From the top.

0:03:480:03:50

# Whoa, yeah... #

0:04:010:04:02

Yes, life has changed for Tom Jones and the Squires since it all happened.

0:04:020:04:07

Tom Jones, the miner's son from Pontypridd,

0:04:070:04:10

the man with the all swinging body.

0:04:100:04:13

Good. We'll try it again in a few moments.

0:04:130:04:14

OK.

0:04:140:04:16

-Hello, Tom.

-Hello.

0:04:170:04:19

Lucille, is that going to be your next release?

0:04:190:04:21

Er, no, we just come in, you know.

0:04:210:04:24

In a week, we do quite a few numbers and keep them in the can.

0:04:240:04:27

I'm told you appeal to middle-aged women as much as to the teenagers.

0:04:270:04:31

-Why do you think this is?

-Well, um...

0:04:310:04:33

In the fan mail, you know, a lot of middle-aged people write

0:04:330:04:38

they like it because they think I've got a good voice so I'm very pleased.

0:04:380:04:45

-Do you think the others haven't?

-I wouldn't say that.

0:04:450:04:48

-That's what they say.

-What does your father think of this?

0:04:480:04:51

He's very much of a traditional Welshman.

0:04:510:04:54

He loves it. He's always said do what you want to do,

0:04:540:04:57

make the most of your life.

0:04:570:05:00

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:05:180:05:21

I'm very thrilled to have as my guest one of the most dynamic young singers in the world today.

Warm, isn't it?

0:07:270:07:29

-Fabulous song. That's a fabulous song.

-Thank you.

0:07:290:07:32

You hit that high note up there. I'd like to say something in Welsh

0:07:320:07:34

but I don't know anything except Eisteddfod.

0:07:340:07:37

Well, you're Irish, aren't you? Can't you say something in Irish?

0:07:370:07:39

Well, I don't know what the Irish is for Eisteddfod, you see.

0:07:390:07:41

-How's your Japanese?

-Terrible.

0:07:410:07:44

Let's do the all-time thing of a duet and let's sing it in English.

0:07:440:07:48

-All right.

-OK.

0:07:480:07:49

0:07:510:07:53

"Delilah"

0:09:520:09:53

# I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window

0:09:560:10:01

# I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind

0:10:040:10:09

# She was my woman

0:10:110:10:16

# As she deceived me I watched and went out of my mind

0:10:180:10:23

# My, my, my Delilah

0:10:260:10:30

# Why, why, why, Delilah?

0:10:330:10:38

# I could see

0:10:400:10:43

# That girl was no good for me

0:10:430:10:48

# But I was lost like a slave that no man could free

0:10:480:10:53

# At break of day when that man drove away I was waiting

0:10:550:11:00

# I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door

0:11:020:11:07

# She stood there laughing

0:11:100:11:15

# I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more

0:11:170:11:22

# My, my, my Delilah

0:11:240:11:30

# Why, why, why, Delilah?

0:11:320:11:37

# So before

0:11:400:11:43

CHEEERING

0:13:040:13:06

I've heard it suggested you're going to live in America. Is this true?

0:13:060:13:09

No, no, no.

0:13:090:13:11

Have you been able to get home since you've come to Wales?

0:13:110:13:14

-Are you going to get home tomorrow?

-I don't think so.

0:13:140:13:16

I don't think we'll have time, because my manager's with me

0:13:160:13:20

and we've got things to do tomorrow afternoon

0:13:200:13:22

and then we've got to get to Birmingham for Friday night.

0:13:220:13:26

So, you've had a very busy time recently in Scandinavia.

0:13:260:13:30

-Was it a great success over there?

-Yes, fantastic.

0:13:300:13:32

# Well, she's all you'd ever want, She's the kind they'd like to flaunt

0:13:400:13:43

# And take to dinner

0:14:010:14:03

# And the lady is mine

0:14:050:14:08

# Well, she's never in the way always something nice to say

0:14:100:14:14

# Oh, what a blessing

0:14:140:14:15

# I can leave her on her own Knowing she's OK alone

0:14:170:14:21

# And there's no messing

0:14:210:14:23

# She's a lady

0:14:250:14:27

# And that lady is mine

0:14:360:14:39

# Well, she never asks for very much and I don't refuse her

0:14:400:14:44

# Always treat her with respect, I never would abuse her

0:14:440:14:48

# What she's got is hard to find, and I don't want to lose her

0:14:480:14:52

# Help me build a mountain from this little pot of clay

0:14:520:14:58

# Well, she knows what I'm about, She can take what I dish out

0:15:000:15:04

# Wales, Wales

# Home sweet home is Wales

0:16:080:16:12

# My longing

0:16:120:16:14

# My yearning for Wales. #

0:16:140:16:19

It was early morning, it was November, so naturally it was cold.

