Background
Following "Intensify", "Mindcircus" was released as the third single from Intensify. In 2002, Black Hole released Mindcircus (Remixes) which reached #6 on Billboard's US Dance Club Songs chart.[5] A music video for the song was also filmed.[6]
BBC Music's 2002 review of Intensify described the song positively, praising Trisha Lee Kelshall's vocal performance. Christian Hopwood wrote "Trisha Lee Kelshall provides a firm tie to their house moorings as her vocals chisel a melancholy edge to the lush arrangements of "Mindcircus"".[2]
