Exit is an electronic music album released in 1981 by the German group Tangerine Dream.[2] The first track features an uncredited Berlin attress[3] chanting, in Russian, the names of the continents of the world and pleading to end the threat of "limited" nuclear war,[4][5] which was a potential danger facing the world during the late Cold War era in which the album was released. Exit reached No.43 in the UK, spending 5 weeks on the chart.
