 Beethoven's 5th Symphony: 
every time i hear the main riff in the symphony the tempo changes , it goes slower and gives a impact to the sound and creates tension with a smooth movement. The tempo keeps going faster and slower , like a roller coster. It creates a very dramatic mood.

Diana Ross - Love hang over:

It starts with a smooth and slow tempo, this makes me feel relaxed, chilled. The tempo is also nice and steady. When the tempo changes it goes faster and makes the vibe feel like a disco party

Ike and Tina Turner - Proud Mary: in the beginning the tempo is slow and chilled. This makes me feel calm and relaxed. When the tempo changes the groove feels faster because the tempo is faster and makes me want to dance and makes me smile.

Radiohead - Paranoid Android:

The tempo started slow in the beginning and creates a relaxed yet dark feel. When the tempo changes it becomes slower and softer, this makes me feel calmer: even though the atmosphere is heavier and darker and sad

Queen Bohemian rhapsody:

the tempo is slow at the start , it is an accapella. it is calm because it's slow, this creates a feeling of sadness. Half way through the song the tempo becomes faster and and gains energy and becomes very dramatic and theatrical, the speed of the tempo fluctuates from slow to fast then slower. Like a roller coaster. At the end the the tempo gets slower with the same energy and then the energy gets slower, then becomes very slow and ambiguous and its all over the place and its hard to interpretate.  this makes  me listen closely to the fine details of the tempo and track
