Laughing or giggling in songs
 
Can you name songs that have the singer laughing or giggling on them? I can think straight away of The Velvet Underground's 'Heroin' (more of a short sneering laughter than anything) or Christian Death's 'I Hate You'. Go.

There was a song by PTV, I think it was called 'White Nights' that featured Jim Jones' insane giggling on it.

I'm not a huge fan of the Damned, but the song "These Hands" is fucking brilliant.

These Hands

These are the hands of a demented circus clown

Outside I’m laughing but inside I’m really wearing a frown

I see you laughing at me

But baby in my dreams

Its quite a different scene



Chasing you through the night with my hands oh virginess

Funny how everything seems to make me colliette

I find I’m laughing at you

And if you are turning blue



Ha ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha ha ha

Ho ho hoStop laughing, Stop laughing!

I'm not entirely sure but the echoing noise on Neu!'s 'Lilac Angel' sounds like somebody's laughter put through some reverb and echo. Another one is The Smiths' 'Suffer Little Children', even though it's not Morrisey doing the laughing.

Little Bit of Riff by Easy Now. My bandmate made me laugh hard at the end and we left it in. Also Carousel by Mister Bungle

That'll be just after Thurston has thrown firecrackers into the recording booth where Lee is doing his vocal.

The start of "Over Over" from the latest Fall album starts with a particularly rancourous laugh. Also on the Peel version of New Puritan. That MES is a jolly fellow.