0:16:190:16:24

But there was no cloud in the sky,

0:16:240:16:27

and the air was pure and sweet.

0:16:270:16:29

As I looked out on a view I knew so well,

0:16:300:16:32

the years seemed to fall away from me

0:16:320:16:35

and I became a boy again.

0:16:350:16:37

I found it hard to believe what I knew was true.

0:16:370:16:40

That a couple of hundred feet below was another world,

0:16:400:16:43

where men were working at the coalface in Fernhill Colliery.

0:16:430:16:46

But both worlds are needed to make up Wales,

0:16:480:16:50

hen wlad fy nhadau - the land of my fathers.

0:16:500:16:54

# Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi

0:16:540:17:02

# Gwlad beirdd a chantorion,

0:17:020:17:06

# Enwogion o fri... #

0:17:060:17:09

While I'm in the mood for looking back,

0:17:090:17:12

here are a few other songs

0:17:120:17:13

that people never seem to get tired of asking for.

0:17:130:17:16

And I never get tired of singing.

0:17:170:17:20

Well...

0:17:210:17:23

# I've been in love so many times

0:17:280:17:33

# Thought I knew the score

0:17:330:17:37

# But now you've treated me so wrong

0:17:370:17:42

# I can't take anymore

0:17:420:17:45

# And it looks like

0:17:450:17:50

# I'm never gonna fall

0:17:500:17:55

# In love

0:17:550:18:00

# Again

0:18:000:18:02

# Fall in love

0:18:050:18:12

# I'm never gonna fall

0:18:130:18:18

# In love

0:18:180:18:21

# Please don't make me fall

0:18:210:18:26

# In love

0:18:280:18:37

# Again. #

0:18:370:18:45

Thank you.

# Woman

0:18:560:18:58

# I can remember a woman

0:18:580:19:01

# Warm were her kisses and tender was she

0:19:010:19:06

# Lying there in my arms

0:19:060:19:10

# Why?

0:19:110:19:12

# Why, did you deceive me so?

0:19:120:19:16

# What devil inside made you go

0:19:160:19:19

# When I needed you most of all

0:19:190:19:24

# Oh daughter of darkness

0:19:240:19:26

# You'll be alone forever

0:19:280:19:31

# Daughter of darkness, gone is the love

0:19:310:19:35

# That we shared together

0:19:350:19:37

# Daughter of darkness

0:19:380:19:41

# Please stay out of my life, my life

0:19:410:19:45

# You took my heart and then you tore it apart

0:19:450:19:49

# You daughter of darkness

0:19:490:19:52

# Daughter of darkness, daughter of darkness

0:19:520:19:56

# Daughter of darkness. #

0:19:560:19:58

-Ladies and gentlemen, it's Tom Jones!

-Hey!

0:20:000:20:03

Hang about. Tom Jones is coming on in a minute. I'll introduce you.

0:20:180:20:22

Thrilled.

0:20:260:20:28

Thank you very much, Mr Wise. Thank you, Mr Morecambe.

0:20:280:20:32

-What are you going to do for us tonight, Tom?

-Exactly Like You.

0:20:320:20:35

Ah, great. One of my favourites. I could just have a word,

0:20:350:20:38

-if you don't mind.

-No, not at all.

0:20:380:20:40

-I've been watching you lately. The singing, oh, fabulous.

-Fabulous.

0:20:400:20:43

-Thank you.

-But you're not moving about enough.

-No.

-Really?

0:20:430:20:46

-What did you say your name was?

-Tom.

-We'll have to change that.

0:20:460:20:49

# This is the life for me. #

0:23:390:23:46

Ladies and gentlemen, this next song...

0:23:530:23:55

..or, I should say songs,

0:23:560:23:57

because there are three of them altogether,

0:23:570:23:59

were put together by a friend of mine called Mickey Newbury.

0:23:590:24:02

It goes like this.

