Songs that actually, like, stop when the singer says 'stop.'

Scott walker, "cue (flugelman)"

b.o.b feat. bruno mars - nothin' on you

Gerry & The Holograms - "Gerry & The Holograms"

Cursive - "Sink to the Beat" (off the verrrry meta- Burst & Bloom EP)

Sentimental Fool, Roxy Music.

STOP.

Indiana - Solo Dancing

M.O. - For A Minute

Aqua - Be a Man

I was going to say Arthur Lee & Love, "Stop the Music" but that stops before he says, "Stop the music":

"I just might uhhhhhhh...
*music stops*
...stop the music
ooo-wee good gracious
mighty mighty n'all n'all...
... n'all...
... yeah"

uptown fuckin' funk

nicki minaj ft. beyoncé - feeling myself

lola rae, watch my ting go

j holiday "bed" :)

now stop *stop* and let me repay you for the week that you been through

J Dilla, "Stop!"

TSOL, "She'll Be Saying"

The Cellos' "Rang Tang Ding Dong (I Am the Japanese Sandman)" is real close; the singer doesn't actually say "stop," but everything does stop so he can complain that everybody else gets to sing all the good stuff while he's stuck with the chorus.

For some reason this thread got a bassline and little guitar jingle stuck in my head and I couldn't work out what it was. I first thought it might be by LFO (Summer Girls variety), then after ruling that out I was stumped. An hour or so later I realised it was Half Man Half Biscuit, with their song Took Problem Chimp To Ideal Home Show...but this song doesn't say 'stop' at all! It stops, then says 'go' as it restarts. For some reason I got the two muddled. Anyway, I bet there aren't so many examples of 'go'. That Boredoms one I guess...

can't believe "Don't Come Around Here No More" hasn't been mentioned

it has

just saw it, whoops

To my ears the music doesn't seem to stop after singing "stop" in that song

yeah it doesn't

James - Skullduggery does the 'and then the music stopped...." thing at the end.

I think google is spying on me. This was a recommended video on my feed:

Taylor Swift, “Dress” (the final time she says, “...everything just stops”).

Stan Freberg - "I've got you under my skin"
