* Fade-outs, widely used in the record industry. They make kind of "and they played happily ever after" effect.
** Ironically averted (or this that subverted?) by the end of [[Judas Priest]]'s 1979 song "Rock Forever," which just stops dead after a final heavy riff. [[
* Anybody paying attention to the lyrics of the Everly Brothers' song Wake Up Little Susie might have a [[Fridge Horror]] reaction upon realizing that by song's end, [[Please Wake Up|Susie still has not woken up, and no indication is given that she will.]]
** Explored by their former bandleader [[Warren Zevon]] in his song "Excitable Boy", wherein it is revealed [[Kill the Cutie|exactly]] [[Grave Robbing|what]] [[Stripped to the Bone|happened]] to Little Susie.
Line 134:
* Subverted by [[The Beatles|"I Want You (She's So Heavy)."]] It seems like the coda is going to go on forever and fade out, but instead it gets cut off abruptly mid-phrase.
* Also subverted in [[Blue Oyster Cult]]'s "Flaming Telepaths" (1974) which appears to be wrapping up with excessive repetitions of "And the joke's on you!" while the guitars get louder and louder, seemingly either building toward ''some'' kind of climax or just getting infinitely more dramatic. But then, after a final "And the joke-", the song just comes to a screeching halt - which is [[Fridge Brilliance]], because [[Self-Demonstrating Article|that was the joke]].
