Ice on Fire, released in November 1985, is the nineteenth studio album by Elton John. Recorded at Sol Studios, it was his first album since Blue Moves produced by his original long-time producer, Gus Dudgeon. David Paton and Charlie Morgan appear for the first time on bass and drums respectively, replacing original band members Dee Murray and Nigel Olsson. Fred Mandel, who had played with John during the Breaking Hearts tour, also contributed guitar and keyboards.

George Michael, then of Wham!, appears on two tracks on the album: "Nikita" and "Wrap Her Up". Other notable guests include Nik Kershaw, Sister Sledge, Pino Palladino, Mel Gaynor and Millie Jackson, who duetted with John on "Act of war". Roger Taylor and John Deacon of Queen play drums and bass guitar on "Too Young".

The album was met with little praise, and only reached #48 on the US charts, although it reached #3 in the UK. "Nikita" and "Wrap Her Up" became top 20 hits, the former reaching #7 in the US and #3 in the UK. In the US it was certified gold in June 1986 by the RIAA.

Track listing

All songs written by Elton John and Bernie Taupin, except where noted.

Side one

  1. "This Town" – 3:56
  2. "Cry to Heaven" – 4:16
  3. "Soul Glove" – 3:31
  4. "Nikita" – 5:43
  5. "Too Young" – 5:12

Side two

  1. "Wrap Her Up" (John, Taupin, Davey Johnstone, Fred Mandel, Charlie Morgan, Paul Westwood) – 6:21
  2. "Satellite" – 3:57 (4:37 on CD reissue)
  3. "Tell Me What the Papers Say" – 3:40
  4. "Candy by the Pound" – 3:56
  5. "Shoot Down the Moon" – 5:09
  • Sides one and two were combined as tracks 1–10 on CD releases.

Bonus track (On the 1985 original CD and the 1992 MCA reissue)

  1. "Act of War" (Duet with Millie Jackson) – 4:43

Bonus tracks (1999 Mercury reissue)

  1. "The Man Who Never Died" (John) – 5:12
  2. "Restless" (Live 1984) – 4:25
  3. "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word" (Live 1977) (Erroneously listed as "Live 1984") – 3:23
  4. "I'm Still Standing" (Live 1984) – 4:52

The remastered 1999 version did not include "Act of War"; the 1999 remaster had a longer intro to "Satellite" than the LP and the 1985 CD issue, and has a slightly different vocal mix. The live version of "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word" is not the version found on the 12" single of "Nikita", but is an unreleased version from 1977 (Live at Rainbow Rock in May). It is unknown why the switch occurred. The other two live tracks were recorded at Wembley Stadium during the tour for the album Breaking Hearts.

According to Elizabeth Rosenthal in her book, His Songs: The Musical Journey of Elton John (p. 260; First edition), the LP's closing track, "Shoot Down the Moon", was considered for the James Bond film A View to a Kill, but the producers instead decided to go with the title track as performed by Duran Duran.

"The Man Who Never Died" is a song written about John Lennon, in addition to "Empty Garden (Hey Hey Johnny)", from Elton John's album Jump Up!
