* Music/PinkFloyd's RockOpera ''Music/TheWall'', while a very dark album already, manages to become even darker in the middle of two different song:
** "One of my Turns" starts with Pink singing to a woman he's taken to his hotel room about how he feels one of his turns coming on. About halfway through, seemingly coinciding with Pink having a psychotic break, the song takes an extremely dark turn with heavier, faster instrumentation and the lyrics practically being yelled out, terrifying the woman and causing her to flee. In the film, he also starts wrecking his hotel room and screaming out the window.
** "Hey You" manages to do this twice. It starts as a quiet call for help, stemming from Pink's realization that cutting himself off from the world was a mistake. The first step into darkness is when the singing shifts from Pink to the narrator who paints a very dark picture of Pink's predicament, then the second step comes from Pink becoming increasingly desperate for a human connection, starts yelling for someone to help him.
