Who is the female vocalist on Everywhere?

I recently bought the Rainbow Children album (it was going cheap on Amazon) Its great! Who'd a thunk it?

Any hooo Does anyone know who the female vocalist is on the track Everywhere..

Also bought News (for £3.50 Plus postage to UK lol) and I would GLADLY have paid full price if I could find it new, its great Yoga workout music... thumbs up!
One minute they want peace……

I think Femi is a male sound engineer who has done background chants and shouts.
Just somewhere in the middle,

Oh ok
Couldn't tell
I tried looking up the name, and I did see it connected to an engineer but nothing else to find on the singer

So if anyone else knows something, please jump in.
