Ash - True Love 1980

[PolieCat]

The girlfriend looks like Katie Holmes.

[1fgeofrey]

much prefer this origional and refreshing guitar to a flying-V.

.

[xNumbHeartx]

omg YES!

[irrashi]

In real life these guys are gay too?:)

[facundopierre]

Drew Aguilera the most beautifull boy...i love he...ist perfect boy

[klyamzon]

I love how most closeted gay men are portrayed as angry jocks...

I do love me some angry jocks XD

[uteanatinny]

Ash's sound in this song [which has now become an earworm], is truly haunting. All of qualities of the eriee-ness of the best of 'New Order' mixed with their Irish 'edge'. It's great! :-R

[PolieCat]

The Jock (Ben Farmer) is so handsome! I love this song.

[lolarox7]

Where can I get this song/ video it is soooooooooo amazing!! -3

[gothicjinx13]

Nice song, and the ending was a nice twist.

[g00dapple]

Nice surprise ending!

[AnnaShn]

I want to know whos that blackhaired guy!!!!! :( He's soo cute!!

And, of course, Ash & the song, too. Amazing band. ♥

[LOLWOT246]

@AnnaShn

His name's Drew Aguilera lul

[KrumpingKatie]

The solo instrumental bit really reminds me of 'With or Without You' by U2.

[igerould]

lol..thats Drew Aguilera.

[nouvellemoi]

it'd been years i hadn't listened to your music... but today i missed you guys and then i found this song...perfect words and title. could not stop listening to it. feels like 1996 once again...

[mrlittle77]

1:48 he always reminds me of Nicky Butt

[Evisiling]

Ewwww i was definitely not expecting the kissing scene with the chav and emo! They looked like they wanted to kill each other! i thought there was gonna be a fight! T.T

[petithibou54]

@Evisiling mdrr

[kimibunnyboo96]

WHO is that EMO guy??? he is FUCKING hot!!! ^_^

[fay0318]

Who is that boy with black hair? adorable :)

[meltdown301]

HAHAHA RICK YOU HAVE THE CLASS WITH THIS GLASSES LOL 1:05

[shenyi722]

love it soooooooooooo much!!!!!!!!!!!

[darine3007]

The hottest KISS ever

[AndyPhobia]

OH GOD why did the girl go into the "mens" bathroom. what has this world come to

[yukipyoon]

love this song soooooooo much!!!!!!

[patrushka7]

I love that young black haired guy. He is really sexy in my opinion. But not just sexy I think he is cool really.

[itzhaksfiddle]

I wish I could have seen videos like this when I was in my teens.

I think the jocks rage is because he felt trapped, now maybe he will learn about freedom.

Hang out with people you feel safe with until you are strong enough to stand up to those you don't. Be true to yourself.

[Cainael]

Awh~~~ the goth man are too hot... ♥

someone know him ? an actor ?



[punkblackfire]

yeah there's nothing wrong with being a gay.. but grow up men this is so gross eeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwww..... great song but the kissing scene is so awful... yuck!

[rowdyguitarist]

@punkblackfire how are you going to say grow up? sounds to me like you haven't even matured yet.

[ScrewThemLetsDance]

DAAAUUUUUMMMM. That was hot. lol.

[loganlover22]

Woah, huh, that was a twist at the end. I love how it kind of shows like he is watching the girl, but he was actually watching the boy the whole time! :D AWW!

[omnipitantlyoriginal]

The emo guy in this video looks like a guy I know called Johnny. Johnny would totally do this.

[01alessandro]

Ive been trying to discover

Something that can last forever

Dont be scared of your emotions

I will give you my devotion

True, true love

[almadebailarina1]

Nossa...Que menino do olhar sexy!!

Fiquei triste no final rs É a vida!!

[almadebailarina1]

Nossa ..que menino gatinho..fiquei triste no final rssss.

É a vida!!!! rssssssssss

[killthenoodle]

surprising ending got me :D i'm hook to this song

[heppolo]

New single of Ash "War With Me" is ut on iTunes. TRhe Song is so GREAT.

[heppolo]

New Ash single "War With Me" Is out on iTunes and the song is fabulous. Check the video.

