Hi guys. Please post the songs or the specific parts that give you absolutely goosebumps. That is the best songs you have ever listened to that gives you that ''full'' feeling. To name one for me is the song: Alaska, by Shadow Gallery. |

| This is a hard one, because there are so many to choose from. Aqualung (specially the guitar solo), The Musical Box (mainly the ending part), Voyage of the Acolyte, Heart of the Sunrise, Tarkus, etc. Way too many to mention. |

Also, tubular bells(especially towards the end with the naming of musical instruments).

While thinking about this I remembered a moment on a car trip in 1997. I was visiting the USA and was staying a few days with a friend in northern California. Sometime in the past year I'd introduced him to Guided by voices. This is in my pre-tinnitus days because we were driving along with 'Don't Stop Now', from their then current album 'Under the Bushes Under the Stars' blasting on his car stereo at such volume that it could probably have been heard in Oregon. During the end section he attracted my attention and smiled and pointed to his arm, which was covered in ridiculously pronounced goosebumps. |

I remember it taking me a long time to get into when I first heard it when I was around 16 years old. It just sounded so odd and out there and I never heard anything like it. Actually, I think one of the things I like about it is that it's so off the wall. However, I think islands(and maybe even Lizard)are weirder.

Right.....not sure which kind was meant, but perhaps either or even other words to describe the cause of the goosebumps. Oh.......here's the thread starter's definition below:
For me I can't list all of them, but here are some: Marillion "Easter" especially the guitar solo, but also some of the lyrics/vocals for that. Ad Infinitum "Waterline" guitar solo and vocal harmonies YES "Awaken".....just wow! Nice visual when YES shot off the white confetti near the climax of the song in concert. Roine Stolt "Dissonata" YES "Close To The Edge", especially the climax/vocal chorus near the end. Big Big Train "Winchester Diver" particularly the dramatic vocal refrain. Kate Bush (too many to list) YES "Going For The One" Echolyn "A Little Nonsense" Marillion "The Last Straw" (whole band & Tessa Niles' voice WAILING!!) King Crimson "Red" Leger de Main "Silent Monster" Non-Prog: Imogen Heap "Oh Me, Oh My" and "Come Here, Boy". |

Three that come to mind for me are While My Guitar Gently Weeps by The Beatles, The title track to The Grand Wazoo by my man Frank, and The Dabsong Conshirtoe by Caravan. |
Posted By: AFlowerKingCrimson
Date Posted: April 17 2019 at 20:51
The last few minutes of Dabsong is just amazing. I especially like the way it goes back to the theme from the first song on the album. It's almost a bit of a trainwreck but somehow it works.  That album sometimes gets a bad rap but that one track definitely saves it imo. As for Frank the one by him that stands out for me is "Peaches en regalia." Anyway, another one for me is "the fountain of lamneth part 1" by Rush(especially the first few minutes with the opening guitar riff). |
Posted By: AFlowerKingCrimson
Date Posted: April 17 2019 at 20:58
|
[Genesis: First of Fifth - You know the part ] No, really I don't but I'm guessing either the flute solo or guitar solo.
|
Posted By: YESESIS
Date Posted: April 17 2019 at 21:15
Yeah Peaches is obviously a well loved classic by Frank. So is Inca Roads. But he has so many great tunes, almost impossible to pick just one.. for me anyway. I'll have to check out that Rush song sometime. I do like them, just a little burned out on them(Floyd same).

Wow, I've had goosebumps from so many songs, but I'll pick out a couple: Yes - "And You And I". The part where the music swells and Jon comes in with "Coming quickly to terms of all expression laid. Emotion revealed is the ocean maid". Gets me every time, even after 30 years. VdGG "La Rossa" from "Still Life". "Drown me drown me now and hold me down before your naked hunger, burn me on the altar of the night. Give me life!" That powerful sense of longing for something seemingly unobtainable, but which will provide ultimate meaning and fulfillment. Such a powerful emotion and certainly gives me shivers. Also, from the same album, the ending of "Childlike Faith in Childhoods End": "And though dark is the highway, and the peaks distance breaks my heart, for I never shall see it still I play my part. Believing that what waits for us is the cosmos compared to the dust of the past. In the death of mere humans life shall start." Powerful stuff that never fails to bring a lump to my throat and a tear to my eye. ------------- Songs cast a light on you |

I'll never forget getting the Aerial CD after waiting so many years for a new release from her. I enjoyed disc 1, but was blown away by disc 2, and by the time Nocturn finished, and Aerial started, I was near tears. At the close of Aerial (and the end of the CD) I was just weeping. Can't say that's ever happened to me before listening to music. I can get choked-up, but that one just did me in.

Soft Machine's "Song of Aeolus" from Softs is one that always shakes me up a bit. Also Camel's "Watching the Bobbins" from Harbour of Tears is one that I find quite moving. Renaissance's "Song of Scheherazade" always gets me too.

Camel is a band with many songs that give me chills Song within a Song, particularly the ending gets me every time. It's just out of this world. Echoes by them as well, the verse in particular There's really several throughout several throughout what ive listened to so far (Mirage, Snow goose, Moonmadness, Rain Dances, Breathless, Rajaz, Nod and a Wink) they're simply one of my favorite bands ever. Outside of that I can only really think of The ending of Suppers Ready and Cinema Show. Perhaps the Night Watch by King Crimson and Starless

There must be many.. but the ones I remember now, that also frequently come accompanied by watery eyes (mainly in Rush), are these: Rush: · A Farewell to Kings: The combination of power and those amazing, epic, beautiful, direct, addressing, historical, justice and better society through intelligence and common sense driven lyrics... being screamed by Geddy: Can't we find The minds that made us strong? Oh can't we learn To feel what's right and what's wrong? What's wrong [Lifeson's breaking guitar solo over the bass and drums section] Cities full of hatred Fear and lies Withered hearts And cruel, tormented eyes Scheming demons Dressed in kingly guise Beating down the multitude And scoffing at the wise Whoa can't we raise our eyes And make a start? Can't we find the minds To lead us closer to the heart? · Xanadu The ending guitar solo from that starting low note (but it could easily be the entire song: the birds, synth, chimes and guitar with volume effect at the beginning and the breaking of the drums & guitar picking after that). · Here Again The slow guitar solo Genesis: · The Fountain of Salmacis The ending march with the guitar solo · One for the Vine The synth part near the end |

Hi, Apart from some lyrics, almost all of the music mentioned here has been a part of my sexiest and loving'est moments ever ... and the only goosebumps I might have would be some nails running slowly through my back, or my own nails running through hers! Some lyrics are the bigger problem for me, and while I like Steve Wilson, and have no issues with his work in PT, on his own, every now and then one of his lyrics hits me wrong ... and badly wrong. It's not the lyric itself ... it's how he says it ... it's more than "personal" .... it ends up sounding vindictive and malicious, and that kind of stuff has a way of turning me off that person's work. So far, I have not let go of SW, in this example, but one more moment of that ugly side, and I will never play another SW moment, or possibly even another PT moment, even though I love that band ... but it's the mates that make it, for me, not him! ------------- Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about!

IDK why, but the excerpt in my signature from General in His War Room by VDGG, always does it. It's more a confluence of the production, atmosphere, instruments used, etc. - it creates an apex of imagery from me, that I love about prog so much. "Into your...LIVING ROOM...*bass trill*" ------------- "I am so prog, I listen to concept albums on shuffle." -KMac2021 |

| I got to see King Crimson in Nashville a few nights ago. Lots of goosebumps, and their performance of Starless was particularly moving. Level 5 brought the house down. I think Tony Levin left the Grand Ol’ Opry with some structural damage. What a night! |

