Hive OpenMic #104
Hello music lovers live openmic family.
It's a delight that we are gallery once again this week to sing around the topic automatic guitar.
I like the way 
I hope that our music can make an impact in a world where we need peace and love to reign.
For this edition of The open Mic I have brought a song all the way from Nigeria, the song was very common while I was growing up and it was done by one of my favourite artist.
Asa, I love her because of how her song sounds and how she plays the guitar. She also makes the songs very simple and easy to understand. She has done a lot of records and albums and truly deserves more accolades than she often gets.
The title of the song is "fire on the mountain".
This song is not to scare anyone, its to bring to your awareness that with our music we can avoid a lot of danger by making people aware of the harmful practices that are being done and helping them avoid them.
This music calls the attention of the people who were in charge of quenching that fire and also reminded us that one day if you don't quench that fire it's going to overflow and burn down every other thing that we tried to build.
In the picture story of A soldier, a story of a lover boy and the story of a little girl.
The soldier has launched the fight but has lost the purpose for which he fights, is he fighting for his people or just for the love of the gun.
The lover has been blinded and doesn't mind stealing diamonds from a Deadman to give to his love.
And little girl who has been spoilt by what she sees on TV and already having mental affections.
This may not sound like world war battlefield or crimes,but there are surely things that will war against our society if care is not taken and with our music ASA has made this known to everyone who loves her songs.
We all live in a world where various weapons exist to destroy people. This open mic gives us an opportunity to look away from those kinds of weapons and focus and the instrument of our heart the power of music.
You don't have to play a guitar before you can sing and do you have to know how to sing before you can spoken to by a song.
So if you love what you hear then learn from it.
Music goes beyond just the melody and the beat, music is an art of teaching, entertaining, healing, and very much loving.
I hope that you listen to my own firing of Music and this video that you would enjoy it and get all of this from the music that I share with you from Asa.
I want to invite my Nigerians friends who may very well know this song to join and sing along.. 
LYRICS
Mmm
Worry, oh, oh
Mmm-mm
There is fire on the mountain
And nobody seems to be on the run
Oh, there is fire on the mountaintop
And no one is a-runnin'
I wake up in the mornin'
Tell you what I see on my TV screen
I see the blood of an innocent child
And everybody's watchin'
Now I'm looking out my window
And what do I see?
I see an army of a soldier man
Marching across the street, yeah
Hey, Mr. Soldier man
Tomorrow is the day you go to war
But you are fighting for another man's cause
And you don't even know him
Oooh!
What did he say to make you so blind
To your conscience and reason?
Could it be love for your country?
Or for the gun you use in killing?
So... there is fire on the mountain
And nobody seems to be on the run
Oh, there is fire on the mountaintop
And no one is a-runnin'
Hey, Mr. Lover man
Can I get a chance to talk to you?
'Cause you are fooling with a dead man's corpse
And you don't know what you do
So you say you have a lover
And you love her like no other
So you buy her a diamond that someone has died on
Don't you think there something wrong with this?
Tell me!
Who's responsible for what we teach our children?
Is it the Internet or the stars on television?
Why? Oh why? Why? Oh, Why? Oh!
So little Lucy turns 16
And like the movie, she's been seen
She has a lover in her daddy
She can't tell nobody 'til she makes the evening news
For there is fire on the mountain
And there is nobody seems to be on the run
Oh, there is fire on the mountaintop
And no one is a-runnin', oh yes
One day the river will overflow
And there'll be nowhere for us to go
And we will run, run
Wishing we had put out the fire, oh
For there is fire on the mountain, yeah, yeah
And there ain't nobody seems to be on the run
Nobody, nobody, oh!
Oh, there is fire on the mountaintop
And no one is a-runnin', so, yeah, yeah, yeah
There is fire on the mountain (fire in Africa, oh)
Nobody seems to be on the run
(Fire everywhere, everywhere in the sea, yeah!)
Fire on the mountaintop (fire in the ocean, la-da!)
No one is a-runnin'
Fire on the mountain (fire, fire, fire, yeah)
Nobody seems to be on the run (nobody)
I remember when this song was played on the radio every Saturday morning.. hehe.
