I've never been a fan of his, but I really like the new album.

The lyrics to Sugar Daddy are really creepy when you realize he's 68.

Welsh aren't English.

I passed his house on a tour of Wales. Highlight of the trip. Love his work, can't understand a damn word he says when he isn't singing, though.

It's a little known fact that former AC/DC drummer Chris Slade was also the drummer for the Tom Jones hit "It's Not Unusual".

I have front row tickets for the wife and I to see him in Vegas in January.

I figured we better see him live before he retires.

Please, TJ's wife doesn't deserve an award for patience. She knew her man was doggin' her while he was on the road.....and she has spent her life doggin' him while he was gone. She stayed for the cash and cushy lifestyle because it was easier for her lazy ass to stay in the marriage and not have to work a day in her life than to go through the trouble of divorcing.

She's neither a victim nor a saint.

Sounds like a standard marriage.

You shouldn't talk about your mom like that.

I wouldn't be surprised, the guy still has it, one of the top 3 of 28 shows we've seen this year. Unfortunately they were sticklers about us taking cameras in or it would have made for some good photos.

Patient: Doctor, I can't get the song The Green Green Grass of Home out of my head.

Doctor: Hmmmm. Sounds like Tom Jones Syndrome.

Patient: Is is a rare disease?

Doctor: It's not unusual.

So this guy runs into a doctor's office. Doc asks what wrong. Guy says "you gotta help me! I keep thinking i'm Tom Jones!" Doc says "well, it's not unusual."

/gets a laugh every time
//well, from the over 30 crowd

Will be looking into the new disc.

Picked up the disc with Jools Holland a couple of years ago, has become a favorite of mine! Good stuff from the old dude.

After 50 years its usually spite that keeps people together, and in this situation a pre-nup is probably involved too.

But hey, he may like the old bajingo. Like an old wine it just gets better with age... I've been told.

Currently, Tom Jones is: alive

 
Barnaclebones 2008-12-09 06:53:21 PM  
I've seen this man with a very drunk, soon-to-be-throwing-up, twenty-something, 6ft 2in amazon. She was shoving her tongue so far down his throat I know she could taste his lunch. He also likes the hot lesbian threesome action (coming from my hot, lesbian sister-in-law who worked with him regularly at MGM in Vegas...I believe her).

Now having seen his wife, I can understand WHY he is a schmuck. Nonetheless, he IS a schmuck and yes he does look like a tanned testicle in person.

/He hit on me personally, but only half-heartedly, once at studio 54 in Vegas. He was seriously looking for company that night, hence the amazon.
//He did make my mother-in-law and grandmother-in-law very happy by meeting with them backstage after a comped show, courtesy of my sister-in-law pulling some strings as it were.
///Not sure I want to know what it took to get those comped tickets (shudder).

That's a bit of a trouser knot he's got there.
