Comments

• The background music during the monologue sample is eerily similar to the melody of "The Color of the Fire" / "I Love U".  

Samples / Lyrics

 That tiny room at the beach was absolutely the perfect place for my first time. When we came together, I could feel the hairs growing on my chest. I saw my future. I saw my past. For a few minutes it was like being alive and they live happily ever after. All my questions had been answered. And all my fears disappeared. All that was left was... the kiss. Every move we made was a kiss.

Trivia

• "Sir Prancelot Brainfire" uses a full excerpt of the Piccadilly Players version of Sir Prancelot, a theme song of the cartoon The Adventures of Sir Prancelot. It has an added synth line throughout, and includes a sample of a monologue found in the adult film "Summer of '72" during the "Camberwick Green" middle eight section of the excerpt. The same monologue sample is used in "Sixtyniner".

• "Summer of '72" is also the source of the background music sample used in Niagara and P:C:, as well as Sixtyniner, which uses the same monologue sample as above.

• Mike Paradinas mentions Boards of Canada's cover of "Sir Prancelot Brainfire" in The Quietus.

"The only track that I can find online from the record is the Boards Of Canada version of the Sir Prancelot theme. They had the same album as me, and it was definitely an influence on them. Mike [Sandison, one half of BoC] told me this years ago, because they sent me demos when they were starting out. That Prancelot tune was on there and I noticed it was just ripped off this record that I had. All they’ve added is some ghostly voices over the middle eight."
