They're used well in Johnny Cash's God's Gonna Cut you Down

Sounds to me like someone's being followed around town by the new Linken Park song.

That horrible pop song and the awesome track, Off the Grid, from the Beastie Boys new instrumental album both came to my mind originally when I read this thread. There's the polar opposites with hand-clapping.

I was all ready to vote never and then I remembered Citizens of Tomorrow by Tokyo Police Club. I clap along to that goodness like I was a cymbal clanking wind up monkey in a Stephen King novella.

Also, I second Ripoll on the Close to Me gay wagon.

I have to admit playing along with the handclaps in "Take the Money and Run" and "My Best Friend's Girl". I enjoy it, but I have to admit it's a bit silly.
