What's your favorite music trope?
Can be from any genre. Mine is when an acoustic guitar comes in towards the end of a song and totally changes or reframes the mood/energy (see "Money" by Widowspeak)

I love songs that completely change genre partway through. Can be slow acoustic songs that switch to fast techno; loud, bangy songs that turn calm and soft; rap songs with calm, piano-based choruses; whatever.
Examples would be:
Don't forget Bohemian Rhapsody, the all-time king of this niche.
Stairway?
Yeah, Stairway is another great example.
Aqualung does it well, too.
God yes, using changing genres to tell a story in your music is such a power move
Here is a song I think you are going to LOVE: Set to Stun - Walk Tall II
You're right, I do love it!
Glad to hear it!! They are starting to talk about putting a new album out soon, too!

Scaretale by Nightwish and Little Piece of Heaven by Avenged Sevenfold are both all over the place in terms of genre.
Little Piece Of Heaven is the Bohemian Rhapsody of metal, I love it.

Stone Cold Metal by Ensiferum does that as well
This, but primarily more along proggy lines.
On that subject, Sleep Token - The Summoning has a fun progression https://youtu.be/wJNbtYdr-Hg
