1) Ash are an alternative rock band that formed in Downpatrick, Northern Ireland in 1992. The media originally pegged Ash's music as Britpop when the band first found mainstream success.
The current line-up of the group is as follows: Tim Wheeler (vocals and guitar), Mark Hamilton (bass guitar) and Rick McMurray (drums).
Ash's full-length debut "1977" was released in 1996 and followed 1994's mini album "Trailer". Named after the year they were all born (and in honour of the year Star Wars was released), "1977" displayed Wheeler and Hamilton's full-fledged love for all things extra-terrestrial and science fiction-related. In autumn 1997, guitarist Charlotte Hatherley was added to the existing trio. Hatherley was recruited from the band Nightnurse.
The new quartet's sophomore effort - "Nu-Clear Sounds" was released in 1998 to a mixed critical reaction. "Free All Angels" followed in April 2001, gaining a U.S. release in the following summer.
Meltdown, the band's first Stateside release for Record Collection, arrived in spring 2005. A year later, and after nine years with Ash, Charlotte Hatherley announced her departure from the band to concentrate on a solo career. The split was amicable and the members of the band have mentioned that they are open to Charlotte returning.
In 2007 the remaining trio (and original line-up) released the album "Twilight Of The Innocents".
2009: Nearly 12 months of work at their Manhattan command centre has produced an enviable payload of new tunes: the ultimate singles band are about to unveil the ultimate singles collection.
The band announces what amounts to a creative Everest, the βA-Z Seriesβ: 26 singles in one year, a single for each letter of the alphabet, one release every fortnight. The first taster is free download Return Of White Rabbit, and the UK press loves it; a refreshing electro take on the unstoppable Ash formula, it suggests the ambitious new release schedule has revitalized the band.
The unique subscription service run from the bandβs website and own label βAtomic Heart Recordsβ is kicked off with ballad True Love 1980 and is promptly followed by another Ash innovation, the A to Z Tour. The band embark on an alphabetical tour of the UK, a brave β if not foolish β trip around the British Isles from Aldershot to Zennor, bringing the Rock back to some of the nationβs lesser known music venues.

Lost In You
Ash Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wanting to call you but it is late at night
And you're far away
But you are always on my mind
I feel like I'm on fire, nothing I can do
I'm troubled with doubt
Though I know it is not true
When I am dying to speak to you
I'm dying to get through
I'm dying to speak to you
Dying to get through
I'm dying to speak to you
Staring at the wall I sink inside
I think about it all I get caught up in my life
I can't think straight
Because it's tearing up my mind
I feel like I'm on fire, nothing I can do
I'm troubled with doubt
Though I know it is not true
And it's times like these
When I'm dying to speak to you
Dying to get through
Dying to get through
The more that I think, how I need you
The more that I think, the more it seems true
And now it means more
Than I ever meant it to
Ever meant it to
Lying wide awake under strange skies
Wanting to call you but it is late at night
And you're far away
But you are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind

My girlfriend and I would make out to this song in her car in 2002. We're married now and we've been together for 19 years. One of my all-time favorite songs. Thank you, Ash.

1977 a perfect 90s album π
John Paragas
I have three kids when they were at their neonatal and toddler years, I used to sing this song to them as lullaby and they would instantly fall asleep. I'm keeping my record of this and pass it along to them when they grow up hopefully they'll bring back old memories.

anthony mcneil
Always thought this should have been released as a single
James Baglin
I remember listening to this song when 1977 first came out, back in 1996. I was 13yrs old.
Love the sentiment of this song, it harks back to a time before constant social media connection, when you cannot call your girlfriend late at night because there's only a house phone and you'll wake her parents. So you're alone with your thoughts and doubts late at night, magnified because you're a teenager, alone and feeling isolated.
Tim Wheeler, writing great songs when I could barely write a homework essay.
