Break Down

Two Main Versions

* "Full Version" (1981) - Chemical Playschool 1 (9:11)

* "Edited Version" (1981) - Prayer for Aradia Bonus Tracks (1:43)

The Edited Version starts in the same way, then fades out slowly. It is incorrectly referred to as "Fin" on the Prayer for Aradia CD.

AKA "Shit, It's Raining." Really two instrumental songs, both similar but with a distinct division between the two.

Unavailable elsewhere.

Instruments: Discordant sequenced keyboard playing repetative pattern. Three sequenced keyboards, one taking the lead and modulating in various ways, another quacking in a way that Ka-Spel uses during "Inferno/Illusion," a third playing a primitive four-note bassline; snatches of indecipherable sped-up vocals; backwards snippets from "Before the End"; the backwards guitar solo from the beginning of the Throbbing Keyboard version of "Thursday Night Fever; snippet from the beginning of "Stars on Sunday."

Why You Should Care:

Seems a bit like a prototypical "Premonition" song, being a long, listenable experiment that stays more-or-less within a single theme and uses elements from previous songs.
