN TRANSLATED INTO ENGLISH. BEN E. KING AND SHIRLEY BASSEY ALSO DID WONDERFUL EARLY VERSIONS IN ENGLISH.

He just released also a new song

Tom Jones is awesome, however if you liked that song, you should listen to "More" by Any Williams. It has a similar sound, and it's from the same era. It also happens to be my parents song that they danced to at their wedding on January 20/1965, 56 years ago, and they are still together with the same sparkle in their eyes. So it holds a very special place in my heart.

A big Tom Jones hit that I've never seen anybody react to is 'Say You'll Stay Until Tomorrow,' which is my favorite Tom Jones number. My Dad used to make fun of Tom when one of his songs played by exclaiming 'Shout us a song, Tom!' which is why Mr Jones will be forever known as 'Shout Us A Song Tom' in our family vernacular.

Linda Jones sang this also.

Shirley Bassey recoeded this in 1965, I read. Origin ? From a stage show ? Mebbe, I dunno.

Angelina sing that song at 6.year,s old..💟😊

George Michael Careless Whisper

After the double hip replacements, he doesn't bounce around as much but the voice is still amazing.

Hi. I can picture the woman Tom is singing to telling him to buck up, get up off his knees and forget about her.

👏👏👏👏😍😍🤣🤣

Enjoyed this! Luther Vandross did a wonderful version too!

Ben E. King actually was the first to record it, in 1963. Tom did it in 1970. Personally, no one holds a candle to Tom on this one.

Shirley Bassey did a version in 1965

Another 'stalker song' from Tom! I see another Delilah incident on the horizon :D We're so enthralled by the power, passion and vocal dexterity we miss the actual words ... we were chatting recently and now we're making a list of all the dodgy lyrics from the past that we all overlooked at the time. :D

Calling it a "stalker song" is ridiculous and insulting. It's a song about unrequited love, and the power of love over receiving material things.

Isn't it funny how she has such a small screen on him LOL and he's the actual star and she's got all this grandiose background
