He was given an OBE in 1998 before being knighted by Queen Elizabeth II in 2006 for his services to music. Many will also know Sir Tom Jones for his role as one of the ‘coaches’ on the hit ITV Show ‘The Voice UK’.

Tom Jones’ career in music began as the frontman for the Welsh beat group, ‘Tommy Scott and the Senators’ back in 1963. Jones and the group gained popularity both in Wales and nationally shortly after that.

His solo career began in 1964 with the release of ‘Chills and Fever’, which unfortunately for Jones did not chart. However, success was not far away for him, as his 1965 single ‘It’s Not Unusual’ became a massive international hit after it was promoted by the pirate radio station ‘Radio Caroline’.

‘It’s Not Unusual’ reached a peak of number one in the United Kingdom, whilst it also reached the Top Ten in the Charts in the United States. ‘Thunderball’ and ‘What’s New Pussycat?’ would follow soon after, with both songs earning positive critical acclaim.

Between 1969 and 1971, Jones hosted his own hit variety show named ‘This Is Tom Jones’, which led to a nomination for ‘Best Actor’ at the Golden Globes in 1970.

Over the course of the 1970s, he had a variety of hits, including ‘She’s a Lady’, ‘Till’, ‘The Young New Mexican Puppeteer’, and ‘Say You’ll Stay Until Tomorrow’. The latter of these songs reached number one in the United States, number 15 in the Billboard Hot 100 Chart, as well as number 40 in the UK Singles Chart.

Fast forward to 1987, Tom Jones had a hit with ‘A Boy from Nowhere, which went on to chart at number two in the United Kingdom. Then, in 1988, his cover that year of Prince’s hit single ‘Kiss’ reached number five in the UK and number 31 in the United States. The video for ‘Kiss’ won the MTV Video Music Award for Breakthrough Video that year. In 1989, Jones got a star on the iconic Hollywood Walk of Fame.

In 1991 he performed at the famous Glastonbury Festival that year. Then in 1993, he released the album ‘The Lead and How to Swing It’, and the first single, ‘If I Only Knew’, went up to 11th place in the UK Charts, and he performed this song at the 1994 MTV Europe Music Awards. In 1996, he appeared in Tim Burton’s Sci-Fi Comedy ‘Mars Attacks!’.

Then at the turn of the century in 1999, he collaborated in duets with several other famous artists, including the likes of the Cardigans, Natalie Imbruglia, Cerys Matthews, Van Morrison, Mousse T, Portishead, Stereophonics, and Robbie Williams for the album ‘Reload’. In that same year, he was awarded an OBE.

‘Reload’ proved incredibly popular, climbing to number one on the UK Chart, whilst also selling more than 4 million copies worldwide. ‘Sex Bomb’ was released as a single shortly after that, and it proved to be the most popular single on the album, with it achieving a spot in third on the UK Singles Chart.

In 2003, a year after the release of his album ‘Mr Jones’, Tom Jones was the recipient of the Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music. Then in 2004, Jones performed alongside the Pussycat Dolls and Carmen Electra in a performance of ‘You Can Leave Your Hat On’ in what was the seventh annual Vh1 Divas Concert.

Jones was the only male singer in a line-up that also included the likes of Patti LaBelle, Gladys Knight, and Debbie Harry.

To mark what was his 65th Birthday, he performed a concert in Ynysangharad Park, which was his first performance in Pontypridd since 1964 on 28th May 2005. Then in 2006, he was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II.

In May 2012, his album ‘Spirit in the Room’ had covers of songs that had been originally written by the likes of Paul McCartney, Paul Simon, Richard and Linda Thompson, Blind Willie Johnson, Tom Waits, and the Low Anthem.
