Tally Hall planned to record Inside The Mind of Simon for [[Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum (Album)|Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum]]. Tracks recorded would include a choir, harpsicord, distorted grand piano, and over 15 other instruments. However the band soon ran into budgetary problems and ultimately had to drop it from the tracklisting.<ref>[https://tallyhall.livejournal.com/6066.html Tally Hall livejournal entry from Coz Baldwin, May 31st, 2005]</ref>

According to a comment on a Tally Hall LiveJournal group, Tally Hall did perform (or intended to perform) Inside The Mind Of Simon at The Pingry School on May 13, 2005, alongside [[Spring And A Storm]].<ref>[https://tallyhall.livejournal.com/26620.html?thread=158716#t158716 LiveJournal post, October 5th, 2005]</ref> At some point in 2006, Inside The Mind of Simon was confirmed to be on their next album. However this, of course, never came true sadly. [[Bora Karaca]]'s band [[Cojum Dip]] recorded an instrumental of the song likely sometime after Inside The Mind Of Simon's recording and would perform it live at [[The Blind Pig]].<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVUqG9txCic Inside the mind of Simon - performed by Cojum Dip at the blind pig. Uploaded: Jul 1st, 2018. YouTube.]</ref> This could suggest it could've been given to Cojum Dip, similar to Rob and [[I'm Gonna Win]].

Inside The Mind of Simon would lay dormant for years until the recording and release of Hawaii: Part II. After release The Mind Electric would gain a cult following and is considered one of Joe Hawley's best songs by fans.
