So I was Re-listening to Ten Because Pearl Jam are coming down to NZ, And Black started to play,
As I moved my gaze from my PC off my work to the wall, then for the duration of the song closed my eyes and let one of my favourite songs wash over me, Just letting it soak in,
I have heard this song numerous times, It still gives me chills,
Pavarotti singing Nessun Dorma is another,
Pink Floyd,
Also I really enjoy listening to Crime of the Century By Supertramp
The Doors
What songs give you chills?
What songs that you listen to touch you only in a way that really good pieces of music can?
Oh and also, Try to limit the amount of Embeds, As I get shit for it,
And if you quote a post delete the embeded video in question,
Cheers.

These are some of most memorable peices of music that have had an effect on me (guess I have a thing for Hans Zimmers work)
Spectres in the Fog - The Last Samurai (the last 1.30 seconds is what gives me that shiver down the spine effect)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUhvGut8C3M&feature=related
Theme From Gladiator
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1f-5AxaNaQ
Haven -Flesh Field
Hate is Mine - :Wumpscut:
Disarm - The Smashing Pumpkins
The great gig in the sky, Yeah,
Comfortably Numb, Wish you were here, Hey you.
Just words cannot describe accurately how much these tracks have made me feel, If I have a bad day I chuck on some Floyd and let it just,
It's like a drug, Music to me is a drug, I cannot live without it.
Zimmer is really good, You can tell when a film has the Zimmer treatment, Next to Clint Mansell Hans Zimmer is my next favorite Movie composer, Next is James Horner, Braveheart Freedom.
Last of the mohicans theme promontory, Just wow.
Getting into video game music I think this one was pretty stunning, and one of the highlights of the game and for those who followed the series

" @Red12b: Oh man I forgot about Braveheart, freedom is beautiful, one of those rare moments in a film that the combination of what your watching on screen and the soundtrack your hearing brings a tear to your eye. "
Hahaha, I read that and then looked at your avatar,
It's four in the morning so I am picturing a demented rat crying...
Sæglópur by Sigur Rós, as well as Samskeyti. Well, most Sigur Rós, actually. Lullaby by The Cure, You Won't Know by Brand New, Skinny Love by Bon Iver and Bluebells by Patrick Wolf are the ones that come to mind straight away. Also, Let Go by Frou Frou and Street Spirit (Fade Out) by Radiohead.
Your not far off, but to remain on topic (last one out of me i promise)" @NoExtraLife said:
