"A Thousand Trees" is the third single released by Welsh rock band Stereophonics.
The song is taken from their debut album, Word Gets Around (1997), and was released on 11 August 1997.
According to Kelly Jones, the song is about "a football coach who did some very untowards stuff with younger kids" and whose reputation was subsequently "basically burned to the ground".
Reflecting on "A Thousand Trees" in an interview with NME in 2017, Jones said: "It was a very weird incident, when I look back at it now as a 43-year-old man, to put it into a song – if you want the truth.
