ENJOYED LISTENING TO TOM`S INTERVIEW ON ABC MELBOURNE.HE ALWAYS MAKES IT SO INTERESTING IE WHAT HE DOES AFTER THE SHOW-HIS SLEEP PATTERN EVEN AS A CHILD FINDING IT HARD TO GET UP EARLY FOR SCHOOL!.TALKING ABOUT GETTING INVOLVED IN SONG WRITING AND NOT JUST WAITING FOR A SONG WRITER TO COME UP WITH THE NEXT SUITABLE SONG FOR HIM.HE MENTIONED `SUGAR DADDY` AS AN EXAMPLE OF HOW THE IDEA OF THIS 24 HRS ALBUM STARTED IE IN A CLUB/RESTAURANT AFTER HIS SHOW SOMEONE CALLING HIM THIS AND TELLING HIM TO USE IT AS A SONG TITLE AND HE DID JUST THAT.THAT HE DREADS RETIREMENT -THAT MUSIC KEEPS HIM GOING-ITS HIS LIFEBLOOD-THAT HE IS LUCKY THAT A HOBBY TURNED INTO A CAREER EARLY ON FOR HIM-THAT HE ENJOYS WHAT HE DOES.SAID MOST FOLK WORK ALL THEIR LIVES IN JOBS THEY DON`NT REALLY LIKE TO EARN MONEY AND WHEN THEY RETIRE THEY TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT LIKE A HOBBY.TOMS A STRAIGHT TALKER AND VERY WORTHWHILE HEARING WHAT HE HAS TO SAY.
Great interview. I’ve just come back from the Tom Jones concert in Bangkok. What a fabulous performer! Not because he’s 69 and still doing it, but because he’s just as strong as ever and gives every song 100%
It was a privilege to be there.
I saw Tom perform on my birthday 27th February at Bimbadgen Estate in the Hunter Valley NSW Australia. He held the crowd in the palm of his hand. What a wonderful performance. His voice is as spectacular as ever and his energy was amazing. Thankyou Tom for the best birthday ever. The crowd was singing and laughing the whole way back to the car parks after the concert – a great testimony to how much everyone enjoyed the night.
Tom Jones is #1.
HOLA

I can’t seem to find any problem with them, maybe you don’t have quicktime? If you keep having problems please email support@tomjones.com.
Finally, a professional interview, with no questions of a personal nature, thank you Richard. It’s great to hear Sir Tom share his feelings about his career, and what he hopes to do in the future. He’s truly and amazing individual. Can’t wait for the new album to be released.
