Tom Jones's quotes

  • It's one extreme to the other. I've had a lot of crosses and Bibles given to me but then one woman made a ceramic penis - she figured that's what mine looked like, I suppose.
  • I'm a lyric man - I'm always looking for meaningful songs.
  • Not to be a name-dropper but Frank Sinatra once told me: "Tom, you don't have to hit everything hard. If you keep hammering everything, you're gonna hurt yourself."
  • When I started recording, I thought I'd be able to do all kinds of records: jazz, country, dance - and I've always wanted to do a gospel album.
