    Thank you Pointer Sisters

  • Wow is right !! an awesome video - the sisters in their prime!

  • Well. One person has no ears. Or eyes.

  • Best version bar none, by a great group ,never to be equalled . where has talent like this gone ,female singers with all their clothes on and still sexy as hell

  • @12qw34er56rt.... Yea they are great ....but is it the words of song or group...both maybe???

  • Musical gold!

  • class pure and simple!

  • If you look up the definition of "sexy" there should be a video of the Pointer Sisters!

  • sad that she fell into and died from her addiction to crack.

  • @daymude63 She did have a drug problem on & off but she ultimately died from cancer...thats how I remember it.

  • There are few songs that when you hear them for the first time you get the disc and play it non stop one hundred times and never tire of it even years later. Fire is one of those

  • wow, they were great. and tall!

  • Awesome - American Banstand.....oooo the good ole days.

  • She kinda look like Angela Bassett

    I love love love this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Did this song ever get any play on any country stations?

  • i always like the orginal versions,i believe if its good enough,there will be other versions to either try to outdo the first or just to even equal it,thats my opinion: )

  • nothing like the old days love them

  • BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • lol...leave it Glee to bring new fans to classic songs.

  • Aaaaaaaaw the 70s sounds ,They get better as you get older .....Use to think this was dish water when a was younger an full o bubbbbbles

  • @endgame8 YEESSS!!! i like Glee's version better... but then im a child i like eve4rything modern... but this is good too!!

  • Damn the the lead singer looks like brandy mother.

  • I think I remember feeling that way -- unfortunately, it was almost as long ago as they performed the song!

  • i never knew they sang this

  • yes ropy you,re right,she do

  • the pointer sisters never got the recognition they deserved!! they were well underated! but not by me! thanx for posting!

  • @dreadedlurgy Im sure they were very big in america but did have a few hits in the uk.lady gaga katy perry and the like should watch this and see how to sing and perform and true talent at work.Cant stand modern ,reality tv based garbage and songs like this only go to show how sad and shallow modern music is.I feel pity the the youngsters today missing out on quality like this.

    "But "Because the Night" is´t cover. Patty Smith has wrote it with Springsteen!!!"

    "I didn't know that, honestly. I thought Springsteen had written it on his own but now that I think"

    :END QUOTE)

    No... BECAUSE THE NIGHT was actually just written by Bruce Springsteen... Patti Smith has a credit on the song because when she recorded it she merely CHANGED A FEW OF THE WORDS... and that was IT... She's even said it herself.

  • this song is written by Bruce Springsteen

  • Beautiful song!

  • Think i'm gonna sing this in class^^

  • 1.53 :) to you D x

  • Sexy, and I love the clothes!!!!!

  • This song always makes me remember the good times.

  • this song is so awesome. it does remind me by the golden days....

  • The Pointer Sister's are Awesome !! They were on FIRE! In ours Days !! Still like thier sound!

  • Now I thought for sure I could sing this song better than the pointer sisters Not t=dis the jam

  • sexy song :)

  • SWEET AND SEXY!!!

  • FIRE!! CHYNAH DOLL

  • Springsteen wrote this for Elvis Presley, his idol growing up. He sent Elvis a demo of it in 1977, but Presley died soon after. The song would have fit well for Elvis, as it's about a passionate lust a couple has for each other.

    Springsteen wrote this while he was waiting out litigation with his former manager. He couldn't record his own songs, but still did plenty of writing.

  • Best Springsteen cover ever? Apart from Trisha Yearwood's Sad Eyes.

  • I dunno - this version is awesome but don't forget "Because the Night" by Patty Smith. TO think had he lived, Elvis Presley would have sung "Fire," as Bruce Springsteen wrote the song with Elvis in mind to sing it.

  • But "Because the Night" is´t cover. Patty Smith has wrote it with Springsteen!!!

  • I didn't know that, honestly. I thought Springsteen had written it on his own but now that I think about it I remember reading somewhere they technically co-wrote it. My bad, thanks for clarifying

  • Actually it doesn´t matter how wrote it. Important is that this song is so awesome.

  • Actually, there is another contender - Cascada's version of Because the Night. It sounds like it should be wrong but it's so right!!!

  • I hate it when crowds clap on every eigth beat. this song does need any help from the audience.

  • I love this song! I cant help but laugh at the way they used to dress back then though, haha!

  • I like this number!
