My favorite part of this song is when Billiam drops the n-word with the hard A. Poor Sgt. O'Leary and his broken back 😭

Now you will hear it too 😀

First one to come to mind:

"Aw here she comes
Just-a walk - just a walkin' down the street
Singin' dow diddy do do wop a do do wop a do do"

- Joe Jackson, "Pretty Girls"

Peter Gabriel's "Modern Love" has "DOO DOO, DOO DOO-DOO DAT, YEHH!", as well as an exceptional "UNGH."

This is maybe on another level and shouldn't count, but there's a lot of good stuff in this set:

I know people who hate "Werewolves of London", mainly because of the "owww-whooooo".

Pink Floyd's "Atom Heart Mother" turned up on random shuffle during my afternoon commute home, and I immediately thought of this thread. The "Funky Dung" movement in this song has some scat singing / chant / item / thing / etc. performed by the choir that's pretty fun.

Also, makes the commute go by faster when a 23-minute song comes on.

Uhh, I'll work on the transcription later.
