Weve had songs that make you cry,so what about the ones out there that give you the shivers and make the hairs on your back stand on end.
Radiohead's Climbing up the walls has always done this for me,and even after hearing it god knows how many times over the past seven years it still does it now.
Massive Attacks Unfinished Sympathy does this as well but only when i hear it live now.
Coldplay's Trouble used to do this but has been played to much now,and recently The Streets Dry your eyes mate has on occasions done the same.
So do songs do the same for you??

Songs that give you a chill!!
Morbius says Carrie by Europe ...... the song had such a profound effect on him he named his daughter after the track (her names Carrie not Europe for those wondering!). He's just added Phil Collins - In the Air Tonight as well.
I don't think I have one ..... I have a few relaxation tracks (reiki music) that make me tingle and I don't mean sexually - there are some really good pieces of classical music that take my breathe away as well.

Three Lions
OK, I know it is a football song but every time I hear it now it conjours up images of Wembley during Euro 96, the stadium a mass of St Georges flags and everyone in the place singing their hearts out - a rare outpour of English pride!!!
I know what you mean. I've never been passionate about sports until I came to England, and of course, exposed to the beautiful game.
I hear the crowd chanting at the beginning of Three Lions and the goose bumps rise and I become quivery.
If we're going down that route.... how about the tunes they played when they left the pitch? I'll always feel that sense of despair when I hear Greenday's Time of your life or Oasis's Stop crying your heart out.
Canadian but a Proud supporter of England!

JS Bach's Toccata & Fugue does it for me, especially after the transition into the Fugue part.
In my teens Xanadu by Rush really got to me (showing my age now ;-) ). And there's a long list of rock tracks depending on my mood at the time:
Kashmir - Led Zeppelin
Control - Puddle of Mudd
Money - Pink Floyd
Virtually every track on both Led Zep 2 & 4 (special mentions to The Lemom Song and Four Sticks at the moment)
Hells Bells - AC/DC
Come As You Are - Nirvana
the list is endless and ever changing :-)
You'll have guessed by now I'm a bit of a Hard Rock fiend ;-)

Hey Steve..... I was gonna do that one next!
I do have a strict plan I have to stick to you know.
Now I'm going to have to sit up all night trawling the Cafe for any threads that haven't been mentioned before and re-plan my diary for the dates that I will be posting my threads. Such an inconvenience!
Back on the the original question now......
My most spine chilling song has to be Radiohead - Creep. I love it so much.
There are others but I won't bore you all!

Lou Reed's Berlin
takes me straight back to the damp attic flat i lived in with me first g/f at 17. so much so i can't bear to listen to it anymore! spine tingles and the hair on my neck bristles. it's a sad album anyway, but has so many associations for me that go with it.
that or Gorecki's Third Symphony ( Sorrowful Songs ) not a big classicist but beautiful music with the saddest associations.
n x x ;-)

I had it all typed up - the one that made my hair stand on end a few weeks ago, what a stunning experience - and then I realised I had misread you.
You weren't talking about snogs after all.

Kayleigh by Marillion
Dont you forget about me by Simple Minds
Drops of Jupiter - Train
These three songs are my most favourite in the world, they make me happy and all have significant meanings.
Drops of Jupiter always makes me happy
Kayleigh makes me think and Dont you forget about me reminds me of absent friends.

Hurt sung by Johnny Cash.
Many say the ideal song for him to have sung and released prior to both Junes' and his deaths.. it is such a tempermental song and touches that part...
(I have never heard the Nine Inch Nails version)
Another was Kirsty Macoll singing Days... a song that was released the day after my Dad died and raises that lump in the throat and a chill thinking that it was the poiniant message behind it...

Massive Attack's Unfinished Sympathy,gives me goose bumps every time,
Also Radiohead,Climbing up the walls and Street Spirit send a shiver down my spine everytime i hear them.
But Radioheads High and Dry seriously sends me all a quiver,especially the lines:
"Drying up in conversation,you'll be the one who cannot talk,
All your insides fall to pieces,you just sit there wishing you could still make love"
Wow just sent a tingle down my spine just reading that!!!Pure genius!

Insatiable by Darren Hayes......makes me shiver every time I hear it....
Totally with you on this one. It's an amazingly beautiful sensual song
Massive Attack's Unfinished Sympathy used to do it for me but I think I've heard it too often now.
I'll mention Depeche Mode's "One Caress"
This Mortal Coil "Song to the Siren
Underworld "Thing in Book"
Underworld "Beach" (50,000 music geek points to anyone who knows this one!)
Arcadia "Lady Ice"
and the "Meet Joe Black" soundtrack, but I could list songs for days...
