9 Things You Didn't Know About Tom Jones

5. He's Okay with Lowering the Bar and You Should To

http://youtu.be/zdb0mfp6TQE In 1988 Tom Jones recorded 'Kiss' with Art of Noise, which made it okay for men to rethink the idea that only hot women should be deserving of their attention when it comes to sex (not that was ever really an issue). Tom Jones said through song that he really doesn't give a crap what you look like, he'll do you. Literally. This is the first verse of 'Kiss'; You don't have to be beautiful To turn me on I just need your body, baby From dusk till dawn You don't need experience To turn me out You just leave it all up to me I'll show you what it's all about Of course, it may sound extremely misogynistic on the outside but again; Tom Jones. See previous example. And truthfully, this song was written by Prince, the Artist formerly known as Who Cares Just Sing Purple Rain, who has been compared as a mini-Tom Jones Sex Bomb yet ironically never seemed to drop the bar on who he shagged.

4. He Literally Is Musical Royalty

He joined the likes of Sir Mick Jagger, Sir Cliff Richard, Sir Elton John, Sir Paul McCartney, Semi-Sirs (if they weren't Irish) Bob Geldoff and Bono. I heard the annual picnics are amazing but nobody is allowed near a stereo.

Been there, done that but not too well. Continually financially restrained. Now (and still) lives in Western Canada and talks some hockey and parenting on ogieoglethorpe.blogspot.ca and watching trailers on 2minutemovies.blogspot.ca.
