Twins
Surfing idly on the internet, trying to connect with the outside world from the confines of my "office" - an ex-pigsty in the garden, I suddenly realise who it is that Tom reminds me of - "the Amercican songster" Tom Waits. Okay, so his voice might be subtly more baritone than Waits' cement-mixer growl, but pop up any picture on Google images and they look like twins. There are the same vulpine eyes looming under heavy brows and electric-shock hair. The same taste for eccentric hats (the current favourite is pink with a green trim). Let's hope the international stardom is the same, and as far as Tom Waits goes, a taste for truffles.
