* In ''[[Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire A Clash of Kings]]'', [[KnightInSourArmor Sandor Clegane]] a.k.a. The Hound hides in [[PrincessClassic Sansa Stark]]'s room, drunk and badly wounded mentally and physically. When she comes in, he holds a knife to her throat and threatens to kill her unless she sings. She sings such a sweet song of mercy and peace that he cries. Apparently her song lulls the beast inside him to sleep and touches something human in him, possibly preventing him from raping and/or killing her.
* In [[Creator/JRRTolkien J.R.R. Tolkien's]] ''[[Literature/TheHistoryOfMiddleEarth The Lay of Leithian]]'', when Beren and Lúthien [[VoluntaryShapeshifting shapeshift]] into Morgoth's lair, Lúthien sings a song so beautiful that Morgoth and his entire court fall into a deep sleep. Morgoth is so deeply asleep that Beren is able to carve out a coveted Silmaril from Morgoth's massive crown.
* Inuit throat-singing calms the monster in ''Literature/TheTerror'', but as the spirit-governors who communicate with the creature have their tongues removed, the monster has to literally breathe down their throat. NervesOfSteel is a job requirement.

Things go wrong and Flood kills Goldor. After Burke has finished destroying the evidence and creating an alibi, he enters the AbandonedWarehouse where he's staying to find Flood doing a martial arts kata, recreating the kicks that killed Goldor again and again. In order to end her HeroicBSOD, Burke plays "Angel Baby" by Rosie and the Originals on his car's cassette player and invites Flood to dance.

** In "The Lazarus Experiment", the Doctor plays a modified organ to defeat the MonsterOfTheWeek.
** In "A Christmas Carol", [[Music/KatherineJenkins Abigail's]] singing calms both the storm and the flying sharks inside it, letting the spaceship land safely. The Doctor tries to provide a {{Technobabble}} explanation for it, but young Kazran insists the fish just like it. Given that fish keep biting the Doctor for talking (and as such, making it harder to hear Abigail), Kazran is probably right.
** In "The Curse of Peladon," The Doctor sings a Venusian lullaby to soothe the monster terrorizing the kingdom.

* ''Series/TheGoodies'': In "The New Office", the Goodies are attacked by dinosaur-like construction equipment. They are eventually cornered at the door to their office by a looming throng of lethal construction equipment. However Bill has a bright idea just in time and he quickly ducks inside the office and re-emerges with a saxophone, trumpet and drum. Working on the 'music soothes the savage beast' theory, the Goodies play a jazzy conga rhythm, which lures the machines to initially follow them in a conga line and then to continue over the edge of a cliff to crash heavily to their doom in a quarry below.
* ''Series/{{MASH}}'': In one episode, a North Korean soldier was wheeled into the O.R. only to reveal he had a live grenade under his arm. Hawkeye and the rest of the staff ended up singing "Hush Little Baby" to calm him down long enough for someone to find the grenade pin. Lampshaded at one point:
-->'''Hawkeye''': What do you want me to do, sing to him?\\
'''B.J.''': Music hath charms, Hawk.
* ''Series/{{Pixelface}}'': In "Bored to Undeath", the gang are able to tame the zombies that escape from Claireparker's game by using Kiki's dance training program and a personal stereo playing Michael Jackson's "Thriller".
* ''Series/TheStoryteller'': In "Fearnot," the title character is a fearless fool whose only skill is in playing the violin. This skill saves him from a terrible sea monster whose only goal in life is drowning people; enchanted by the music, the monster leaves his pond and goes in search of Ireland, where the song came from. Much to the joy of everyone who lived near the pond.

* In ''Film/TheOutlawsIsComing'', Curly Joe has a hunting horn that can attract any animal to him if he plays the right. Of course, he can never remember which tune attracts which animal, and so has to resort to trial and error every time he uses it: resulting in such errors and summoning a flock of chickens and a pack of dogs into the magazine office while attempting to lure a skunk out of its cage.

** While they're hardly "savage" beasts, playing Epona's Song for the cows in ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime'' makes them outright say the music makes them feel happier and they want to produce extra milk, which Link can keep if he has a bottle to store it in. As the Real Life header points out, this is TruthInTelevision (well, minus the "talking cow" part).
