haha, for sure... pop an e and you will be getting goose bumps for a couple of hours straight - and that on any old speakers. though, the selection has to be right. : )

but on the long run... i don't know, i think its more expensive living, but better then a cheap death, eh?

A few Lamb tracks, Beth Gibbons voice (currently listening to Out of Season) and Bjork. Mostly female vocalist.

We have Rossini, not Ravel, to thank for the Wm Tell Overture AKA Lone Ranger Theme.

I'll add my $0.02: The climax of the Sanctus from Faure's Requiem.

Charlotte Church - The Water is Wide
Eric Satie - Gynmopedie No. 1
And that song from Madame Butterfly where that lady is waiting for the guy.

Thanks for the correction. This may explain why Rossini's Bolero sounds so odd the last few days.

"Prince Rupert's Lament" from King Crimson's Lizard. Does it every time as it has since 1970.

Best regards,

Darn! Someone beat me to Górecki!

Although I was going to say Miserere instead of the 3rd. Both give me chills, though. Once I was listening to Miserere and I was so withdrawn in the music that when my roomate tapped me on the shoulder I literally jumped from my chair. Very intense!

Hey...no one said that your hair had to stand up in a positive way...I agree..my hairs now want to stand up and leave.

Nope, I just didn't assume it to be a positive thing.

With the new headphone rig complete almost every disc I now listen to has the effect of making my hairs stand up. It is incredible to hear something analog sounding from digital gear. It's breath taking it is so good now.

If that's the case, Forward March by Pat Metheny on the album First Circle will make your hair stand up and make a music major's eyes water & ears bleed. It sounds like a 7th grade band their first time on the field trying to play a college level piece. (after that piece, you can't complain about anything else on the album

)

I dare you! I double dare you!

and any college music majors, I Double Dog Dare You!!

I saw the Pat Metheney Group on the STILL LIFE (TALKING) tour and they actually performed it! They all played instruments they didn't know play, apparently. Similar to the Replacements, who had a song called HOOTENANY where they all switch instruments. I saw them play that live too.. funny stuff. BTW the rest of the Pat Metheney Group concert was incredible.. one of those I wish I could go back in time for!

I've done this with some of my friends (old band mates) and it's increadibly fun and hysterically funny..and yes sometimes even stomach turning

It works out especially well if you're a really good musician. I usually choose the drums since I can pretty much play any wind, brass, horn, string instrument you throw at me..so it's a challenge. I usually wind up sounding like an epileptic having a grand seizsure though. (Good for coltrane-espue improves
