“All In One Night” by Stereophonics – A Song Review

     The vocals are somehow both detached and impassioned. “All In One Night” tells the story of meeting a person, bringing her baby into the world, and marrying her almost two years later.

     Stereophonics are a band from Wales. Their name emerges in conversations around bands that are highly successful in the UK, without significant success in the US. The song “Maybe Tomorrow” was impactful when used during the closing credits of the 2004 movie “Crash,” but the exposure didn’t have the carryover effect in the US.

     The members of Stereophonics are Kelly Jones (vocals, guitar), Richard Jones (bass), Jamie Morrison (drums), and Adam Zindani (guitar, vocals).

Lyrics of “All In One Night” by Stereophonics
One o'clock in the morning
And I'm leaving from the club
My friends are having a party
Kind of feel I've had enough

At two o'clock in the morning
Sure, I'm at the party house
I meet the roommate getting some water
She got a baby in her stomach

Oh oh oh oh oah oh
[Repeat]

Three o'clock in the morning
We hear a scream above the sounds
Looks like the baby in her belly
Thinks it's time to come on out

Four o'clock in the morning
I'm driving all over the road
I swerve a dog on the High Street
And crash into the post

Oh oh oh oh oah oh
{Repeat]

She can't wait any longer
I got to help her come into the world
The police try to arrest us
But then they see the baby girl

Five o'clock in the morning
I'm drinking coffee on the ward
I take a walk in to see her
Tells me 'bout the dad, took off

Oh oh oh oh oah oh
[Repeat]
All in one night
All in one night

Six o'clock in the morning
And now we're 22 months along
Asks me to be the daddy
And get married when it snows

Oh oh oh oh oah oh
[Repeat]
All in one night
All in one night
All in one night
All in one night
One night
All in one night

Oh oh oh oh oah oh
[Repeat]

  1. Funny almost seeing Stereophonics here. Ive been a huge fan since they first appeared on the scene, which I believe was 20 years ago. Crazy that they haven't made it big in the US with consistently putting out great albums.
    Something to do with marketing or labels because it is no reflection of their talent. The US have missed out.
