Yes! I see what you did there. Elton's "Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word" was also on that soundtrack. Way back in 1977. Damn I'm fuckin old.
The Beatles...some of their offset intro stuff. Plus, Tangerine Dream did something like this back when they started out. I think Floyd had a single or a dustbin album where they tried something similar. Ulver went this direction when they gave up on Death Metal.This Heat - "Paper Hats".
