Start the Fire (Alcazar song)

"Start the Fire" is a song by Swedish band Alcazar, released as the second single from their compilation album Dancefloor Deluxe, before their three-year hiatus. The chorus is borrowed from Billy Joel's classic hit "We Didn't Start the Fire", though the verses are completely new. It also features samples from "Heartache # 9" by Delegation. The maxi single contains two previously unreleased tracks "Glamourama" and "Nothing But the Video On".
