Staves, The - I'm On Fire Lyrics
Hey little girl, is your daddy home?
Did he go and leave you all alone?
I got a bad desire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
And did he do the things that I do alright?
I can take you higher
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby
Edgy and dull and cut a six-inch valley
Through the middle of my skull
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running
Only you can cool my desire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire

Staves, The I'm On Fire Comments
i want to be your manager... firstly, change your names to "the sex staves", then after a few months change it to "the sex" and start wearing less clothes, and dancing, and lose the guitar, and replace it with a giant foam finger
Wonderful vocals and playing.
Oh shit! Who are the staves.....harmonies like "oh brother where art thou" (I went down to the river).
"Hi, we're The Staves, and these are my incredibly gorgeous hips. Oh, and 'I'm on Fire' by Bruce Springsteen."
(All puerile smartassery aside, a very lovely rendition.)
This sounds like a warm hug from my nan.
Mais quelle merveille.......
This is known as "blood" harmony, can only be done by families and it's perfect.
Wow great job please check out my version .. please let me know your recording technique this is my first video and could use help thanks
Hi Keith,
Thanks for watching!
These days I record with multiple mics through a Zoom H6 recorder and then mix the tracks in Logic before syncing them to the video in Adobe Première Pro. Good luck!
Thanks for your input .. only recorded my version with iPhone guess I have a lot to learn
@Keith Huebner when I started, I just used camera audio too. I now use SE Electronics X1 mics. They're pretty cheap 'but great for all kinds of things: vocals, acoustic guitars, etc.
The Influences and how did you record the video? That wide angle shot is awesome
Aaaaand an instant new fan. Soo good.
Love this rendition. Singing together for so long makes your sound so pure. Lovely.
love you girls...
Nailed it! I like that more than I like cheese.
I'm here after hearing it on the last episode of Lethal weapon - Season 1 (Song on Miranda's grave) 💕💕 so soulful!
Incredible
Very Beautiful version Ladies! Way to make it in your own style. Bravo!!!!
WOW
ANGELS
Stunning
Beautiful is really such a lame word to describe your voices. Thank you for sharing.
3 beautiful women showing their true inner beauty as well.
Much love ladies. x
Holy Cow, AWESOME.
Wonderful job, ladies. The three of you have just made my day. Thank you for that soothing harmony.
3 angels 👼 😘😘😘😘🌺🌺🌺🌺
What model of Martin is that you’re playing, sounds
fantastic.....singing is cool too.
So good you'd almost forget the creepy lyrics
That is just beautiful!
Wow! Just beautiful
I take it they're sisters ? They sure look alike, specially the two on the left. And share a lot of talent !
Beautiful
JJJJJ GGGGG
Absolutely beautiful. ❤️
It's very prettily sung, but in 2019 we need the best young musicians to move on from song models now 35 years old. Imagine if Springsteen in '84 was spending studio recording time on songs of the 1940s?
I'd recommend you check out Springsteen's album with Pete Seeger covers. ;)
This is a live video for theinfluences.com, not a studio recording. Make sure to listen to The Staves' records, they're very inventive and brilliant.
@The Influences It's a matter of degree not kind. Today Youtube is crowded with videos of young musicians prettifying, slowing down, whisper-singing, and harmonizing boomer era classics. Regarding indie pop/rock music as a whole, one could argue a truly new musical sound has not emerged since rap and punk in the '70s. Nothing inherently wrong with re-recording the classics, but at some point they become a trap.
@h d Sooner or later the creative pinnacle is reached, and everything becomes redundant or transcends into something unrecognizable. A transgenre.
Never heard of them before, fantastic harmonies.
Should have named themselves the Sirens .The girl in checked shirt ,her voice touches my soul.
Mine too.
Bruce Springsteen sucks but you gals don't. Beautiful harmonies!
idk whats harder.. those fly harmonies or my erection.
Very amazing. Honestly the original was kinda creepy. You mad it so much.
