1. Paul Jones (born February 24, 1942 in Portsmouth, England as Paul P Pond) is an English singer, actor, harmonica player, and radio and television presenter.
As "P.P. Pond", Paul Jones performed duets with Elmo Lewis (aka future founder member of the Rolling Stones, Brian Jones) at the Ealing Club, home of Alexis Korner's Blues Incorporated, whose singers included Long John Baldry and Mick Jagger. He was asked by Keith Richards and Brian Jones to be the lead singer of a group they were forming, but he turned them down. Jones then went on to be the vocalist and harmonica player of the successful 1960s group Manfred Mann.He had several Top Ten hits with Manfred Mann before going solo in July 1966. He remained with His Master's Voice.
He was less successful without the band than they were with his replacement, but did have a few hits, notably with "High Time" (1966) and "I've Been a Bad, Bad Boy" and "Thinkin' Ain't for Me" (both 1967) before attempting to branch into acting. While his solo recording career was barely successful in the UK, it never got off the ground in the US. He did have enough hits in Sweden however to have a greatest hits album released there on EMI.

Free Me
Paul Jones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My hands are restless, worn out
My days and nights are torment, a world of misery
The bonds of retribution
Now laid so carefully
I cannot shed my pain so easily
Now, my spirit's broken
My body's all aching, my hands are tied
I need my freedom
Not your sympathy
You, you need and love me
Just set me free
Come on, come on, set me free
Set me free
Is there a way out for me?
I kneel before you helpless
Is there somebody out there to take a chance on me?
I don't pretend to virtue
I don't ask anything
But if you want to help me, my freedom's everything
Now look, my spirt's broken
No will to live
My body's all aching, my hands are tied
I need, I need my freedom
Not your sympathy
Look, you need and love me
Just set me free
Come on, come on please, set me free
Set me free
I see it all before me
My darkest days of sorrow
Salvation's hand denied me, no hope of liberty
I only ask one question
Please tell me if you can
What good is retribution without a helping hand?
In Paul Jones's song "Free Me," he sings about the struggles of feeling trapped and the desire for freedom. He begins the song by painting a picture of desperation, with "restless" hands and "torment" in his days and nights. He talks about the "bonds of retribution" which have been carefully laid but prove difficult to shake off. The chorus emphasizes his need for freedom, rather than sympathy, and urges his loved ones to set him free.
In the second verse, Jones continues to express his feelings of hopelessness and helplessness. He kneels before someone, pleading for a chance to escape his situation. He acknowledges that he is not perfect, but begs for their help nonetheless. He questions the purpose of "retribution" without any support to aid in his escape from his current predicament.

Fletcher jumping over the low hedge in a slightly camp way due to his jeans is sooooo funny.

That cracks me up every time I see it. I have never seen an animal or person jump a hedge that way. Perfect for Flechter's character! Flecther, Hugh's best role ever!
