A nice example of this ticket: the intro for Midnight Oil's "Truganini". Just a thunderous C chord played during 1 and a half bars, then a sudden stop. The following sequence, the main part of the song, is in E minor, which makes that intro sound very unusual. Turns out that the intro is like a "cut-up" of the chorus' ending, in which the C comes up again.
