 Tom Jones: Busks on the streets of London
Legendary Welsh singer Tom Jones has performed in central London on Wednesday to raise money for a cancer charity.
Hundreds of music lovers gathered in front of the Royal Festival Hall on the south bank of the River Thames in central London to enjoy the songs sang by Sir Tom Jones which includs "It's Not Unusual" and "Green Green Grass of Home" plus his own versions of rock'n'roll classics like Jerry Lee Lewis' hit "Great Balls Of Fire".
Some female fans even chipped in with impromptu backing vocals and earned a good-natured laugh from Sir Tom Jones. The crowd was so thick that security guards had to clear a way for the singer at the end of his set.
June, who watched the outdoor gig with her husband Nigel, said, "We just happened to be walking past and I heard this singing, and I thought it sounded like Tom Jones. He came across as very nice -- not at all flash".
Tom Jones, who was accompanied by an acoustic guitarist, raised more than £460 playing for Cancer Research, as part of the BBC Two Culture Show's Busking Challenge, which sees leading acts perform in public places for charity. |
