| Playing GREATEST LOVE SONGS on a romantic evening might be a good litmus test for prospective paramours. Whether they melt or run screaming will determine either a) their inability to resist the swaggering, dramatic vocals of Tom Jones or b) their inability to stand the swaggering, dramatic vocals of Tom Jones. This will, consequently, provide guidance for how to proceed with the prospective paramour. If said paramour goes gooey at the first swinging strains of "It's Not Unusual," a showcase for Jones's generous baritone and one of his first and best-loved hits, you can probably uncork the wine. | |
| Equally, if said paramour gets weak in the knees at Jones's stirring performance on slow burners like "My Foolish Heart" and "When I Fall in Love," light some candles. The sprightly feel of tunes like "Help Yourself" will provide a welcomed respite from tension, but if the paramour asks to be kissed during the passionate groove of "Love Me Tonight" (complete with mariachi horns) or the swelling orchestrations of "Can't Stop Loving You," you're in. Of course, if said prospective paramour runs screaming when you play GREATEST LOVE SONGS, good riddance. You've still got Tom Jones. | |
Artist Overview
With his deep, rich voice and undeniable sex appeal, Welshman Tom Jones ruled the pop charts in the 1960s and early '70s. His mixture of pure pop and Vegas-style swagger made him a major concert attraction and the target of the passionately flung underwear of excited female fans. His 1988 collaboration with Art Of Noise on Prince's "Kiss" was the start of a comeback that would last through the beginning of the 21st century.