0:24:020:24:04

# Oh, I wish I was

0:24:090:24:13

# In the land of cotton

0:24:130:24:18

# Old times there are not forgotten

0:24:180:24:23

# Look away

0:24:230:24:27

# Look away

0:24:270:24:30

# Look away, Dixieland

0:24:310:24:36

# Oh, I wish I was in Dixie

0:24:410:24:47

# Away, away

0:24:490:24:55

# In Dixieland, I make my stand

0:24:560:25:02

# To live and die in Dixie

0:25:040:25:11

# For Dixieland

0:25:150:25:18

# That's where I was born

0:25:180:25:21

# Early, Lord, one frosty morning

0:25:230:25:28

# Look away

0:25:280:25:32

# Look away

0:25:320:25:35

# Look away, Dixieland

0:25:350:25:42

# Glory, glory

0:25:470:25:52

# Hallelujah

0:25:530:26:00

# Glory, glory

0:26:020:26:07

# Hallelujah

0:26:080:26:14

# Glory, glory

0:26:160:26:21

# Hallelujah

0:26:230:26:29

# His truth

0:26:300:26:33

# Is marching on

0:26:330:26:43

# So, hush, little baby

0:26:560:27:01

# Don't you cry

0:27:010:27:07

# You know your daddy

0:27:090:27:14

# Is bound to die

0:27:150:27:21

# But all my trials, Lord

0:27:250:27:30

# Will soon be over

0:27:320:27:38

# Glory, glory

0:28:300:28:35

# Hallelujah

0:28:370:28:42

# His truth

0:28:440:28:46

# Is marching on

0:28:460:28:56

# His truth

0:28:580:29:00

# Is marching on

0:29:000:29:16

Yeah!

0:29:250:29:27

# Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans

0:29:280:29:31

# Way back up in the woods among the evergreens

0:29:310:29:33

# There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood

0:29:330:29:36

# Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode

0:29:360:29:39

# Who never ever learned to read or write so well

0:29:390:29:41

# But he could play the guitar just like a ringin' a bell

0:29:410:29:44

# Go, go, go Oh, Johnny, go, I mean go

0:29:440:29:48

# Oh, Johnny, go, I mean go,

0:29:480:29:51

# Go, Johnny, go, I said go

0:29:510:29:54

# Go, Johnny go, I mean go

0:29:540:29:56

# Johnny B. Goode. #

0:29:570:29:59

Rock and roll!

0:30:010:30:06

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:30:100:30:14

Thank you!

0:30:140:30:15

# What's new, pussycat? Whoa-a-whoa-a-whoa!

0:30:150:30:18

# What's new, pussycat? Whoa-a-whoa-a-whoa!

0:30:180:30:24

There are lots of women, maybe many million or more of them,

0:30:240:30:29

who'd be very thrilled to be sitting where I am now.

0:30:290:30:32

I can stretch out and touch you.

0:30:320:30:34

How do you feel about the treatment you get from women?

0:30:340:30:37

Er, very good, because I like to see people enjoying themselves

0:30:370:30:40

and I enjoy myself when I'm singing on stage.

0:30:400:30:43

And if the audience is, you know...

0:30:430:30:45

If I can turn them on, then I feel very happy about it.

0:30:450:30:49

Any funny incidents, something you'd remember when you're an old man?

0:30:490:30:54

The funniest thing, I think, we were on the M1 motorway,

0:30:540:30:57

and I went into a cafe.

0:30:570:30:59

A dangerous thing to do when you're Tom Jones!

0:30:590:31:02

I went into the gents' toilet and these girls ran in after me.

0:31:020:31:09

And came over the top of the door.

0:31:090:31:11

In the toilet.

0:31:110:31:12

Which I was very embarrassed about. I couldn't do anything about it.

0:31:120:31:16

You're now the highest paid entertainer in the world.

0:31:160:31:19

It's a rare occasion tonight that you're appearing here in Wales.

0:31:190:31:22

Which do you prefer, the stage, the theatre, cabaret or what?

0:31:220:31:26

I think cabaret is the best because everybody's enjoying themselves,

0:31:260:31:29

they're having a drink, they've had a meal.

0:31:290:31:32

I think it's the best place to be for people to see a performer, in a club.

0:31:320:31:38

WOMAN SPEAKS WELSH

0:31:380:31:40

Keep a cool head and...

0:31:400:31:43

Is it nice to be back home in Wales?

