You can just see the time notches on it there. They're moving to indicate that the music is trimming at the same time as this clip. This is a far removed trim, and it means that the sync for these first four clips will change for the music, but not for the clips after the one that I'm trimming. It seems wild, but this is a way that you might find yourself trimming from time to time.
