Shirley Bassey singing Fire Down Below on the Muppet show 1980 and the best Muppetclip ever: Isn't It A Lovely Day. Lyrics: Don't believe my eyes, they're the coldest eyes But I'm not so cold, let me put you wise Keeping the temperature so low, this is a work of art For there's a fire down below, down below in my heart And my crazy lips, they're such lazy lips But there'll come to life should we come to grips If you have anything in mind, warn you before you start There is a fire down below, down below in my heart Now that you're getting my number, know what I'm talking about Pile on the coal and the lumber, don't let the fire go out I'll admit my face is the quiet type This can all be changed when the time is right Call out the volunteer brigade, call out the fire cart For there's a fire down below, down below, down below Down below in my heart Now that you're getting my number, know what I'm talking about Pile on the coal and the lumber, don't let the fire go out I'll admit my face is the quiet type This can all be changed when the time is right Call out the volunteer brigade, call out the fire cart For there's a fire down below, down below, down below Down below in my heart (repeat to fade) Information kindly researched and provided by Theo Morgan Fire Down Below Written by Lester Lee and Ned Washington Released on a single and on the album The Bewitching Miss Bassey. This song can be found on the Classic Tracks/Magic Of compilation, or on the Readers' Digest CD set This Is My Life. From the feature film "Fire Down Below" (1957). It starred Hollywood acting legends Robert Mitchum as Felix and Jack Lemmon as Tony, two men who own a boat in the Caribbean and sail around having fun whilst being involved in various illegal dealings. They encounter a good-looking woman, Irena, played by another legend of the silver screen, Rita Hayworth, whom both the pair subsequently fall for. This leads to an inevitable break-up of their friendship and a series of terrifying events. In a bizarre coincidence, the film also starred Anthony Newley, who together with Leslie Bricusse wrote one of Shirley Bassey's biggest hits, What Kind Of Fool Am I? (from the stage show "Stop The World, I Want To Get Off"). In the film's title sequence, the song "Fire Down Below" was sung by American singer Jeri Southern. Probably thanks to her version being used in the film, Jeri's was a bigger hit in Britain than Shirley's version, reaching #22 for two weeks. In fact, it wasn't until another 9 weeks later in August 1957 that Shirley's recording of the song made any impression, and unfortunately all it could do on the charts was enter at #30 and then drop out the following week. The flipside of the single, You You Romeo, did however manage to peak a place higher two weeks afterwards. The sheet music to the song sold well, reaching #16 on the sheet music charts. That chart listed the songs with the artists who currently had versions released on record. Thus it is unsure whose version turned the sheet music into a bestseller.
