I'm Gen Z, just 22 years old and I love Mr. Tom Jones also Paul Anka, My crush from the other world Mr. Elvis Presley, and many more. I'm a huge fan. They have these huge undying lovely vocals. Very classic and gold. Keep performing and stay healthy, sir Tom.
Los años no pasan en valde y aunque hay cambios su voz es maravillosa, conmueve , se siente el sentimiento y lo hace , te admiro Tom por tanto tiempo que nos has deleitado con tu gran voz y precensia , le pido a Dios te conceda vida y salud te amo Tom ❤
I'm a millennial but Tom Jones is a huge part of my childhood. My grandparents used to listen to this one radio station that would play 50s to 70s music on Sundays. We even had a CD of his greatest hits and it was a big deal because we were dirt-poor then. Thank you for the nostalgia, NPR and Sir Tom Jones! ❤
The greatest singer of all times, Sir TOM JONES!!! We love you so very much!!! No words of thanks can express our gratitude to you, Sir Tom Jones!!! Love love love you so...
He is still a POWERFUL and layered singer. God gives great blessings! Celebrate the voice of Mr. Tom Jones. Check history and review his success, he belongs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!!!! He helped to create the blue print for a myriad of genres.👂👂👀👀👀👂 You Tube has receipts, Y'ALL.
This was my first time hearing "I'm Growing Old" and it touched me deeply. You can feel the emotion in Tom's voice and it sent chills up my spine. You are a true legend, Tom Jones.
El no necesita estar ahí. Lo importante es que está en el corazón de millones por todo el mundo. Y recuerda: " La gente suele olvidar lo que dices y lo que haces. Lo que NUNCA podrá olvidar es cómo los hiciste sentir". Y Tom con su maravillosa voz, nos ha hecho sentir y vivir cosas maravillosas. Por eso es INOLVIDABLE!
@@jimquantic Well, probably. To be 81/2 and looks so healthy and strong you must be doing something right with your health and taking care of your body.
I’ve loved Tom Jones since I was was 16. I am now 67 and love since I first heard that strong rich voice. Been to two of his concerts. Never disappoints. Happy Birthday to you Sir Tom Jones. Thank You for sharing your wonderful voice ❤️
Thank you Tiny Desk and Happy Birthday Sir Tom! Thank you for all you've given us over the years and I wish you another 81 years in good health and happiness!
One of the great male voices of all time! So rich and soulful - right up there in tone quality with Pavarotti, Lou Rawls, Joe Williams and Paul Robeson.
The replies 😅🤣 The original comment was not referring to singers who were also famous during the 1980's era, but that Sir Tom Jones still has a powerful voice at 81 years old and for anyone to name another singer who still sings with a powerful voice at 80+ years old.
Beautiful and makes you realize that Sir Tom is not immortal , which is sad in a way. When he sang I’m growing old actually brought tears to my eyes. May you sing every day you are blessed to share your beautiful voice with us. May God bless you always.
He might look older, but the voice has barely changed. And, for anyone who doesn't know his catalog of the last 20 years .... you're missing out on some great music.
The legendary pipes are still there. You can’t deny the gift he’s given us for so many years. An amazing talent and performer for the ages. Thank you Sir Thomas Jones.
Went with my Grandmother to see him in the 70’s in Vegas, Caesar’s Palace, when I was a little kid. 😳🤭 (ladies undergarments flying on stage). Happy Birthday Sir!
No matter where he performed it was the same thing, ladies underwear would be flying through the air as soon as he started singing and when he picked a peace up and wipe,t his forehead the women would go crazy 🤪 😜 😂. PEACE BE WITH YOU MY FRIEND. 🙏 😎✌🏴
Love how Ethan just sits back and watches the maestro do his thing with "I'm Growing Old". Oh, yeah. Fans had to wait 55 years for "Growing Old". It was worth the wait. What a song..........brings tears. I like how Sir Tom says, "It says *growing* old, not I *am* old". LOL Sir Tom's great sense of humor. What an international treasure Sir Tom is!
My word has his voice stayed perfect. Happy birthday Tom. Most singers are shells past 60. Art Garfunkel and Tom Jones are the only exceptions that immediately come to mind.
Wow!! Tom Jones sounds great!! I was a big fan of his as a little girl watching him on my grandparents TV. This man has plenty of Soul in his music. Thanks Tiny Desk! Peace, Love, And Blessings Always Tom Jones💙
Happy birthday Tom 🎉❤. What a thrill to hear you sing 🤦🏼♀️💗 Nobody like you Tom is the best among the best, your career is immense and brilliant, nobody like you, so splendid singing so beautiful at this age. God bless you 🙏🙏and keep singing much more! we love you Tom !!🙅🏼♀️💗💗
I’ve had the privilege of seeing this man in concert 3 times, and when I say he brings the house down- lord does he BRING IT DOWN. So undervalued by so many, the man still has it 👏🏼🙌🏽 thank you for gifting our ears with soulful tunes, Sir Tom Jones
Happy birthday Sir Tom Jones. Your voice and performance are unique. May you stay with us for many years to come. The new generations are discovering how great this Legend is. Irrepeatable indeed.
Hands down one of the best things i have seen on my fav channel EVER. Sir Tom =LEGEND end of the story. Thanks for this so much, it is immense. Also Happy 81st Birthday sir Tom. His face got me in the heart at the end. What a guy.
That Voice is Treasure ! Man it's still Beautiful A total Icon that Man Is ! So glad to hear That Voice. No shakes or cracks As if it's preserved for life ! ❤
I'm here because, Tom Jones...greatest voice of our time.
81 years old, 🏴🏴🏴 a welsh legend
Only Wales? Freakin amazing
He reminds me of Captain Cat in Under Milk Wood by Dylan Thomas.
How about just, "A legend".
@@evamarjai1696 hello
@@tomjones9618 Hello! It was a great concert, many thanks!
This guy on his 80s still doesn't lose his prime.
Nice of NPR to drop this on Tom's 81st birthday, he's still got it!
didn't see your comment, but I said pretty much the same thing.
"Drop"? Hope it didn't break...
Brilliant in the 60’s,70’s,80’s,90’s ,00’s,10’s ,20’s .This is a proper legend .
The voice is just 100% still there. He’s literally lost nothing. It’s outrageous! Sir Tom’s work of the last 10 years is his very best.
With respect Toms voice is totally different from what it was - he will admit that himself. Toms genius is that he has adapted his voice over the years and doesn’t try and do things he is no longer capable of doing. His voice is still fantastic, but certainly different…….
@@rufdymond And he has the added soul that comes from so many years of living. What he has lost in technique he has gained in emotion.
Yea dude.... no - He's still decent obviously but just.... no
@@rufdymond Indeed - he is very aware of what he still can do, and he does it amazingly. He is aging gracefully and without the embarrassment of some of his peers.
The master at work. There’s not many people in there 80’s who still work as hard as him 🥰

