The Smiths - Ask - live promo

The Smiths - Ask - live promo, as recorded from Night Network, recorded at SP on TDK Super Avilyn E-180 VHS, mono audio. Lyrics as follows
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 won't 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 won't 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
Mm-da-da-da-da-da-dum
Mm-da-da-da-da-da-dum
Mm-da-da-da-da-da-dum
Da-da-da-da-da-dum
Da-da-da-da-da-dum
Da-da-da-da-da-dum
Da-da-da-da-da-dum
Da-da-da-da-da-dum
Songwriters: Steven Patrick Morrissey

The Smiths I remember them in the 1980s and they were like a strange 1960s British band with some very profound lyrics and nice melodies. One regret is never seeing them live back then.

Great that you can now watch these videos via Scottish Teevee! The Smiths were one of my favourite bands at the time. I still listen to them to this day 🎶!

I get so happy when you upload more Smiths ❤

"Bucked-tooth girl in Luxembourg" - One of the most original lines in R-n-R. Love the Smiths! Cheers STV!!

[daviesmod]

Absolutely never seen this before thank you

[drearyaugust]

Great and interesting video, thanks! I'm not sure if i've ever seen live footage from this late in the 80s before

One of the best live videos of the Smiths (best band in the world). Is me or does Morrissey seem to overly annunciate the lyrics on this one so that EVERYONE can understand the strong message???

[richalderson]

I much prefer the Rank live version to the studio version, the guitars jangle gloriously!
