While many of his contemporaries faded into nostalgia, Tom Jones maintained his relevance through a series of brilliant artistic reinventions. In 1988, he collaborated with the electronic pop group Art of Noise on a cover of Prince’s "Kiss." The music video and the track’s modern, funk-infused production introduced Jones to MTV audiences and a completely new generation of fans.
