Anyone ever hear a song so good or emotional that it gave you chills? I have a couple;

BTBAM - mordecai, ad a dglgmut
At the drive in - non-zero possibility
Hopesfall - The end of an era, endeavour
Arcade Fire - rebellions
Majority Rule - It's too late
Red Sparowes - Alone and unaware...(if you don't know this band, you definitively have to give it a try!)

Post yours!

Usually some songs give me the chills for some time, then there's a break, and then they give chills again. These tracks usually are:

Jean-Michel Jarre: Ethnicolor
Jean-Michel Jarre: Second Rendez-Vous
Vangelis: End Titles from Blade Runner
Wendy Carlos: March From A Clockwork Orange
Alexander Brandon: Deus Ex Title Music
Alexander Brandon: Deus Ex Intro
Bill Brown: Anachronox Title Music
Joel McNeely: Destruction of Xizor's Palace
John Williams: Main Title - Rebel Blockade Runner
John Williams: Rescue from Cloud City - Hyperspace
Ennio Morricone: Once Upon A Time In America

And there's always some tracks (or actually, the Vader-related parts of the tracks) which give me the chills all the time

John Williams: The Battle of Endor Part II
John Williams: The Battle of Endor Part III
John Williams: Leia's News - Light of the Force
Star Wars: TODOA | DXN - Deus Ex: Nihilum

John Petrucci - Lost Without You

Actually, most of John Petrucci's stuff is that way, as well as Dream Theater.

My favorite version is the "Album Cut". If this song doesn't give you cold chills, you must be a cold-hearted *******!
