"Start the Fire" was the final Alcazar single, released in 2005 as a second single from their compilation album Dancefloor Deluxe, before their three-year hiatus. The chorus is borrowed from Billy Joel's classic hit "We Didn't Start the Fire", though the verses are completely new. It also features samples from Heartache # 9 of Delegation. The maxi single contains two previously unreleased tracks "Glamourama" and "Nothing But the Video On". These tracks are rumoured to have been recorded for a third Alcazar studio album.
