My research is not extensive but the use of Ya by Eddie Vedder in Alive is top notch. He uses it quite a bit but it doesn't feel like it and flows with the music well.

Thoughts?

Thought of another in the Grunge realm.

 

UT Czech beat me to it. That is the definitive single, stand alone "yeah" in rock n roll history. 

 

Karen O probably deserves an honorable mention. Under the techincal requirements here, her band's "use" of the word is pretty dedicated.

 

By my count Otis Redding says "yeah" 21 times in Try a Little Tenderness, and the emotion/meaning behind it changes throughout the song.

 

The chorus in American Girl, which is among the most sing-a-long-able in music history in my book, starts off with an assertive "Oh yeah."

 

Also, this, in case you forgot how much James Hetfield can fucking deliver the goods:

Bro, I just realized you cited the preliminary "yeah." The monster occurs at 7:45.

I thought that sounded a little weak., and early.  Well, two for the price of one.

The "Yeah!" at the end of The Beastie Boy's "Girls."

 

Heard on the radio today . . . I love this album:

That album is incredible, should have won the Grammy, but that song is probably the worst thing that ever happened to her.

"She Loves You" is of course Beatles' iconic, but it doesn't hold a candle to this one they did:
 

(the studio recording of course has a few more of of Paul's "yeahs" but this video is so cool I chose it).

OK, I'm hardly the biggest Beatles fan in the world, but that's f'n awesome.

Question:  who is doubling Paul's vocals (starts ~ 1:35 with "the minute, you let her under your skin")?  Ringo isn't singing and John & George are doing harmony "ahs".  Post production doubling?  A singer off camera?  An effect?

OK, I looked it up -- they were lip synching with the exception of Paul's live vocals.  (Actually, I think it was probably pretty much all live until that 1:35 mark, with them cuing off studio monitors that weren't being picked up by the live microphones.  They must have had to really crank the volume once hundreds of people were singing along, and maybe mixed in the studio recording for the broadcast at the point Paul's vocal is clearly doubled.)

Sorry about the tangent, I get really intrigued with this stuff.

Edited by jimmyjazz

Correct.  They did the same thing for the Revolution video (filmed the same day), live vocals over studio track.  Similarly, for All You Need is Love (performed live for a world wide satellite broadcast), they sang live to again a pre-recorded backing track (the performance was also being recorded by George Martin), but then John went back and re-recorded his lead vocal.  So the released version = pre-recorded backing track+live broadcast "background" vocals (the crowd, the She Loves You and Yesterday shout outs...)+re-recorded lead vocal.

No clue why the first song I thought of was Weightless by Old 97's, but there you go.

Do you know that song was originally titled "She Loves You, Man"?

If you play it backwards, you can hear John Lennon say "Hey Paul, let's get rid of Clarence and steal all his good ideas".

Egregious, unacceptable lack of DLR up in here.

 

 

I'll submit a vote for Juvenile's 1999 smash hit "Back That Azz Up"

Can't forget the yeeeeeaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh by Sam Clayton on backup vocals after the "he's the man to meet" line in the last verse of Rock and Roll Doctor.

I fucking love Little Feat.  If you haven't seen it, there is a good documentary on Lowell George at prime video.  https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B078TNR4J9

I'll call and raise you:

 

 

Gotta love name-dropping your band into a song (seriously underrated album by the way...)

 

Not my fave but it fits the topic:

This is the correct answer.

“Every song is about drugs. Hey Jude, hey heroin.” (Obscure SNL reference)

Beatles acolytes Adrian Belew and Rob Fetters, with Bob Nyswonger on bass and Chris Arduser on drums. Cincinnati's finest. (With all due respect to the Isley Brothers.)

"No, no, no, no, no, no, yeah."

 

I’m not aware of an official video but it’s probably crap in comparison to the original scene it was used in so I’ll use that. I submit Oh Yeah

 

 

 

Honorable mention to the end credits
