Most acts (even very young ones covering this tune I have heard) go down a step with "mine, mine, mine" part of the song. Sir Tom goes for it with little effort. In my opinion, he is in Tony Bennett, Johnny Mathis, and a few others' company where time has been very kind with their respective vocal chords. Seems to me they have taken good care of their bodies very well throughout the years.

His new live DVD with guest star Alison Krauss is fabulous. Recorded for PBS' Soundstage show. Does a nice version of Run On and pays homage to Elvis before singing it. If you like Tom, especially his scaled down last several 'back to roots' albums, you will enjoy this concert