0:31:430:31:46

-Very nice.

-Tell us about Las Vegas, that sounds superb.

0:31:460:31:49

Next plane, I'll be out there with you.

0:31:490:31:51

We go back again in May.

0:31:510:31:52

We work a month a year over there, you know.

0:31:520:31:55

I bet you enjoy that.

0:31:550:31:56

Yeah, it's nice, very nice.

0:31:560:31:58

-What's it like being back home?

-Very good, we went up to Pontypridd today.

0:31:580:32:02

-Family?

-Mates and that. Yeah.

0:32:020:32:04

-You're looking very, very well.

-Thank you.

0:32:040:32:07

-And suntanned. Is that Las Vegas?

-No, that's make-up!

0:32:070:32:10

-Oh, that's a shame, you shouldn't have said that.

-It's the truth!

0:32:100:32:13

-Can you do me a little favour?

-What's that?

-For the heavy boys.

-Sure.

0:32:130:32:17

-Will you sing your medley for us tonight?

-Yes.

0:32:210:32:23

And Elusive Dream?

0:32:230:32:25

No, I won't be doing that.

0:32:250:32:28

Never mind.

0:32:280:32:29

-That will be good enough.

-OK.

-Thank you very much.

0:32:290:32:33

Hello, everybody, and welcome to Barbados,

0:33:060:33:08

the island they call The Happiness Island.

0:33:080:33:11

# I can see clearly now the rain is gone

0:33:130:33:17

# I can see all obstacles in my way

0:33:210:33:26

# Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind

0:33:280:33:33

# There's gonna be a bright, bright, sunshiny day

0:33:330:33:39

# There's gonna be a bright, bright, sunshiny day

0:33:410:33:47

# I think I can make it now the rain is gone

0:33:510:33:55

# All of the bad feelings have disappeared

0:33:580:34:03

# Here is my rainbow I've been praying for

0:34:050:34:11

# There's gonna be a bright, bright, sunshiny day. #

0:34:110:34:17

Basically, I'm a Welsh tenor with a flare for the blues.

0:34:170:34:22

# Come home

0:34:220:34:24

# Come home

0:34:240:34:26

# To where you belong... #

0:34:270:34:31

This marvellous house you've got here,

0:34:310:34:33

do you think of Wales with a kind of nostalgia now?

0:34:330:34:35

Erm, I think of Wales with nostalgia, yeah.

0:34:350:34:39

As I said, I was there for 24 years.

0:34:390:34:43

The telephone box by the side of the pool here

0:34:430:34:46

is from the bottom of Laura Street in Pontypridd.

0:34:460:34:51

It was our phone.

0:34:510:34:52

It's a big voice. How do you keep it well in trim?

0:34:520:34:55

Well, I was told...

0:34:550:34:59

I went to Berlin once, I was doing a European tour.

0:34:590:35:03

It was the first time I'd ever had trouble with my voice.

0:35:030:35:06

I was starting to get problems with it.

0:35:060:35:09

This doctor informed me that it was the dry air,

0:35:090:35:13

it was very low humidity in Berlin.

0:35:130:35:16

So I travel with humidifiers now in a trunk.

0:35:160:35:19

And also a little steam vaporiser.

0:35:190:35:22

And I drink a lot of water if I'm in a dry area.

0:35:220:35:25

So I had trouble in Berlin and then I had trouble in Las Vegas

0:35:250:35:29

because of exactly the same reason - low humidity.

0:35:290:35:32

I think that's maybe why a lot of great singers come out of Wales. Because of the rain!

0:35:320:35:37

Right now I'm delighted to say, ladies and gentlemen, Tom Jones.

0:35:430:35:47

APPLAUSE

0:35:470:35:49

# It's a song that just keeps playing on the radio

0:36:000:36:06

# And you know I haven't seen you for a while

0:36:070:36:12

# I close my eyes and think of you each lonely night

0:36:130:36:19

# And I wish that I could see you again

0:36:190:36:24

# Is it fate or is it luck that brings us back?

0:36:300:36:35

# Is it just a common point of view?

0:36:360:36:40

# Time has put a spell on you

0:36:420:36:45

# You never seem to change

0:36:450:36:48

# And I wish that I could see you again

0:36:480:36:54

# And I'll be here where the heart is

0:36:550:37:00

# Where the dreams that we've been after all come true

0:37:010:37:06

# You will find me here where the heart is

0:37:070:37:13

# I'll wait for you

0:37:130:37:16

# I'll wait for you. #

0:37:170:37:21

APPLAUSE

0:37:210:37:24

Not just welcome to the show,

0:37:250:37:26

but like everybody else has been saying over the last week,

0:37:260:37:29

-welcome back. Ten years.

