This trope is pretty straightforward: A band or singer stands on top of an unusual or unconventional location as a stage to perform their song. This could be anything from a floating platform out in space, a cloud, or even a a giant creature or person (the latter usually being an attractive woman). Since VFX and other forms of movie magic can bring to life such locations with ease, this is largely a music video trope. Though it's not unheard of to have this trope pop up from time to time in concerts. Why this is done could be for any number of reasons. The most obvious is because it makes the performance more visually interesting than it would be on a run of the mill concert stage. Another could be because it relates to the overall theme or motif of the music video. And for instances where the band is playing on something resembling female anatomy, (or just on a female herself) it can provide plenty of eye candy for the audience. One common variant is to have a tiny version of the band playing atop of an everyday object. In order to qualify for this trope: The stage has to be over the top, a place most people would not (or physically could not) normally stand on to perform. The inside of a building wouldn't count, (even if it would be an unusual venue choice). But on top of a speeding fighter jet, volcano caldera, or giant shoe would. For live performances, the overall stage could be simply shaped like something unusual to count. As long as the thing is under and/or completely surrounds the musician(s) it can qualify. |

Standard operating procedure for Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA. Some examples from the mirai series are a cake, a platform on top of a locomotive, and a football field. | |

At one point in the video for Your Favorite Martian's song "Booty Store", the band performs on a giant, scantily clad redhead. For obvious reasons, they are playing on her butt. | |

Ironheade's stage in Brütal Legend is shaped like Ormagaden, the gigantic Fire Beast whose death gave birth to the Age of Metal. Having weaponized The Power of Rock, each faction/band's stage also serves as their home base in battles (of the bands). | |
