I've been sharing Asa's music for four years now. Back then, no one in the US had heard of her. I keep sharing. She's going to be a global SuperStar. I just know it.
when I first heard thus song as a kid i didn't understand it, it was just another song that played on the television and got stuck in my head but this morning I'm listening to it feel sorry for ignorance
A true prophet. She did warn us about our over reliance on oil 'One day the river will overflow'. This is what we are experiencing today.The river is overflowing and we dont have a place to run to.
I was in sixth form college with a niece of fela also the daughters of Obasanjo abiola seraki etc,, I heard them playing fela,I loved it ,they were surprised but he went on to be very popular in uk
I came to find solace after the death of Deborah (in Sokoto) and Dave (in Lagos). This is an evergreen reference to the truth in Nigeria. Thank you Asa. #JusticeForDeborah #JusticeForDave
I agree Obioma! I was just about to post the same thought. I hope the poor souls afflicted with hearing impairment get treatment soon! This is a superb song, from a truly great singer.
Rahmat Adejumo here in Nigeria, I wish we have someone like Trump, who truly loves his country. You Americans should wake up and support your President and stop watching Saturday night laughs and CNN brainwashing you to hate your President. You guys are so ignorant.
VICTOR OCHI I understand we need a good president in Nigeria,but not someone like trump I wonder the qualities you see in him to make you think he is the best,yes he is helping the country in some ways so is Buhari,we need a president with good intentions and love for the country as well as the people... Buhari and Trump are not one of those
YEAH...WE NEED AN AGGRESSIVE PRESIDENT LIKE TRUMP AND SENSIBLE LIKE MANDELA TOO..TO RULE NIGERIA..U MUST BLOW HOT MOST OF THE TIMES AND COLD VERY FEW TIMES
The time will come, we will look behind us and find out we left this song and we will go back and pick it up and the whole world will listen to it with us for as the fire grow bigger this will be our anthem of awareness.
Please bring the song back because it makes me cry, just listening to something similar and it just jogged my memory to come back to this song. I miss you.
Grammies should be given , the song and the music video are two different masterpieces , this is the definition of underrated . ASA speaking for Current Nigerian scenery still from 12 years ago???...damn 🧎
After watching ur live performance on NNPC Relaunch; I had to come back to play the full song cos I know some vital part of the lyrics are missing. God bless you for this powerful message ASA🙏
Asa God bless you so great dear sis. I have always loved you, your songs and I will forever love “Asa and Asa sings” Am so proud of you dear sis. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤❤❤❤ LOVE you
My brother was working out in Malawi and came back home insisting that we listen to this song. He felt so strongly about what Asa was singing about in this song. He died a few years later... we're now in 2020 facing this pandemic and my mum said the other day that my brother and I guess Asa was trying to tell us something. There is Fire on the mountain. And no one is running. Most people in my neighbourhood aren't taking this virus seriously. Even though people are contracting and dying all around us.
Asa's First Album "Asha" remains her best body of work till date and Fire on the Mountain & Eye Adaba are my favorite songs off the album. Before Nigerian music became mainstream, i remember walking into a Starbuck here in Canada and hearing our music, it blew my mind. This was 2010
I’m afraid I am late in finding this amazing naija artist. I discovered Brymo and now her. So glad I did. Can’t believe I was walking this art without knowing her amazing music.
you can't truly appreciate yourself until you appreciate the beauty in others, i feel sad that a lot of people refuse to see this and they waste their precious time hating others, all i pray is that one day they will understand
Tears flow when your heart truely hears these words. This song is for every generation to stop being complacent. Lets keep praying...even those who dont know how...Just say Jesus Please help us all. Every nation has fires on the mountain....
There is fire on the mountain, And nobody seems to be on the run. Oh there is fire on the mountain top, And no one is a running. I wake up in the morning Tell you what I see on my TV screen I see the blood of an innocent child, And everybody's watching. Now, I'm looking out of my window, And what do I see? I see an army of soldiers that are Marching across the street What did they 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 mountain top, And no one is a running. Hey, Mister 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. Oh So little Lucy turns sixteen, And like the movie she's been seeing, She has a lover in her daddy. She can't tell nobody 'Till she makes the evening news. For there is fire on the mountain, And nobody seems to be on the run. Oh there is fire on the mountain top, And no one is ah running. 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 no Traduire en français
by this Asa was a prophet, she passed the message of military brutality as we have recently witnessed on the 20th October, 2020 at Lekki Toll gate massacre. She saw the future, and more is still coming from this mountaintop.
Can't Believe This Been 10 years ago Still recall The first time I heard this masterpiece on RFI I looked For month for the Artist, found you and since Then You Keep the Good Vybz coming Be Blessed
Watching and crying right now cause I was actually six years old when this song was released. I watched it when I was 9yrs old and I was just relaxing when this song popped into my head and I decided to search it on RUclips it’s been almost 18yrs now since ive seen this video wow it just bring many memories to me 😢❤ thank you for this masterpiece 😊
This song came to my mind this morning (3rd October 2022) after seeing Tinubu cycling on Twitter and Atiku dancing on TikTok and some gullible ones applauding them online 😏 There is fire on the mountain and Thank God many Nigerians are aware and AWAKE! It's Nigerian's time!

