However, upon her placing Side A on the turntable, the pressing begins playing the opening monologue for ‘True Romance’, a 1994 track by Thunderhead The Word By Eden.Elsewhere in the video, she turns over the record to see if Side B also had the same error — and another rare ’90s electronic song also plays.
