Do you mean the sound that sounds like Kate going "Ooh ooh <pause> ooh
ooh"?  Sure sounds like it to me!  Then again, it could just be Kate
going "ooh ooh" in a precise manner....  I vote for the Fairlight,
though.  There is definitely a Fairlight sound like that in "Night of
The Swallow", but there it sort of bugs me a little (it's one of the very
very few things on the album I don't think is absolutely perfect -- NotS
is still one of my very favorite songs, however).  There it sounds too
much like the bumpers on one of these high-tech pinball games I used to
watch people play (one of the bumpers was female and one was male).
When you were done, it would say "Try me again".
