Weird? How far back do you wanna go? 27-year-old Hector Berlioz (pre-video, pre-record) got pretty dam weird (for his day) with his 1830 "ymphonie fantastique".
"The music whips into a frenzy as it bears the soul of the Artist to his damnation. His beloved gloats over the scene. Such an ending had never been heard before."
