It's a high five. Get used to it.
Hey, let's hand clap. *high fives*
2๐ 3๐
O clap your hands together all ye people
O sing unto God with the voice of melody
For the lord it high
And to be feared
He is the great king
Upon all the earth
He shall subdue the people under us
And the nations under our feet
He shall choose out an heritage for us
Even the worship of Jacob whom he loved
God is gone up with a merry noise
With a merry noise
With a merry noise
And the lord with the sound of the trump
Oh sing praises, sing praises unto our God
Oh sing praises, sing praises unto our King
For God is the king upon all the earth
Sing ye praises with understanding
O clap your hands all ye people
O clap your hands
Clap your hands
Clap your hands
Clap your hands
Clap your hands together all ye people
Clap your hands together all ye people
Clap your hands
All ye people
Theses lyrics to o clap your hands are sang in SSATB

The sound the hand makes as it slaps the folds of the labia and whacks the clitoris.
Man, I was so horny last night, I resorted to the one hand clap!

A reference to a zen koan, worn threadbare and meaningless by endless repetition in the media. It has no 'answer' unless, as in definition (1) above, the answerer redefines the term 'clapping', thus entirely missing the point.
Teacher: "What is the sound of one hand clapping?"
Student: "Um, the snapping of fingers?"
Teacher: (whacks student with computer keyboard)

The sound of one hand clapping is the sound of one hand closing quickly.
The sound of one hand clapping is supposed to be a question with no answer. It is a clasic Zen koan given to students to aid in enlightenment by leading the mind into a cul-de-sac with no way out but enlightenment. How enlightened could the person who came up with this koan be, considering it has such an obvious and simple answer?

Fundamental lore of Zen Buddhism; know as the Kลan traditional. In the west formally termed onanism or colloquially: โthrottling the purple headed yogurt slingerโ. This is the sound of skin slamming skin as โmediationโ reaches the point of enlightenment.
โEkaku what are you doing in the bathroomโ
โNothingโ
โIf youโre doing nothing, why can half the building hear the sound of one hand clapping? I swear if youโve ruined another one of my Grattan catalogues with your man milk I promise you this is the last time Madame palmer's five daughters are coming 'round to play.โ

An indie band from Philadelphia and Brooklyn who achieved their fame through the internet rather than through record labels. Their self-titled album has received much critical acclaim, including a score of 90 from Pitchfork Media. With all the attention they have turned down many record deals, though signing to an independent label in the UK. No one can doubt the chemistry the band has from their clangy guitars to thumping drums, but lead vocalist Alec Ounsworth's singing style often either makes you love or hate the band. While many think his singing style is original and goes with the fun loving style of the band(including myself), many hear it as a crackity turn off.
Guy: You ever heard of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah?
Other guy: You crazy hipsters and your "indie music".
