It took a bit of rock & roll nobility in the form of Sir Tom Jones to show those young whippersnappers how it's really done, in his performance at the Concert for Diana, which took place Sunday at London's Wembley Stadium. At the star-inundated event, a benefit organized by Princes William and Harry to honor their late mother, Princess Diana, the 67-year-old Jones showed why all must bow down and call him "Sir," after delivering a full-throttle version of the Arctic Monkeys' 'I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor' that obliterated even the slightest whiff of preciousness from the song. Download what is now officially the definitive version of the song the Welsh crooner snatched from the lads from Sheffield like a gorilla grabbing a rattle from a sleeping infant.

The MAN always manages to please the audience!! He did a fantastic version of this song, and think the Arctic Monkeys would be proud!!
