@andykhouri I first heard rumors that it was a Kraftwerk sample in the late 90s (which I could believe since I sampled the choir from "The Beach" for an electronic music class and it was very easy to do). I think it was only confirmed by the band last month. http://www.guardian.co.uk/culture/2013/feb/11/how-we-made-blue-monday
