Tom Jones teamed up with German DJ and producer Mousse T. for "Sex Bomb", which started rolling out across Europe in November 1999 and didn't reach Britain until May 2000. It came off Reload, the Welsh singer's 34th album, as the second single abroad and the fourth at home.
It's a club-ready strut built for that big, brassy voice, and Europe ate it up: number one in France and Switzerland, a SNEP gold single award, and top-three placings in Austria, Germany, Iceland, Italy, Spain, the UK and Wallonia. Barry Maguire directed the video, the Peppermint Disco Mix slips in a sample of Sister Sledge's "All American Girls", and Mousse T. put a different version on Gourmet de Funk, his own debut solo album, in 2001.
