* ''Film/{{Elf}}'' contains a sequence where the {{Love Interest|s}} leads a group of New Yorkers in "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"; this is slightly [[JustifiedTrope justified]] in that pretty much everyone ''does'' know the words to that song, and in that several people are fairly off-key.
* ''Film/{{Enchanted}}'' has "That's How You Know". Robert accepts that Giselle sings (he thinks she's a CloudCuckoolander), but is completely astonished when the effect proves contagious and an increasingly large number of Central Park street musicians and performers join in. Somehow, this scene manages to play the trope so straight it meets parody coming the other way.

* {{Opera}} is the genre that [[TropeCodifier codified]] this trope, and possibly even [[TropeMakers made it]] (we don't actually know for sure ''what'' Greek plays actually sounded like, and early opera composers acknowledged that). The interesting thing, though, is that all early operas (such as Monteverdi's ''Theatre/LOrfeo'') attempt to [[JustifiedTrope justify]] this, by having most of the music sound as speech-like as possible, or by having it sung by characters who possess supernatural powers.
