Feuer und Flamme (German for "Fire and Flame", with the additional figurative meaning of "great enthusiasm"), released in 1985, is the third album by German pop band Nena and the fourth studio album of its singer, Gabriele "Nena" Kerner. The album was a success, reaching No. 2 in Germany.

Prompted by the success of 99 Luftballons (1984), which included English-language versions of songs from the band's first two albums, Nena recreated Feuer und Flamme in English as It's All in the Game (1985), with lyrics by Canadian singer Lisa Dalbello. The experiment failed commercially and was not repeated with the band's next album. Gabriele Kerner recorded a new bilingual German-English version of "Anyplace, Anywhere, Anytime" with Kim Wilde in 2002.

This track list represents the CD version of Feuer und Flamme. The LP edition has tracks 4 and 9 swapped. Length of track 10 on LP is 5:14 due to the much shorter (partly edited out) instrumental intro. On some CD releases, length of track 3 is 5:09.

All English lyrics are written by Lisa Dalbello, except for bonus tracks 11–13.

Of the bonus tracks on the 2008 reissue, "At the Movies" was first released in 1984 as a single coupled with its German original, "Kino", from Nena (1983); "Just a Dream" and "99 Red Balloons" are tracks from 99 Luftballons (1984), here remixed; and the remix of "It's All in the Game" reprises the title track of the present album.
