Sir Tom Jones' hit song and Welsh rugby anthem Delilah will no longer be a formal fixture at the Principality Stadium, not being played at the stadium or sung by choirs.
While the Welsh Rugby Union removed Delilah from its half-time entertainment and music playlist during international matches in 2015, while also requesting guest choirs not to sing it more recently, the ballad has now been officially removed from choirs' playlists.
The song, released in 1968 when it reached No. 2 in the charts, is about a jealous lover stabbing his unfaithful partner. One line reads: “I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door; she stood there laughing, I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more.”
