The music to this song is good... but the lyrics are very silly!

I often wondered about the rivalry between Carl Wayne and Roy Wood: each had excellent voices and could sing lead vocals. When the Move first hit the scene Carl led: but seemed to be gradually upstaged by Roy - until Carl just vanishes...

Una thanks for the female insight on this one. I was15 in an all boys school in Glasgow and wondered. Wonder what you felt when they released Wild Tiger Woman in 69. btw saw the Move on that Hendrix package tour that came to town in Dec67 w/ Floyd & Nice & Move. Move were great!

When I was a young girl this was the most risky song ever. I sort of liked The Move (I had seen them in those suits) but then they changed. Still, at school i imagined myself that girl (oh, how I wished).This is still a song I like from my youth.

brilliant! someone has already commented "punk rock"and I agree, some of them could easily pass for punk rockers!! Way ahead of their time, but brilliant all round, sounds great and fresh after how many years?Oh and who is the presenter? He sound Irish, I feel I should know him.Anyway solved it with the help of google and youtube search it is Dave Cash, the accent is one he acquired working in Canda (I thought it sounded a bit american)

Classic Rock : Those were the daysBack to the 60sThe Move - Fire Brigade From the album : Move (1968)"Fire Brigade" is a song written by Roy Wood and performed by The Move, with Wood on lead vocal. The song contains a guitar figure straight out of Duane Eddy. Glen Matlock of the Sex Pistols admitted some years later that this guitar had strongly influenced him when they were writing their single, "God Save the Queen"."Fire Brigade" influenced "Firehouse" from the self-titled debut album by Kiss.Released as a single in Britain in February 1968, it reached number three in the UK Singles Chart. A cover version was recorded by The Fortunes and released as a single in the US, but did not chart.The book included with the 4-CD boxed set ­Anthology 1966–1972, released in October 2008, noted that sessions for the song began on 16 November 1967 at Olympic Studios in Barnes, London. Anthology includes both the finished version which was released as a single, as well as an early, previously unreleased version with Matthew Fisher of Procol Harum on piano. An earlier retrospective release, the 3-CD ­Movements: 30th Anniversary Anthology, from 1997, also has two slightly different recordings - the final version, and an undubbed one, before backing vocals, tambourine and opening 'fire engine' sound effects were added.
