According to my lyrics booklet (included with my _Hounds of Love_ CD
(EMI Manhatten CDP 7 46164 2) ), Kate samples helicopter sounds from the
wall in "Waking the Witch" (one of my favorite KaTe songs, by-the-way).
To quote:
	"Helicopter by kind permission of Pink Floyd 'The Wall' "

I didn't see anything in the credits for _The Dreaming_.

I have a compact disc of _The Dreaming_ (EMI America CDP 7 46361 2) that
has a booklet of the complete lyrics in it.  I bought it last November,
so maybe it's a re-issue or something.  Or maybe yours is a re-issue?
Or from the UK?

Yes on the first question.  To either most or all, I can't remember.  Kate is 
well represented on the Lyrics Server.  I have successfully retrieved lyrics, 
but have not tried within the last month.
