The Pointer Sisters first Top 10 single in Australia ... reached No.7 in 1978. They enjoyed considerable popularity in Oz ... first charting in 1975 with the Country track "Fairytale" and continuing throughout the 80s. The period from 1980-85 was their most successful on the charts.
Originally consisting of four Pointer sisters , Bonnie left in the mid 70s to pursue a solo career & so was not in the group during their most successful period.
Their musical style changed over time from Country to Jazz , R&B to Pop ... they also were chameleon like in appearance ... never looking the same in their video clips.
They shared the lead vocals on their different songs with Anita singing the lead vocals on this track.
Fire was written by Bruce Springsteen however their vocals suited this song & they made this "their" song.

Odd...growing up in the 70s I heard this a lot on the radio, always the Pointer Sisters. I never heard Bruce do it until the 90s...w/e. Both versions are fun.

@TheShane1976 i guess technically all thoe music awards shows that they have now are practically every week so thats kind of like having american bandstand and soul train. Seriosuly why are music awrads shows every friggin week? Lets jsut give everyone an award then.

The Pointer sisters didn't get the credit they desrve. Their music is timeless and should have gotten more recognition than they did. Definitely a group that ALOT of the "modern women" could and should have taken a few notes and lessons from.

Anita sings the lead vocals on this classic Bruce Springsteen track ... the late June is on the far left.
