Can anyone help with the following?  It's for a friend who
doesn't have net access.  It's also rather interesting.

"On the subject of deciphering lyrics, I've noticed
a couple of "background whispers" in the song
BLOW AWAY.  The first one is arround the 1:36 mark (CD)
in between "Buddy Holly ... Sandy Denny"--goes something
like "go sleep/seek".  It is very low in the mix and it has
to be turned up rather loud to pick it up.  The second is
at the 2:38-39 point--over the 1st "Viscious" and is maybe
"aah don't drop" (?)  Once again it isn't easy to pick up."

These seem to me to be introductory bits leading into the
chorus.  Can anyone make out what they are?

Jim
