Sir Tom Jones has said he was going to record My Way before it was offered to Frank Sinatra.
The Welsh pop superstar, who recently released his 41st studio album titled Surrounded By Time, said songwriter Paul Anka had originally suggested he sing on the hit.
But Anka’s music publisher overruled him and the song went to Sinatra and was released in 1969, with the US crooner’s version spending a total of 75 weeks in the UK top 40 – the second most of all time.

There s a fascinating clip on YouTube of Sir Tom Jones interviewing Stevie Wonder in 1993.
For most of the conversation they re on an equal footing, whether reminiscing about their childhood or duelling over the vocals on Superstition. But then Sir Tom brings up Wonder s writing. It s great you can express yourself but I m not a songwriter, he confesses. I can t do that. I have to sing songs that are already there.
The moment is laden with pathos. Sir Tom is both in awe of Wonder s work, and humbled by his own inability.
