Starting immediately after the cacophony that ends "21st Century Schizoid Man", the mood of this song is a stark contrast; it is serene, simple and peaceful.
An earlier demo version of this song may be found on the now out-of-print LP A Young Person's Guide to King Crimson, which featured Robert Fripp (guitar), Peter Giles (bass), Michael Giles (drums), and Ian McDonald (flute), along with Judy Dyble (formerly of Fairport Convention) on vocals.
It was released in June 1992 by PWL International as the follow-up to their successful "It's a Fine Day" and the second single from their debut album, Mind Fruit (1992).
AllMusic editor MacKenzie Wilson felt the group's "crafty version" of King Crimson's "I Talk to the Wind" "composes a dreamy synthetic wave."
[7] Randy Clark from Cashbox wrote that her "childlike and breathy voice blows through this dance track like a gentle breeze.
