Octopusses Garden - The Beatles.
Ringo sings lead on this, and the other guys put in an excellent close harmony backing. Recorded as a fun song, but listen again and you will see that the backing vocals are top notch!

Good question. I've been having a think and the song which immediately springs to mind is The Rolling Stones' "Gimme Shelter". Merry Clayton's performance on this record is astonishing. She cut a version of the song herself but I've not been fortunate enough to hear it.

In my humble opinion:
Come Together, Primal Scream, soaring Gospel.
Edit: Love Steves choice of Gimme Shelter, maybe I just have a Gospel thang going on today.

Probably Queen's early stuff. They're not the best songs, but backing vocals-wise they're pretty good.
