Approximately one month after the usage of said image, it was an industry rumour that Interlude would be the 2024 Record Store Day release.
There are conflicting reports as to the amount made for RSD coupled with reported regional supply issues, but previous RSDs have been circa 3000-5000 copies.

Initial reports at the time suggested that Morrissey and Siouxsie had recorded Timi's "Hurt". It is unknown if it was ever recorded or was just misreported.

It's two people with zero chemistry singing a love song (and from what we've heard, didn't even like each other)... and that's how it sounds. It's one of those things where I wanted to like it more but just couldn't, and this was at a time when I loved everything he did. Surely there could have been a better song to duet on.


I don’t think they sung it together (at the same time). I could be wrong, don’t mind being corrected if anyone knows how it was recorded.
