No, not the song from Rocky Horror. THIS Time Warp is another cool show on the Discovery Channel in the same line as How It’s Made and MythBusters.

Here a couple samples:
This one shows shock waves in a human receiving a boxing-style punch and a wine glass breaking because of sound.
And THIS one is a terrific montage of different features from the show:
