  • "Ask" was released as a single in October 1986. I love this song.
    "ASK" - THE SMITHS
    Shyness is nice and
    Shyness can stop you
    From doing all the things in life
    You'd like to
    Shyness is nice and
    Shyness can stop you
    From doing all the things in life
    You'd like to
    So, if there's something you'd like to try
    If there's something you'd like to try
    Ask me I wont say no, how could I?
    Coyness is nice, and
    Coyness can stop you
    From saying all the things in
    Life you'd like to
    So, if there's something you'd like to try
    If there's something you'd like to try
    Ask me I wont say no, how could I?
    Spending warm Summer days indoors
    Writing frightening verse
    To a buck toothed girl in Luxembourg
    Ask me, ask me, ask me
    Ask me, ask me, ask me
    Because if it's not Love
    Then it's the bomb, the bomb, the bomb,
    the bomb, the bomb, the bomb, the bomb
    That will bring us together
    Nature is a language - can't you read ?
    Nature is a language - can't you read ?
    So, ask me, ask me, ask me,
    Ask me, ask me, ask me
    Because if it's not Love
    Then it's the bomb, the bomb, the bomb,
    the bomb, the bomb, the bomb, the bomb
    That will bring us together
    If it's not Love
    Then it's the bomb
    Then it's the bomb
    That will bring us together
    So, ask me, ask me, ask me,
    Ask me, ask me, ask me
    Oh, la...

    This song is the meaning of my life. Social awkward people can totally relate to this. We are shy, we panic, and we shrink.

    The polarity here is off the scales...music that's as buoyant as a free pint and lyrics that paralyze...thus was the marriage of words and music which Marr and Moz brought to the world.

    An all time favourite live version. I suppose the irony is that this is the least shy Morrissey and Johnny Marr ever got. They were nearly U2 but thankfully they managed to mess it all up in a tylically obstinate way.

    Always thought the guitar in this song was beautiful, masterful.
    As great as Moz is, it's just wrong that cameramen treat guitarists like Marr as they were some sort of background: Marr's guitar is what makes this song, along with Morrissey's craft

    Smiths as a five piece had a fucking great energy live. Sounds a bit thin with just them four, given how intricate and multi-tracked Marr's guitar parts were in the studio.

    • @drevyd8158
      @drevyd8158 Год назад +4

      This song came out around a time where the world was worried of nuclear war (Cold War era) and Morrissey is stating here that approaching someone you fancy even if you are shy could be the “bomb” that brings you together. He’s basically saying the world could end due to the bomb anyways so just approach whoever you like without thinking too much.

    • @yukiaditya7352
      @yukiaditya7352 8 месяцев назад

      Pretty much similar like what happens nowadays in Gaza. If it’s nit love, then it’s the bomb that bring us together.

    • @putjjj
      @putjjj 2 месяца назад

      It basically means that if it isn't love that will bring them together, then it's their shared campaigning against nuclear weapons that will (CND and protests against nuclear weapons were big during this time).

    • @criminally_vulgar
      @criminally_vulgar 3 года назад +1

      Absolutely! I find the studio version is quite over-produced, and agree that this version is absolutely superior. However, my favourite version is the demo version - the drums are a lot wilder, and it isn't as cheesy, yet the vocals are still a bit cleaner.
