I Need Somebody
Ash · Intergalactic Sonic 7s (+ Cosmic Debris) CD2
I think stupid things, when left on my own
I need somebody to be around
Someone to play up to, to fool around
I need somebody, to pick me up
I need somebody
Oh anybody
I need somebody
You know that it's you
I think out aloud, when there's no one around
I can't understand, why I ever feel down
I need somebody to take me home
To the world I once knew was formed on its own
I need somebody to see a smile
Knowing things will be better after a while
I need somebody
Oh anybody
I need somebody
You know that it's you
Oh yeah it's you
I Need Somebody

The song exemplifies Ash's ability to craft anthemic pop records that resonated with audiences of the time, contributing significantly to the band's catalog of hits. Its enduring appeal lies in its catchy composition and the way it encapsulates the optimistic yet urgent spirit of early synth-pop music. As a key part of the *Intergalactic Sonic 7s* collection, the track remains a notable example of the artist's work from that pivotal period.
