'Ask the Lord' by Hipsway
Official Promo Video
I ask the Lord and he said 'no'
I say why, Lord
I hear you're happy but it does not show
Where wild things are, I dare not go
I say why, Lord, I say why, Lord
I say why
Gimme strength, gimme patience
Gimme will to survive
Where the wild things are, I dare not go
At first they make you happy, yeah, this I know
But then they make you feel so low
So low, so low, so low, I know
Yeah, black money pays for suffering
I don't need it
I don't need it
I don't need it
I may be happy but it does not show
Where wild things are, I dare not go
I say why, Lord, yeah, I say why, Lord
I say why
I seen the fire and I touched the flame
And given the chance I'd go right back again
Hot summer rain burn me on the wheel
Baptize me with fire
Yeah, black money pays for suffering
I don't need it
I don't need it
Yeah, black money pays for suffering
I don't need it
I don't need it
I don't need it
I say why, Lord, I say why, Lord
I say why, Lord, I say why
Yeah, black money pays for suffering
I don't need it
I don't need it
Yeah, black money pays for suffering
I don't need it
I don't need it
Yeah, black money pays for suffering
I don't need it
I don't need it
Black money pays for suffering
I don't need it
I don't need it
I don't need it
One of the best bands and albums of the 80s. Not many know them , but those of us who do , well we get it....
I used to listen to them in France in the 80s. Just cannot remember how come I went to discover them
Yes that was a big indie hit in France. Reminds me of my uni years@@stephanedajtlich
I still love them at 55 years old
Had it for 40 years
My favourite album ever. Every track is a winner, and Skin's voice is smooth, sexy and soulful. This album has been with me since it came out originally, amd i still listen to it regularly on Spotify. I've had this album in my life since I was 13 and I'm now 50! It's been with me through every up and down, and it means so much to me. On the off chance you're reading this, boys, thank you so much for everything. ❤
This music is utter bland dross. You must have a truly shit taste in music, love.
It's criminal they never got the recognition for this classic album. I'm 66 and still love it
i like sex
Graeme Skinner had a voice to die for, the band as a unit were tight as fuck the eponymous album was utter class and yet despite all of this they were criminally underrated…I say why lord?
Amen Brother 🙂
A band well before their time. Reminds me of my clubbing days in Glasgow.
85. Everywhere in Glasgow was playing this wall to wall you could not hide from Hipsway
Wonderful!!! I bought the 12 inch version when it first came out, it is still one of the prides of my collection.
Loved them,thought they were massively underrated bands ever
Love these guys. Have 3 copies of the album. Why they did not blow up huge still gets me.
i am physically disabled by a car accident 18 years ago since then music is my support thanks :-))
I wish you the best!❤
Merry Xmas everyone
my dear friend Billy Mcconnell from blantyre introduced me to this incredible act! wherever you are billy, love ya!
Existia uma danceteria aqui na cidade do Rio de Janeiro no fim dos anos 80 chamada PLAY HOUSE , onde está música virou HINO 👍
The best músic!
Instantly taken back 35 years. God I loved this band when I was a kid.
Think I’ll be downloading this on iTunes in a moment😬
This song is super cool, I have been dipping back into this for years.
One of the best albums of all time, loved Hipsway back in the day and have recently had this album playing on repeat, still sounds amazing today
Love these guys ,had their album back in the day x
I hadda sucha crush on Graham!!
Always our family favourite holiday song 😍
Best album ever😂
class ! Scottish bands have talent , individuality , enthusiasm and heart ! och aye
My older sister's BF gave me this album and Lloyd Cole and the Commotions album when I was like 14 or 15. It started me on a musical journey and changed my life.
Never knew the bass player went on to form Texas until this weekend. Saw Hipsway at ‘The International 2’ A club in Manchester, promoting their debut album. Fantastic in every way. That Strat tone is to die for 🎸
He was also in Altered Images
I actually walked to the record shop in the rain to buy this. Fantastic band. Great sound.
The Palais in Bathgate dancing to this with Jane Brown fae Crazyhill. Don't know why I let her get away. An absolute wee honey of a girl.
Have you been drinking...
Great debut album, Ask The Lord class song, hard-edged white soul.
Play house vila valqueire !!!!! quem viveu jamais esquecerá !!!
Brilliant song the honeythief there classic 👌
I Say wow lord, what a Song!!!
Absolute class, what more can you want
This tune should have been bigger!
I still kept the vinyl, one of the reasons I still couldn't throw out my old record player.
I've still got my vinyl at least.
Still got thé 12 inch but gutted I never found a Hipsway album.,.
Brill ❤️
Used to love escaping the up-itself London scene for a weekend in soulful, buzzy, gritty Glasgow BITD. Gallus locals, a great music scene and tons of talented musicians. For me, Hipsway was the sound of the city. I still get a rush whenever I hear Ask The Lord and Long White Car.
Lyrics:
I ask the Lord and he said 'no'
I say why, Lord
I hear you're happy but it does not show
Where wild things are, I dare not go
I say why, Lord, I say why, Lord

Gimme strength, gimme patience
Gimme will to survive
Where the wild things are, I dare not go
At first they make you happy, yeah, this I know
But then they make you feel so low
So low, so low, so low, I know
Yeah, black money pays for suffering
I don't need it
I don't need it
I don't need it
I may be happy but it does not show
Where wild things are, I dare not go
I say why, Lord, yeah, I say why, Lord
I say why
I seen the fire and I touched the flame
And given the chance I'd go right back again
Hot summer rain burn me on the wheel
Baptize me with fire

That's Next Black Business One Suit I had one at the same time that Grahame is wearing
I liked Black, he was good. Dead now though.
Folk don't know what good music is these days after they've been brainwashed with Xfactor for so long. The only way they find out about great songs like this is if its featured on a tv show or a tv advert. Then they say who's here because of .........? Does my head in.
Still got cassette
Ask the Lord.. He said no.. I said Wino ! 🍷 @GramSkin
heehee..
Good job.
Thanks Diogo.
Really liked this band, thought they would have been bigger cool tho
