The track is, in essence, a sound collage, rather than a song, and was recorded specifically to be played during the [[Lovesexy Tour]] shows, as the intermission piece (hence the name) between the first and second halves of the show. As such, it was never intended for inclusion on any studio project. | |
[[Intermission]] includes many elements from other tracks, as well as many unique parts. It opens with deep synth notes and some classical-sounding synth work, before a female voice recites a portion of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Shakespeare William Shakespeare]'s play [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romeo_and_Juliet Romeo and Juliet] ([http://www.shakespeare-literature.com/Romeo_and_Juliet/9.html Act 2, Scene 2]). This was originally recorded for [[Modernaire]] and it's possibly the voice of [[Jill Jones]]. The background contains some [[Clare Fischer]] arranged strings lifted from [[Crystal Ball]] (which was unreleased at the time). [[Ingrid Chavez]]'s poem [[Cross The Line]] is then sampled in full, with underneath it the arrangement that [[Clare Fischer]] did for [[Cosmic Day]] (which remains unreleased to this day). <br> | [[Intermission]] includes many elements from other tracks, as well as many unique parts.
