* {{Music/Rush}}'s SelfTitled debut album was originally going to include a CoverVersion of [[Music/BuddyHolly "Not Fade Away"]] and an original song titled "You Can't Fight It" - both songs were the respective A and BSide of the band's debut single before the album, and were eventually cut in favor of more new songs. The"Not Fade Away" / "You Can't Fight It" single itself is something of a rarity and has never been reissued in any format.

* Being a series that mostly uses licensed music, the ''VideoGame/JustDance'' series has had several scrapped songs throughout its many entries, most likely due to last-minute rights issues. In most cases, remnants of the routines can be found buried in the game files through data mining, and images of several other unused dancers exist with their songs unknown. Other songs were delayed and released on a later game than originally intended. Known cut songs include, by game:

** ''Just Dance 3'': "Jungle Drum" by Emiliana Torrini, "Daddy Cool" by Music/BoneyM (routine used for a video contest, unplayable)
** ''Just Dance 4'': "So Good" by Music/BoBRapper, "Respect" by Music/ArethaFranklin
** ''Just Dance 2014'': "All I Want For Christmas Is You" by Music/MariahCarey, "Man Down" by Music/{{Rihanna}}, "Robot Rock" by Music/DaftPunk (overdubbed by an original song titled "Nitro Bot")

** ''Just Dance 2015'': "Dancing Queen" by Music/{{ABBA}}
** ''Just Dance 2017'': cover of "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polkadot Bikini" by Brian Hyland, 8-bit remix of "In the Hall of the Mountain King" by Edvard Grieg (named "8BitClassical" in files)

* The [[Platform/{{MOD}}/{{MOD}} S3M]] files for Future Crew's 1992 [[{{Demoscene}} demo]] ''Unreal''(not to be confused with the later ''VideoGame/{{Unreal}}'' FPS) contain several unused music cues, including an alternate version of the "Realplasma" music, and two {{industrial}}-sounding pieces. Skaven's part of the ''Second Reality'' soundtrack also has two unused segments.

* ''[[VideoGame/GoldenEye1997 GoldenEye]]'' on the Nintendo 64 has a DummiedOut BGM composed for the Jungle stage, which lacks music except for the battle with Xenia, and another that would have played in the cut [[https://youtu.be/J9N0EpdggCg?si=FpjZu28MgZ41XRyC Perimeter]] level. Also, like ''VideoGame/PerfectDark'' mentioned below, several levels have [[https://tcrf.net/GoldenEye_007_(Nintendo_64)#Unused_Music unused alert/action themes]] (due to only two music/ambience cues being allowed for each level), although a few of them can be heard in multiplayer.
