Noosha Fox - The heat is on 1979

Noosha Fox - The heat is on 1979
(former member of the Band 'Fox', well known for their hit 'Only you can'
In 1983 Agnetha Fältskog covered this song

Tropical summer - balmy day
sit around
you haven't much to say
'cause the heat is on
the heat is on.

You know you're in
the hands of fate
Now you're gone
and found me you
appreciate
That the heat is on
the heat is on.

You're on the road
to Mandalay
Never gonna make it
try another day
'cause the heat is on
the heat is on.

The temperature is
rising to fever pitch
The sun is getting closer
and we all get rich
'cause the heat is on
the heat is on.

Hot pants
I'm free
calculated madness
sure feels sweet.
The heat is on darling
the heat is on.

Sum sum sum summer
Sum sum sum summer
summer dress on
When the world
gonna rattle when
the heat is on.

Tropical summer - balmy day
get around
ain't much to say
'cause the heat is on
heat is on

(Instrumental)

Hot pants
I'm free
calculated madness
sure feels sweet.
because the heat is on.
the heat is on

@missmarypickford To be honest I have all of Kate Bush's albums (except 'Directors Cut') and most of Abba's albums but I am less educated with regards to Fox's albums.I do ,however, have fond childhood memories of their singles (particularly 'Only You Can') from 1975.Watching this particular performance from Noosha (AKA Susan) really convinces me that Kate would possibly have been influenced by her look ,mannerisms and vocals.All artists,writers and musicians are influenced by each other .

[missmarypickford]

@TheHumbuckerboy think kate may have been influenced-listening to some of the tracks on the fox albums in 75/76..

Wow..I had no idea Noosha did this song originally, thnx for this.

[TheHumbuckerboy]

This really should have been a hit for Noosha .Agnetha only copied (If that were possible) Noosha's vocal style when she recorded her own version of this song several years after this original .And yeah,Noosha does remind me of Kate Bush here .Agnetha ,Noosha and Kate -those were the days !

She's the one Australian who doesn't make me sick. Now even Australians started to make me sick not only New Zealanders. I wish that Crowded House band would have never existed.

Great track.. Have the 12" version of this..

Ace lady-Noosha!!!

I like artists who not only have the nerve to go out on a limb, but have the talent and the imagination to pull it off. There's a price to be paid, of course. There's no mystery as to why Noosha Fox wasn't more popular. Nobby Geezer likes the familiar and the formulaic and that's where the big numbers are. But Noosha Fox is definitely an original, a perfect case. Of what, I don't know. But I like it.

A beautiful woman with an unusual and great voice !
