Dakota

This was the Stereophonics 1st ever UK #1. They became the first all-Welsh group to top the UK charts since the Manic Street Preachers hit #1 in the first few weeks of 2000. It also became the Stereophonics first single to chart on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart peaking at #34.

British music columnist James Masterton called this his single of the year in 2005.

The title "Dakota" does not appear anywhere in the lyrics of the song. It is is titled after the state (South Dakota) Kelly Jones was staying in when he wrote the lyrics. The Dakota is also the name of the building in New York where John Lennon lived at the time of his death.
