[source: NME.com] Tom Jones did a version of Arctic Monkeys' "I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor" at Sunday's Concert For Diana at Wembley Stadium. Before performing the radically altered version, the Welsh crooner said: "Now we're going to do something a little different. Something new." The commemorative gig also saw Kanye West perform new song "Stronger" and promise the crowd he would "rip this stage in half". He was backed by an all-female string section, a DJ and dancers all dressed in red as he raced through a selection of songs, including "Jesus Walks", "Gold Digger" and "Touch The Sky". Earlier, Lily Allen performed "LDN" and "Smile" in a distinctive blue dress against an animated background. Pharrell Williams also entertained the crowd with a string of hits, including N.E.R.D. track "She Wants To Move" and Snoop Dogg's "Drop It Like It's Hot".
