La-La (Means I Love You) by the Delfonics.

I know it best from Todd Rundgren's version on A Wizard, A True Star.

Tom's Diner (DNA version)

I played that to a friend once and he commented horrified "aagh they've ruined it"

I agreed; it was much better without the singing

I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.

Not sure I understand the question - are we actually talking about "best use of" or just "best song with la-la-las in it"?

Either way, I nominate David Watts by the Kinks (or the Jam, if you like).

It's a cracker. I was trying to remember which Kaiser Chiefs song it was that had that bit in it but couldn't put my finger on it. Slightly thrown off because the la-la-la bits are so different to the chorus.

I remember singing a rude version as a child, but singing tra-la-la etc when it got to the rude punch line

How about the Kim Deal part in "Little Trouble Girl ?"

Any excuse to mention Kim Deal. Bonus points for Kim Gordon  ;D
