Way past the Rainbow
Listened to a different album while watching another movie, with the sound turned off.

I enjoy listening to music at a reasonable volume...

Dreamweaver
I was dubbing The White Album (to preserve my original, legally purchased tape). While dubbing at 2x speed, I feel asleep. Next thing I know, Alvin and the Chipmunks are singing "Why Don't We Do It In the Road". I woke up screaming.
