Obviously the boys have processed the voice heavily to make it sound more like a girl's. All the samples from the Conet Project are on this excellent website BTW so you can play them at random over any BoC track you like:

I love these.. Swedish Rhapsody is one of the most unnerving things you'll ever hear, i find it genuinely sinister and scary... I listened to this late at night once and had an awful dream of being trapped in some kind of derilict office building with that little girls voice and the music box melody playing over and over.. brrr. :shock:

Just about the chime in about that myself, though it may be very well be that mucephai discovered the same station they recorded.

No, I didn't find that one on the radio myself, though I did recognise the voice used from listening to Conet despite the signal processing.

When you knew that what I'd need was willingness and comfort there
