I’m the Firestarter…
Admitly a 90s electro song from Prodigy doesn’t have much to do with Sweetflag’s Firestarter Travel Kit, other than sharing its name. But we get a kick out of imagining the spikey haired punk-ish Prodigy singer city kid from the dirty streets of London… out for a first night of camping under alpine stars, like some kind of post-apocalyptic solo raver, struggling to start a fire in the cold dark and singing his song quietly angry to himself as he strikes flint to steel again and again trying to light his fire and his bowl. The flash of each sparkles failure echoed with building rage in his overly made up eyes and on the sneering of his big sad clown lips as he sings…
“I’m a firestarter, twisted firestarter
You’re the firestarter, twisted firestarter
I’m the self inflicted, mind detonator
Yeah! I’m the one infected, twisted animator
I’m a firestarter, twisted firestarter
You’re the firestarter, twisted firestarter
I’m a firestarter, twisted firestarter starter”
Rave on Solo-Raver, rave on…
