Cross the Line

Had this a bit too loud on my headphones today and noticed a few things, wanted to know your thoughts!

1. At 2:20-ish, the strings start to resemble the intro to Graffiti Bridge.

2. At 1:08-1:14 you can hear another song in the background. Sounds a lot like "I Wish U Heaven" or "So Strong", but I guess it could be anything.

3. At 3:44 you hear the riff from Cosmic Day

Anybody able to pick anything else out of this song? I'll bet a bunch of melodies show up that Prince was toying with at the time.

Anyone hear anything? I guess I'm crazy.

I always think it's the ancestor of The Future.

Sorry I mean The Line, is that the song you mean here?

Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad.

The track u're talking of is, in fact, called Intermission (not to be confused with the Hornheads track of the same name that was included on the SOV video). All the samples have already been documented: http://www.princevault.co...termission

Anyone who can identify the faint song playing at the 1 minute mark would get a high-five. It's probably just the other side of the tape this came from.

Never realized that the backing arrangements form "Cosmic Day" were on the intermission thing.
