"Fire Lake" is a song written and recorded by American musical artist Bob Seger. Seger planned to record "Fire Lake" for his 1975 album ''Beautiful Loser'', but the track was not finished. The song had been partly written years before, in 1971, and was finally finished in 1979 and released in 1980 on Seger's album ''Against the Wind''. It reached number 6 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100. A much appreciated live rendition of the song also have been made.〔https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRS2WzlRgQ4〕〔https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3sNriOp2nE〕 ==Background and writing== Seger and colleagues decided to make "Fire Lake" the first single from ''Against the Wind'' because it was "totally and unequivocally unlike anything I'd ever done before." *"The lyric is very ... different ... and very kind of unique. It's about taking risks. About risking love, chucking it all and just heading off with a bunch of wild people, whatever. *"It is one of my favorite lyrics down through the years, and the track is very unusual. It's sort of an R&B meets country kind of thing. *"I really wanted it to be the first single but I never thought Capitol would agree to it, and I believe it was Punch (Andrews, Seger's manager and often co-producer) who talked them into it. What I liked about it was that it broke new ground for us. It really showed that we were unafraid to push the envelope of what we were doing before, which was basically pretty hot rock and roll, you know, with a few ballads thrown in." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fire Lake」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
