Fiona Apple and DMX, two icons of Nineties music, made comebacks this week, with DMX playing a rare gig at S.O.B.'s in Manhattan, and Apple's forthcoming tour of small clubs selling out in a matter of minutes. Leonard Cohen recently released Old Ideas, his first album in new material in eight years. D'Angelo, who has been missing from the pop scene for over a decade, is touring and prepping a new album. Clearly it's a good time for long-gone artists to return to the spotlight, so our question for this weekend is: Which artist should be next to make a comeback?

Tom Waits | 2011

Only the genius of Tom Waits could combine the subject of mortality, a reoccurring theme in his work, with wordplay that name checks both Mick and Keith, whom he calls "Mr. Jagger" and "Mr. Richards," and the title of their magnum opus, "Satisfaction." And to show just how cool Waits really is, he even got Mr. Richards to play along, one of nine guest appearances the guitarist has made on three Waits albums. "This growling roadhouse stomp is a late-breaking response to the Stones' greatest hit," Rolling Stone said of the track.
