Do you experience chills when you hear a really good song?

[Anonymous]

I was listening to some random short where three guys I'd never heard before were singing a song, and I got chills, something that happens a lot with me. So I googled, and it's called "music frisson." It is the sudden rush of emotions that some people experience when listening to music that evokes emotion. The French word frisson means "shiver" or "aesthetic chills".

Researchers have figured out this phenomenon happens to about ~55% of the population and is linked the pleasurable centers of the brain responding to things like introduction to different textures in songs, a new voice in a song, solo instrument emerging from a softer orchestral background, etc.

Yes, I get the chills

No, I've not experienced this

Who hasn't? OMG 27% of you are missing out on one of life's most simplest of pleasures!!!
Michel Basquiat said "Art is how we decorate space, music is how we decorate time" and it's so true!! Doesn't everyone have AT LEAST a dozen or so songs that are magical and transport you back to that place in time or space or with that person and you fondly smile?

Not a good song but songs that I correlate with a memory. I had a playlist I listened to prior to football games to get me hyped up. If I listen to any of the songs from that playlist I still get hyped up/ "chills". It's pavilion

I only get the chills when I'm cold. But nothing else ever gave me them.

I have it occasionally. It never occurred to me that there might be people who don't experience this. Is it the same as ASMR? Discuss.
