As I read some of the comments,I see I wasn't the only one. Can he do to you the things that I do? And his appeals to and longings for this woman are purely sensually-based. Parks the car, goes to ring the door bell, hesitates, pushes the keys through the mailbox, smiles ruefully and sets off to walk home. How does the clip explain the song? Suomi soi 4: Suuri suomalainen listakirja in Finnish 1st ed. I've listened to it 6 times already in a row! If you turn up the speed on this track, Bruce magically becomes Dolly Parton! The song is about a man who wakes up with night sweats lusting for a woman - he feels like he's on fire when he suddenly awakes. Btw, music videos often do not follow the actual song meaning.

I normally don´t call adult women little girls. But they liked it, and I felt blessed to have a reason to do that song my way. But even though she upgraded, their relationship did not end badly as she still drives crosstown to have her car looked at by Bruce. He thinks of her nonstop, and eventually goes to her house. I'm on fire A B E Oh. Shes not getting what she needs. This is a thunderbolt to be avoided.

I'M ON FIRE Chords

Springsteen imagining what it's like to be a pedophile? Really, no one thought this song was about anything else. I got a bad desire Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire Tell me pretty baby is he good to you? I might be wrong, I haven't seen the video in about a year, but I know these are the basics. Maybe about adulery but who actually needs to interpret a song to the bones. And, Manuel, get help you pervert. Look at this old Dean Martin lyric. I think that 'Lying Eyes' by The Eagles tells a similar story.

John Mayer

Yeah, Bruce is actually gonna write a song about being a pedophile?? Wake up and smell the statutory rape people! An attractive woman leaves her car to be repaired. I also thought it was a kind of pedophile reference. The people posting comments that this song is about a pedophile, are completely insane. The video: Bruce is a mechanic and this beautiful women comes in to his shop. Is he really talking about a little girl? I'm on fire E C m x2 A Sometimes it's like someone took a knife baby E edgy and dull and cut a six-inch valley C m through the middle of my soul E At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet and a freight train running through the middle of my head A C m Only you can cool my desire A B E Oh.

It was usually preceded by a long musical introduction, during which Springsteen spoke about not being able to sleep at night when he was young and his parents were struggling and the house was cold. After some appearances on the , the song went into a long retirement, not emerging again until occasional performances on 2005's solo , when he performed it on with the red lighting back. . Give your head a shake people! His voice is so smooth in this one. Did he go away and leave you all alone? The video was obviously made for damage control so the Zeus of music wouldn't come crashing down. I'm on fire E C m x4.

Springsteen, Bruce

These lyrics are not lyrics that are to be taken literally. What is in the video? This marked the first time for an artist to have as many as three singles inside the Dutch top ten since did so in 1965. Later that night, he drives the car up to her mansion high in the hills above the city. In some cases, red lighting from stage floor focused on Springsteen's face was used to further accentuate the song. It's obvious that her 'daddy' is competition for him competition he thinks he could best, given the chance , so if the girl is a minor, it seems like 'daddy' is the pedophile, while the singer keeps his lust in check. But then the mass media were not obsessed with pedophilia in the way they are now and no one would have written an obvious song about it that's for sure.

It's so not about pedophilia. Sorry for spoiling it, for those who haven't seen it. I'm on fire A B E Oh. Unlike the previous videos from the album, the video was not a performance clip, but rather a dramatic interpretation of the song's themes. He is talking about his lust for the woman that he wants to be with and can't.

Even they have been bad! A better rhyme with 'dull', and a much more visceral image. The song peaked at 6 on the pop singles charts in early 1985. Such a rendition from an August 19, 1985 performance at is included on the box set, but with the spoken part of the introduction edited out. When he drops her car off and realizes the new life she lives he doesn't take it to heart and seems content. Billboard Hot 100 6 U. We hear about him waking up in the middle of the night with desire whereas normally with this kind of story you would just hear about the woman's guilt and her husband's devastation.
