God damn! I've never paid this song nearly the attention it deserves. I'm 53, so I heard this when I was a kid, but I never gave it a second thought. Right now, being mildly drunk and with the world getting more and more stupid by the second, is just the right moment for this fine piece of music to penetrate my brain. So much passion and power in his voice! I am now a fine, like 38 years late.
5th grade school year and I forgot all about it! That's when getting old is a bummer. Thankfully I have a son about the same age I was back then to remind me of growing up in the 80s and the great times by the boom box. This song was totally unique to anything going on at that time. Permanently added back to my library. 😎

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 Burnt at the stake, on a bed of fire My body rises, taking me higher My love’s desire, is pure ascension fire And love is the FAITH that keeps on burning I love to feel the RAIN IN THE SUMMERTIME
