Rare demo version of the track Tulip. Believed to be recorded in 1990.
According to Tim Bowness, "The 12 minute Tulip (which was performed live on a couple of occasions) has an intro that was used as the title track and intro to the album Speak and a long, ‘Electro repeat with white noise’ cyclical fade out. I always liked this version, but Steven was less sure about it. We both felt that the coda was perhaps too similar to the endings of Housekeeping and Sweetheart Raw (hence the reason for dropping it).
This demo features elements of Tim's statements, such as the usage of the track Speak as the intro.
