The 68-year-old star says fellow Welsh singer Duffy is top of his list for his new duets album.
When asked who he’d like to work with he immediately named Duffy, saying: “Because she’s Welsh and she can sing. Not just because she is Welsh. I’d like to do something with her, she’s something special.”
Duffy – who had a UK number one hit with her song Mercy – is currently touring promoting her debut album Rockferry in the US.
The 24-year-old blonde has laughed off rumours the Delilah singing legend is her real father.
She said: “I’m dealing with this every day. It’s kind of bizarre. You’ve got to laugh.”
Tom made a very successful comeback in 1999 with his covers and duets album Reload. He teamed up with a string of Welsh stars including former Catatonia singer Cerys Matthews, Kelly Jones from the Stereophonics and James Dean Bradfield of the Manic Street Preachers.
