* Used for dramatic effect in ''[[Apollo 13]]''. At the beginning of the mission, the music was full speed, everyone was happy, and all was right with the world. By the time the tape recorder was running out of battery power, the astronauts were in serious trouble.
* Another dramatic use is in ''<nowiki>[[2001: A Space Odyssey]]</nowiki>'' when HAL 9000 sings "Daisy Bell" (better known as the "Daisy, Daisy" song, or "A Bicycle Built For Two"). It is an indicator that HAL's mind is going. He can feel it.
* ''[[Monty Python and the Holy Grail]]'': Happens a few times to the music when the opening credits are interrupted, and also whenever Prince Herbert wants to sing, the music swells, and his dad cries "Stop that! No singing!"
* Happens in [[Not Another Teen Movie]] every time a dramatic moment [[Bread, Eggs, Milk, Squick|is made awkward]].
