[net.music] Is this really part of the lyrics...???

Near the beginning of the instrumental portion of the Beach Boys hit
'Wendy', if one listens carefully, a cough followed by either laughter
or a comment may be heard in the background.  Out of curiousity, has
anyone heard other music having unintended features such as this?

On the CD version of Welcome to the Machine a distinct cough can be heard
during one of the quiet portions. I have not noticed this on the analog
version but it may indeed be there. 

Voting for CD's in the near future,

	Just now two examples come to mind:

	1.- All over "Let it be" by The Beatles you can hear people
	    talking and joking, including the Fab Four themselves.

	2.- In at least two tracks of Jethro Tull's "Heavy Horses"
	    you can hear coughing, and it is done so effectively
	    that I think they should've put in the credits something
	    like: "... Mr. so and so : coughing as a percussion effect"

	I'm quite sure there are more examples.

	Happy listening you all,
