When looking the video, seems Tom Jones is a better singer than Paul Anka, his voice is higher, but Paul is a very special singer to, each person has is own style and voice to interprating a song, bove of them are great artits, and that's why the choice of the song and the tempo is important for an artist!
Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake did this song better on their Barry Gibb Talk Show parody. Tom is good but Paul Anka is a better songwriter than singer. Didn't mesh well.
I love Tom Jones, but he really should not have done this! He would have been better by himself as someone else here suggeted. Paul Anka is a great song writer (he did write "She's A Lady", but he can't sing that either!) There are many reasons he should stick to the writing & let others do the singing & this is a great example of that fact!!
Listen to 1:11 - 1:14= zenith for all of white humanity.
I agree, TJ is the real deal, PA proves that what God takes away in height, He doesn't make up for in talent!!!!
As for the band: considering there ain't no horns in the song, but they're all there, makes me think its a union thing. The guitar/keyboards (its all synth anyway) are workin in but the drummer aint. Maybe backing tracks, live vocal. Was coming in vogue around this time. Plenty of real deal out there!
This is pretty sad. I nearly wizzed on myself when I first saw this. What's funnier is the comments that you guys are posting. This is like the Lawrence Welk band goes disco.
anyone know what show this is from? Is the band really
playing, or os ot tracked...the guitarists look like they're 'grooving' and every now and then a cymbal moves...but they go to great lengths to NOT SHOW the band at all...anyone know the answers?
Candy Staton made a cover for a big classic for the Bee Gees, from Main Couse album at 1975.
This song is a great R&B song, writen by Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb.
