I should of posted about it when it was on, but Tom Jones did a desert island disks a few months back (this is a British radio institution, going for decades) which was cool. He said the singer he most liked to duet with was Arethra Franklin. With all other singing partners he had to hold back to not drown them out, but Arethra could belt it out as hard as him.

Imagine being there for those two. Your eyebrows would probably singe.

My college roommate told me he heard Tom Jones was hung like a horse and that some girl lost her virginity to him and got so torn up that she needed stitching.

Just telling you what I heard. Guy's the definition of legendary.

Jesus Christ I skimmed this whole ****ing thread to make sure nobody (especially myself - the thread is old) posted that.

Sorry. FWIW, I didn't know about it being Elvira. I probably read the first line of that post them moved on.

In... he is purely awesome!

I mean, how many other Welshman were in Mars Attacks?

I still remember, as a kid, watching women toss underwear on stage during his weekly American TV show.

Natalie Imbruglia penned the song "Torn" after playing "Just the tip" with Tom back in 1994.

Mars Attacks ending with Tom Jones dancing with birds and **** on his arm singing It's Not Unusual was GOAT.
