Sir Tom Jones has stunned the audience and judges alike with another solo performance on The Voice UK. 

Just last week, Jones belted out an acapella version of Solomon Burke's hit 'Cry To Me' which took the virtual audience by complete surprise. 

This time around Sir Tom decided to channel his inner Elvis Presley with an incredibly tender performance of his song 'With These Hands'. 

Jones also went on to share a special story about his relationship with the King of Rock and Roll Elvis Presley himself after being prompted by fellow judge Olly Murs. 

Murs asked: “Tom, was there anyone you were nervous singing with?”

“Well, Elvis Presley I sang with,” Sir Tom replied. “I was excited.”

“Tom sang with Elvis Presley, isn’t that mad?” Olly said to his fellow judges.

“Well, I mean Elvis was the one of course, I met him in LA in 1965 with a ballad out called 'With These Hands',” Sir Tom said.

“And he was coming towards me and he was singing ‘With these hands, I will cling to you.’

Just check out how in awe the rest of the judges are with Tom. It certainly shows that the 80-year-old has still got it.
