<sigh> Yes, but you're not *supposed* to Google.  If you were allowed to 
Google, anybody could answer the question in three seconds flat.

The guest vocalist was Elizabeth Frasier, former singer from Cocteau Twins.

The first track, lyrics given in an earlier post, is "Disolved Girl".  
When 'Neo' was sort of sitting at the computer, listening to music on 
head-phones, early on in The Matrix (just before the appearance of the 
girl with the white-rabbit tattoo), the song he is listening to is 
"Disolved Girl" from Massive Attack's "Mezzanine" album.  The second lyric 
quoted in the latest post, was from the track "Teardrop" from that same 
album.
