Once the song is played around with then its recorded and the more professional demo process starts. People also confuse alternative versions of songs with demos.
Having said that, it is hard to imagine those catchy lyrics at a slower pace. Its possible that piano intro did not come about until the up-tempo process started. Sadly we may never know. Was there not an interview recently with Chris that she does not remember much of the Mirage making process and it was a weird album or something? There was a heavy drug haze over the band so maybe Lindsey is confused with another song.
Oh, I get that. I just don’t believe he’s made an accurate comment. Based on Christine’s comments about the song she brought to the band, I’m not believing it was ever slower.

But Love Will Show Us How was definitely slower, based on Todd Sharp’s comments as co-writer. Him I believe.
