1) The male Kelly Jones (born 3 June 1974) is a Welsh musician, lyricist, and lead singer of the band Stereophonics.
He lived in the former pit village of Cwmaman, near Aberdare, where he became friends with neighbours, Stuart Cable (former drummer of the Stereophonics),and Richard Jones (bass guitarist and no relation). Eventually the trio formed a covers band together which went by the name Tragic Love Company.
A perceptive lyricist, Kelly considered being a scriptwriter before being a musician. At this time, the BBC showed an interest in some of his early work but as the band progressed from a covers band to writing their original material, Kelly decided to use his narrative side more towards writing lyrics.
In 1997 the band (now renamed to Stereophonics) released their debut album Word Gets Around which documents much of his early life including his account of his teen years on a market stall wryly documented in More Life In A Tramps Vest.
After their second album (Performance & Cocktails) and prior to release of 2001's Just Enough Education to Perform, Kelly Jones toured the UK on his own in late 2000 previewing the new material and playing classic tracks. This tour was extremely well received though never repeated until 2007.
As of March 2007, Kelly has released his first solo album, Only The Names Have Been Changed, and is about to embark on a short solo tour of the UK once again. However this does not signal the end of the Stereophonics who are expected to release their 6th album later in the year.
2) The female Kelly Jones came on the music scene recently with her debut album "SheBANG!" and is currently based in Nashville, TN. In 2016, she collaborated with Teddy Thompson to release the album Little Windows, which was followed up by the duo with an accompanying tour.
SUMMER
Kelly Jones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Diving down and climbing high
Shooting stars fly through my sky
Ripe, black cherries taste like wine
And then I feel like lying down so still
Making shapes from clouds in the sky with you
Decreasing circles from stones I threw
And greasy skin shines in the sun
Today's the day and you're the one
And then I feel like lying down so still
Making shapes from clouds in the sky with you
And when the sun has gone away
And I feel I wanna stay
I taste a raindrop in my mouth
I pick you up and the sky comes down
And still I feel like lying down so still
Making shapes from clouds in the sky with you
In Kelly Jones's song Summer, he describes his idyllic experience during the summer season. He begins by admiring birds soaring in the sky and shooting stars illuminating the night, while relishing the taste of ripe black cherries that remind him of wine. Jones mentions his desire to relax and create shapes with clouds in the sky with his partner.
He continues to describe his sensory experiences of nature, from the dewdrops falling from leaves to the ripples formed by stones he throws in water bodies. Jones also notes the glistening of his skin in the sun and expresses that he is excited to be spending this beautiful day with his partner.
As the day progresses towards dusk, Jones savors a raindrop in his mouth before being lifted up by his partner, making him feel as though the sky is coming down. The song concludes with the desire to continue lying down with his partner, appreciating the beautiful summer sky together.
Overall, the song portrays the beauty of nature and the importance of sharing such experiences with someone special. The simple pleasures of lying down with a loved one, admiring the clouds, and tasting the raindrops all bring joy to the singer's summer day.

@E6L9U8 "under-rated" seems to be the most commonly used word with regards to Kelly or the Phonics. Says something when you think They've had number one singles, and 6 consecutive number one albums, selling millions of records and playing stadiums. Don't ya think?
