 | I will also be quite interested to hear the Tom Jones take on Love and Blessings. It is a great song and one of my favourites on the album. |

| Tom Jones still has a nice voice -- used to Love his show on TV. Think he used to say good night in Welsh. Some of the ladies in the audience used to get quite silly over him. |

 | Tom Jones does one singing style - fog horn.... BAAAAMMMM!!!! I can´t see him doing the song justice to be honest.
I Love covers, Paul´s ´Here Comes The Sun´ from, the last tour is a real gem! |

| Maybe we should wait to hear the song before passing judgment.! |

| I don´t think this is quite fair -- Tom Jones is quite talented although he has acquired an unfortunate "Las Vegas" image in recent years. |

 | I think it is very good that he decided to cover a new song by Paul. As usually - if someone likes the cover version he will begin to explore Pauls new album.
Thats way better than the usual cover versions of Graceland songs or the Old S&G tunes.
It will be very interesting to hear that, no matter if you like Tom Jones or not it has some impact on Pauls work in those days. Love and blessings is a wonderful song, one of my favourites on the new album. I wonder if they will change it´s style and produce a more upbeat version.
What I do not expect is that they will release this cover as a single...
BTW: The best song by Maca in the last...1-2 centuries...is also on the list. (I Want To) Come Home

| I´d just like to point out that I never said Tom Jones doesn´t have a good voice, I´ll just be surprised if he can carry a Love & Blessings off. I´m happy to be proved wrong! |

| That´s ok Danny. It was just the reference to the Fog Horn that had me wondering!
Love this

 | Agree Brenda. I think he´s done a good job of Cohen´s Tower of Song. I do hope he does LOVE & BLESSINGS justice - it is my favourite off SBSW. |
