There is one specific Smashing Pumpkins song (Hello Kitty Kat, I think) where in the last few seconds as the guitars are fading out, Billy says a few unintelligible words, which somehow sound as if they are coming from just over my shoulder when wearing ear buds.

It scares the shit out of me EVERY single time I listen to it at work because it makes me a coworker is talking in my ear, trying to get my attention.

There is an old audio recording from the 80s of the Stephen King book The Mist recorded binaurally. It's fucking fantastic with headphones. I'm having a hell of a time finding a copy though.
