So many of my songs. If I listen intently, I always get shivers at just the right moment. I'll give you two, I guess.

Korn - Tearjerker


Tarja - Boy and the Ghost

If you can't get shivers down your spine you're a robot.
Oh, don't watch the video itself, just start it then minimize your browser.
I've got a lovely choral version of that. Creeps the hell out of me, but it is so beautiful.

The song that's giving me chills at the moment is 'Sing For Me' by Tarja Turunen. Just the bridge/breakdown.. Goddamn.

But in response to the poll, yes, lots of songs give me shivers. 'Fabric' by Dark Tranquillity still does, even though I've listened to it a million times.

Not media, but the last time shivers went down my spine was when the girl I'm kinda with was biting my neck. Holy shit that felt good.

I sometimes get shivers with Into the Nothing by Breaking Benjamin, but like the OP, I never fail to get shivers when I listen to Requiem of a Dream.

Everytime I listen to 'Waltz of the flowers' by Tchaikovski or Requiem for a Dream by Clint Mansell I just get shivery all over. Same with some of the Halo soundtrack and with 'Stairway to Heaven'. If it's a song I really like, then I shiver when I hear it. It's involuntary.

Sometimes, depends on the music it is. Depending on how wide your range is, you could count Finntroll and Big D & The Kids' Table among my 'favourite music', but neither exactly manage to send shivers down my spine.

Bouncing Souls
Mainly because they're both so human, and I can relate to the lyrics of the second personally.

Rancid
Again just a human song about a very believable person. And the second just has a good chorus.

Dead Prez/The Coup
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xnTW-4SVeE-Get Up. Just the pure confrontational tone of it.

Some examples from the song
"Is you a "have" or you a "have not"?
When you run out of bullets grab rocks
Cuz the prison don't slam locks
It don't open when your fam knocks, 'less you rich and have stocks"

"And even if you a friend of The Blue
You can get it too, snitchin is never forgettable
This Hell we livin is never forgivable"

Not to mention the last lyrics in the song call for the Crips and Bloods to reform the Black Panthers.

Also, Again by Archive tends to get that happening.

If a song is energetic enough or the speakers are good enough then I get shivers. Paintings, no. Movies, a lot more than music.

Only with songs that have meaning to me, especially with the songs that I always listen to before lacrosse and football games

Only with requiem for a dream (probably a few others but thats the only one I can recall atm)

Its usually with epic choral songs or classical pieces with a certain resonance.

Who knows, this may be the phenomenon that made people in the middle ages think that certain music was that of teh devil.

Of Wolf and Man used to do that to me. Mostly now, though, it's Demons and Wizards quieter songs (Wicked Witch, Down Where I Am, etc) and some of Blind Guardian's stuff that does it.

Yeah, metal gives me chills. Classical has been known to too, especially some of Wagner's opera. So much raw power is intoxicating.

never music, just movies. Mad max and grave of the goddamn, motherfucking, firefly's. Not only that, but grave of the firefly WILL make you cry, or at least get close when the little girls dies. if you don't cry, you're either have no soul or your Hitler
