What song/s give you chills/goosebumps?

Question

You know, we all have that ONE song that just sends chills down your spine and goosebumps on your body - The vocals, the instruments, the emotions, the feelings you get from listening to it…

Here’s mine;
• How to disappear completely - Radiohead
• Nutshell - Alice In Chains

What’s that one song that gives you chills/goosebumps?

Lliam · Accepted Answer

Lots of songs can give me chills/goosebumps.

I'm a rock guy, but I'm going to go off reservation here and name some different stuff.

First, some classical music is bad ass and can do that to me. Beethoven's Ode to Joy, Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries, Rossini's William Tell Overture are a few of many examples. Here are a few more samples:

This next song kicks my ass every time (not on account of patriotism). It's just so beautiful and rousing.

Switching gears, here's a song that both cracks me up and gives me chills

Here's another oldie that can get to me

I could go on and on with rock and roll and rock music from the 60s and 70s that totally give me chills. There's lots from Hendrix. But I'll close with three songs out of dozens.

There are several songs which can do that to me, though not every time. Songs like that I have heard too many times for it to always affect me, I guess. Now that you mentioned Radiohead, I come to think of 'Street Spirit' and especially 'Reckoner' <3
The most recent I discovered is 'They Won't Go When I Go' by Stevie Wonder:

A lot of songs can do that to me

gfedcba · Answer

Brain Wilson's album No Pier Pressure. If there was a formula for perfect expression of music's potential beauty on an artistic (emotional) level that man had the most skill for it of anyone I've ever been exposed to - everything about it is masterful.

In a more technical sense of songwriting creativity/perfection Elton John's Funeral for a Friend; listening to that song makes anyone realize how oversimplified and lacking in creativity/quality modern popular music is.

Booth tantalize me from different angles.

CrazyGirl2 · Answer

That song Timothy by”The Buoys”. It sounds just like any decent early ‘70’s song, until you realize they killed Timothy and ate him!
The song is about 3 men who are trapped deep within a mine that had a cave-in. They are fine, but boy do they start getting hungry! Is too gross to think about, but a decent song if you don’t listen too closely

DarkCarousel · Answer

I love this question. I’m trying to think of one now. Sometimes I listen to the song over and over until it no longer wrecks me. I don’t know if there’s one right now that continues to give me chills. Maybe if I heard it live, or in a piano or acoustic version. I’m thinking still…

Hellraiser1984 · Answer

Dimmu borgirs cover of twisted sisters burn in hell. Its very dark and brutal compared to the original. To me it's about a guy who has no options left in his life except to annihilate his enemies and make them and their entire families suffer for wronging him. No mercy no morality, no stopping until he's in his throne and watching his enemies suffer slowly.

Closer by The Chainsmokers

It was my favorite song when it came out, I believe I was about 15. Me and a friend used to BLARE it in my car all the time, and I have so many memories attached to that song. It always makes me pause when I hear it because it just overwhelms me with emotions

"Behind These Hazel Eyes" by Kelly Clarkson.

That part at the end of the bridge where she goes up on the high note and she's like,
"ANYMOO-OOOORE..." 😱

And then she goes back into the chorus -- with the harmony. 🤤

Gets me every time. 😌
