Yes, KaTe is singing "jeux sans frontieres" (that's "Games Without Frontiers"
in French) throughout.  She's credited for the whole album, I believe,
but I don't recall any other instances of her voice.

First album:  Blue car on cover, Atco Records, 1977.
Second album:  Hands with streaks on cover, Atlantic Records, 1978.
Third album:  Melting face on cover ("You're only as young as you feel"),
	Geffen Records, 1980.
Fourth album (called "Security" in U.S.):  Bizarre-O face on cover, Geffen
	Records, 1982.

KaTe is only on number Three, I think.  (Brief plug...if you don't already
know, she's also on backing vox on Big Country's song "The Seer" from the 
(IMHO excellent) album of the same title.  Not a great vocal part, mostly
"yeh-yeh-yeah", but there you have it)

You're welcome.
