You can do this without overriding touchesBegan. Use gesture recognizers.

UILabel *label = ...;
label.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
UITapGestureRecognizer *recognizer = [[[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(tapAction)] autorelease];

[label addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];

- (void)tapAction {
  NSLog(@"tap performed");
}
