* ''[[Blue Submarine Number Six]]'' does this. Repeat with me: ''naval battles punctuated with bossanova.''

* [[Spirited Away]] has this when Chihiro is making her way down the rickety stairs to the boiler room.
* ''[[Kimba the White Lion]]'' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5P9ic9GZoE&list=LL5A68Xz9vd9pNuUOTW6GeBw&index=54 has its moments].

* The absurdly famous "Knife" cue from [[Psycho]] is kind of a funny aversion, compounded with [[Beam Me Up, Scotty]]. If you watch the scene carefully, the music is NOT [[Mickey Mousing]]. However when people mimic the scene by making a stabbing motion and singing "Reent! Reent! Reent! Reent!" they will synchronize it.
* In ''[[The Great Dictator]]'' [[Charlie Chaplin]] shaves a customer in perfect synchronisation with the 5th Hungarian Dance [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCevzLGnrbo See here.]
** Impressively, he also did it in one take.
Line 153:
* Subverted/parodied twice in ''[[Family Guy]]''. In "The Story on Page One", Peter provides his own [[Mickey Mousing]] while sneaking around. In one of the segments in "Family Guy Viewer Request Episode #1", he asks a genie for his own personal soundtrack, and the music does this (being light and breezy when he's skipping, turning into a [[Sexophone]] when he and Lois are about to get intimate).
** Stewie also gets a job following fat guys around with a tuba, playing in time with their steps.
* Also parodied in ''[[The
* Done a lot in ''[[Ed, Edd n Eddy]]''. They played with this in one scene of the episode "Brother, Can You Spare An Ed?", where Edd provided [[Mickey Mousing]] on his pedal-steel guitar until Eddy told him to knock it off.
* The classic opening sequence for ''[[Batman the Animated Series]]'' was composed entirely of the serious version of this. Done so well that you don't realize that the jet engine of the Batmobile turning on is actually a cymbal roll.
Line 166:
* ''[[Ruby Gloom]]'' uses this up to a point, but it is particularly notable for the character Doom Kitty, whose every movement and action is punctuated by an appropriate violin chord. It's adorable.
* An episode of ''[[The Schnookums and Meat Funny Cartoon Show]]'' had the eponymous duo gaining super muscles, with their ever step being punctuated with an "AH" sound.
* Used all the time in ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'', mixed seamlessly with some [[Leitmotif|Leitmotifs]] and music reflecting the mood or tone of a moment or action instead of the physical action.
