Most people didn't know that this was Bruce Springsteen's song (as in the 3rd post in this thread).
Same with Manfred Mann's version of "Blinded by the Light" which was a massive hit in the 70s.

 

After my Blackstar ride I'm feeling a little funky...

 

Or... what I play whenever I do my victory dance on top of Santiago Peak

 

Almost forgot this one.

 

This one was running through my head from the moment this thread started...but I couldn't remember who peformed it.

 

Lot of classic fire songs out there...

 

I will admit - in public - that Big Country was and still is a top three for me. Most people think of them as a one-hit wonder, not the 9 album, amazing band they were.

My friend and I had the good fortune of sitting on the edge of a stage after their show in a bar in Golden CO, sharing a pitcher (Coors Winterfest) and hanging with Tony Butler, Mark Brzezicki and Stuart Adamson in 1994, right after the release of the Buffalo Skinners. Just the five of us. Bruce Watson was busy with some other fans. I asked why they were playing a bar in Golden, and why they didn't charge for the concert. Stuart said they wanted to rehearse in small venues, and their management decided not to charge for this one. Mark asked us in a very earnest voice how they sounded. It was surreal, as I was such a huge fan.

I know I know, "Cool story bro!" And "pics, or it didn't happen."

OK, now back to the fire theme.

 

@siata94 Kudos pulling out a Krokus reference ... Then effortlessly blending it with Pat Benatar ...

Well done...Well done sir!

 

Ok freakout time. This song hit#2 back in 1968. The original shock rocker!

 

I was front row for the Metal Rendezvous tour at some small venue perhaps the Palladium. One of my fav, still have the LP... Unfor never saw Pat Benatar though.

 

Actually cool song but I've never seen that video. You can see all the influences down the line Alice Cooper Conan the Barbarian Druids Spinal Tap and then when he gets down and dances at the end . Thanks that made my night!!!

 

HANK WILLIAMS SR- SETTIN' THE WOODS ON FIRE

 

Can't believe I didn't come up with this one. Such a haunting and influential sound! They were soooo young!

Where were you in October...1981?

 

Boy/October/WAR were a damn fine first three albums! I fell into the nostalgia rabbit hole and watched this that popped up:

Oct '81... I was 11, probably obsessing over when the still un-named next Star Wars movie would come out!
