The man is a burgler, sneaking in the house of someone who has a gun at hand. He's not sneaky enough to avoid detection unless the music's on. Once it was turned off, the man was caught and shaught - I mean shot.

Well yes, I suppose so but none were the answer I was looking for, although one came closer than the others.
I hope it's nothing to do with car crashes - that would be a bit close to reality!

The Chemical Brothers were recording their latest single. It had a sampling of a person hooked up to an ECG in hospital. The man died so the music stopped. Hmmmm, maybe not.

My guess is that you have a character flaw.
The blind man went swimming. He left his portable radio playing on the beach so that he could find the shore. The batteries died. And he followed.

Is this another of those tragic tales of a disillusioned American expressing himself through the medium of light ordnance?
"Ricky was sick of feeling second best. He was determined to win the game of musical chairs at his own birthday party but when his ma stopped the music and Ricky failed to get a chair something snapped inside. With the derisive laughter of the other children ringing in his ears he ran to his dad's gun cabinet, grabbed a shotgun, returned to the party and opened fire on the horrified kids. Nobody is laughing now! He had never fired a gun before and did not expect it to jump like that. Pa fell to the ground and died." :'(

the man was a blind folded tightrope walker in the circus, the music stopped too early, he thought that was the signal of his being at the end of the rope, he lost his balance and fell to his death...
