Fireball is a troublesome album because to me you couldn't have had
Fireball without In Rock, but you couldn't have Machine Head without
Fireball.
So it sits very nicely as part of those three really good
rock albums and I think the fact that it wanders slightly from its original, from
say, the remit that we'd set up with In Rock, the fact that it wanders slightly
from that doesn't worry me at all.
I mean I love Fireball, I think it
does good things, I think it goes to places that the band wasn't expected to go to.
The title track is a brahma, I love that thing.
Richie loved playing fast, he loved challenging the rest of the band to play
fast.
Pacey's drumming is dramatically good on that track.
The over amplified sound of an air conditioner unit being switched on at
the beginning to replicate the sound of a spaceship taking off, I'm not
quite sure what it was meant to be but it's pretty cool.
Very fond of the organ
solo on that, it was bloody difficult to play and I was very happy with it.
I just think it's a great idea for a rock song.
Good words and a
wonderful turnaround in the middle, lovely chord changes in the middle.
I'm all about you, I wonder where you're from, I'll give you 100% [A] you
All my [E] love is very long way, [B] way up from [F#] here to [G#] Norway
[B] I do understand you, I try to run up your life
Boy you smile and touch me, oh it sets my heart alight
You're still like a fire, burning through my soul
People ask me where I'm from, you really don't know
[A] All my soul [E] is a long way, [B] where you're from [F#] is a long way
[A#] [E]
[C#m] I'm a rich woman, wrecking up my [C] soul
Things you tell [G] me have never been told
[D] Magic woman, [A] I don't know
[F#] You're like the great big ball, I love you so, I love you so
[B] You're like a fireball, dancing like a ghost
You're damn annoying, I [Bm] don't know which one I like the most
[B] My head is getting broken and my mind is getting lost
Now I'm coming with you down the road, let's go first
[A] All my love is [E] a long way, [Bm] where you're [F#] from is a long [G#] way

[Bm]
Moonlight above [A] you, show [B] me where you're from
Magic in your heart, man, when she's on you, you'll get the power
Stand up on your head, and help me walk around you
Come on and fill me up, I won't give you, won't never love like you
All my [E] love is a long way, [B] where you're [F#] from is a long way
[D] [B]
[Bm]

[Bm]
[G] I think the album, again, because of its various light and shade moments
surprised one or two real heavy rocker fans, you know
I think they thought perhaps it went a bit [D] light
in a couple of places, but I love it, it's great
There's a great song on it called No No No, which I think is fabulous
Fools, great song, great song
Anyone's Daughter, it's great
It's a weird little sidestep, why not?
