A short spoken word vocal section can be heard above the track lead-in. The contributing artist for these vocals is Juanita Boxill, whose voice also features in "Little Speaker", track five of A Hundred Days Off. Boxill is the namesake of separate Underworld single "Juanita / Kiteless / To Dream of Love". A stripped-down and slightly sonically reworked version of the song's bridge features in "And I Will Kiss" and "Caliban's Dream", songs written by Smith for the 2012 Summer Olympics opening ceremony.^{[citation needed]}
