Franglen and Deakin initially released three limited-circulation EPs: The Bath (1998), The Yellow (1999), and The Midnight (2000), all of which were then collected into a widely-released album in 2000, Lemonjelly.ky, which was both a critical and a commercial success.
Their second album (and self-proclaimed first studio album), Lost Horizons, was released in 2002, and was another success.
Their last album, 2005's '64-'95, featured a sticker to warn listeners that "This is our new album. It's not like our old album." The title comes from the fact that each track features a single sample drawn from years between 1964 and 1995, incorporating each sample in a variety of imaginative ways.
Some of their best or well-known songs are:
- The Staunton Lick
- Kneel Before Your God
- Space Walk
- Nice Weather For Ducks
- '75 Aka Stay With You
- '90 aka A Man Like Me
They have also made mix sets for Radio 1's Mary-Anne Hobbs' 'Breezeblock' show, as well as for a variety of other shows (6 Mix, XFM's 'The Hijack', The Blue Room, etc). They have remixed a number of other artists, including Badly Drawn Boy, Pet Shop Boys and Coldcut, as well as collaborated with William Shatner on a track from his latest album.
Fred Deakin is also co-founder and creative director of print and interactive design agency Airside.
In January 2008, the duo announced Lemon Jelly would be breaking up for the foreseeable future. Fred Deakin released the news on their forum. He also stated that whilst there was a possibility the two would work together again, they would be pursuing solo careers for the time being.

In The Bath
Lemon Jelly Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What do you do in the bath?
Oh, what do you do, in the bath?
Oh, what do you do, in the bath?
What do you do, in the bath?
The lyrics of Lemon Jelly's "In The Bath" may seem simple and straightforward at first, but upon closer inspection, they reveal a deeper contemplation of everyday routines and the meaning we attach to them. The repetition of the question "What do you do in the bath?" suggests that the singer is not just asking for a literal answer but rather probing into the thoughts and emotions that arise during this mundane activity.
The bath, as a private and intimate space, is often associated with relaxation and self-care. However, the line "Oh, what do you do, in the bath?" can also be interpreted as a challenge to confront oneself and reflect on one's actions and intentions. The ambiguity of the lyrics leaves room for individual interpretation and personal introspection.
Overall, the song invites the listener to consider their own routines and rituals, and how they might find meaning and self-awareness in the simple acts of everyday life.