First one I thought of was the opening up of Cinema Show. By that I mean "chocolate surprise," where it goes from 12-strings to BASS PEDAL, ORGAN, and ELECTRIC GUITAR and the DRUMS kick in awodfihbvifvb. I listened to that part with an old girlfriend on repeat. Keeping on Genesis: The guitar/organ break after Hackett's solo in Supper's Ready during the battle, and the subsequent feel-good part with acoustic guitar and the organ riff in the background; when Peter comes in shrieking in the second verse of Back in N.Y.C.; the major part near the end of the Cinema Show solo, as well as the part earlier with the choir effect and bass pedals; the end of The Raven synth solo; the last verse of In the Rapids; the climax of the middle section of Mad Man Moon and how it rises gently back into the final verse; the piano ending of One For the Vine; when the lyrics come in on Duchess; the organ solo on Can-Utility. This band has the most for sure. The ending of Close to the Edge is legendary; the end of the middle part of Sound Chaser where Jon sings the theme alone and then the last part of the melody is reharmonized; the end of Turn of the Century; the harmonies on the middle part of South Side of the Sky; the middle symphonic section of Astral Traveller; the part in Leave It where they restate the intro harmony vocals. The end of You By My Side going into Silently Falling by Chris Squire The middle section of People Music by Herbie Hancock, as well as the end of the saxello solo in Butterfly. Pretty much all of 4 A.M. The keys solo on Blessed Relief; pretty much all of Zoot Allures; the B section of the melody of the first half of What's New in Baltimore? -Zappa The end noodling on Cadence and Cascade; the opening flute on Lady of the Dancing Water; whenever Adrian goes to that minor 4 on Matte Kudasai, "chair"; whenever Adrian sings the 9 on Two Hands, "hands"; the chorus of Prince Rupert awakes (the bass though), the end of Prelude. -King Crimson The development of Fugue, especially when you hear how Keith works in the Endless Enigma theme, and finally, it's ending, and transition to Enigma part 2; the piano solo before and after the acoustic guitar solo in Take a Pebble; the piano solo in Trilogy that abruptly become the second part in 5/4 -ELP When the piano and strings come in on Wond'ring Aloud; when the strings come in on Slipstream and on Cheap Day Return; the Childhood Heroes part in Thick as a Brick pt 1. -Jethro Tull The end of She's Leaving Home by The Beatles The end of Song Within a Song and Chord Change; the end of La Princesse Perdue. -Camel The end of Tandem by Et Cètera The whistling solo in La Cathédrale de Strasbourg by Focus The end of His Last Voyage; the bass on A Reunion; the first part of I Lost My Head; the part where everyone sings in Knots; Think of Me with Kindness; when the beat kicks in on Proclamation; the harmonies on No God's a Man; when the middle section of Schooldays gives way to the vibes solo. -Gentle Giant The second verse of Earthrise; the growl vocals on The Architect; the last chord of Lapse; the bridge of Celestial Elixir; Atlas Stone; As Death Embraces; the calm section of Falling Back to Earth; the "I wish I could have been somebody" part of Somebody; guitar solo of Crystallised; the calm section of Nocturnal Conspiracy; Deathless; the end of Visions. -Haken The end of On Time as a Helix of Precious Laughs and Hidden Woods by Happy the Man The Rain Song by Led Zeppelin The end of Sheep; the part in Echoes (you know the part). -Pink Floyd The climax of La Luna Nuova; harmonies on Il Banchetto and Geranio. -PFM Intro/outro to Can You Understand?; intro to Trip to the Fair; end of Things I don't Understand. -Renaissance The build-up near the end of Jacob's Ladder by Rush The synth solo on Big Ugly; Mr. Montauk; synth solo on Thing of Gold; end of Flood; bass solo on Skate U; Cory Henry solo on Lingus; the melody of Flight. -Snarky Puppy That part in School that's major for a second; the build-up of Sister Moonshine; soprano sax solo on Just a Normal Day; "so easy to fiiiiiiiiiind" on Fool's Overture. -Supertramp The melody of Non-Brewed Condiment; pretty much any Allan Holdsworth solo The end of the choral section of Son of There's No Place Like Homerton by Hatfield and the North Helplessly Hoping by CS&N Bridge to Incommunicado; the synth arpeggios in Neverland; the end of Invisible Man; when Invisible Ink gets pumping; end section of Man of a Thousand Faces; Easter. -Marillion The part at the end of the harmony vocals in Thoughts Part II when the harmonies get evil and distorted, emphasizing the neurosis; The Doorway; the part in Cakewalk on Easy Street where the riff comes back unexpectedly after the chorus under the last chord of said chorus. -Spock's Beard And the list goes on with stuff by Caravan, Egg, Chicago, Chick Corea, Discipline, Frost*, Kaipa, IQ, Magma, The Who, The Police, Tears for Fears, Steely Dan, Weather Report, UK, The Tangent, Paul McCartney, George Harrsion, and MORE.

Me too. I never disliked Islands, but it wasn't a stand out track for me on the album, but live it really moved me. I've seen them do it twice now, and it's kind of become 'our song' for my girlfriend & I, although it's safe to say I 'feel it' a little more than she does. Anyways..other goosebump inducing tracks.. Los Endos - Genesis Awaken - Yes Man ERG - VDGG From the beginning - ELP Xanadu (from ESL) - Rush This Woman's Work - Kate Bush Sheep (particularly the ending) - Pink Floyd Rubycon Part 1 - Tangerine Dream ------------- Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy! |

What gives me goosebumps are powerful female voices in a rock / prog setting. Earth and Fire - especially Atlantis intro and full track by Jerney Kaagman Julian's Treatment - A Time Before This (First Prophecy, etc.) with Cathy Pruden Renaissance - Scheherazade, Ashes Are Burning (especially in Live at Carnegie Hall for 23 min of pure bliss), Mother Russia, and many others by Annie Haslam, but also earlier band with Jane Relf Curved Air - Metamorphosis with Sonja Kristina Pink Floyd - The Great Gig in the Sky by Clare Torry, also Shine On You Crazy Diamond (no special female here, but the whole 26 min pure awe) ------------- expand y-our mind, expand y-our world at planetwork.org |
