8. Jones – To The Bone
by MIKE DAVIES on 11 JUNE, 2014
in FOLK | ROOTS | AMERICANA ALBUM REVIEWS
Under both his solo soubriquet and as Miracle Mile, erstwhile teacher singer-songwriter Trevor Jones has a thing for break-up albums. Loss and the collapse of a relationship anchored both of his band’s last two releases and was a constant presence on his two previous solo albums. The same applies here on To The Bone, a collection of songs born of what he calls “a period of instability”, the lyrical content ranging between bewilderment, resigned acceptance, regret, reflection, longing and hope, the songs couched in uncluttered, simple arrangements, inspired by Paul Buchanan’s Mid-Air and pared “back to the bone” (the writing process and the therapeutic nature of silence documented in the part-spoken Cabin Fever) to mirror the rawness of the emotions.
As ever, he’s joined by regular contributor Melvin Duffy on pedal steel and dobro as well as Miracle Mile partner Marcus Cliffe, who shares production and arrangement credits as well as playing everything else save acoustic guitar. For those familiar with Jones’ work, it’ll come as no surprise to hear it’s hushed and melancholic, his gift for folk and country shaded melody and open-heart lyrics undimmed, his soft, dusty tones variously evocative of Martyn Joseph, Ricky Ross. Paddy McAloon and the more wistful side of Costello. For those yet to discover him, these are just some of the pleasures in store.
“Hand on heart, I never saw this coming,” he sings on the opening lines of the album’s bitter-sweet first track, Phil the Hat, a nostalgic reflection on friendship as he adds “let’s raise a glass to our younger selves, remembering how it used to be” and sets the tone for what follows. Both etched out on piano, in the achingly tender Dream Horses memories provide both solace and hurt while the descending scales of Pardon Me addresses the confusion of being blindsided as he replays every detail of “the how and the where and the when”.
Underpinned by pedal steel, bells and a shuffling rhythm, Some Kind of Surrender kicks up the tempo slightly, the seeming rapprochement of “I reach out to you, reaching back to me” offset by “we wave ourselves goodbye”.
The mood oscillates throughout; on the drone-backed Books To Bed he sings “we could discuss every word that we’ve read or we could just make love” while the yearningly brief Man Behind The Moon details those telling signs (“there’s something in the way you worry with your hair”) of a fracturing relationship whereas Fireworks celebrates the hopes and dreams that light up the grey skies as he defiantly sings “I’m done with defeat, let the victories begin”.
Elsewhere, Lucinda Drayton adds vocals to the soulful Angelicana, an Americana-shaded number about a restless spirit featuring slide guitar and, perhaps, a passing hint of Just My Imagination, Glimpsed And Gone is a piano instrumental behind which can be heard the sound of a police siren and the title track features the sort of Celtic choral chorus to have the crowd swaying with their scarves on the terraces of Bruised Romantics Utd.
Having weathered the storm, the album closes on a hopeful note with light peering through the clouds; Jones singing “I will walk beside you and you will know I’m there and I will touch you gently to comfort your despair” to a backdrop of keening pedal steel on the devotional Somewhere North Of Here and, on slow waltz Row, “I knew from the moment I saw you, that you were my forever girl…will you be sailing away or …row row row the boat gently back to me” before the piano notes fade soothingly away to the sound of distant female laughter and the heart lives to beat another day.
Valentine Virus
Jones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You know I got it from you
There's a valentine virus
And I got it from you
I got that saccharine sickness
You know I got it from you
And rather any other can't take you
All of it gumption and counterfeit
Fired like a hope at the moon
Fruit falling, action and consequence
It's burst in and let down below
It's all just to be with you again
It's all just to be with you again
It's the strongest of the airborne pathogens
It's all just to be with you again
I got that valentine virus
You know I got it from you
There's a valentine virus
And I got it from you
All of my projects are replicates
Aggregates, stitched up and glued
Only thing to know for definite
There's no one can replicate you
It's all just to be with you again
It's all just to be with you again
It's the strongest of the airborne pathogens
It's all just to be with you again, again, again, again
In "Valentine Virus," the singer describes the feeling of being infected with love for someone. The title itself suggests that this love is powerful and contagious, just like a virus. The opening lines emphasize that the singer caught this "valentine virus" from someone else, likely the person they are singing about. The second pair of lines further establish the idea of contagion, suggesting that this virus was transmitted from one person to another through some kind of intimate contact.
The second verse introduces the idea of "saccharine sickness," a condition that is sweet on the surface but ultimately unhealthy. The singer acknowledges that they are aware of the dangers of this love, but they cannot resist it. In the following lines, the singer compares their love to a chemical reaction, something that cannot be stopped or undone with any kind of intervention. The final stanza reinforces the idea that the singer's love is unique and irreplaceable, something that cannot be duplicated even with the most advanced science or technology.
Overall, "Valentine Virus" is a poetic and metaphorical exploration of the nature of love and desire, emphasizing the idea that these feelings are powerful and often beyond our control.

I love this song. Finally, someone figured out the lyrics! I could never make out what royce wood junior was saying. what beautiful lyrics.
royce wood junior apparently took inspiration from another song called valentine virus, which was really very different sounding.
