Sudden shifts in construction, major riff changes, different tune at some point of the song...
(04:30 for 30 sec build-up to shift)

This is the closest I can come with a song that's not a medley of two or more songs. But there's more than two changes, some bigger changes than others.

Layla has that lengthy coda. Yes, great example there.

A couple of gear-changes on this epic. The sudden shift from mid-tempo to up, on 05:20 is the biggie. But I have always been more excited and even exhilarated by the more subtle shift of gears just after 06:02 where he picks up the "It's not the side effects of the cocaine..." It feels like we're in a car moving into the faster lane. Oh, mama, I still get goosebumps at that switch up...

I really like this topic because one of the first things that hooked me on rock and pop was what they called miniature symphonies in the 1960s - songs like 'Good Vibrations' by the Beach Boys and 'A Day In The Life' by the Beatles which were so inventive and ambitious in scope. Here's 5 songs I'm crazy about, hopefully they all qualify.
'Shadow Of The Wasp' - Royal Trux
'Medicating Angels' - Ultra Vivid Scene
'Fever Few' - Throwing Muses
'Stella Was A Diver And She Was Always Down' - Interpol - 'The New'
.

It seems those kind of songs really multiplied in the 1970s with the rise of Prog Rock. Groups such as Yes, Emerson Lake & Palmer, Rush featured songs with different sections or movements similar to Classical music. Also CSNY, Heart and some of Joni Mitchell's Jazz selections. I'm sure there are others I'm forgetting at the moment.
Song changes at 2:33.

The Beatles tacked on codas to Magical Mystery Tour, Hello Goodbye, and Strawberry Fields Forever.
Happiness Is A Warm Gun fits well.

Here’s a song of 9564 halves:

4:32 is when the second half starts. The chorus is repeated at some point but other than that the sound is drastically different from the first half.
The band has tons of songs with two halves but that was the first that came to mind.
Progressive rock and metal have a lot of songs like that.

Here's a couple of those perfect 2-part songs and another funky pocket symphony.
Throwing Muses simply throw curveball after curveball to reconstruct their songs, don't know how to adequately describe what they do from song to song, but it's like rearranging jigsaws to them ...
'Gut Feeling\Slap Your Mammy' - Devo
'Smash It Up (Parts 1 & 2)' - The Damned
'Walking In The Dark' - Throwing Muses
'I Am The Resurrection' - Stone Roses

I have adored this for over 40 odd years and can play it every other day and it still enthralls.
One of the earliest anti-religion, anti-deity songs I remember.
Great lyrics to a moody backdrop....top hooky chorus......THEN......a sublimely satisfying wig-out with everything including the kitchen sink thrown in .
Suck it and see, fellow Imdbeastie boys.

I still have my contribution saved in a text file on my computer. Blimey......the old boards of 'that other site' . Had a lot of fun on those boards.....apart from my regular rows with fontineau and sir_ten and his alias. Mind you......I was also SirClffRichard0BE on the same board. Where you alpha there? .....and I do remember waffling about my anti-deity views on various forums. I'd be intrigued to know what I put on that probably wine-sodden post.
