Songs with the 'Be My Baby' drum intro

Also, "No Dancing" by Elvis Costello

along with "Cut Dead" and "Something's Wrong" too!

The Beatles, "What You're Doing" (Not exactly, but Ringo supposedly had "BMB" in mind when he played it.)

this is creepy, as i just bought a record with this track yesterday

"I Wish It Could Be 1965 Again" by the Barracudas pulls it off marvelously.

Hall and Oates - "The Last Time"

The Flatmates "Happy All the Time" (iirc)

"What's A Girl To Do" by Bat For Lashes.

A bunch of Outrageous Cherry songs, I think

Alan Parsons Project: "Don't Answer Me".

Also, Norwegian popsters Popium and Sissy Wish have both used it a lot.

Devil Dogs - Get Down on Your Knees
Jay Reatard - An Ugly Death

The Whore Moans - Rise and Shine (also ends with people singing "Be My Baby")

love to get a copy of the mixtape

Deerhunter: "Vox Humana"

After reading Tom's piece today I thought I'd post a few more many of which use the beat somewhere other than the intro but there we go.

A couple of years ago there was a decent list on Wikipedia but clearly a section on Whigfield's version is more encyclopaedic!

Television Personalties - 'This Angry Silence'
Ravonettes - 'Little Animal'
Au Revoir Simone - 'A Violent Yet Flammable World'
Horrors - 'Who Can Say'
Editors - 'Weight of the World'
Gene - 'Fitting Fit'
Ian Brown - 'Destiny or Circumstance'
Shins - 'Turn On Me'
Gliss -'Morning Light'
Alessi's Ark - 'Memory Box'
Kings of Leon - 'The Bucket'
The Gaslight Anthem - 'Great Expectations'
Concrete Blonde - 'Joey'
The Explorers Club - 'Forever'

Add Still Corners' rather lovely 'Endless Summer' to the pile.

The Cars, "All Mixed Up", very clearly around 1:45 but also other places

(xp) I probably shouldn't admit this on ILM but I genuinely had no idea the Red House Painters version was a cover.

“If you listen closely,” Blaine says, “I played the same beat on ‘Strangers in the Night’ that I played on ‘Be My Baby,’ just slower and softer.”

The Cure "Kyoto Song"

Not sure what's already been said, but I've got a few:

"Night" and "Glory Days"Bruce Springsteen
"I'd Much Rather Be With the Boys" Rolling Stones
"Is There Something I Should Know" Duran Duran
"Heat of the Moment" Asia

In addition to "Just Like Honey", "Cut Dead" and "Sowing Seeds" J&M Chain

"Every Time the Sun Comes Up" Sharon Van Etten
"Tammy Faye" Young People

Lansing-Dreiden do this on the first track of their first album, but it's a total fake-out and works perfectly

One of my favorite songs of 2015, "Secrets" by Le Pie.

The Ohio Express "Chewy Chewy" has a nearly perfect "Be My Baby" break including the bass riff just the final chorus (1:23 in the above video)

opening track of the new Suede album does this, admittedly after a minute and a half of orchestral largesse

track 3 of the new mitski album does this, presumably through gritted teeth

afghan whigs, "algiers"

Lisa Prank - Turn It Up

Erich Bachmann - Mercy

Ok I made a short video to show how absolutely weird the @spotify song recommendation engine is. I thought I was going crazy. pic.twitter.com/0OwGvZOQIz
