Sir Tom Jones opens up on retiring as he asks 'How long is this voice going to last?'

Sir Tom Jones has no plans of retiring just yet, but during an episode of The Voice, he did question how long his voice was going to last

Sir Tom Jones has become a staple on The Voice and while he has no plans of stopping just yet, he did make a candid admission about his career coming to an end.

Sir Tom, who was joined by fellow judges will.i.am, LeAnn Rimes and new duo Danny Jones and Tom Fletcher, took a moment to reflect on his impressive career and that he can't believe he is 84 this year.

"It's a wonderful life, you know, show business," Sir Tom said to his co-stars.

"When you perform on stage and you get that love coming back from the audience. You think 'What could be better than this?' and that's the way I still feel today. Like I did when I was a kid."

Black Eyed Peas singer will.i.am replied: "To see you here, still being that inspiration and still being active, is just mind-boggling."

In a candid admission, the Sex Bomb singer admitted: "It is to me as well. As the years go on, you think 'How long is this voice going to last?'. I'm on stage and I open up and there it is and I think 'Is that voice coming from me?' and that's the God's honest truth, you know. I'm 84 this year."

Viewers of the show also agreed and flocked to the comment sections after the official The Voice account posted the clip to social media.

"He is ageless. His voice is as powerful as it was when I was a little girl watching Mom leaving to see him concert. That was a very long time ago," one fan complimented.

"You are the man Tom no one else could even compare your age and your voice amazing. Legend," someone else said before a third added: "Sir Tom you are sensational and your voice is magnificent, it still gives me chills and fever. Bless you."

One added: "I’m still crushing on Tom Jones and I’m 61."

Another went on: "Tom Jones, you are amazing. Just saw you in New York City and you are correct. Is that voice still coming from you? You were fabulous and unbelievable concert so glad I had the opportunity to see you again. Any chance you get go see Tom Jones live it is like no other experience and he sings with passion and from his heart. May you have many more years to spread your voice to those who love music."

Sir Tom and will.i.am are two of the original judges on The Voice, and this year, they were joined by newcomers LeAnn, Danny and Tom. The trio replaced by coaches Anne Marie and Olly Murs.

And while Sir Tom has no plans of leaving the show, his former co-star Anne Marie previously discussed the singer retiring.

Speaking to Express.co.uk and other press, the 2002 singer said: "He feels like every time he does a show, he said to us.."Because I was like, 'Are you bored? Are you done?

"I was like, 'You have experienced so much and nothing is new to you', and he said, 'Every time I hear a new voice, it is the best feeling ever'."

"He just loves it," the pop star added. "He just loves it."

The Voice is available to watch on the ITV Hub.
