Line 185:
* The theme for ''[[Farscape]]'' has an alien version of this trope.
* In ''[[The Mighty Boosh]]'', music snob Howard mocks Vince for being confused and unsettled by the formless flow of jazz. He starts scatting, which causes Vince to panic and punch him.
* For what was believed to be one week only, the [[Theme Tune]] to the game show ''[[All -Star Blitz]]'' had some scatting mixed in. The results were… [http://www.gameshowthemesongs.net/sounds/All%20Star%20Blitz/ALLSTARBLITZ.mp3 surreal].

Line 214:
* A number of the playable songs in ''[[Magicians Quest Mysterious Times]]'' feature random vocals. "Cerulean" has a guy yelling "Yeaaah, behbeh!" at several points, and "Corusican Betrayal" has a wordless soprano wail in it, for example.
* ''[[Beyond Good & Evil (video game)|Beyond Good and Evil]]''
* Venus's song in ''[[EarthboundEarthBound]]''.
* The background music to the "Secret of..." levels in ''[[Super Mario Bros.|Super Mario Sunshine]]'' is "Do-do-do" sung to the tune of the classic Mario theme.
** The choir added into the [[Big Bad|Bowser]] battle themes from both ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' whenever Bowser takes damage.
Line 224:
* On ''[[Katamari Damacy]]'''s pre-game tutorial level, there's a version of the theme song that just has the "na na na na na na na" for vocals, on top of the backing beat from the NES version of ''[[Lode Runner]]''.
* ''[[Klonoa]] 2: Lunatea's Veil'' has a snowboarding level with a very catchy song. Sung by Klonoa. In Phantomilian. [http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/ps2/file/374317/20263 Check out the lyrics.]
* ''Awakening The Chaos'', [[SNK Boss|v-13's]] theme from [[Blaz BlueBlazBlue]], has lots of [[Ominous Latin Chanting|Ominous Wordless Chanting]].
* ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' has the eponymous dinosaurs singing in an incomprehensible chatter that would become the establishing voice of Yoshi forever on.
* Many songs in the [[Dawn of War|Dawn of War II]] soundtrack feature a choir singing made-up lyrics. Some (Angels of Death, Khaine's Wrath, For The Craftworld) are presumably supposed to represent the fictional languages of the 40K universe, while in others (The Green Horde Rises, The Great Devourer) it's most likely just for effect.
Line 248:
* In ''[[Warcraft]] 3'', some parts of the Frozen Throne Human and Night Elf songs do this.
* Most of the music in [[Nie R]] is sung in a made up language, stated to be a "possible future evolution of our current languages" by the composer. There's several versions of the ending theme depending on the ending and at least 1 of them is in English though.
* Eve's Asylum Int Music from [[Little Big PlanetLittleBigPlanet]] 2
* [[Team Fortress 2|YATATATA!]]
* [[Jet Set Radio|Hideki]] [[Sonic Rush Series|Naganuma's]] sampling tends to turn vocals into this. A good example is [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMMANIT5v-M "Ethno Circus"].
