Happy birthday to the legendary Sir Tom Jones!

In celebration of the Welsh singer turning 80 years old yesterday, we're throwing it back to earlier this year when he performed 'It's Not Unusual' live on The Voice UK.

With a career stretching over five decades, Tom has blessed us with countless classics over the years, from 'Delilah' and 'What's New Pussycat?' to 'Sexbomb' and 'She's A Lady' — but this song has always remained one of our favourites.

And there's no stopping the music icon, as he has just vowed to keep singing "as long as there's breath in my body."

Speaking on BBC Radio 2 over the weekend, Tom said: "The memories are tremendous and I don't want to stop. To reach 80 and to have such wonderful memories and to be still doing it and still making a point, or trying to - thank you to everybody that has been with me, the audience.

"God has been good to me and my voice is still there. So as long as it's there I wanna get up ... singing live to people is the thing."
