Now when it comes to pop songs, there are several things that catch my attention. These are:

*use of trumpets and/or tamberine
*Hand claps/finger snamps
*A “Do do do do do” or a “Ba da ba ba ba ba ba” singing chorus line

I’m not sure where I found this link (possibly Vik?) but you should check out the latest podcast put out by Not Quite Rocket Science. They have dedicated their latest podcast entirely to pa pa pas (or equivalent two letter combinations).
