Jesus Says
"Jesus Says" is a song by Ash, released as the first single from their album '' Nu-Clear Sounds'' on 21 September 1998, reaching number 15 in the UK singles chart. It was released as a single CD, a 7" vinyl, and as a cassette. "Jesus Says", despite its considerably low chart placing was Ash's highest ever selling single until " Shining Light" in 2001. The 7" version came with a picture sleeve and the UK promo version came in a custom rice paper picture wallet. "Jesus Says" introduced the world to Ash's second full-length album, and left some fans baffled by its more raw sound. Nevertheless, it was a hit for the band and is considered somewhat of a fan favourite. Tim said of the song: 'This was written at the height of our touring madness'. It's about being hung over and homesick in New York City - 'a million light years from home'. The song may have also originally been called "Ditto". Tim Wheeler has stated the song has no religious meaning, although that did not stop some contr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
