Foolish Thing Desire

Foolish Thing Desire is the second solo album by the English musician Daniel Ash. It was released in 1992. It was a success on Billboard's Alternative Albums chart. Ash supported the album with a North American tour.

Critical reception
The Calgary Herald deemed the album "boring as hell." Newsday wrote that "songs such as 'Here She Comes Again' and 'The Hedonist' spotlight Ash's no-holds-barred guitar style." The Philadelphia Inquirer concluded that "'Bluebird', perhaps the only song of interest on this 10-cut disc, finds Ash masquerading as a goth Kenny Loggins."