-Yes. Thank you.

0:37:290:37:32

Here's a tricky question for you. What's the most unusual place you've ever publicly appeared?

0:37:320:37:37

Erm, as far as an audience is concerned, I think Japan.

0:37:370:37:41

The first time I went there. The second time was more western,

0:37:410:37:46

but the first time I went there, girls would run up to the stage

0:37:460:37:50

and want a kiss.

0:37:500:37:52

So in Great Britain or America or Canada, any English-speaking country, you give them a kiss.

0:37:520:37:59

So I bent down to give a Japanese girl a kiss, and she turned her cheek.

0:37:590:38:04

They're not allowed to kiss on the lips.

0:38:040:38:06

It's funny to have these girls charge up to the stage

0:38:060:38:09

and when you go to kiss them, they go... LAUGHTER

0:38:090:38:11

After this, as soon as we finish, you're away in a helicopter to Wales.

0:38:110:38:15

To Wales, to get... I want to see all my cousins.

0:38:150:38:18

The ones I haven't seen for a long time. We're having a get-together tonight.

0:38:180:38:23

It should be fun.

0:38:230:38:25

My cousins have had children and grandchildren that, some of them, I've never seen.

0:38:250:38:29

-Tom, thank you for finding time to come in.

-My pleasure.

-Tom Jones.

0:38:290:38:34

Top Of The Pops is all about new singles as well

0:38:350:38:37

so let's have a look right now at the Top Of The Pops Breakers.

0:38:370:38:41

Up 11 to this week's number 23 goes Tom Jones and a dancefloor smash, believe it or not.

0:38:430:38:48

It's Not Unusual.

0:38:480:38:50

# It's not unusual to have fun with anyone

0:38:500:38:54

# But when I see you hanging about with anyone

0:38:540:38:57

# It's not unusual to see me cry

0:38:590:39:03

# I wanna die

0:39:040:39:06

# It's not unusual to go out at any time

0:39:070:39:11

# But when I see you out and about it's such a crime

0:39:120:39:16

# If you should ever want to be loved by anyone

0:39:170:39:21

# It's not unusual

0:39:220:39:25

# It happens every day

0:39:250:39:27

# No matter what you say

0:39:270:39:29

# You'll find it happens all the time. #

0:39:300:39:32

APPLAUSE

0:39:320:39:35

Let's stop off at number 19,

0:39:350:39:36

the Breakfast Show Chartbeater this week, it was a hit when Prince did it,

0:39:360:39:39

it's the Art Of Noise with Tom Jones. All they want is a little "Kiss".

0:39:390:39:44

# You don't have to be beautiful

0:39:460:39:51

# To turn me on

0:39:510:39:54

# I just need your body, baby

0:39:550:39:58

# From dusk till dawn

0:39:580:40:03

# You don't need experience

0:40:030:40:07

# To turn me out

0:40:070:40:11

# You just leave it all up to me

0:40:110:40:15

# I'll show you what it's all about

0:40:150:40:19

# You don't have to be rich to be my girl

0:40:190:40:23

# You don't have to be cool to rule my world

0:40:230:40:27

# Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with

0:40:270:40:31

# I just want your extra time and your...

0:40:310:40:35

# Kiss

0:40:370:40:38

# You got to not talk dirty, baby

0:40:440:40:47

# If you wanna impress me

0:40:470:40:51

# You can't be too flirty, mama

0:40:520:40:56

# I know how to undress me

# Let me be your fantasy

0:41:010:41:04

# And maybe you could be mine

0:41:040:41:07

# You just leave it all up to me

0:41:090:41:12

# We can have a good time

0:41:130:41:15

# You don't have to be rich to be my girl

0:41:170:41:21

# You don't have to be cool to rule my world

0:41:210:41:25

# Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with

0:41:250:41:30

# I just want your extra time and your...

0:41:300:41:34

# Kiss

0:41:340:41:36

# Think I'd better dance now

0:41:360:41:38

# La la la

0:41:530:41:54

# Women and girls rule my world

0:42:180:42:22

# I said rule my world

0:42:220:42:24

# Act your age, mama, not your shoe size

0:42:270:42:31

# Maybe we could do the twirl

0:42:310:42:33

# You don't have to watch Dynasty

0:42:340:42:38

# To have an attitude

0:42:380:42:40

# You gotta leave it all up to me

0:42:430:42:46

# My love will be your food

0:42:460:42:49

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:43:110:43:15

Please welcome, Tom Jones and Cerys Matthews!