It’s the accuracy of the song that makes me sad 😢

Don’t worry, you ain’t the only one who is rewatching old Asa songs.

The only one in #2021 though 😅
I did

This song is so underrated.
OK-Sade Good songs are usually underrated.

She did it!
Your the real
She is indeed. 😊
Lmao my name is Asa
This song is still so relevant with all the police brutality protests going on in Nigeria #SARSMUSTEND #SARSMUSTENDNOW
🥺❤️

2024 on est là!!
when I first heard thus song as a kid i didn't understand it, it was just another song that played on the television and got stuck in my head but this morning I'm listening to it feel sorry for ignorance
Real message here
i was 2
Even me, bt now I knw what the song is all about. Police brutally, Insecurity banditry and boko haram in Nigeria
My Nigerian friends sang this during a picnic on our uni campus this summer and ive been obsessed with this song since. Love from the UK 🙌
Asa warned us here in Nigeria with this beautuiful song 5 years ago but still...... God please save Nigeria!
I thought about that listening to it today. " Til she makes the even news."
This song was 10 years ago
Nigerians are their own worst enemy. The government sales to the highest bidder, while oppressing its people.
God helps those whom help themselves.
I always refer to her. And this track.
I really need to get more in touch with my roots..... British Nigerian. All ASA's song make me cry....never caught so many feelings before.
We still jamming to this hit!!! We ain't stopping.
A true prophet. She did warn us about our over reliance on oil 'One day the river will overflow'. This is what we are experiencing today.The river is overflowing and we dont have a place to run to.
Asa is such a phenomenal singer, she doesn't get as much accolades as she deserves.
Such a talent with beautiful vocals and music
Now, this is good music. It's been 13 years, and I still can't let go..
She is the best Nigeria ever have as a singer! Great personality, not a show and have a her style❤️
felA IS NO 1...SADE TOO..SHE IS OK TOO
ASA is a legend on her own right.... But Fela Kuti is the best muscian Nigeria has ever produced!!!
Nneka
No, surely fela es the best Nigeria has produced
I was in sixth form college with a niece of fela also the daughters of Obasanjo abiola seraki etc,, I heard them playing fela,I loved it ,they were surprised but he went on to be very popular in uk
I came to find solace after the death of Deborah (in Sokoto) and Dave (in Lagos). This is an evergreen reference to the truth in Nigeria. Thank you Asa. #JusticeForDeborah #JusticeForDave
#endsars
We used to listen to this _religiously_ in my family it was the best and still is the best thing
Asa deserves a Grammy. She deserves anything more than a Grammy
146 people that dislike this are surely deaf 'cause this song is outta this world!
prob just people still trying to justify, to themselves, going to "fight wars" believing they saving their own country.
loved this song ever since i first heard it
great
I agree Obioma! I was just about to post the same thought. I hope the poor souls afflicted with hearing impairment get treatment soon! This is a superb song, from a truly great singer.
Martin Treacy thanks for this. Such a soulful song by a wonderful and solemn voice.
Asa was singing about 2020 there is fire on the mountain we didn't listen to ASA,
How many people do you think listen to her??(Nigerians especially)
@@imuetiyanogieva4640 Not a lot and when we do we are not really listening to the message which is just a shame, God help us
@@imuetiyanogieva4640I think the young generation are listening my daughter introduced me to Asa about 8 years ago
@@toyinbabalola9223 I love her all the way from South Africa. This song speaks to most African countries
Not only in Africa again now there is fire in America,God have mercy,time to listen to more Asa music....I think I'm the only one here🙄

Welcome to 2024, the fire don really de burn naija finish but we ain't still running 😢
Asa remains my best musician. I am the type of person that pays attention to lyrics, Asa remains topnotch!
I love this song, greetings from Algeria.
Proud to be african ❤️
In 20yrs I will still be listening to this song, so prophetic
The time will come, we will look behind us and find out we left this song and we will go back and pick it up and the whole world will listen to it with us for as the fire grow bigger this will be our anthem of awareness.
World war 3 is around the corner and nobody is doing anything about it. There is really fire on the mountain. 😂😂😂
Please bring the song back because it makes me cry, just listening to something similar and it just jogged my memory to come back to this song. I miss you.
Can’t duplicate this song ❤
This song can be applied to many life's issues... very deep and philosophical and practical at the same time.
Asa ❤❤❤. Na wetin dem dey call music be this ❤❤❤
October 2024 till infinity ♾️
She is a prophet,,, Nigeria today, blood of innocent people,, the only part I kw them,, was the last ves,,, miss preacher
im morrocan, but I feel my African roots grow when I listen to this song, go afrika.

