It's obviously a song speeded up, but does anyone know what it is: a Duran song, Bowie perhaps? I seem to remember Simon Le Bon mentioning something about a Bo Diddly song way back but then he was being typically aloof! Can't find this mentioned anywhere, apologies if it's already been discussed. Thank you.

I slowed both versions down a while ago, and it sounds like a very rough demo of something they were working on. Simon appears to be singing rubbish as he does when trying to find melodies. I would post them, but we're not allowed anymore

Also, there's a much longer version out there as well (the "demo" version) which is pretty nifty.

gabby - no, that's not it. There's the demo version (at the speed what was on the Big Thing album) but longer. The one on the album is 33 seconds long (slowed down it's 1:07), the demo version (same speed) is 1:27 (that slowed down is 2:54).

This what I said! I posted them in the download section some time back.
2 Versions:
Album Version Extended Demo Version
I slowed down both of these to hear what the track was like before the band did the speeding up on it.

sorry - we've both on different planes of thought here, but the info is the same. :-)

notoriou5 - The song "Interlude 1" appeared on the Big Thing album in between "Palomino" and "Land". The song is only :33 long. When the song is slowed down by half, it's about 1:07. It's music with Simon doing his gibberish vocal style over it since there are no real words. Years later a demo version of "Interlude 1" would show up in a longer form per my previous post. So, two versions exist, album version and demo version.
