    "Sha la la la la la la" sounds like Mr Jones by Counting Crows.
    From the amazing album 'August And Everything After'

    Lyrics
    I was down at the New Amsterdam staring at this yellow-haired girl
    Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation with this black-haired flamenco dancer
    Well, you know, she dances while his father plays guitar
    She's suddenly beautiful
    We all want something beautiful
    Man, I wish I was beautiful
    So come dance the silence down through the morning, sha la la la la la la la la
    Cut up Maria! Show me some of them Spanish dances
    Pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones
    Believe in me, help me believe in anything
    'cos I want to be someone who believes

    Mr. Jones and me tell each other fairy tales
    Yeah, we stare at the beautiful women
    "She's looking at you. Ah, no, no, she's looking at me."
    Smiling in the bright lights coming through in stereo
    When everybody loves you, you can never be lonely
    Well, I'm gonna paint my picture
    Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray
    All of the beautiful colors are very very meaningful
    Well you know grey is my favorite color
    I felt so symbolic yesterday
    If I knew Picasso I would buy myself a gray guitar and play

    Mr. Jones and me look into the future
    Yeah we stare at the beautiful women
    "She's looking at you. uh, I don't think so. She's looking at me."
    Standing in the spotlight, I bought myself a gray guitar
    When everybody loves me, I will never be lonely

    I want to be a lion, everybody wants to pass as cats
    We all want to be big big stars, but we got different reasons for that
    Believe in me because I don't believe in anything
    and I want to be someone to believe

    Mr. Jones and me stumbling through the barrio
    Yeah we stare at the beautiful women
    "She's perfect for you, Man, there's got to be somebody for me."
    I want to be Bob Dylan
    Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
    When everybody loves you, oh son, that's just about as funky as you can be

    Mr. Jones and me staring at the video
    When I look at the television, I want to see me staring right back at me
    We all want to be big stars, but we don't know why and we don't know how
    But when everybody loves me, I'm going to be just about as happy as can be
    Mr. Jones and me, we're gonna be big stars...

    Just another random idea for this ... Lights out - Peter Wolf
    Also try U2 - Love Rescue Me I have no hope that it's any of them, but it won't hurt if you try them.
