“Fire and Ice” by Cinderella

"Fire and Ice" sits on Long Cold Winter, the second album from glam metal band Cinderella, which Mercury released in July 1988. It wasn't one of the record's four singles, but it's pure Tom Keifer: he wrote it alone and sings lead, and he produced it with bassist Eric Brittingham and Andy Johns, who also engineered, before Michael Barbiero and Steve Thompson mixed it.

Keifer and Jeff LaBar handle the electric guitars over Brittingham's bass and Fred Coury's drums, and the credits call in reinforcements: Cozy Powell and Denny Carmassi on additional drums, Paulinho da Costa on percussion, and Rick Criniti on Hammond organ, piano and synthesizer. The album around it went to number 10 in the US and had shipped two million copies there before 1988 was out.