The video and the songs are lit am here in 2022 April
Listening to this after the Owo Catholic church massacre. May the lost souls RIP. It’s chaos in Nigeria. Very valid message, thank you Asa.
Thanks for leading me here, Tems!
She is phenomenal !!! I love her music and listen to it endlesslessly! The words are brilliant :)
trace chapman la may fatali! daggay guiss-ni way si dérétam bi la nék! yalna la yallah fay néxal ci ngay néxal sunu xol-yi Asa!
She's always so satirical it's so different from the music in the charts.
this music is like someone touching your soul with their words i would have to say in my opinion she is one of the greatest artists of our time.
yep!
Wow ❤
I remember my parents playing this song and her other songs in the car when I was little,brings back memories
It's October 2024.
There's still fire on the mountain and no one is running.
Stuff is happening and it seems nothing is happening.
This is a grammy deserved song and video
Who is here again in 2024 , that's Nigeria current situation, there's a fure on the mountain and everyone seemd relax
Grammies should be given , the song and the music video are two different masterpieces , this is the definition of underrated . ASA speaking for Current Nigerian scenery still from 12 years ago???...damn 🧎
Asa saw years ago what was going to happen in Nigeria in 2020. Lord please save Nigerians and heal the broken hearted. 😭😭😭
After watching ur live performance on NNPC Relaunch; I had to come back to play the full song cos I know some vital part of the lyrics are missing. God bless you for this powerful message ASA🙏
Listening from Fiji...love you to much.💚
I listened to this music just 2 days after it was released and I can still sing it perfectly 😅. Asa was my favorite back then
Asa God bless you so great dear sis.
I have always loved you, your songs and I will forever love “Asa and Asa sings”
Am so proud of you dear sis. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤❤❤❤ LOVE you
I have liked her for over 8 years now. Asa is awesome.
hello
Asa, my favorite of all time. Asa, the best to have come out of Nigeria, probably even Africa. And this song.,....oh my!
In this moment. ~"Fire in the Mountain."~ Hope everyone be safe, and stay well.
Gather here and like if you feel that Asa song describes Nigerians current state, with the on going sars and SWAT. #EndSarsNow
Acabei de conhecer essa voz maravilhosa !!!! Que pessoa incrível !!!
The way I understand this song presently makes me acknowledge growing up is really important

Good music never dies am still coming here to listen in 2090
I just randomly remembered this song. Brings back so many memories. Glad im here ,will listen to Mr Jailer next
Nigerians what did y'all do to ASA , haven't heard her songs in a minute
Someone told me I resemble her. Its an honor to be compared to such a beautiful and creative artist
2024 still Rocking
An existing ICON! Super talented Asa.

There is fire on the mountain,
And nobody seems to be on the run.
Oh there is fire on the mountain top,
And no one is a running.
I wake up in the morning
Tell you what I see on my TV screen
I see the blood of an innocent child,
And everybody's watching.
Now, I'm looking out of my window,
And what do I see?
I see an army of soldiers that are
Marching across the street
What did they 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 mountain top,
And no one is a running.
Hey, Mister 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. Oh
So little Lucy turns sixteen,
And like the movie she's been seeing,
She has a lover in her daddy.
She can't tell nobody
'Till she makes the evening news.
For there is fire on the mountain,
And nobody seems to be on the run.
Oh there is fire on the mountain top,
And no one is ah running. 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 no

Thank you
I listen to this always and there's this chill in my head maki ngf me proud as a Nigerian! This song here is all lyrics + beats
Much love...from Ghana
This is so relatable to Nigeria situation right now.
The fire is sooo burning
The double bass is real cool... always in her songs
quelle voix quelle chanson quelle beauté merci de ce partage!!!!
Takes me back to 2008, or whenever it was released... I loved it to bits
I am a Nigerian who has been living in America, my parents keep talking about how Nigeria is doomed, I'm praying for you my brothers and sisters
Nigeria has been in worse shape. We aren't close to the bottom.
I hope I’m not the only one from 2023 watching all old Asa songs.
The first time I heard this song, it was the tune to a poi (poi is a traditional māori dance) and it was beautiful 👌🏼
2019 December and I’m still hooked
How Can I Not Be In Love With Passing Messages Through Music
Asa legit predicted the future 😭
Thank you for the memories Asa
