I spend a lot of time at junk stores and garage sales looking for things to make odd noises with to add in my music. So I was in the drug store the other day and I walked down the toy aisle just to see if they had anything interesting to make sounds with. I didnt see much but I did find this toy cell phone...this little cell phone would say the numbers you pressed on the key pad...it is a childs voice and its EXACTLY like the counting in Gyroscope...Its not even a question of sounding close or similiar...it sounds so much like it that i am almost convienced that's where it came from...it gave me chills because it was very erie hearing those numbers outside of the chaos that surrounds that song...i am stopping off after work to pick it up. when i do i will load the mp3's on you send it so you can hear for yourself...a very odd moment indeed...

Im pretty sure the girl counting is from the "Conet Project" which are recordings of secret messages from numbers stations
"Shortwave radio used by the worlds intelligence agencies to transmit secret messages. These messages are transmitted by hundreds of “Numbers Stations”.
would love to hear the these cell phone clips though

that the sample is from the film Mercury Rising, about an autistic boy who is considered dangerous because of his ability to decipher a government code; he is protected by Bruce Willis' character while being pursued by a government agent. I'm told that the sample is probably from a tense scene in which the boy and Willis end up in a crowded lift with their pursuer, eyeing each other warily, while the boy reads out the floor numbers in an emotionally detached way