Dang, that harmony is awesome!!!!
👌🏼
staves, am big bruce fan,,,,,,and that was magic.
Delicious
I'd eat their shite if they asked me to
i don't like it at all. They add nothing to the song but instead make it whiny.
Loses a wee bit of the darkness of the Boss’s rendition but beautiful in a completely different way. I suppose that’s the point of covering a song.
Who’s listening to this with an itchy arse?
Sounds like you could possibly use a doctors visit, Dave. Good luck!
The Influences
But Doctor, I am Pagliacci.
Beautiful performance homage of a beautiful song. Cheers ladies. Cheers Bruce. ❤️
Hey little girl, is your daddy home?
Did he go away and leave you all alone? Mhmm
I got a bad desire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Tell me now, baby, is he good to you?
And can he do to you the things that I do? Oh no
I can take you higher
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby
Edgy and dull and cut a six inch valley
Through the middle of my skull
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running through the middle of my head
Only you can cool my desire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Woo ooh ooh
Woo ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Woo ooh ooh
Woo ooh ooh
Holy cheeseball!!!!!! Those harmonies are ON fIRE!!!!!
I am SHOOK. ♥️
just added these gals to my "I like this music" list...got their name from watching a video by the 3 sister group "Joseph"...check them out, they're similarly enchanting.
holy shit
Beautiful rendition..
Thank you.
You're all amazing.
❤❤👍👌
great harmonies <3 love it
Very good. You are wonderful.....Greetings from Italy .... from the heart
A low key album release of covers would be great.
Like this better than the original version. ❤️
Fantastic. Every damn thing about it. Those harmonies just kill me. Wow.
Did she really just say through the middle of my skull lmao???
Every thumb I could ever have up!
The stoves - I'm on fire
Magic 💎
Go find “Austin to Boston” it’s where they were they first exposed to the US
my son loves this
Super. Thank you!!
Magically beautiful 🦋
Never heard this group before. *at first line, walks into door frame looking across room at computer*
Where was the rest of the song?? That was weird
They could’ve like, said “Hey, little boy, is your daddy home?” Why did they not? True cover!!!!
I didn't know Bruce Springsteen wrote a song for The Staves! They ARE on fire!!
Guitar girl is the truth.
Jesus,that was magic!
beautiful!
Love 💓
Simply beautiful!
good god
100% perfect, thank you ladies !
and they say perfection doesn't exist.
Who's listening to this in 2019😋
Right now and thoroughly enjoying it.
I as well.
Repeatedly....
Amazing
Beautiful
Wow that harmony 💗
Just discovered their video's, gonna binge.
The select few. My god ladies. Appreciation station 😘
Honeyed ambrosia never tasted as sweet as their harmonies.
beautiful. mic the guitar and you're 100%
Music to its bare essential 🙏🏽
OMFG....the harmonies here are glorious! Awesome cover, ladies!
This reinterpretation is so sexy, just made me wet... and I am a guy.
Does anyone know the tuning and chords to this version? Absolutely beautiful. Reduced to the minimum, just stunning!
One of my favorite songs and this is honestly one of my favorite covers of any song!
I just shaved....and now I have goosebumps...thanks ladies! 😜❤️❤️❤️
The 3 graces.
It impressive to see British girls singing like their from Appalachia. If the girl didn't introduce the group in the beginning, I would have never guessed they were not American.
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooook
I always wondered if there was a female version of Crosby Stills Nash. I guess now I know!
that harmony happened and i subscribed
Great harmonising, greetings everyone from the Justmade2 channel here in Manchester
Actual heaven
No one piggy backing here,all three voices immense.
I’m Clarence Clemons youngest son! I wish I could show my father this beautiful!🙌🏾
Love your dad's music
Check out Matt Andersen as well, he also does a beautiful cover of this song.
your dad was cool, talented and something else too, that thing that is hard to name but you can see it it, hear it, feel it.
Your Dad was a true legend. I love this cover too. Best wishes.
