Songs/Music That Give You Goosebumps!

There are countless songs that do this to me but I would like to name 2 that immediately came to mind,

"Angel" - Sarah McLachlan

"Deep Red Bells" - Neko Case from Blacklisted

The first because it reminds me of someone I was very much in love with at the time when I first heard it and Neko's because it's just a truly tremendous song from a great album.

Rick

 

Expecting To Fly - Buffalo Springfield played really loud.

 

Summer Rain-Johnny Rivers

 

Yes, Michael!

Poor Side Of Town - Johnny Rivers (HE wrote this?? Naw, I think Jimmy Webb's just being nice!)

Old And Wise - Alan Parsons Project

 

"Ocean Gypsy" Renaissance
"Blue Moon" Elvis Presley
"Neue Regel" Queensryche
"Moon Struck One" The Band
"The Very Thought of You" Nat King Cole (thanks Steve!)
"And Dream of Sheep/Under Ice/Waking of the Witch" Kate Bush
"Moths" Jethro Tull
"Peaches En Regalia" Frank Zappa
"Frozen Man" James Taylor
"Mission" Rush
"Didn't I" Kim Richey
"Norwegian Wood" the Beatles

"I Can't Make You Love Me" Bonnie Raitt (Thanks Steve!)

...and many more...

Tony

 

The orchestral coda to Paul McCartney's song "Tug Of War"; segueing into the Steve Gadd/Ringo Starr intro to "Take It Away". Gives me goosebumps every time!

 

"Someone Saved My Life Tonight," Elton John ... from the bridge until the very end of the song. As emotionally powerful as Elton ever got, IMO ...

 

"Rockestra Theme"
"Mars, Bringer of War"
"Dead Skin Mask"

 

A live performance by Barbara Nissman of a short Ginastera piece with a title that translates as something like "Dance of the Sad Eyed Maiden".

Or for something completely different,
Frank Sinatra: Blues in the Night (stereo version).
