Arthur Brown - Fire

[shadowelfz]

I remembered hearing the opening scream on Prodigys Fire and wondering where it came from. Thanks to Sam Dunn I know. Its hard to believe Arthur Brown was doing this in the sixties!

[empty751]

have sex and listen this

[nbfnk]

Metal Evolution brought me here

[mx6lover]

Lloyd Banks wishes he was this cool. Actually, Arthur Brown, as more coolness in his pinky nail then Banks will ever have in his whole life !!!!

[theInfamous3]

Hellfire, CunninLynguists. Check it out.

[sepulthrax]

Wow I saw this on Metal Evilution... I remember Ozzy did a cover of this song back when he did his covers album.....not as good as the FUCKING CRAZY WORLD of ARTHUR BROWN

[drake53]

We WERE on fire,then.

[BLACKSABBATH0HM]

I cant believe I never heard of this guy before. Yeah Sam Dunn brought me here and I thank him for that but I still know more about thrash than he does.

[lopli321]

i heard this song on a skate video before I seen it on metal evolution. Always loved this song. I about jizzed my pants when i seen it on tv. i was like ''OMFG ARTHUR BROWN!''

[NightmareSnake]

Metal Evolution HAS to be responsible for "I Put A Spell On You" being in the related videos.

[belpietro8]

mamma mia che brividi ... ho ancora il 45 giri ... un po' consumato dal mangiadischi ...

[hydraIX]

Aboriginal !!!

[hydraIX]

Love this stuff...I enjoy the more obscure musical talent !!

[hydraIX]

The Doors are to blame for this genre !!!

[jeffm9770]

@hydraIX the Doors first album came out the same year as this song. Not sure how much exposure the Doors got in the UK before their first album

[Evilektr0nyk]

Thumbs up if you are here because of DJ RX - HELLFIRE

[hydraIX]

He and Screaming Lord Sutch were the inspiration for Alice and Ozzy !!!

[Perdedor42o]

why is all music from this era so AWESOME?!?!??!!

[mx6lover]

Sooo ahead of it's time, so bold, so right ! SO AWESOME !

[nightmarenet]

[gocubs1815]

[kyal987654321]

I came here for the first 5 seconds.

[McStewbeef]

I like it when he says "I AM THE GOD OF HELLFIRE, AND I BRING YOU"

verr nice!  great success!

[BigD1987]

It's not hard to see where Alice Cooper got his inspiration!

[H4CKCID]

I just came here to see the first guy that wore corpse paint, used now by black metal bands. Nothin more. :)

[xp720]

FIRE.... du du du, to destroy all youve done, du du du du du

[111MrRedneck]

Earl bring me here.

[Louie0046]

Drugs must have been better in the 60's

[EnigmaIsACoolBand]

Great track. The bassist is getting DOWN

[kanamite63]

I just came across this song, it's amazing. Even though it's before my time, I like it.

[RoughOwl]

He looks like the guys from Wachutu Tribe in the Ace Ventura movie :-)

[johnnybourkemusic]

I came to want to find out about this song from Jeremy Clarkson on Top Gear

[yoshivsdragonite]

[premudskiprilaz]

i found this very easy to mastrubate to.

[MichaelDPorter]

@premudskiprilaz You FOUND it easy? That implies you don't find it easy any longer. What happened? Did your dick ignite as a result of too much friction?

[ChatTripeForTripe]

@premudskiprilaz OP'd meme.

[figlopdan840822]

I have the weirdest boner...

[90themann]

HE'S A QUEER WHO SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ReechReynolds]

@90themann

It takes one to know one.

[echoingheads]

@90themann Wrong page... your looking for justin beiber =) Honest mistake though =)

[flowersandchains]

This being Top Of The Pops, is SO toned down to how he did his live shows in the 60s. If only someone had a vid of one of those!

[ShineOnCrazyDiamond1]

O.O

[Vampiric59]

[tessmith11]

Vintage 1968 !! -- DECADES ahead of its time for a pop stage performance ! (dig the REAL brass on the backup) --  A CLASSIC !!!

[duf101101]

OK I was looking for the "Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delia" fire song. Imagine my surprise and amusement. lol. I've GOT to see this again. Laughing my ass off.

[puberis]

Is this what black metal was like in the 60s?

