Sir Thomas Jones Woodward has performed in numerous concerts and sold more than 100 million records and he’s not, so to speak, resting on his laurels.

“I love to make people happy,” he said during a 20-minute exclusive phone interview with Funfare (he was calling from Australia which is part of his Asian concert tour that includes the Philippines on March 28 at the Araneta Coliseum), “and I’m doing it for as long as I can.”

After the 1965 song It’s Not Unusual catapulted him to fame (and fortune), Tom Jones hosted the show This is Tom Jones which was telecast in both the US and UK. It has been great history since then.

As Jones would want it during his concerts, you can read the following interview to the tune of any Tom Jones hit and, why not, dance to it...Sexbomb, maybe?

Do you remember the last time you were in Manila?

MANILA, Philippines - Thousands of Filipino fans rocked the night away on Tuesday as the American emo-rock band "Paramore" held their first Philippine concert at the SM Mall of Asia concert grounds.

MANILA, Philippines - All roads lead to the Araneta Coliseum in Cubao, Quezon City tomorrow, March 9 for a memorable evening of timeless R&B and soul sounds from two of the biggest names in contemporary pop music who gained fame for their achievements in the fields of R&B, rock and soul music.

R&B/soul singer and songwriter Michael McDonald will combine talent and style with rock and soul star Boz Scaggs as they wow Pinoy fans with their greatest hits during their much-awaited back-to-back concert.

To be mounted by Ovation Productions, Michael McDonald and Boz Scaggs Live In Manila! promises a new concert experience showcasing the finest R&B and soul music that only the two singing legends can provide.

Michael McDonald is an American R&B/soul singer and songwriter whose husky, soulful baritone voice made him one of the most recognizable artists of the past 25 years and, perhaps, the greatest “blue-eyed soul” singer.

His extraordinary ability to bridge rock, adult contemporary and soul led to his recognition as a leading solo singer and backing vocalist during the California pop/rock era in the late ‘70s.
