That'd be the one on three. It's unsetting because it sounds so much like something, but I don't know what. I'd be very surprised if that's a 'standard' percussive sound. To go on a tangent, there's a fine line between a common noise used as percussion and a percussion sound that can live on its own. Eg. the cup and the cowbell. Whereas a glass cup being hit reminds the presence of a cup, the cowbell is way into percussive instrument land and does not bring to mind pastures, cows or other farmyard concerns. > > It is not sung in English, isn't it ?
