You’re Fired!
September 16th, 2009
Shazam HQ was put through the important, but ever so slightly annoying, rigmarole of a company fire drill this morning. Whilst waiting to return to the office we began listing songs that could fit the situation and suddenly realised how many great songs have been written by pyrophiliacs – that’s lovers of fire for the uninitiated.
Other notable tracks could have been:
Kasabian – ‘Fire’, Sean Kingston – ‘Fire Burning’, The Prodigy – ‘Fire’, Jimi Hendrix – ‘Fire’, Deep Purple – ‘Burn’, Billy Joel – ‘We Didn’t Start The Fire’, Ash – ‘Burn Baby Burn’, Johnny Cash – ‘Ring Of Fire’, The Cult – ‘Firewoman’, Talking Heads – ‘Burning Down The House’, Ferry Corsten – ‘Fire’, The Pointer Sisters – ‘Fire’…. We could carry on.
