Under the anvil of the sun
Sweat, like a train
I come, I come,
My body to dust
Scorched by the might of the sun

Burning light, burning white heat
Like wildfire
I sweat a fever
My body screams
Disintegrates in the heat

Our love is the FAITH that keeps on burning

I love to feel the RAIN IN THE SUMMERTIME
I love to feel the rain on my face
I love to feel the RAIN IN THE SUMMERTIME
I love to feel the rain on my face

Burnt at the stake, on a bed of fire
My body rises
Taking me higher
My loves desire
Is pure ascension fire

And love is the FAITH that keeps on burning

I love to feel the RAIN IN THE SUMMERTIME
I love to feel the rain on my face
I love to feel the RAIN IN THE SUMMERTIME
I love to feel the rain on my face

And then I run 'til the breath tears my throat
'Til the pain hits my side
As if I run fast enough
I can leave all the pain and the sadness behind

I love to feel the RAIN IN THE SUMMERTIME
I love to feel the rain on my face
I love to feel the RAIN IN THE SUMMERTIME
I love to feel the rain on my face
(I love to feel the rain on my face)
(In the summertime)

Met Mike Peters in a club in Northern  England in the early 80s.    Met him and the band again in Toronto at Massey Hall a couple of years later.   He and the band  are solid nice guys.   Sad to know of Mike's health issues.

Love it, now as I did then! And, I'm in practically the same spot as I was then, too! Now, with the rain-clouds rolling in as it plays, hopefully helping to keep this summer fire-free, I smell the fresh air being pushed down the slopes. Perhaps, as yesterday, I'll get a little sprinkling of Holy Water as I ride the bike to work!

The late 80's were a tireless wasteland on non-nutritious music, devoid of composition with no musical influences beyond their own self-referential modified-food-starch and corn-syrup poisonous pop. Just one Bear's opinion-- But hey- don't believe me! Look at the 1987 Billboard top 100 for October 1987 when Eye of the Hurricane was released, #1 was Lost in Emotion by LisaLisa and Cult Jam. Whitesnake charted that month but by then they were a friggin' **hair band.** Tiffany. Billy Idol. All doo-doo, and even the R&B charts sucked it. Q.E.D. Add to the injuries  that the vinyl phonograph record was being replaced that year  by the initially tragic-sounding CD-- **Perfect Sound Forever, Suckers*.

Not to say all 80's pop music was dreck- just 95%. In 1987, U2 released The Joshua Tree, a beautiful landmark album on  themes of American experience, exceptionalism, and thought. It's still beautiful after 35 years. [With or Without You charted.]
 
I feel better now! But I gotta' admit it. If you ignore their countless miles of doo-doo pressed into their other records' record grooves, The Alarm  blazed blindingly for 5 minutes and 12 seconds in that lost, long-forgotten time. This is an outstanding tune that damn near approaches the quality of U2's music- gasp! - but just the one tune. Strange... add them to The Hall of One-Hit Wonders, special mention.

The resulting EP "Electric Folklore Live" is quite good. It seems they are/were better live than in the studio.

Great to hear The Alarm on Radio Paradise - not really because I am a massive fan of their music, but they were local to me in North Wales growing up and were real role models for up and coming bands (as well as being really nice guys as well!)

Mike Peters and his lovely wife Jules have both had serious health problems, so they set up a charitable foundation called Love, Hope, Strength and he still performs at his annual  "Gathering" festival get-together which celebrated its 25th Anniversary in 2017

Just a bit of trivia for all you RP folks :)

First time I saw them and heard this song - SF Auditorium around 1982 - they were the opening act for an exciting new band from Ireland - called U2.  Nice tune.  But IMO U2 had a bit more impact...

Wonderful memories along with this jam. I was living down along Boulder Creek with Mad Patrick, Crazy Mary, and my Siamese cat Syd. Flying Saucers were seen often that summer (the best blotter, from Guffy up in Nederland) and my Japan dream was incubating.

Yep. The Alarm got a lot of flak for being so overblown and that was deserved. This song's bombast doesn't fit the lyric at all. But 68 Guns? It works. Big themes, big sound.
 
By the way, all of these guys are super nice. After I met them I really wanted them to make it. I guess they did.

I loved this song when they overplayed it on the radio back in the day and have enjoyed rediscovering The Alarm years later. These guys were always just trying to be big and brassy and I think the test of time has shown that they cultivated their own sound, U2 comparisons not withstanding.
