Why Anne-Marie found performing before Tom Jones ‘pretty mad’

"(It was) pretty mad, considering that my audience was Sir Tom, Olly, Will and the people on the screens watching at home. It's mad. To go from your life being on tour, to not having any of that at all, is quite a mental thing to go through," she said

London, Jan 4 (IANS) Pop star Anne-Marie found performing in front of veteran singer Tom Jones pretty mad. She is a coach alongside singers Tom Jones, Olly Murs and rapper will.i.am on “The Voice UK”. In October, Olly got her to sing during the auditions of the show.

“(It was) pretty mad, considering that my audience was Sir Tom, Olly, Will and the people on the screens watching at home. It’s mad. To go from your life being on tour, to not having any of that at all, is quite a mental thing to go through,” she said, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

“And then my first performance of 2020 is in front of Sir Tom Jones. That was quite a moment! I’ll remember it forever,” she added.

Anne-Marie had earlier revealed that she wants to make her fans “feel better” about themselves.

“When they’re listening to my album, or even just one song, I want them to feel the music, feel the vocal, feel the lyrics. That’s my aim, really, and each song is just to make sure it makes someone feel better,” she had said.

For Anne-Marie, focussing on positive things amid the Covid pandemic is important.

“There’s a lot of bad stuff going on in the world and we almost have to see the light and bring ourselves to see the positives. It has taken so long but I have finally gotten there,” she had said.
