I first heard it yonks ago in an advert for some holiday company - I don't know which version it was, female singer but not This Mortal Coil as the vocals were 'straight' rather than the lovely way Lis Frazer sings on their version.

Have a gander at Tim Buckley - Dolphins - Whistle Test on Youtube.
It'll have you in tears.

Dolphins is gorgeous - I also have a version by Terry Callier and Beth Orton which is pretty tasty.

Cheers for that Richard, but I've loved the Buckley version for 30 odd years now, and i guess that you always attach yourself to the version that you hear first, and not necessarily to the original. Beautiful song anyway.
