"Fire" is a Southern rock song [5] and features gospel-indebted vocals. [6]
Critical reception
musicOMH's John Murphy stated that the track "gets things started in a suitably smouldering way, a soulful, swaggering number that’s both slow-burning and, when the chorus kicks in, gloriously unrestrained." [7] Graeme Virtue of The Guardian described the song as "a sexy mega-thumper enhanced by mournful melodica toots." [8] Stereogum critic Pranav Trewn called the song "an audacious, groovy slow-burner built on a muted bassline and sold via firecracker guitars and an impeccable-as-ever vocal performance". [9] According to The Independent's Andy Gill, the track's "predatory throb explodes into a chugging fuzz-rock boogie streaked with squalling guitars." [10]
