I was just thinking about this, because i just got chills for the 5th time on Awakens opening howe riff explosion of power.
 
I didnt think it was possible to get chills from a part i know so well, so many times.
 
Second place is thick as a brick transition in part 2, you know, the mario sounding transition...amazing.

As with Lost Chord, I have to go with Awaken.  Back in 1976 I drove cross country twice, as well as up and down the state of Californina numerous times while listening to the entire album, unfortunately on an eight track.  It was years before I realized that unbelievable song was actually one song.  The intro and Wakeman just before the close still give me chills.

Many chills, from many band. Many different chills as well.
Sometimes the chills cannot be explained rationally.
 
Lots of Marillion songs. Some old Camel songs.
 
Radiohead - Exit Music
Fields of the Nephilim (yes, it is prog) - Love under will
Mike Oldfield - Hergest Ridge part 1
Pendragon - 2 AM (only the acoustic version)
Genesis - In the Rapids, the solo in The Lamia
Dream Theater - Deja Vu (the climax with the piano)
 
Non-prog:
Tom Waits - Ruby Arms (and many more from Tom)
 
More chills to come: Autumn is coming.

ELP- the gorgeous solo keyboard piece in 'The Great Gates Of Kiev' from 'Pictures..'. Arguably, the 1990s re-recording is even better in this section, having gained more drama and resonance. The key it's played in fits it better than the original, imo.
 
Genesis- The Cinema Show, The Fountain Of Salmacis, Apocalypse In 9/8, Ripples, Mad Man Moon, One For The Vine, Fading Lights
 
IQ- Widow's Peak
 
Yes- Awaken, The Revealing Science Of God, Gates Of Delirium ('Soon'), Close To The Edge
 
Uriah Heep- Firefly, Paradise/The Spell
 
King Crimson- Epitaph, Starless
 
Marillion- Hearts Of Lothian
 
Pendragon- As Good As Gold, Paintbox, solo section in Guardian Of Your Soul
 
Caravan- And I Wish I Were Stoned, Where But For Caravan Would I
 
Camel- most anything from The Snow Goose or Nude, Who We Are, The White Rider, Chord Change

The Carpet Crawlers definitely give me spine chills and nostalgic shivers, even though I first heard it two months ago! Also, in Supper's Ready we have the beautiful "Wandering in the chaos the battle has left" vocal and section which never fails to instill an ethereal, ghostly feeling. There are several chords in The Musical Box that outright make me feel disturbed, due to the calm and misleading softness.

On the Yes front, the quiet sections from Heart of the Sunrise make me shiver, or give the chills of creeped-outness. LOL Several sections of Tales from Topographic Oceans have really spirit-like, floating synth passages and the downright beauty of Steve's acoustic Ancient solo!

The ultimate creeps/shiver/chill giving section for me - OF ANY SONG - is the Dark Forest section of "A Passion Play", by Jethro Tull. You know, the very epic-sounding journey type music that bookends the Story of the Hare Who Lost His Spectacles. True beauty and etherea (if that's even a word) Embarrassed

Man, forgot Kansas and Rush!!!

Rush - Lifeson's guitar solo on "Kid Gloves", "Limelight", and "Chemistry". As a whole, "The Camera Eye" never fails to send a shiver down my spine.

Kansas - "Carry On Wayward Son", "Hopelessly Human", Walsh's vocals on "Relentless", "Reason To Be", "Nobody's Home", "The Pinnacle", and "Chasing Shadows".

Many, many.   Tops would be Firth of Fifth (especially about 4:35), Apocalypse in 9/8 from Supper's Ready, and at about 3:55 in Fading Lights (the appropriate song to signal the end of Genesis).  From IQ, The Enemy Smacks, Headlong, and State of Mine.

There are HUNDREDS of songs where I felt chills . Unfortunately, now I feel it in only few of them and have to stop listening to a particular song for a very long time - half a year, a year. It's a pity that in most songs you feel it only during the first few listens. OK, my favourite moments:
Transatlantic - Suite Charlotte Pike (part In the Temple Of The Gods )
Genesis - CAN - Utility etc.
VDGG - The Emperor In His War Room
Yes - Starship Trooper
IQ - Leap Of Faith
Rush - Vital signs
Pink Floyd - Echoes

and lots more...

Dream Theater - Learning to live. The last chorus sung always gives me chills.

Actually, part of what makes those "goosebumps" so good is because I'm eagerly waiting for them to happen.

One newer one that is doing that for me is the song "12" on Neal Morse ? CD. 
 
It starts with a simple vocal line over acoustic guitar and organ.  In the second verse Stave Hackett starts playing his ethereal guitar lines under the vocals God is that beautiful.   Then the vocal moves into a round of two different  vocal lines culminating in the chorus with guitar adding another melody (that part gives the chills).   The music then gets very heavy and dark and Hackett delivers one of his most blistering solos I have ever heard with Mike Portnoy driving the whole thing.  The whole thing is addictive. Smile

Strangely enough…Turn of the Centaury as well as almost every other song in Yes’s classic period.  Also the part of Thick as Brick with “…cooking his goose…” and the priest=Aura part of Aura by the Church. The Snow Goose, Takk… and Slow Riot for New Zero Kanda all have had amazing effects. Also the ending sections of Suppers Ready, Dogs and Comfortably numb solo.

oh holy.

 
 
so the single most bone chilling/epic thing ever is the 2 to last movement of cassandra gemini in frances the mute when theres this low bass playing the same minor key over and over while this really f**king loud sound kind of grinds (i think its a guitar but it could be a synth its so distorted) and then the sax comes trilling in (oh man its so good just thinking about it) with its solo and then the main riffs starts to come back in but this time it has a rhodes piano in it too and its mixed up just slitly and the drums are just driving this thing freaking crazy all the while the sax is freaking out with trills and sound drops from it then the standard verse comes in but with omars solo, easily his best and most frantic ever, while cedrics singing. and then. and then the rest of the band drops out and then theres the strings with their little flutter up and then back to the epic chorus growing and expanding with the added vocals- "no theres no light, no theres no truth" then back to teh beginning with sarchougi
 
so. EPICCCCC!!!!!!!!!!!!

Difficult one this. There are probably many that I can't even think of at the moment that will, when I play them, give me that satisfactory 'chills' feeling.
 
Off the top of my head. Fly On A Windshield by Genesis always does it for me.
 
Navigator by Porcupine Tree is also damn atmospheric.
 
Rumblefishtwist by Flower Kings is yet another. It just changes so magnificently from speed to calm it takes my breath away, especially the last fading note. Very surreal in an almost alien way.
 
Oh yes, another from Porcupine Tree - Stars Die. Superb stuff.
 
But, as I said, there are countless others.
 
(Indeed, as I finish off, I can also think of Entangled - Genesis)LOL

    1- The Lamia : Genesis (Hackett's solo is arguably one of the most memorable in prog)

2- Script for a Jester's Tear : Marillion ( Personal reasons...)

3- Spectral Mornings : Steve Hackett

4- Hoping love will last: Steve Hackett ( Singer Randy Crawford is sublime)

5- I Talk to the Wind : King Crimson

I could go on but these are pieces of music which in my case, give me goosebumps.
