Oh yes, yes, yes. An otherwise mediocre song sandwiched in between two good bits.

The introduction as a full song.
Very positive comments underneath the video!

Don't we already have this thread?

I wondered if we did and searched for introduction(s)/intro(s) etc. and found no existence of such a thread. Perhaps there was one on the old forum; I do remember similar intro threads.

That is so great to hear that without it collapsing into dullness half a minute in
At the time I did a free translation of the intro into Latin:
Astra, semper volui ut eas, inter astra
(The stars, I always wanted you to go among the stars)

When you hear that version, you suddenly realise the chorus is built over the guitar riff from Smells Like Teen Spirit.
