Elvis was always over the top. That's why he had that gold lamé suit! He designed his jumpsuits himself. He always said, If you're going to be a star, you should look like one.

More quotes by Tom Jones
People never talked about my music. They just counted how many knickers were on stage.
Tom Jones
I've always worn jewellery but for a time it went out of fashion. Like grungy and punk bands didn't wear jewellery because it was stupid.
Tom Jones
Comfort me by a solemn Assurance, that when the little Parlour in which I sit at this Instant, shall be reduced to a worse furnished Box, I shall be read, with Honour, by those who never knew nor saw me, and whom I shall neither know nor see.
Tom Jones
There is nothing like the sound of a Welsh Male Choir and the Treorchy is the finest. They have represented the best of the Welsh voice for generations with honour and integrity. They are international ambassadors.
Tom Jones
I have had some pretty wild nights! I think the media keeps a very close eye on what people are up to these days. I was out with George Clooney a few nights ago and we had a great time.
Tom Jones
I have a weakness for watches. I have to stop myself buying more.
Tom Jones
I've always felt myself as being a serious singer.
Tom Jones
Plant a radish, get a radish, never any doubt. That's why I love vegetables, you know what they're about!
Tom Jones
I haven't become an American! Having a house in LA is just where the house is. It's just a convenience thing living there. I carry Wales around inside me. I'd consider moving back there one day. I never really left.
Tom Jones
I didn't like to be restricted, because when you're in a choir, you have a part to sing and you sing it. I always liked singing on my own.
Tom Jones
I don't think you can sing about certain things when you're a teen-ager or in your early 20s, because you haven't lived long enough. So I think living gives you character and that comes out in your voice.
Tom Jones
It's not unusual to be loved by anyone, it's not unusual to have fun with anyone. But when I see you hanging about with anyone, it's not unusual to see me cry. I wanna' die.
Tom Jones
I think the people who really love the way somebody sings, they like to hear it. As long as you don't change your style completely or do something that has nothing to do with what you're known for, which I don't agree with.
Tom Jones
Whenever I've been asked to be in a film, directors only want me to play myself... I'm fascinated by the thought of being an actor, but it's too hard. And I think Shakespeare-which has been suggested to me-might be a bit of a stretch.
Tom Jones
I want to find out more about how the Backstreet Boys get their incredible sound. I've got both their albums and I would love to cover one of their songs
Tom Jones
My real name was Thomas Jones Woodward, so I dropped the Woodward.
Tom Jones
You are only a young talent, but we don't know how old your soul is.
Tom Jones
You can't lose the essence of a song. I try to enhance it more than anything else.
Tom Jones
I think the first time I ever wore a tuxedo was when I played at the Talk Of The Town in 1967, because it was a nightclub and that was the thing to do.
Tom Jones
I realize that singing is saving my life, once I started again.