[UrharRar]

Great Band i love Ash forever

[dwaynebenzie33]

Surprising and interesting. Its actually a very thoughtful video since it shows true love, in a real form. I'm a straight guy as well, so that may sound very surprising.

[EpicureMammon]

@dwaynebenzie33 Nah, I'm straight and I think it's an awesome video. I really thought it was heading to a cliche "slobs v. snobs" ending where the outsider gets the girl and it was an awesome way to finish. I still question his affection for rage boy, though :)

[sheeruun]

Amazing ending. I wish that other bands will make some gay videos too..^^

[zonck1337]

I loved the ending. Great song, as well ^^

[sunshine0spike]

it's a surprising end , i like it ^^

[Dillon02003]

Please Please PleasePlease don't comment to shenakus post... It was me accidentally signed in as someone else on my iPod touch. Answer to this one... They CANNOT see that... I can't delete it...

[bobknowsall]

Dude, nobody gives a damn. We don't even know who you are. XD

[Dillon02003]

shenaku knows who I am, and they CAN'T see that, it's a personal thing...

[SHENAKU]

Does liking the ending make me gay, or at least bi? It doesn't matter that much, it's just quite the realization...

[slendersail]

Haha, no - I like the ending too. These things don't work like a transfer of image - they work like a transfer of emotion (i.e. you connect with their "happiness", so you also feel happy). May I ask if you're a guy, or a girl? Straight girls do usually like gay guys (if you know what slash is?). If you're a guy, I want to know more about how you see this sort of thing.

[cynicaltheory09]

Not so surprising twist. But nice try, Ash. Haha!

[Rose15151]

WOW! ... At the begining I was thinking that he's in love in that girl, but when he stands up and go to toilet i was really surprised ... but i really liked it! awesome video and soo true! ^.^

[goodphelo78]

Shouldn't he be putting cold water on that hand?

[rickaypang]

what a big surprise..... the ending of video.

[slendersail]

I applauded, big time!

[shaka360]

awesome ending.  perfect!

[orkoni1]

This vif just send chills doen my back, true love is so beautiful.

[orkoni1]

OMG I should have checked my spelling hahaha. Vid not vif, down not doen.

[orkoni1]

Awesome song, loved the vid. Whoa are those 2 dudes kissing! LOL More!

About time more vids were inclusive, too bad for the chick maybe they can have her hook up with the other emo chick, lol. JK.

Loved it overall.

[EthanSparksTV]

i love the song hate the ending, i barfed!

[orkoni1]

@EthanSparksTV Can I have your barf? Please?!

hahahaAHHAhHahahshHAHAhAahah!

[bobknowsall]

@EthanSparksTV How delightfully accepting of you, hah.

[CloudStrifeAV]

awsome... love how they included the keyboard!

[AndroGuys]

Love this vid with the song, and the band are so great ! And the gay kiss are so hot :P ! The vid remind me a very old music video by old school band ! :) it's a great thing.

[SerasSempai]

I love this moment when those two are kissing :> mraaaaaaaaaaau~~! :D

[ganorekcah]

wow super

[jd6565888]

it is an amazing song but i dont get it when people say they dont understand the video it is so simple :L

[subsahara121]

Ash are awesome. They keep going and just keep bringing out music . . . this is an ace song reminds me a bit of a Free All Angels era track.

[MrSing09]

i rememer 1980 =,it was wank and these lot were proberbly still shittin in there nappies.i do like them though.

[smithl3]

I saw ash in the Temple Bar music Centre last night in Dublin...they were amazing!I havent seen them since Oxegen years ago....and his brother was there with his wife...this song is apparently for them.great show!

[Emberland]

Great twist, didn't see the kiss at the end coming, but otherwise it would have been way too White Rabbit. Song was sub-par though.

[TheTwiHardChannel]

Omg! The guy who makes out with emo guy goes to my church! Ha!

[darine3007]

@TheTwiHardChannel who is he ?i think he is really HOT ;)

[daren363thereal1]

good song. the vid was odd tho

[kyle5619456]

Great song, but i dont understand tha video at all!?

[Vampirexofxthexopera]

i like the song and more the gay kiss!

[Angeleyes2211]

I just threw up in my mouth.

[mik3r0tch]

Well you're not going to throw up out of your ears are you?

