Line 22:
* The song "Come Back To Me" from ''[[On a Clear Day You Can See Forever]]''. Daisy is avoiding the psychiatrist so he tries to reach her telepathically. She begins hearing the words of the song coming from the mouths of her cooking class teacher, police officers, and other random strangers. (Does not happen in the stage show.)
* The second verse of "At The Opera Tonight" from ''[[Repo! The Genetic Opera]]'' is a duet between the Repo Man and Blind Mag. The distance between them is not simply physical: while Mag sings about how she's made peace with her fate, Repo Man is raging and planning a bloodbath.
* All of John and Abigail Adams' duets in ''[[1776]]''. Especially fitting as the duets are based off their letters to each other.
* Lalita and Darcy share a Distant Duet that was cut from the movie ''[[Bride and Prejudice]]'' but can be seen on the DVD.
* Two in ''[[The Muppets (film)|The Muppets]]'': Piggy (in her dressing room) and Mary (at a restaurant) in "Me Party", and then Gary (on the street) and Walter (in the Muppet Studios basement) for "Muppet or Man" (there's an [[Imagine Spot]] where they're together in the middle, but as far as the reality of the film is concerned, they're not).
Line 69:
* ''[[Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (theatre)|Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street]]'' has a distant trio, with Sweeney in his barbershop, Anthony searching for Johanna, and Johanna in an insane asylum.
* "Christmas Makes Me Cry" from [[Brooklyn]] has Faith in Paris, singing to young Brooklyn, and Taylor in New York, singing to...anyone who'll listen, and both of them thinking of each other.
* "What You Don't Know About Women" in ''[[City of Angels (musical)|City of Angels]]''. Gabby and Oolie are separated not only by a split stage, but by the latter being a fictional character in a [[Film Noir]] written by the former's husband.
* 'I Know Him So Well' from ''Chess'', although this one depends on the production: in some versions, the two singers are actually singing to each other.
* The finale reprise of ''For Good'' in [[Wicked (theatre)|Wicked]]
