    I spent a few years drumming and dancing at pow-wows. Most of the songs that I remember were composed of both words and what we called vocables, which were sounds interspersed amongst the words of a song. The same thing happens in most pop as well. Look at the Beatles’ song She Loves You – ‘She loves you, yeah yeah yeah’. The ‘yeah, yeah,yeah’ part has no real linguistic value, its a vocable. It creates a pleasing vocal rhythm.
