Ps: I see the requests are flying, and I agree with most, but I'd love to throw my vote in, for "This is a Man's World"... James Brown & Pavorotti! Talk about GOOSE BUMPS!!😉
New subscriber & absolutely addicted to you guys. You brighten my days. Have So many I'd love to see you react to. Kid Rock Amen Miranda Lambert gunpowder & lead Janis Joplin me & Bobby mcgee
6:11 to cover Janis’s sinful dance moves, please enjoy Jesus playing the saxophone. 😅😂 🎷 Janis was pushing Tom to his *limit* in this performance, and he didn’t disappoint! One of the few women who ever could, and Tom was one of the few people who could keep up with Janis’s crazy-beautiful energy. ❤️❤️❤️
James Brown is church too! Don’t fuss. Tom Jones is a great entertainer but Janis Joplin was a force of nature who came and went like a summer storm. He was outgunned here 😝
I fully agree, and I was so disappointed they didn’t even comment on Janis, one of the Giants of the industry , and she was taken way too soon ❤️❤️🇦🇺🇦🇺
This was so cool. Hope you get into some more Janis Joplin. Maybe check out her live performance at Monterey Pop of “ Ball and Chain”. She was influenced by one of the great female blues artist “Big Mama Thornton”
It's funny one of y'all said james brown vibes and the other one said church vibes have y'all ever seen the james brown movie get on up if not check it out you'll see he was influenced a lot by church so o can see why y'all both said church and james brown this a great song both singers have great voices and seemed tobe enjoying themselves which made the song even more enjoyable and if y'all haven't reacted any janis joplin y'all should check her out ball and chain piece of my heart are just two of her great songs🔥🎶🔥
I don't know if you noticed what they say to each other they looked at each other they danced with each other and at the end they hugged each other they don't do that today which is what I miss from a duet they also knew the song heck they don't even do that when they're married on stage I miss those type of duet Tom Jones as many of them
I remember being excited for the summer Tom Jones Variety Show. My mother and aunts would be swooning over Tom. But Tom had top acts on his show. Underwear throwing at Tom on every show. Loved it!
I just found your video for aerosmith don't wanna miss a thing, and I instantly subscribed.... So my face seeing you watching Tom Jones as a welsh girl beamed! You guys are awesome, honestly, instant subscriber, best wishes from Wales! ❤️🏴
He was knighted by Queen Elizabeth and is now Sir Tom Jones and is 80 and still has a fantastic voice, Sadly Janiis died soon after this performance. Sir Tom and Elvis were great friends
First of all Half and Jai I love your reactions. I am a Boomer listening to this back in the day. It was raw and real. Now I am 68 and those are bygone days. This was real heart and soul music. Today...ugh. I love that you appreciate it. But as they say history repeats itself. Time to bring it back home. Do I hear an AMEN!
What a duet is right! You should check out Tom Jones and Tanya Tucker sin ghb ing Help Me Make It Through The Night. A lot of sexual flirtation going on between them.
love your reactions bur there's too much difference in the audio of the performances and your commentary. I turn up to hear you then the music comes back on blasting tooooo loud
I agree i hear the James Brown vibe too - my plan is to one day go to a church in the south and sit in and listen to gospel - i always loved the sound of gospel music - what better way than to do it in person
Tom's voice is transcendent! And Janis's had this bluesy souls! This amazing! As far as the actors Tom kind of looks like, I'm thinking you're thinking either Gene Hackman, who's hair was like that when he played Lex Luthor in the 70's Superman movie. The other actor, is William Shattner by the 70's had hair like that, and both had a passing resemblance to each other and Tom
Highly suggest you react to Dusty Springfield's "Can I get a witness" a lot of UK Artists were influenced by soul and RnB from the states especially Motown. There's even a genre in the UK That's called "Northern Soul"
I am a year late to this reaction but I just wanted to say: at the 3:00 mark Half ponders if Tom Jones resembles an actor. I always thought Tom looked a bit like Bert Convy who was an actor, singer and game show host in the 70's and 80's. He tragically passed from a brain tumor in 1991 (at 57 years old).
You couldn't possibly get through everyone's so I just want you to know I didn't unsubscribe because of anything personal AT ALL... just to check out reaction sites with less traffic. Love light and peace from Scotland. Oh and of course good vibes .👍✌
The actor you re thinking about has to be James Caan (played Sonny in The Godfather). I like you two a lot, I think you re genuinely great people. Keep jivin, my friends.
A great duet with Tom Jones and Cerys Matthews (also Welsh like Tom) is Baby it's cold outside. Please have a listen . Also if you can fit it in Luka .by Sussanne Vega please. You have to listen to lyrics . Music is good song is sad . Well worth a listen... 👍✌
Tom was good. Janis was in another league altogether. Her biggest influence was Otis Redding. At the peak of her short reign, she was unbeatable. I hope she is singing with Otis, wherever they are now.
Please look up Cry baby and Piece of my heart by Janis. They will show you why she was such an influence on my generation. No body could put their soul into a song like Pearl. 💖💖💖
I'll bet you anything it was all freestyle dance it was more about the singing and not the choreography. Oh and to the comment about the actor, Tom Jones was an international Superstar so it would be more like the actor looked like Tom Jones not the other way around... Just saying! I was a young teen when the show is on, my mom watched it religiously ⛪! Tom Jones was considered a big sex symbol and his dancing and mannerisms were pretty racy 4 back then!
I subscribed and have watched a lot of your videos but I don't know if I have saw them all. Just so I don't request anything you have done already. Do you have a list of what you have already done. I don't rate this song as much as some you have done. I know you have thousands of followers. Could you try and fit Luka in please .
And this is just one reason why us old folks aren't impressed with most of the new stuff. We got spoiled by the best. And hey, is there a difference between listening to James Brown and going to church?

Okay, white dude checking in here, but how much of a difference is there between James Brown and black church music?
Hey Half , great reaction ...the actor that i think you are talking about is that one from the godfather , Jimmy Caan that played the older brother on the family , and the two really reminds of each other phisically...
Just checked and you have not done this one from Tom yet, and trust me this is a side of Tom you want to see, lmao, ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KkKTMoRs-TU.html great reaction guys, thank you.
