"Uncle Pat" is a song by Ash, released as the third single from their album Trailer, released on October 17, 1994. It was released as a single CD and a 7" vinyl. When asked about the song, Tim Wheeler stated that Uncle Pat is actually his friend Peter Lawson's uncle, an artist, from Portaferry, County Down, and for some reason Ash used to constantly talk about him. One day Ash were jamming the riff to the song and nicknamed the tune 'Uncle Pat' due to it having a rural and Irish quality.

  • "Uncle Pat" is a song by Ash, released as the third single from their album Trailer, released on October 17, 1994. It was released as a single CD and a 7" vinyl. When asked about the song, Tim Wheeler stated that Uncle Pat is actually his friend Peter Lawson's uncle, an artist, from Portaferry, County Down, and for some reason Ash used to constantly talk about him. One day Ash were jamming the riff to the song and nicknamed the tune 'Uncle Pat' due to it having a rural and Irish quality. Later on, Tim scribbled the lyrics down to 'a guy I've never met... here's to Uncle Pat' The song also features on the greatest hits collection "Intergalactic Sonic 7’’s". The song was also used in a television advertisement for Heineken and was key in raising Ash's profile in the UK and Ireland. The B-side "Different Today" first appeared on the "Shed" demo tape, and also features on the US release of "Trailer". However, whilst in demo tape form, it had considerably different lyrics. The other track, "Hulk Hogan Bubblebath" also appears on the US version of "Trailer", and consists mainly of instrumental, and occasional ramblings by Rick McMurray. Early on in Ash's career, it was a prominent feature of their setlists. The music video stars Ash playing the song in concert, cut with handycam footage of the local surroundings.
  • “Uncle Pat” è il terzo singolo estratto dall’album “ Trailer” degli Ash, il 17 ottobre 1994. È stato pubblicato sia su cd sia su vinile. Riguardo alla canzone, Tim Wheeler ha dichiarato che lo zio Pat (Uncle Pat) è lo zio del suo amico Peter Lawson, il quale è un artista che vive a Portaferry, Country Down, e per qualche ragione gli Ash costantemente parlano di lui. Un giorno stavano suonando il ritornello della canzone e decisero di chiamarla “Uncle Pat” poiché aveva tratti rurali tipici irlandesi. Più tardi, Tim modificò il testo in ‘ a guy i’ve never met…here’s to Uncle Pat’ La canzone fa anche parte del greatest hits “Intergalactic Sonic 7"s”. La canzone fu inoltre usata nella campagna pubblicitaria dell’ Heineken, che aiutò gli Ash a raggiungere il successo in Irlanda e nel Regno Unito. La B-Side “Different Today” apparve per la prima volta sul demo “Shed”, e nella versione americana di Trailer. Ad ogni modo ha un testo molto differente. L’altra traccia, "Hulk Hogan Bubblebath" apparve anch’essa nella versione americana di “trailer, ed composta principalmente da una parte strumentale, con qualche intervento di Rick McMurray. Il video musicale inizia con gli Ash che suonano a un concerto, registrato con un taglio quasi amatoriale, e prosegue mostrando immagini che ritraggono e i membri del gruppo immersi in scene di campagna.