[Namidanai]

I love that clip !

[Soyonsfou69]

Thank you very much !!!

[pft199519]

This is Ash on top form...they always had many influences and styles. This is a bit like Candy...TOP TUNE!!! Go on guys

[bumbleshakes]

Omg i seriously thought dat he was gonna beat him up=o

[Soyonsfou69]

Aw... what's the name of the "emo" boy ? please x_x

[lordupham]

Don't let the cheesy video fool you. Just got back from seeing Ash in Kingston and they still kick arse live. Don't just sit in front of your pc bemoaning the demise of a great band. Get out there and see them on the A to Z tour....you will be VERY pleasantly surprised!

[crisprapper]

Ash have always been utterly fantastic live, they blast through tracks with such energy, it's quite quite amazing.

[LauraSpeciale]

trop bien c'te musique ^^!

et trop beau le p'tit brun ^^ !!

vivement que ce soit sur deezer

[LiikeNoOne]

Il est beau le mécheux. Ha ha.

J'aime bien c'te toune. :)

[TheOriginalWASTEMAN]

It's nice to hear Ash going in a different direction.

For those who are moaning that this is gay and lame. Get over it. Music changes.

Also, there's nothing wrong with being gay.

Grow up.

[bobknowsall]

@TheOriginalWASTEMAN Wait a sec, you've got to be kidding me. A genuinely mature YouTube user? This cannot be! :O

[L3odj]

this is gay...

[shaneor1]

It sounds like new order/yazoo vs. Ash...

i used to be obsessed with them. met them twice, back stage on Ricks birthday one time. Tim was ver cool. mark was a tosser lol. This is a great tune tho. Their websites got great stuff going on...

[mrscottnomanifesto]

used to really like Ash back in my indie days.... this sounds like the Pet Shop Boys covering 'Do They Know Its Christmas'... anyone agree? not keen on it but might grow on me once i see past the idea of what i compared it to....

[oywidapoodles]

LOL Yep, just can't get into this song. But then again, I didn't really like Burn Baby Burn when I first heard it either, and I love it now.

[chuckieegg]

being a huge fan of A-ha and also Ash, A-ha are best known for 80s bloopyness, Ash have a three letter name beginning with A also, and now Ash are going for the bloopy 80s sound from my old ZX81. Now if Ash were to support A-ha at the 02, that would be ace!! :-)

[wynnie1]

Three weeks until the Castle, Oldham. Can't wait!

[flumpingjumpers]

It's a grower I think, like most Ash songs. I'll love it soon.

[jmiester25]

at 0:08. isnt that Howie from the Benchwarmers? idk

[jmiester25]

dude. is that dude a dude? dude i did not wanna see that. i thought the dude was gonna hook up with the jock's girlfriend. but damn. i was sorely mistaken. BUT, i'm not one to judge the music just by the video. that song was freakin great!!!

[Xander2k7]

yeah dude! you homophobe! get a boyfriend!

[jmiester25]

hahah that made me laugh.

[jmiester25]

no matter what sound Ash produces, it's freakin awesome

[DunlopTyres21]

It's almost brilliant - just doesn't quite live up to the start :|

[Parkratheniska]

Ha defo would remind ya of richey...

[avd1988]

As a hetrosexual male, I actually really enjoyed this video, looking forward to the next 25!

[markitox91]

yay! 25 MOAR!

[thesportidiot]

I think ash have changed little music taste, but there is something who never change. their name is Ash and their songs is beeng fucking good

[thesportidiot]

I love that song

[saturnringsnet]

the Pretty boy..looks like Richey Edwards!!

[MarqueeMoon95]

I thought that too! Good, we need more Richey lookalikes.

[gorley25]

gay love...a pink boy George CD on a chain...

[conditionals]

Great video. As a fan who thinks they keep getting better and better, I am ready for 12 months of ASH.

[kelloggcerealxoxo]

oh no, i can't believe what i saw at the end.

[kelloggcerealxoxo]

ash is getting more and more boring ... maybe that's why charlotte left them

[Noxon19]

Ash FTW was epic in brighton this year

[Maurauth]

Sounds like a mix of True Faith and Bizarre Love Triangle by New Order...

