I did wonder once, until I found out they are not lyrics so much as using the voice as an instrument and therefore it always seemed to me rather pointless to transcribe what are just sounds.<BR><BR>From The Blade Runner FAQ:<BR>What was the language used in the piece "Tales of The Future"?<BR><BR>Reportedly, it's not in any actual existing language; rather, singer Demis Roussos used sounds that, uhm, sound vaguely Middle-Eastern.<BR><BR>However, here and there actual Arabic words may have slipped in.<BR>