No s*!Tting, I think he may be a Highlander.
Tom , Engelbert and Sinatra , great voices over the 80's years old !!
@@ignaziobriones7566 😭
This is one of the coolest internet finds I have ran across in a long time!!!! He sounds great and the band is great!
СЭР ТОМ, вы чудное явление!!!!!!!
Holy...this opening is so great
& the end so sad
Выдающийся человек, обаяние зашкаливает. Что 30 лет, что 81 год слушаем и восхищаемся. Здоровья ему и долгих лет
Tom Jones is a legend. Never forget his first number one was in 1965!
One of them unmistakable voices. Still sounds good in his old age.
トムのバラッドは世界一😊
He sing Ballad No.1
Why doesn't the youth know about the great Tom Jones? So unfair. Such a legend.
El TIEMPO pasa para todos x suerte y QUÉ pase mas son los años vividos
Dieser Mann ist wie ein Spitzenwein ‼️‼️‼️je älter je besser ‼️‼️‼️ ich wünsche ihm von Herzen, dass er bei bester Gesundheit 100 Jahre alt wird ‼️‼️‼️
True definition of the meaning "LEGEND"
Amen. Still the greatest.

People who haven't watched this one are missing out.
You don't realize who he is and what a legend Tom Jones is. This man is gold.
Wow 81 years and still has a great voice!
Wow, when he sang “I’m Growing Old” I sensed a sadness. You are a treasure Sir To Jones.
When you're good, you're good. As time goes by.. Such a warm timbre and presence!

Long live the legend! That voice is forever.
Been listening to Tom a lot lately, dude could fit nicely in the rock hall of fame I’d say
Why on earth is he NOT in the Rock Hall of Fame? His fans should be doing something about this. Tom deserves this!
I don't understand why he is not...many in it who shouldn't be
Yes, he deserves a place in the Rockin' Roll Hall of Fame.

I'm Growing Old
What a voice
Unreal that he's still so active and sounding great! if only Elvis had listened to Tom
in regard to what--health issues. I know Tom "drinks a lot of water and gets lots of sleep", is that what you mean?
@@jimquantic Well, probably. To be 81/2 and looks so healthy and strong you must be doing something right with your health and taking care of your body.
This is fantastic. He may 81 but he is still incredible.
Tom you are maybe the greatest voice of all time ❤
Thank you, Tom Jones. Truly, you are a remarkable singer.

Hello Thanks for your comment.
One More Cup of Coffee by Bob Dlyan is one of my favs.
81 and he still got it!
Man what a song. This man can sing like no one else. Distinctive, soulful,timeless. Great to hear you again Mr.Jones . Your the man.
You obviously don’t know the difference between you’re , an abbreviation of you are , and your , something you own or possess !
Tom Jones still happening after all those years. Been listening to him since I was a kid . ( im now 60)
Y yo también le oigo de niña y nuevamente lo descubrí, me encanta.
Timeless and only getting better, incredible.
The man still sounds incredible. To be 81 years old and still sound like he’s in his 20s smh. May we all be so lucky. Legend ❤️
Just lovely, Tom Jones, wine only gets better with ag
Thank you Tiny Desk and Happy Birthday Sir Tom! Thank you for all you've given us over the years and I wish you another 81 years in good health and happiness!

Sir Tom’s voice can move mountains
Gahhh goosebumps starting at the first song. One of the best voices out there, so iconic and legendary. ❤❤❤❤❤

Still such a powerful voice in his 80’s... name another? i’ll wait.
