Sophie B. Hawkins - "As I Lay Me Down"

Sometimes the most memorable part of a song has nothing to do with its title.  Case in point: "As I Lay Me Down" by Sophie B. Hawkins (not to be confused with Sophie C. Hawkins).  The 1995 ballad featured the background vocals "ooh la kah koh" that were repeated throughout the song.  Some friends of mine thought she was actually saying: "bring me a taco", but they also thought "Tiny Dancer" featured the lyrics "hold me closer Tony Danza".
