Fan Fare, What's New, Pussycat?
Here’s where you’ll find TJ photos and stories that don’t fit into any other categories. It is, as its name says, just for fans — and, hopefully, for fun.
Today, On The 2nd Anniversary of TJI.com, We Want To Thank You
Tuesday, October 9th, 2007We want to thank you all so much for making tomjonesinternational.com a success.
Since the site’s launch on October 10, 2005, we’ve tried to serve you, the fans of the best singer in the world, the best way we know how — with news, information and celebration of Sir Tom and his career.
Yes, we’ve hit a few bumps in the road and have come up against fans with “issues” but, in all, it’s been a terrific experience.
We are honored by your support and share your deep admiration for this man with the extraordinary voice. We are all so lucky to have been able to see him perform and listen to him sing.
To celebrate, here’s Tom in May, 2005 at Ponty Park, performing our “theme song.”
Thank you for allowing us to be part of your TJ lives. And for being part of ours.
—Ellen & Ursula

Congratulations to you both on making this site as good as it is and such a joy for all Tom’s fans. I almost choked when I read your first lines in this topic; thought you were about to retire…or worse. Then I read the caption….Happy Anniversary, Girls, you’ve done a great job!!! I think Sir Tom would be proud!!
October 9th, 2007 at 11:36 pm
All my best wishes to you both and long life to TJI.com. As we say in French : “c’est si bon” every morning, while having a cup of coffee to read news about our beloved Tom. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Je vous aime.

We love this Tom Jones site. Kep up the good work.
October 10th, 2007 at 3:45 am
It’s you we should thank: for this superb website. It’s a class act….just like Tom….and truly befits an artist of his stature. Congratulations on two splendid years and here’s to many more…….

Congratulations to you both on your success. This is truly a classy website. You always keep it up to date and newsworthy. It does not go unappreciated. It’s the first thing I open in the morning. It was also a pleasure meeting you both in Las Vegas in August. I am a Jersey girl and look forward to going to Vegas a few times a year to see “Our Man” and meet new people. Keep up the good work!

Thank you! Your site’s the best for updates, news and reviews. You have the true fan’s best interest, without a doubt. A collector’s website.

I have been a member of Tom Jones fan clubs in different forms since 1969 when I discovered “THE VOICE,” but this site is unquestionably SIMPLY THE BEST!!!! I hope you never stop supporting The Man,The Legend, “THE VOICE” Tom Jones
October 10th, 2007 at 8:13 am
Two years and you’ve made it to this milestone with few bumps. Congratulations!
What makes TJI different from any other informational Tom Jones sites is the interaction of Tom fans.
For many years we’ve had to deal with fan clubs (or lack of) with just information that was given on a “need to know basis.” Not that there is anything wrong with this now or in the past, but it didn’t give Tom Jones fans a special connection to one of — not the best — master showmen in the world.
Fan interaction is essential to the longevity of a performer. It keeps fans interested in their favorite singer and the greatest rewards is that Tom Jones at age 67 acknowledges this and because of it, he is still performs today with such passion and devotion .
Tom has been most gracious in receiving his fans on a professional and human level. You can see this in his expression when he talks or shakes hands with you or when he is more than willing to be photographed with his fans. It is a remarkable relationship which has done far better than most marriages over a 40-year period.
Again, this would not be possible without the fan dedication and fan sites such as TJI that involve and get fans to interact with news, thought and comment.
I want to congratulate Ellen and Ursula for creating such a great place in the world of Tom Jones. It is not a bad stop if you want to get away from the daily grind of life….thank Tom Jones for creating this universal plane where most people can get along, and just for a little while — enjoy life a little more.
October 10th, 2007 at 9:07 am

There are TJ websites and then there is this,”THE” Tom Jones website. I’m sure The Voice himself would be just so proud to know what a wonderful and informative site this is. ( who knows, maybe he actually reads it)! You guys have a knack for keeping the fans coming back. Thank you and here’s to many more years of success and fun.

Thank you so much for your efforts with this site Ellen and Ursula, but most importantly thank you for your friendship. Being a Tom Jones fans wouldn’t be nearly as much fun without the two of you. Looking forward to Vegas and meeting you in December.
