Sometimes, a character wants to play some music. Maybe it's for an event, maybe they want to set a particular mood, or maybe they just think it would be appropriate for the situation. But something happens and they end up playing a song or piece they didn't intend to, usually one completely unfitting for what's happening. The result, more often than not, is in-universe Soundtrack Dissonance. One common variant is for the wrong song to be played as a result of another character's actions, either as a mistake, to make a statement, or just because they like the other song better. Another involves a character playing a fitting song, only for it to be changed to something less apropos for whatever reason. May overlap with Left the Background Music On.

The Play That Goes Wrong: At the beginning of the play, the cast asks audience members to let them know if they find a missing Duran Duran CD. Later, a song by Duran Duran begins to play instead of a dramatic musical spike. | |

Megamind: After destroying Metro Man, Megamind triumphantly approaches city hall with "Highway to Hell" by AC/DC playing on the boombox Minion is carrying. When Megamind signals for the song to end, Minion ends up struggling with the controls, hilariously causing the boombox to switch between AC/DC and "Lovin' You" by Minnie Riperton- notably, every time he does so occurs just as the song is about to say "Hell". | |

Less Than Perfect: In the episode "Claude the Terminator", Owen reveals that he has a romantic fantasy about running into Lydia at the bar jukebox, providing a quarter and suggesting "Can't Fight This Feeling", asking her to dance... Later it looks like the scenario is actually happening, only for him to mishear her and select J5 instead of A5. Cue the jukebox blasting "Feliz Navidad". | |

In House, Vogler interrupts House playing air synth and drums to "Baba O'Riley" by The Who. After House tells Vogler that any attempt to fire him will be in vain, he tries to resume the song, only to accidentally play the traditional Jewish song "Hava Nagila". "That wasn't nearly as dramatic as I was hoping". | |

Cheers: After Robin went to prison, Sam started mocking Rebecca by playing "I Fought the Law and the Law Won" on the jukebox. Rebecca decided to respond by playing "Stand by Your Man", only to find that Sam had switched it with "I Fought the Law and the Law Won". One Halloween Episode saw Phil go over to the jukebox and put in some money. Appropriately for the holiday, "Monster Mash" starts playing. Except Phil selected "Funky Town". It turns out that Gary sabotaged the jukebox as a prank. |

The Simpsons: The page quote comes from "I Love Lisa", which takes place between Valentine's Day and President's Day. KBBL DJ Marty strangely decides to play Bobby Pickett's "Monster Mash", which is associated with Halloween, on both Valentine's Day and President's Day. Bill embarrasses Marty by pointing out that he'd played the wrong record. In "Marge On The Lam", Ruth places a cassette of Guns N' Roses' "Welcome to the Jungle" in her car stereo in an attempt to show that she's a rebel. It ends up playing Lesley Gore's "Sunshine, Lollipops and Rainbows" instead for a few seconds before it switches to the proper tape. Wiggum later makes the same mistake whilst he's trying to play "chase sequence" music on his patrol car. He's not too bothered by it however and sings along with Homer. In "Bart Sells His Soul", Bart passes out Iron Butterfly's 1968 rock song "In A Gadda Da Vida" in church as a hymn entitled "In the Garden of Eden", with composer credit given to "I. Ron Butterfly." The elderly church organist does a commendable rendition of the full 17-minute song before collapsing from overwork. In "Mother Simpson", Mr. Burns tries to play "Ride of the Valkyries" as the authorities raid the Simpson house. However, it quickly cuts to "Waterloo" by ABBA due to Smithers recording over part of the tape. |

In the Chilly Willy cartoon "The Legend of Rockabye Point," a fish-stealing polar bear has to lull a watchdog to sleep singing "Rock-a-Bye Baby." In one scene the dog is awakened after Chilly puts a clarinet in his mouth, so the bear grabs some sheet music for "Rock-a-Bye Baby" and plays it on the clarinet. It seems to work until Chilly replaces the sheet music with that of circus music. | |

Both Micki & Maude are in third stage labor with Rob Salinger's babies in the same delivery room. Already mortified that Rob has been two-timing them, Rob tries to calm the women with some Lamaze relaxation music. The tune that plays, however, is Paul Anka's 1974 tune "(You're) Having My Baby." This does not make things better; quite the opposite. | |

