FIRE©

Live 26 Jun 1999 version

I'm driving in my car, I turn on the radio
I'm pulling you close, oh but you just say no
You say you don't like it, girl I know you're a liar
Everybody
('Cause when we kiss), fire


These lyrics refer to the 26 Jun 1999 performance at Idraettsparken, Copenhagen, Denmark. Bruce was introducing the band during TENTH AVENUE FREEZE-OUT and IT'S ALRIGHT when he came to Gary Tallent's, then Gary started playing FIRE on his bass, and Bruce acknowledged and sang the first verse of the song.

I'm driving in my car....
Mr. Garry Talent on the bass...
