TJI Question Of The Month For May: Just One Track
Saturday, May 1st, 2010There’s been lots of rumor and talk among lots of people about the new Tom Jones CD due — allegedly — this month. Tom has said it’s a “gospel-type” set in the style of a Clapton CD. TJI has also heard it is a “collection of songs that have been meaningful to Tom over the years.” Whatever it is, it is eagerly awaited.
Now, let’s say you had some input into the songs included on the CD. The May Question of the Month is:
What one song — any song originally sung by Tom or anyone else — would you include on this CD is you had a say?
Remember, just one title, please.

You gave me a mountain is one of my fav Elvis songs and would love Tom to sing it i can hear it in my head.

Back in the mid to late 90′s there was a techno-dance style band out there called La Bouche. They had a ballad on an album called “Do You Still Need Me”. At first listen all those years ago, I immediately thought of Tom.

I Can’t Unlove You – the Kenny Rogers song that came out not too long ago…

Grandma’s Hands
May 1st, 2010 at 10:00 am
My choice would be Grandma’s Hands.
May 1st, 2010 at 12:24 pm
Papa was a Rolling Stone
May 1st, 2010 at 2:04 pm
I’m with Debbie, i think that Grandma’s Hands could be a great track.

Life’s Railway to Heaven is a wonderful Gospelsong
May 1st, 2010 at 2:34 pm
I totally agree with Brian … “You Gave Me a Mountain”
May 1st, 2010 at 3:51 pm
Autumn Leaves. Why? Watch the video on Youtube. It’ll melt your heart!
May 1st, 2010 at 4:46 pm
I would pick ” The Reason “
May 1st, 2010 at 4:55 pm
I would love to hear Tom sing several songs. But keeping to the rules I think that “Git me some” is one I would like.
May 1st, 2010 at 5:58 pm
I’d have to say “With These Hands”.
May 1st, 2010 at 8:35 pm
“Armstrong” written by the late John Stewart. Tom has an amazing ability to tell a story through song.

Come home rhonda boy

My Yiddishe Mama, a great song for mothers.
May 2nd, 2010 at 4:52 am
I’d love to hear Tom do “Stand By Me” by Ben E.King
May 2nd, 2010 at 10:49 am
“You’ll Never Walk Alone”
May 2nd, 2010 at 12:52 pm
“Till”
May 2nd, 2010 at 6:50 pm
Till

Tom has to record “Git Me Some” and “The Reason” for posterity. I’ve seen his performance of these songs live and they are very moving…each in their own way.
May 3rd, 2010 at 3:20 pm
If I can dream
May 3rd, 2010 at 5:17 pm
This is both a consternating and ridiculous question. With his voice, there is just too much that he could kill. Almost any song with strong vocals would be in his reach. I’d love to hear him do “Everybody Wants to Rule the World”.
May 3rd, 2010 at 5:53 pm
Gospel, how about a little Amazing Grace?

I’m also looking forward very much to that new CD, can’t wait to hold it in my hands
.
Why not include some Frank Sinatra, for example “It was a very good year” ?
May 4th, 2010 at 10:16 am
In 1994 and 1995 Tom sang I Can’t Stand For Falling Down it is truly captivating to hear him sing this song I would love to hear him record this song.
May 4th, 2010 at 2:04 pm
OK. loved this song when it was in the set list
” I Like The Way You Move ” but I love Tom the best when he sings anything with soul and anything that is The Blues 
May 4th, 2010 at 2:53 pm
The Reason

“one” u2

I still stick with “Till”. Glad a couple of other fans agree. Listen closely and you might just change your mind and agree with us. Of course my memory of watching Tom sing the song helps a lot!
