I found other songs that use silence.
The Breeders, Cannonball

More songs that allegedy use the SOUND, SILENCE format were mentioned in this article: https://medium.com/@lucaslafranconi/grea...5fee309d6b
Those are really interesting. I have heard many songs using silence but many had a real impact other than being a rest. This with the image of holding breathe almost encapsulates perfectly what i meant, but in past and done ways. Maybe there is a way to do this only with sound and no images or lyrics, which is the ultimate goal of this thread.

Anechoic chambers! They're really quiet. Maybe you're right in the sense that it could have the same effect (recreating bodily rushes), but i'm wondering if this will instead take away from the whole silence thing, as there would be something for people to focus on and lose the psychological impact.
