about

This was the second release from the CD, with a video on YouTube.

"Wildfire" is light-hearted, Zep-like ditty about letting yourself go with the moment. I kept the lyrics light and fun and let the music do most of the talking in this one.

I played real bongos on this track but then added some industrial percussion to make it sound a bit more modern and edgy. I used a lot of different vocal effects to sound as if I am singing through campfire.

The over-the -top lead guitars in the middle of the song were added to simulate the dancing or flickering of flames. FUN! It's probably my favorite guitar playing on the whole CD!

Hey, sometimes you have to let your wild fire burn ;)

lyrics

WILD FIRE

Mmmm

Well If you wanna be my lover
All you got to do is say the word
And I'm all yours
Yeah

'Cause If you wanna be my woman
All you've got to do is take the bull
Mmm Hmm
Right by the horns

And feed a fever
Don't starve a cold
Stoke my fire
Let your wild wind blow
Oooh

Well if you wanna be my lady
Come stimulate my senses everyday
Oh
And I won't stray
Hey

Come feed my fever
Don't starve a cold
Stoke my fire
Let your wild wind blow
And let it burn
Like wild fire
Out of control
Like wild fire

My wild...
My wild..
Fire!

Feed my fever
Don't starve a cold
Stoke my fire
Let your wild wind blow
And let it burn
Your wild fire
Let it burn
My wild fire
