10 Best Stereophonics Songs
1. Dakota - Language. Sex. Violence. Other?
Perhaps the song that the Stereophonics are best known for, Dakota is yet another divergence from the band's familiar sound, featuring more synth melodies and electronic elements than the other songs that came before it. With this unique amalgamation of instruments, Dakota paints a picture of nostalgia and remembrance of loved ones past, making the end result the most emotive song the band have ever produced.
The first track from the band to reach number 1 on the UK single to chart, Dakota is the crowning achievement of the band from Cwmaman, and represents the best of everything the Stereophonics are known for, excellent musicianship, creative lyrics and the raw energy and emotion that drives it all. The brilliance and success of this song cements the Stereophonics as one of the best acts to originate from Wales.
