Gad, IED, Sigue Sigue Sputnik did the exact same thing on their last
album and for their US 12" of "Love Missile F1-11", and I really doubt
you'll be encouraging us to revere and worship them anytime soon.  More
than likely Kate was just worried about the nebulous nature of
copyright law as it regards sampling and didn't want to get into any
legal trouble . . .
