More quotes by 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.

Winning the Outstanding Contribution award is great, because you know you have won in advance. Previously, I have been really nervous during the ceremony because you have no idea if you are going to get called up on stage. This time I could relax and enjoy myself.
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 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 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
There's plenty for me to do. There are more albums. I'll record as long as I can and as long as my voice works as well as it does now and for as long as people want to hear me.

People never talked about my music. They just counted how many knickers were on stage.
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 come from a coal-mining, working-class background. My father was a coal miner.
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 have a weakness for watches. I have to stop myself buying more.
Tom Jones
My real name was Thomas Jones Woodward, so I dropped the Woodward.
Tom Jones
I've always felt myself as being a serious singer.
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 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
I love listening to new stuff, at home in LA I always have the radio on to hear what is happening.
