I think I remember one.
Isn't there a bilingual duet in some recent Akshay Kumar
film that has the following words? (or something similar)
yak-ba-yak teraa.a.a.a saamane aanaa.a.a
yak-ba-yak teraa.a.a.a dil ko dha.Dakaanaa.a.a
yak-ba-yak muskuraanaa
yak-ba-yak nazare.n milaanaa
yak-ba-yak nazare.n churaanaa
... something something ...
yaa habiibii fiinak, yaa habiibii fiinak ... (?)
I've seen the song and the film, but I'm d*mned if I can
remember its name right now (I'm not sure this isn't act-
ually a good thing :P). This Arabic+Hindi song is shot
in a dance club/discotheque-type place with Akshay Kumar
dancing with a stocky middle Eastern-looking dude and a
number of ostensibly voluptuous women gyrating on stage.
[BTW, this song definitely qualifies for Sudhir's middle
Eastern music-inspired songs]

Why do you say it sounds like dummy words? I don't think
they're dummy in either the QKQ song, or this one I mention.
yakaayak and yak-ba-yak both literally mean 'one by one'
(yak = one), but they're also often used in the sense of
'suddenly' as in these songs.
