When the scream makes the song

J

johnbasalla

What songs can you come up with where a scream or growl or something of that nature is an important part of the song, or part of the hook?

"I'm Not My Brother's Keeper" by The Flaming Ember is a notable one for me. The vocal starts with a "ohhhh (and screamed) No!" that goes into the refrain... "I'm Not My Brother's Keeper, though he be strong or weaker. The same thing occurs again near the end of the song. Before you judge me, why not try to love me". Every once in a while, the vocalist does an "uhh" or "aw". The recording would be weaker without all of this.
 
How about "Little Red Riding Hood" by Sam the Sham & the Pharaohs?

cd
 
Sock It to Me, Baby -- Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels
Into the Night -- Benny Mardones

Both have long, loud screams that dominate the fade-out.
 
B-52's - Rock Lobster

After "Here comes a bikini whale!" girl screams!
 
"I'm the Man", Anthrax - which sampled Sam Kinison's "OHHH-OHHHHH" scream

"Won't Get Fooled Again", The Who - the scream that follows Horatio Caine's donning his sunglasses on CSI: Miami

"Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap", AC/DC

"Renegade," Styx
 
Is it a scream, or a whisper, that is part of the intro to "Blowin' Away" by the 5th Dimension?

Are they actually saying something?