0:43:150:43:18

# I really can't stay

0:43:410:43:43

# But, baby, it's cold outside

0:43:430:43:46

# I've got to go away

0:43:460:43:48

# Oh, baby, it's cold outside

0:43:480:43:51

# This evening has been

0:43:510:43:53

# Been hoping that you'd drop in

0:43:530:43:55

# So very nice

0:43:550:43:57

# I'll hold your hand

0:43:570:43:59

# It's just like ice

0:43:590:44:01

# My mother will start to worry

0:44:010:44:04

# Beautiful, what's your hurry?

0:44:040:44:05

# My father will be pacing the floor

0:44:050:44:08

# Listen to the fireplace roar

0:44:080:44:10

# So really I'd better scurry

0:44:100:44:13

# Baby, don't, don't hurry

0:44:130:44:15

# Maybe a half a drink more

0:44:150:44:18

# Why don't you put some records on while I pour?

0:44:180:44:21

# The neighbours might think

0:44:210:44:24

Oh, baby, it's bad out there

0:44:220:44:24

# Say, what's in this drink?

0:44:240:44:27

# There's no cabs to be had out there

0:44:270:44:29

# I wish I knew how

0:44:290:44:31

# Your eyes are like starlight now

0:44:310:44:33

# To break this spell

0:44:330:44:35

# I'll take your hat

0:44:350:44:37

# Your hair looks swell

0:44:370:44:39

# I ought to say no, no, no, sir

0:44:390:44:44

Mind if I move a little closer?

0:44:420:44:44

# At least I'm gonna say that I tried

0:44:440:44:47

# What's the use of hurting my pride?

0:44:470:44:49

# I really can't stay

0:44:490:44:51

# Baby, don't hold out

0:44:510:44:53

BOTH: # Ah, but it's cold outside... #

0:44:530:44:58

Whoa!

0:45:000:45:01

All right.

0:45:010:45:03

# I simply must go

0:45:170:45:19

# But, baby, it's cold outside

0:45:190:45:21

# The answer is no

0:45:210:45:23

# I said it's cold outside

0:45:230:45:26

# The welcome has been

0:45:260:45:28

# I'm lucky that you dropped in

0:45:280:45:30

# So nice and warm

0:45:300:45:32

# Look out the window at that storm

0:45:320:45:36

# My sister will be suspicious

0:45:360:45:39

# God, your lips look delicious

0:45:390:45:40

# My brother will be there at the door

0:45:400:45:43

# Like waves upon a tropical shore

0:45:430:45:45

# My maiden aunt's mind is vicious

0:45:450:45:48

# Oooh, your lips are delicious!

0:45:480:45:51

# Maybe a cigarette more

0:45:510:45:53

# Never such a blizzard before

0:45:530:45:55

# I've got to go home

0:45:550:45:57

# Baby, you'd freeze out there

0:45:570:45:59

# Say, lend me a coat

0:45:590:46:01

# It's up to your knees out there

0:46:010:46:04

# You've really been great

0:46:040:46:07

# I thrill when you touch my hand

0:46:070:46:08

# But don't you see?

0:46:080:46:10

# How can you do this thing to me?

0:46:100:46:14

# There's bound to be talk tomorrow

0:46:140:46:17

# Making my life long sorrow

0:46:170:46:19

# At least there will plenty implied

0:46:190:46:22

# If you caught pneumonia and died

0:46:220:46:24

# I really can't stay

0:46:240:46:26

# Get over that hold out

0:46:260:46:28

BOTH: # Ah, but it's cold...

