This is weird because I'm only partially into classical music, but I had a bad dream once and right at the moment of the scariest part, I heard Strauss' Death and Transfiguration. Since then, it has always given me chills.

The Arcade Fire-Tunnels. Seeing them live the effect was even greater!

Elliott Smith-Roman Candle-No Name #1

Just 2 off the top of my head

 

[BigA]

Couple off the top of my head -

O.V. Wright - The Bottom Line

Beach Boys - Good Vibrations

Mariah Carey & Pavarotti - Hero (For The Children Of Guatemala & Kosovo 1999)

Luciano Pavarotti - Caruso

And everything Pink Floyd

I Get emotional when I listen to the music of my youth.

 

[Binaural Fusion]

I can think of a few but here are a few key:

"Exit Music for a Film" - Radiohead , the whole thing but I like when it crescendos at 2:47

"Little Wing" - my favourite version is SRV's (I know I know.... sacrilege) until at least I heard Hendrix play it on Disc 2 of his box set f*ing amazing, I still get chills

Maggot Brain - Funkadelic

Elgar's Cello Concerto in E Minor (Op. 85) especially the first movement

Dayvan Cowboy - Boards of Canada especially to the music video of Joseph Kittenger's high altitude jump: YouTube - Boards of Canada - Dayvan Cowboy (High Quality)

Is There Anybody Out There - Pink Floyd the guitar / soundscape

Songs that give you goosebumps are the reason I'm into audiophilia in the first place.

 

[philodox]

Right now? Ulrich Schnauss.

 

[strangemusic]

For some reason "In My Place" by Coldplay... eegh, Coldplay!

"Portrait of Tracy" by Jaco Pastorius

Also, I agree with Binaural... getting the shiver is essentially why I wanted to find better audio gear.

 

[dantztiludrop]

At this moment, I am listening to Passion: Music for "The Last Temptation of Christ" by Peter Gabriel & it's making me shiver....but then again I don't have the heat on & the room is kinda cold.

Another vote for Pavarotti - Nessun Dorma

 

[VolkswagenFox]

Slipknot - Prosthetics

and The White Stripes - Catch Hell Blues (don't know why, but it's a damn good song IMHO.

)
