Christmas Wrapping

This just came on the radio - I've never liked it much, though this time it sounded good - but it struck me that it's structure (verse-instrumental chorus-verse) is kind of unusual for a pop hit though it works fine. What other big hits* can you think of where the 'chorus' is wordless?

*not that Teh Waitresses were actually a big hit but its afterlife has elevated its status a bit

wordless chorus = Whistle 'Nothin' Serious (Jus Buggin)

unless 'BOH' counts as a word :)