0:46:280:46:34

# Out...

0:46:340:46:38

# ..Side. #

0:46:380:46:44

# Want some whiskey in your water?

0:47:040:47:06

# Sugar in your tea?

0:47:060:47:08

# What's all these crazy questions they're askin' me?

0:47:080:47:12

# This is the craziest party that could ever be

0:47:120:47:15

# Don't turn on the lights

0:47:150:47:18

# Cos I don't wanna see

0:47:180:47:20

# Mama told me not to come

0:47:200:47:22

# Mama told me not to come

0:47:220:47:23

# Mama told me not to come

0:47:230:47:25

# She said that ain't the way to have fun, son

0:47:270:47:32

# Open up the window

0:47:360:47:38

# Let some air into this room

0:47:380:47:40

# I think I'm choking from

0:47:400:47:42

# The smell of stale perfume

0:47:420:47:44

# And the cigarette you're smoking

0:47:440:47:46

# About to scare me half to death

0:47:460:47:48

# Open up the window

0:47:480:47:49

# Let me catch my breath

0:47:490:47:51

# Mama told me not to come

0:47:510:47:53

# Mama told me not to come

0:47:550:47:57

# She said

0:47:580:47:59

# That's ain't no way to have fun, son... #

0:47:590:48:03

-Maybe I should've listened.

-Someone should have!

0:48:060:48:09

When you think of home, think of where you came from,

0:48:090:48:12

do you think one day you might go back there?

0:48:120:48:14

Yes, I would think so.

0:48:140:48:16

I mean, when the time comes to retire which I hope is still

0:48:160:48:19

a long way away.

0:48:190:48:20

I would think that it would be Wales, you know,

0:48:200:48:23

because that's where I come from, and that's where I want to end up in the end.

0:48:230:48:28

-No thoughts of retiring at all? You're 62 now?

-62 now, yeah.

0:48:280:48:32

-Three years till the bus pass.

-Yeah!

0:48:320:48:34

I've never known life without singing.

0:48:350:48:38

I've never known what it would be like.

0:48:380:48:40

So, um, I dread the day when I can't sing as well as I still do,

0:48:400:48:46

then I'll have to stop. But I'm not looking forward to it.

0:48:460:48:50

A lot of people look forward to retirement.

0:48:500:48:52

It's one thing that I'm not looking forward to at all.

0:48:520:48:55

The singer Tom Jones has been knighted at Buckingham Palace

0:48:550:48:59

for services to music.

0:48:590:49:00

The 65-year-old miner's son said accepting the knighthood

0:49:000:49:04

was "A great and a humbling honour."

0:49:040:49:06

This one tops it all. I mean, a knighthood is...

0:49:060:49:09

is fantastic. It's, um...

0:49:090:49:11

it's just different!

0:49:110:49:14

You know, and you don't think of it when you're a child,

0:49:140:49:17

when I was a kid I thought, "I'd love to get a hit record."

0:49:170:49:20

You never think about being a knight.

0:49:200:49:22

# They've all come to meet me

0:49:220:49:27

# Arms reaching, smiling sweetly

0:49:270:49:32

# It's good to touch the green, green grass of home

0:49:320:49:40

# The old home town looks the same

0:49:540:49:56

# As I step down from the train

0:49:560:50:01

# And there to meet me is my mama and papa

0:50:020:50:09

# Down the road I look and there runs Mary

0:50:110:50:17

# Hair of gold and lips like cherries

0:50:180:50:22

# It's good to touch the green, green grass of home

0:50:220:50:29

# Yes, they've all come to meet me

0:50:310:50:36

# Arms reaching, smiling sweetly

0:50:360:50:41

# It's good to touch the green, green grass of home

0:50:410:50:48

# The old house is still standing

0:50:510:50:55

# Though the paint is cracked and dry

0:50:560:51:00

# And there's that old oak tree that I used to play on

0:51:000:51:07

# Down the lane I'll walk with my sweet Mary

0:51:100:51:15

# Hair of gold and lips like cherries

0:51:150:51:21

# It's good to touch the green, green grass of home

0:51:210:51:27

# Then I awake and look around me

0:51:300:51:34

# At four grey walls that surround me

0:51:360:51:39

# And then I realise yes, I was only dreamin'

0:51:410:51:47

# For you see

0:51:470:51:49

# There's a guard and there's a sad old padre

0:51:490:51:54

# Arm in arm we'll walk at daybreak

0:51:550:51:59

# Then I will touch the green, green grass of home

0:52:000:52:05

# Yes, they'll all come to see me

0:52:080:52:13

# In the shade of that old oak tree

0:52:130:52:19

# As they lay me

0:52:190:52:21

# 'Neath the green, green grass of home. #