In the 'Allo 'Allo! episode "Communists in the Cupboard", René and Yvette conspire to prevent Edith from driving customers away from the café with her terrible singing by having her mime along to a recording of Jeanette MacDonald singing "Love is Where You Find It".note Anachronistically so, as the song wasn't written until 1948. When they are ready to perform, Leclerc gets the records mixed up, forcing Edith to mime along to Paul Robeson (whose voice was notoriously deep) singing "Old Man River" instead. The café patrons still find the results an improvement over her usual standards. | |

The Fairly OddParents!: In "Fairy Idol", when Jorgen Von Strangle is preparing to take away everything Timmy has ever wished for due to his fairy godparents quitting their job, he tells Binky to play more ominous music on a boombox, track seven specifically. Binky plays "Pop Goes the Weasel" instead, prompting Jorgen to yell "I SAID TRACK SEVEN!" This gag is repeated near the end of the special when Jorgen is about to once again take away Timmy's wishes and fairy godparent memories due to his new fairy godparent, Norm the Genie, quitting before setting everything back to normal. A different but also silly piece of music plays before Jorgen makes his entrance, causing him to once again demand that Binky play track seven. | |

SpongeBob SquarePants: Plankton's first appearance has a Running Gag where he pulls out a record player that plays an ominous musical sting to accompany his Evil Laugh. One time he does it, it plays a nursery song instead, causing him to stop laughing and hastily flip the record to the correct side before resuming. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: In "Equestria Games", Spike volunteers to sing the city anthem for the winners of the aerial relay race, because he assumes the Ponyville team won. Seconds before the song begins, he discovers it was actually the Cloudsdale team who won—and he's never even heard that anthem. Spike ends up awkwardly ad-libbing lyrics for the song, to an audience nearly as embarrassed as he is himself (except for Pinkie Pie who loves it). | |

Henry Danger: In "Brawl in the Hall" when Ray is about to provide a soundtrack for Charlotte's Training Montage for her fight against Bysh Bilsky, he at first turns on the music to his "love mix" before quickly changing to the "upbeat montage" music not long after. | |

One episode had Brian and Stewie with their own morning radio show. When attempting to play "wacky sound effects" after speaking to a female caller, Stewie accidentally puts on part of Joe Miller's summation speech from Philadelphia. When a horrified Brian calls him out on this, he earnestly says that he meant to tap a button to say "food fight" instead. | |

Heartbreakers: Max, who is pretending to be a Russian woman as part of an elaborate con, is asked to sing a Russian folk song while at a restaurant. As the music begins she does some obviously bad improvisation, to the confusion of the audience, and then saves herself by playing it off as a joke, and then launching into a cover of "Back in the USSR" instead. | |

The xkcd strip "Important Life Lesson" warns against leaving your music library running on shuffle while making love. While a couple is going at it in bed, one of their phones suddenly blares out "GO GO POWER RANGERS!" | |

South Park: When Stan wanted to win Wendy back, Bebe recommended that he stand outside her window, hold a boom box over his head, and play Peter Gabriel. Unfortunately, Bebe didn't specify which Peter Gabriel song to play, so instead of "In Your Eyes" he played "Shock the Monkey". It ends up being worse than he thought because Token Black was staying over that night. | |

Family Guy: One episode had Brian and Stewie with their own morning radio show. When attempting to play "wacky sound effects" after speaking to a female caller, Stewie accidentally puts on part of Joe Miller's summation speech from Philadelphia. When a horrified Brian calls him out on this, he earnestly says that he meant to tap a button to say "food fight" instead. In "From Russia With Love", the Griffins are watching TV and see an ASPCA commercial, but instead of Sarah McLachlan's "Angel", it's accompanied by Wang Chung's "Everybody Have Fun Tonight". |

Doug: In "Doug Throws a Party", Doug tries to have a party, but his parents arrange something more like a five-year-old's birthday party. Fortunately, Skeeter brought along the new Beets CD to liven things up. Unfortunately, his little brother has been into his CD's and so what actually plays is a kids' song. | |

Wander over Yonder: In "The Big Day," Lord Hater is about to zap Wander and Sylvia to their deaths when they suggest a little mood music. He presses a button on his MP3 player, which starts playing a sultry R&B song with him singing the lyrics "I hate to say that I love you..." He angrily presses skip and "Night on Bald Mountain" starts playing. | |

In the Kid Cosmic episode "Kid Cosmic And The Big Win", Kid attempts to create an addition to a fight sequence with a cool song on the diner's jukebox, only to accidentally choose "The Martian Hop" by The Ran-Dells, a cheesy novelty song. | |
