Still loving Kelly's voice and this awesome tune in 2024

My dad's favourite song god rest his soul xxxxxx

My mom said this always reminds her of her grandad who bought her up since she was born. He worked in the coal mine since he was 14 and worked day and night for his family. God bless you grandad xxx

I had the honour of being able to DJ my grandads 70th birthday party and this was one of the requested songs to be played that night. He lived until he was 83 and died in 2018 but every time I hear this song, it takes me back to that night. Was such a lovely celebration for his birthday and times were just so much more simple back then. Miss you my old mate, until we meet again. Love you always. X

One of the most under rated bands ever. My personal opinion is stereophonics have never been given there true acknowledgement . Fantastic 👍🏼😃

Kelly Jones, what a voice. I bet Rod Stewart enjoys listening to this as much as we do. Cheers Kelly!

My dad and my grandad the first men I ever loved,my heroes,I will love and miss you until we meet again ❤❤x

Tomorrow my family moves out of our home after 22 years. This songs makes me think back to the days when my children were little, my wife and I were in our prime and how now time has moved on and there’s nothing you can do about it. Peace be with you all.

One of the greatest pop songs of alltime. Pure quality passion and soul.

Had a drink or 3 , I am a Ska / Reggae fan , however this guys voice is pure joy 😊, he has such soul - Fantastic!!!

Rod Stewart sang this perfectly and this young man comes along and takes it to a new level.....saw them both on stage singing together....memories

Probably like most of us, I thought only Rod could sing this...live and learn

There goes David Brent. I must remember to thank him.

When I was little my mum had this as her alarm to wake up. I woke up to it and I loved the song. So many memoried! I still love it. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😉😉😉😉😋😋😋😏😏😏😏😻😻😻

Rod is good but bloody hell he's got this nailed....fantastic

I love this song my dad loved this song as well before he passed away he was listening to it it reminds me of my dad love you dad RIP ❤❤❤❤

will always remind me of my dad, when I was younger and we'd sing this on car journey's, playing air piano. love you dad. xxx

Just stunning vocals, he gives me goosebumps. He can smash it but he can also control it. So soulful ♥️

The gravel in his voice! I can listen to him sing forever. What an amazing band! His voice takes me back to the glorious 90s, when music was what music should be.

One of the best covers I've ever heard.

simply beautiful. The respect shown to this song is uplifting and inspirational. Not only by the singer, but by the players of the strings, and the horns. Thanks to every muso involved.

I was a total wreck when I first heard this song, just two days after detox and totally alien to a sober world. But this song helped me a lot, it showed me that I can still be me and also change at the same time.

Much better cover version than Rod Stewart could ever hope for.

Kelly Jones could sing the menu from a Chinese takeaway and it would still sound great.

RIP Grandad love you and miss you

they should use this in a comedy/ documentary about an office

Amazing version, and I’ve been a Rod Stewart/Faces fan since they started. This guys version is truly awesome!👍

One of the best songs ever written Mike Dabo ....

This song reminds me to be thankful for the small things in life.

20 plus years been listening the phonics and still today Kelly's vocals blows my mind.. his voice makes any song.

As an Australian who spent 12 months in South Wales, Porthcawl. This band does this track justice! Jon English for me was the first though…

I grew up in the 70s loving my Dad’s Rod Stewart collection. It is awesome. But this version of this song in my adult years is even better. Love it ❤️

Probably one of the best records ever

Grandad, I never appreciated how hard you worked to make a better life for us, I can't tell you how sorry I am for being like I was growing up, I had so much & never knew what I had xxxxx

What an excellent version of this song by the Stereophonics. I just LOVE It.

Still listening to this in November 2019 and it's still holds it own .....

I wouldn't imagine this to be a theme song for a hit comedy television series.

Just the most beautiful voice, of all the bands I've ever seen, Stereophonics were my absolute favourite, so much feeling/emotion in their music

I was convinced this was the voice of Rod Steward.

Amazing growly gravely voice .. he roars !! 🦁 love it 😀

Now this was a well underrated band.

never been a giant stereophonics fan, but this is just SO good.

One of the most underrated songs ever. Saw them as part of Olympics concerts in London, representing the music of Wales. Brilliant. .. like the manic Street Preachers just something so normal about them as a band .. no pretentions ... They told me you missed school today ... Lockdown .. stay safe .. no need for handbags ... (:-)))

Music with real messages. Yeah, I miss these days too.

Ah, memories of Slough bus station ...

I went to see the Stereophonic's last November in the O2 in Dublin and they performed this song. It was amazing live, it is years since I went to see them, I will not wait that long again. My 13 year old son came with us and thought the concert was EPIC!!! Kelly's voice just gets better with age, like a fine wine!! Hope they come back to Ireland soon.

Awesome track this is without a doubt the best version of this song . Love it .

This is great, incredible rendition. Just when you thought it couldn't get better!!

He's put my stapler inside a jelly again.

best cover ever, just beautiful

Seen these guys in concert in London absolutely fantastic,his voice is amazing 💜🎊

I first heard of this song two years ago in GCSE music and kinda liked it instantly. Literally forgot about it for two years and only remembered it now. Even though it was only in 2018 it really was a blast from the past type of moment. Like as soon as I heard it it felt like the last 24 months were a dream and I was right back in that music class. Fond memories. Music is powerful.

