"Interlude" is a 1968 song written and composed by Georges Delerue and Hal Shaper and originally performed by American soul singer Timi Yuro.

In 1994, the song was covered in a duet by Morrissey and Siouxsie Sioux and released as a single in August of that year by EMI.

Melody Maker published a news item in May 1993, announcing that Morrissey and Siouxsie were "holding discussions at the moment, with a view to recording a duet to release as a single".

The single's sleeve is a cropped version of the photograph Girl Jiving in Southam St. by Roger Mayne, the model being Eileen Sheekey.

[citation needed] The single was retrospectively well received by MacKenzie Wilson of AllMusic, who considered the performers to be "one of the finest duos in modern rock."

"[8] Spin also praised the collaboration, saying : "Two heroes enterwine their voices - Siouxsie's torchily rich, Morrissey's expansively wobbly - for a song about romance that actually doesn't sound doomed".
