The Heat Is On

About The Heat Is On

"The Heat Is On" is a song written by Florrie Palmer and Tony Ashton, and recorded by Swedish singer Agnetha Fältskog in 1983 as part of her first English-language solo-album, Wrap Your Arms Around Me. The song had previously been recorded in 1979 by Noosha Fox, which failed to chart when Fox released it as a single. It had also been rewritten by Manfred Mann's Earth Band as "On the Run" for their 1980 album Chance. Fältskog's version reached No.1 in Sweden and Norway, and peaked at No. 2 in Belgium and the Netherlands. In the UK, "The Heat Is On" peaked at No.35, making it Faltskog's highest charting solo single in Britain until the release of her 2004 comeback single, "If I Thought You'd Ever Change Your Mind", which reached No.11. The B-side of "The Heat Is On" was the song "Man", written by Fältskog herself. Compared to her pre-ABBA-albums where most of the songs were self-penned, this was the only song on the Wrap Your Arms Around Me album that she wrote herself. In some countries, the record companies also released a 12"-single featuring an extended version of "The Heat Is On" instead of the album version. more »

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
Heat is on.

Summer
Summer
Summer dress on
Summer
Summer
Summer dress on

When the world gonna rattle when the heat is on.
Tropical summer - balmy day
Don't say much
Ain't much to say
'Cause the heat is on
Heat is on

The heat is on
The heat is on
The heat is on
Heat is on.
Hot pants
I'm free
Sure feels sweet.
The heat is on
Daddy
Yes
The heat is on.
Tropical summer - balmy day
On the road to Mandalay

Temperature is rising to fever pitch. The heat is on.