RIP Stuart . You’ll always be The Stereophonics, and no matter what awaits us all on the other side, you’ll always have that legacy behind you, and that’s what it’s all about, how we’ll be remembered when we’re gone 👍🏻

One of the best song covers ever. Love it ❤️

I saw them in Glasgow just before the first lock down. They were absolutely amazing

I was so happy when Stereophonics finally found the right vocal melody for this song, previous versions had not.

The welsh just really are the best singers ain’t they x

Coronovirus 2020, thank goodness for good music to listen to while on the lock down, would of gone 1st class insane if it wasn't for hits like this. Stay safe people x

Kelli Jones was born to sing this song. His voice has that gravelly quality like Rod Stewart’s. Great song!

A valley's boy... It makes me sooo proud! I saw them in a valley's pub... I told my hubby that they'd be huge! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

The song has lot to say.. about being matured in a lot of way's.. Can never forget the underlying meaning. Thank you Stereophonics

Who's listening to this in 2020? I know I do

Excellent cover. I listen to it over and over and over again - so melancholy!

This song is simply gorgeous! The contrast of black and white with the colour is beautiful and fits the tune so well. Kelly Jones- that gravelly voice I could listen all day to. Turn that volume up loud 🎶🎶🎶

Proper tune that the words actually mean something

I come back to watch this video a few times a month. I just love it!

At 45 years old, this song hits very differently...

One of the greatest covers ever.

What a Beautiful Song, This song makes me Sentimental... I love their version of the song...

The whole album is brilliant.

my nan said this is her favourite song, she was diagnosed with lung cancer a few weeks ago and now I sob when I hear this

They truly owned this song.... The very best version by anyone, ever !!!!......

The best of Wales.

He could pass for Rod Stewart easily! Nice job with this song!!! I absolutely love it!!

Most laid back song that still rocks!

Just Heard this Classic in a Taxi LUV it

Welcome to the great taste in music section 👏🏻👌🏻

Absolutely love this band. Seen them 3 times. One of my favourite songs

Kelly Jones is a genius. He writes great songs and has a great voice and the band are brilliant.

Mike DÁbo penned this (he was in Manfred Mann's band) - Rod Stewart covered it on Every Picture Tells a Story - this version stands up!!

One of the best covers. Great band

Amazing song covered by a sadly under rated band, they just don't get the credit they deserve. I gotta say this is my preferred version

This song has been playing over and over in my head for the past 3 days. I can't stop hearing it and don't think i want to stop.

This man's voice 😍plus top lyrics ❤❤it

Perfect song for his amazing voice - if this doesn't give you goose bumps you are already dead

Love this version 😍

An amazing rendition. I saw the Stereophonics live at Temple Newsam in Leeds 2000. Brilliant live band note perfect. Stuart Cable was on fire on drums. Kelly Jones has a unique voice.

What a great cover of a truly great song, rod Stewart does a fabulous version of this as well ♥️♥️it even sounds like the 1960s👏👏🌹

One word - OUTSTANDING!!!!

Rewatching the Office has brought me back here. Wow, 10 years! Thanks Ricky, Steve and the Stereophonics :)

Best version of such a divine song, Stereophonics great band. Kelly Jones, voice bellissimo, beautiful.

This version will never get old. It’s awesome

Gives me chills everytime

This has to be one of my all time favourite songs and seems to relate to my generation a little too well :(

Zero dislikes. Never seen that before. Not that it deserves any. Perhaps there is hope for the world....... Great song/version. Made my day. Thank you.

When I was in high school I chose this song to play in our class -- everyone had to choose a song at some point -- It was an odd choice and I don't know how I found out about Stereophonics at the time (I'm Scandinavian) (I know this song isn't an original of theirs now) -- I remember feeling so embarrassed and uncool when this was playing -- I would find excuses and play down my choice when asked -- saying things like I picked a song at random from somewhere -- I've always been extremely shy -- Looking back I think my embarrassment was mostly all in my head, feeling insecure for "showing the world" something I liked (a part of me exposed, I guess), I think many people in the class liked the song or at least didn't mind -- someone asked me on social media a year later what song I played during that class (before Facebook or Twitter was a thing) -- If only I would have had the courage to appreciate things that I liked in public, or at the least not lie or pretend I didn't, I think that would've been better somehow

Ever seen a blind man cross the road Trying to make the other side Ever seen a young girl growing old Trying to make herself a bride So what becomes of you my love When they have finally stripped you of The handbags and the gladrags That your poor old Granddad had to sweat to buy you Once I was a young man All I thought I had to do was smile While you are still a young girl And you bought everything in style So once you think you're in you're out 'Cause you don't mean a single thing without The handbags and the gladrags That your poor old Granddad had to sweat to buy you Sing a song of six-pence for your sake And drink a bottle full of rye Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake And bake them all in a pie They told me you missed school today So what I suggest you just throw them all away The handbags and the gladrags That your poor old Granddad had to sweat to buy you They told me you missed school today So I suggest you just throw them all away The handbags and the gladrags That your poor old Granddad had to sweat to buy you

Can i just marry this song

Same here and my Dad. Worked their hardest so we could have nice things 😍..My Dad was the same for my girls and all his grandchildren. Sadly passed now ❤

One of my favourite songs! Absolutely love Stereophonics! 💚