[countcube]

i effing love this band. my favourite band in the world. loving the new stuff

[xxtiaan]

singer is still dishy after all these years

and cute vid too

[countcube]

tim wheeler should be idolised by every man and done by every woman

[liquidjp]

or the other way round... ;)

[countcube]

yeah, i do agree i would tap that. and not even sell the story to the papers, i'd just do it with no other motive

[xxtiaan]

Im inclined to agree

[xxtiaan]

my thughts exactly speaking as a guy

[Xander2k7]

this is such a good song! :D the video is pretty darn awsome didnt see that happeneing :D

[the1fozman]

Good song and production.. reminds me a bit of Rialto / The Lightning Seeds

[DavETheBabee]

Love it, such a song. BEST IRISH BAND EVER WITHOUT A DOUBT!!!!

flying the flag for us up in the north :D

[ecarghtebazile]

I love this video

[5pl005hProductions]

I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING!

[omgxxxomg]

great song

but unexpected ending :O

[bantha75]

Still one of the best and finest UK bands! I heart Ash a lot

[grohl19587]

They're Irish but you're forgiven :D

[bantha75]

Sugar you are right... even better.. they are the ONLY great Irish band around

[suedethom]

at least something gay and funny :) nice song btw

[beady1982]

sexy!! 3:05.

[deadpool901]

That emo dude looks like a chick I used to have a crush on. Now I'm confused. Thanks Ash !

Oh, great song by the way.

[kinseychris]

[nizarkader]

awesome blossom!

[Slob92]

Nice song, can't wait to see 'em in Dundee

[Reni0630]

whaa. : D verygoodsong, and the video is amazing and prime .. :D

[jaymcfly]

I love ash , thats such a good song and i love the vid .

[MolkoxLewd]

Yeah, you couldn't tackle him. No way. Maybe you could rape him with your brain or something.

btw, please audition for True Blood. The other shows kind of suck.

[grubitsch]

dude ive seen smaller dudes do some amazing shit, dont be a sizeist

[dancoolsan]

I'm so happy! This is the best Ash single in five years! Good video also...

[MorphineDaydream]

Haha, go Drew! ^.^

[wolfwoman36]

nice video!! Go Drew!! ; )

[stevethief]

Great thing, Flashback to the 80s. I like the bass line in the Chorus, sounds like Knight Rider.

[grubitsch]

o god drew that disturbs me on so many levels, course i thought you were gonna rape him so it wasnt that bad i guess

[MolkoxLewd]

Yeah, because HE could rape a football player. Right.

[orkoni1]

O sht, I LOL'd so hard when I read this and Drew's comment back, hahaha!

[o0xAshelyx0o]

god, even my straight friends thought that emo boy was hott! ;) Ash what a very very good video!!!!

[srfjesusppl]

Ahhhh! That's my twin Drewbert! Lol, I love it!

[JustAPrayer]

Hey, I recognize that guy from Deviantart! xD

[TheMillanMan]

and you, gorley25, are a dickhead.

[MolkoxLewd]

Well, song's just pop shit. But 5 stars for the video.

[FiletoSchatzi]

Amen, also, go Drew.

[MolkoxLewd]

Yeah

Drew!

I also think that beepy kind of line is pretty cool. Very 80s.

[gorley25]

what a load of crap, tims gay and marks a complete nerd

[PandaBaybee]

btw Drew, thats an awesome kiss ;P

[DumbGrave]

I love the punchy ending! :D

[Calvers06]

Seen that ending coming!

[hamlet101]

SUCH a great time making this. Thanks to BENT Image Lab and their amazing crew for the experience!

[mik3r0tch]

We need to spread this around! Let's make it big.

[MinhaEstrelaPreta]

I agree Mik.

We should make it go viral!

Drop the link on any music forum you follow (and even those you dont) lol

[Chrisemceebee]

Is that Angelo pashing the jock at the end?

Just joking.

[Revan0356]

Hmm, not too bad. Not my favorite from Ash though....but I can't say I LOVE it, I think Return Of The White Rabbit, was better. Can't wait for the next single though!

[PandaBaybee]

This is totally awesome! I love that I know one of the boys in it. :) Drew is a hottie :))

Lol

[Trunks7j]

Whoa that girls so hot anybody know her name?
