Fairlight

[edit]

There's some debate as to whether this song, or Kate Bush's "Babooshka", was the first pop single to feature the Fairlight CMI, and by extension the first pop single to have digital sampling on it. The Top of the Pops performance has a Fairlight as a stage prop, and the bowing noises at the beginning are almost certainly samples, but I can't find any definitive sources to say that there's a Fairlight on the record. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 19:29, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
