Have you tried using the point-to-point next-hop (as it would appear in a traceroute) rather than loopbacks for each hop?

ip explicit-path name FOO
  next-address (P2P hop 1)
  ...
  next-address (P2P hop N)
  next-address (loopback, Tunnel Destination)

You'll still need mpls and traffic-eng tunnels configured on each interface of the label path.  You can verify with show mpls interfaces.  And then there's the IGP.
