[[Prince]]’s music comprised reversed synth and organ sounds following [[Ingrid Chavez]]’s spoken part. Her vocals were later lifted and incorporated into [[Intermission]], which (as a studio track played over the PA) opened the second half of [[Lovesexy Tour]] shows. '''Cross The Line''' remains unreleased, however. | |introduction = '''Cross The Line''' is an unreleased song by [[Ingrid Chavez]], recorded with an improvised musical backing by [[Prince]] in mid-December 1987, at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota (shortly after cancelling the release of [[Album: The Black Album|''“The Black Album”'']], during the same set of sessions as [[Reason Enough]], [[Heaven Must Be Near]], [[Crystal City Cry]], [[Wintersong]], [[Whispering Dandelions]], [[Slappy Dappy]], [[Candle Dance]], [[Elephant Box]], [[Touch Of Love]], [[Blue Boy]], [[Jadestone]], [[Sad Puppet Dance]] and [[Standing In The Rain]]).
