Fire (Ohio Players song)
"Fire" is a hit song by R&B/funk band Ohio Players. The song was the opening track from the album of the same name and hit #1 on both the Billboard Hot 100 (where it was succeeded by Linda Ronstadt's "You're No Good") and the Hot Soul Singles chart in early 1975. It spent five weeks atop the soul chart. "Fire" was the Ohio Players' only entry on the new disco/dance chart, where it peaked at #10. The tune is considered to be the band's signature song along with "Love Rollercoaster."
The song was recorded at Mercury Records' Chicago-based studio. While performing it in California, the band let Stevie Wonder hear the basic track for the song and he predicted that it would become a big hit. The song is noted for its sound of a siren recorded from a fire truck, heard at the beginning, as well as in the instrumental break in the middle. The edit version avoided much of the repetition of the music.
A cover of the song was released by Canadian New Wave band Platinum Blonde on their third album Contact in 1987. Another cover, also from 1987, is featured on the album Rhythm Killers by Sly and Robbie, produced by Bill Laswell. For their 2014 album For the Love of Money, industrial hip hop outfit Tackhead covered the song.

Compatibility with other zodiac signs
Among all the 12 animal signs, the Monkey has the most tacit understanding with the Dragon people. The cunning Rat can be good partner with the Dragon to make something big. The Dragon people can live happily with the Snake, for the Snake can prevent the Dragon from behaving outrageously. People under the signs of the Tiger, Rooster, Horse, Goat, Rabbit and Pig like to be friends with the Dragon, as they admire the Dragon's beautiful bearing and strength. Also, two Dragons can get along well with each other. However, the relationship between the Dragon and the Ox people are usually tense, because both of them are very majestic. The people that the Dragon feels headaches with the most is the Dog. They feel uncomfortable due to the Dog people's close guard.

Fire Of The Dragon
by: BlackfootA young man lies with a needle in his arm,
China white in his hand
Say a little prayer for his unlucky soul
It's so sad, so sad
Fire Of The Dragon
Fire Of The Dragon
The scene was set and the time was right
A pretty girl walked the streets
Lookin' for a hand out
Turn a trick or two and she'll get
Just what she needs
'Cause it's the outlaw in the city
Voodoo in our town
Steals the life from those you pity
And leaves them under the ground
- Chorus:
Fire Of The Dragon
He left his mark all over your hands
Dirty Dragon and took 'em to their
Promised land
Cat Brown has a hit the streets
Middle East struck again
When you're shakin' and your body's so weak
It seems you just can't win
So at night when you're naked with your bride
Think about what I've said
Think about the young man and his lady love
It's so sad, so bad
'Cause it's the outlaw in your city
Voodoo in the town
Stole the life from those you pitied
And left them under the ground
