Urghhh...this man should be banned...he's simply abysmal...and so is his version of Kiss. Prince should never have allowed him to do it. I wouldnt let someone bastardise my songs like that.

I'm not certain but it's likely that Prince saw more money/sales/radio play from Tom's version than his own original take.

On the Brits just now they used the Kiss horns as Tom's signature intorduction...

Tom Jones has a great voice, and he's very talented. 40 years in the industry don't lie. Of course he's made a living out of stealing black music but hey! biggrin

As for the Prince cover... it's dreadful. I cannot fathom why someone would replace the lovely wahwah guitar with synth horns etc. Madness.

YAHHH! The Art Of Noise version is great in it's own way. It's more like an interpretation of the original version... the steely dan sample, the HOOAH from Frankie... OH MAN I LOVE that version.

Gonna go lissen to it right now in fact.

HUAH!

I'm taking some time off work so I've seen some crappy daytime TV ... they were talking about the Brits and about "Tom's great songs such as Kiss". They just assumed it was his song.