[mijmijrm]

Arthur Brown must be Alice Cooper's dad.

[26667030]

i dont know what the horned instrument(s) are in this song, they come on strong at about 50 seconds and at other times are just passively filling in spaces. i could easily listen to it for 3 hours straight. a little less conversation by elvis has a similar instrument in it that gradually comes on stronger as the song goes on, sounds like a sax. this sound has got its hooks in me and would like to know of any other songs that incorporate this style in them. thank you

[JimJammBassMan]

@26667030 It sounds like a trombone section of some kind.

[gietek]

@26667030 trombones

[mpjgbx]

I have a sneaking suspicion that this song was very popular in Vietnam.

[MichaelDPorter]

@mpjgbx Oh, that is so hilarious! You're fucking hysterical, man! I can just picture that little girl running down the road with half the skin burnt off her and her village in flames behind her. She could have been my kid sister! Hahahahahahahaha!!!

(Tell me. mpigbx, doesn't it get kinda lonely being a freak?)

[alanmcnew91f]

Beavis would love this song!!!!

[AKKodiak1969]

I didn't realize Alice Cooper was that old.

[AmalamCooper]

I saw him as a special guest for Alice Cooper, the guy's freaking nuts! Awesome!

[loungerenownrecords]

I saw The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown at the famous Fillmore in San Francisco

in 1968.The keyboard player,who played a Hammond B-3 organ,was phenom-

enal!! At this time I also attended many shows at Winterland,The Carousel Ball

room,The Avalon Ballroom.etc. Arthur Brown had a headgear that was ignited,

so his head was on fire.Regarding fire songs,I like this one the best!!; better

than "Light My Fire"-Doors and "Fire"-Ohio Players,that I also love!!

[warraxxx]

Holy shit, I can't watch 3 music videos without the band being compared to the Doors. Doesn't even matter what genre of music it is

[jrmetmoi]

@LazyNinja411 the Doors? Really?

[LazyNinja411]

@jrmetmoi That's exactly what I said

[RebuiltSteam]

odd fact .. he didn't inhale.

[Jojoblurp]

I'd be really nervous if I had to wear a hat like that.

DUSTIN DOLLIN IS THE MAN

[coconuthunterlemons]

Im happy to see that Arthur Brown has been viewed so many times

;) Maybe their is some help for peoples choice in music after all :D

[MirageEP]

Back when Black Metal was trippy...

[LordArry]

@MirageEP this is rock

[MirageEP]

@LordArry Obviously, I was merely referencing that he was the first person to wear "Corpse Paint" on stage, which influenced KISS, Alice Cooper etc. who in turn influenced Black Metal musicians.

[LordArry]

@MirageEP this is not connected with black metal,this is rock

[MirageEP]

@LordArry I think you have misunderstood my previous comment, it is not related musically but theatrically due to the fact that Arthur Brown wears black and white face paint (Corpse Paint) which influenced bands like KISS and Alice Cooper, who in turn theatrically influenced Black Metal bands such as Mayhem and Gorgoroth.

[DaTimeHat]

@MirageEP corpse paint =/= black metal

[TheTramsen]

@MirageEP what the fuck does anything in this video have to do with Black Metal?

[manodoedgar]

@TheTramsen Arthur Brown is considered the origine of Black Metal's style.

[funky2249]

@TheTramsen not much .. and your point is?

[TheTramsen]

@funky2249 If you'd take your time to look at who I was replying to you would get my point.

[vashna3799]

[SeanCreaney2011]

I Thank Dustin Dollin For Reminding Me Of This Amazing Song :)

[sparkle453]

I was about 11 when this song came out. I still have the 45 and played it for my daughter. I LOVED THIS SONG (still do) and played it constantly ( when my mother wasn't around). I was a demented little black girl then!

[IVomitOnYourGod]

@sparkle453 You're a cool mom.

[MrJeff1947]

I remember replacing the needle on record player a few times after I bought that 45

[MrUncleglenn]

It was 1969, I took Nancy to Cobo to see Arthur Brown. I was walking her to the restroom and she took my hand. Oh what a feeling! A tingle that has lasted me a life time. It was so simple, but I will remember that feeling for the rest of my life. She was so proper back then.

[EnigmaIsACoolBand]
