Over the years Jones has stated in interviews that he originally was influenced by the 50's rock sound of acts like Jerry Lee Lewis and Little Richard, he was a fan of American R&B music and a huge fan of Elvis Presley. By his own admission, it was not until after he became famous some years later that he developed an appreciation for pop balladeers such as Sinatra and Tony Bennett.
