Stereophonics formed in 1992 and was originally known as "Tragic Love Company," taking one word from each member's favourite band. The band first consisted of Kelly Jones (vocals/guitar and songwriter), Richard Jones (bass), and Stuart Cable (drums). Cable was fired by the other two members of the band in September 2003, and the band replaced him on the road with the former drummer for The Black Crowes, Steve Gorman. After a decade's worth of studio albums (4 number 1's) the band scored its first number 1 single with Dakota, the first single of their fifth album . The recording of this album demanded the inclusion of a new drummer, Argentinian-Venezuelan Javier Weyler.

Stereophonics

It sickens me to see the photograph in front of me
Carnation couloured pink stand aside and take a drink
Night club another scene 31st its halloween
Slave to each new trend up town junkies push again
The lovers and the wannabes they dont know how
The radios and the tv they dont know how
The newspaper story reads they dont know how
Cheap girl magazine they dont know how
Stand aside and cry never wonder why
Ask themselves why the river has dried
Laughter after three shaped up to be free
Number one the most missed chart
Must have broke a thousand hearts
Parallel with the scene tarnished star evergreen
Lived life disguised
The lovers and the wannabes they dont know how
The radios and the tv they dont know how
The newspaper story reads they dont know how
Cheap girl magazine they dont know how
Stand around and cry and never wonder why
Ask themselves why the river has dried
Hoo hoo hoo hoo
Hoo hoo hoo hoo
Hoo hoo hoo hoo
