Line 24:
* [[DMX]] makes frequent use of growls, barking, "uh!", and "come on!" in his songs.
* [[Eminem]] also makes a habit of this trope, albeit it's usually the "Bow Wow Wow" thing.
* [[Beyonce|Beyoncé]] trills her notes. A ''lot''. You can sometimes pick her songs out of a crowd just on the basis of this Lyrical Tic.
* [[Little Richard]] loves his "Whooooooh!"s and "Ah Hoooooooo!"s.
* The early [[The Beatles]] were fond of "Whoo!", in imitation of Little Richard.
* [[Aimee Mann]] is fond of tossing the word "baby" into her songs at random.
* [[Led Zeppelin]]'s Robert Plant had his easily recognizable array of wails and high-pitched screams, along with his randomly inserted "Oh baby"'s.
* [[Metallica|James Hetfield]] is well known for ending phrases with "-AH!" "All Nightmare Long" has this hilarious line at the end of the chorus: "But your [[ThisPunctuated! IsFor! SpartaEmphasis!|luck! runs! out-AH!"]] He's also well known for "Yeaah-aaah!" and the occasional "Go!" as a new riff or portion of a song kicks in.
* Japan's ridiculous debut album Adolescent Sex has David Sylvian saying "whoa babe" and "dancing" a lot.
* [[Regina Spektor]] goes "tsk-tsk" to the beat of the music a lot. It's often accompanied by snapping.
