"The Day the Earth Caught Fire" is the explosive title track from City Boy’s 1979 album, blending progressive rock ambition with sharp pop sensibilities. Marked by dramatic vocals, intricate arrangements, and a soaring chorus, the song tells a dystopian tale of global catastrophe with cinematic flair. Produced by Robert John “Mutt” Lange, the track showcases City Boy’s tight musicianship and flair for theatrical storytelling, making it one of the band’s most powerful and memorable statements.
