The musical number in an animated musical in which the animation stops pretending to depict things that are actually happening in the world of the movie and becomes a more abstract illustration of the music. The Disney [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made on Drugs?|Acid]] Sequence is not as common as it first seems - they only belong here if they are not explainable - usually a whacked-out moment of impossible lighting and choreography with crazy lighting, sometimes caused by hallucinations. If it is caused by a dream, see [[Dream Ballet]]. If it is caused by substance abuse, see [[Mushroom Samba]].
Line 116 ⟶ 115:
* In ''[[Beavis and Butthead]] Do America'', Beavis eats a peyote cactus while in the desert and experiences a surreal animated music video for White Zombie's "Ratfinks, Suicide Tanks and Cannibal Girls".
** Mike Judge didn't want to have this scene in the movie in the first place. MTV wanted a music video somewhere in the movie similar to the TV series, but Judge thought that would stop the plot dead and compromised with the hallucination sequence. It was still awesome though.
* A couple musical numbers from the [[Rankin/Bass Productions|Rankin-Bass]] TV specials of [[The Hobbit]] and [[The Lord of the Rings]] certainly qualify...
* Several musical numbers from ''[[The 5000 Fingers of Dr. T]]'' by [[Dr. Seuss]] (1953) but particularly the [[Busby Berkeley Number|Dungeon]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlxgZrT18ys Orchestra scene] and the "[[Real Men Wear Pink|Dress Me,]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8TQOzyCu8Q Dress Me" song]. During the dance number involving the rollerskating, siamese-bearded twins, the hero downs a swig of some "[[Lampshade Hanging|powerful stuff]]" beforehand.
* Templeton the Rat's song about the fair in the animated musical adaptation of ''[[Charlotte's Web]]'' was rather trippy.
