About this sound

A short clip of Tom Jones singing Delilah, the anthem Welsh rugby fans belt out on match days, used for stadium singalongs and sports edits.

This is a fifteen second excerpt of Delilah sung by Tom Jones, centred on the big singalong chorus that fills stadiums. His powerful baritone rises over piano and brass, building to the familiar refrain that crowds join in unison. In a rugby context the clip feels communal and rousing rather than intimate, turning a dramatic love song into a terrace anthem. Played over match footage or a fan reaction, it instantly signals Welsh rugby pride, nostalgia and a packed stand singing together at full volume.

Pro tip

Place the chorus entry right as a try is scored or the camera cuts to singing fans, and let it run uninterrupted for the full fifteen seconds. Duck crowd noise underneath, avoid chopping the refrain mid line, and do not loop it.

How people use it
