Feel the Fire is Claudja Barry's fourth studio album, released late 1979 on Lollipop Records in Europe. It was the second and final album of her American album deal with Chrysalis Records. It spawned a minor hit single with the title track "You Make Me Feel the Fire" which peaked at No. 55 on Billboard's Disco Chart. "Stop He's a Lover" was the second single in February 1980, following Barry's performance on Tokyo Music Festival where she won silver, but the single failed to chart. Italy chose a release of "Get Your Mind Made Up" for their second single.
The album was the first of her LP's to be released with the same track-list worldwide. It also marked the first time Barry had a hand in the songwriting of all songs but one, a cover of Ian Dury's "Wake Up and Make Love with Me". The album made a brief appearance on the Canadian chart, peaking at No. 95 in January 1980.
