Chills

thatdarngirl by thatdarngirlOG 2002 · Oct 16, 2003 · 539 views

It's amazing, that after listening to songs a million times, they can still give you chills! I think it really shows the emotional effects that music can have on you, and really how powerful it is.

I know one song that definetly does this for me is AFI- Morningstar.

Oooh baby gotta put me back together

I need your smooth dog lovin' oh, yeah
And so I'm sending off the little monster
Gonna turn it up inside your head

Do you believe?
Holy Roller
Like a holy roller
Like a holy roller
In my head

I said you loin queen parader
I'm gonna get you down on all fours
And then you gotta show me what you're made of - little darling
I'll meet you child - by the backdoor babe

Like a holy roller
Like a holy roller
To my head

The love-bone breakdown.

Pete Yorn - Music For the Morning After--the whole thing gives me chills.

specialk #26 specialkOG 2003

"My Immortal" by Evanescence always gives me goosebumps, no matter how many times I hear it.

ophelia #25 opheliaOG 2003

Shimmer - by Fuel..I totally forgot about this song, I can't stand any of fuel's newer stuff, but, this song, which I think was their first to get attention, love it...In fact, I remember that whole album being pretty good...I bought it back when I was lik 15, working @ baskin robbins...& let a co-worker borrow it cause she was hott..haven't seen the her, or the cd since

esprit15d #25.1 esprit15dOG 2003

That song is just aweseome. The way he sings sells it. So visual:

She dreams a champagne dream
Strawberry surprise, pink linen and white paper
Lavender and cream
Fields of butterflies, reality escapes her

I love Hemmorage too.

ilikebirds #24 ilikebirdsOG 2002

I love you. You love me. - Barney and friends

esprit15d #24.1 esprit15dOG 2003

If waking up terrified in the middle of the night in a cold sweat dreaming of that song counts, yeah, it gives me chills too.

yodasucka #23 yodasuckaOG 2003

o man,,, i just thought of two more... both of them basically say the same thing but Last Kiss by Pearl Jam and also this song called Heaven's Coming by Wakefield (awsum band u should check out)

ophelia #22 opheliaOG 2003

I saw sarah mcglaughlin perform live on that Fuse channel, & woah, VERY emotional, did the traditional singing+piano playing routine, a song off her new album I think...I was like on the verge of tears.....& she's hot now!!!..when did that happen..hairs all long & fulla curls, verrrrry cute...

esprit15d #15 esprit15dOG 2003

Isn't She Lovely by Stevie Wonder

D
#14 dgiaimoOG 2003

Don Mclean's "American Pie" and Guns N' Roses' "November Rain" both have that effect on me.

yodasucka #14.1 yodasuckaOG 2003

o man.. that november rain song totally gives me chills... i def cried the first time i saw that music video too... very chillfull

forrestina #14.1.1 forrestinaOG 2002

especially since the concept was loosely based on a true story

D
#14.2 dgiaimoOG 2003

I should also add "My lord, a suppliant at your feet I kneel" from Gilbert and Sullivan's "Iolanthe" to that list.

starshiptrooper #13 starshiptrooperOG 2003

Perpetual Change~~~~Yessongs
One of Steves Howes guitar solos.

tinser #10 tinserOG 2002

goo goo dolls-name
dishwalla-angels and devils

esprit15d #10.1 esprit15dOG 2003

Name definitely has that affect on me. the song is a slow boil. but it seems like he gave thought to every word of the song.

skaorsk8 #9 skaorsk8OG 2002

i find the smallville theme song really powerful...you know, "someone save me", because clark is only saving lana. not really anyone else.

iwz #9.1 iwz

Remy Zero is good stuff

skaorsk8 #9.1.1 skaorsk8OG 2002

is it?? what else do they/he do??

tinser #9.1.1.1 tinserOG 2002

they performed live for one of the episodes...i think it might have been the season finale for the first season...for the prom

ophelia #9.2 opheliaOG 2003

haha, I always change the channel when the theme song's on

tinser #9.2.1 tinserOG 2002

how can you do that?!? You miss out on part of the experiance...you need to watch from 8 to 9....don't miss a minute...especially the coming attractions

ophelia #9.2.1.1 opheliaOG 2003

I know, I know, I'm sorry..i just REALLY don't like that song

tinser tinserOG 2002

mute it then

ophelia opheliaOG 2003

and look @ that, there's the solution....ya know, not only are you hot, you're also a genius, these are two qualities that will help you greatly in life, lol....jealous comment by dan hill IN 10---9---8---7---6---5---4---3---2--

ekulu #8 ekuluOG 2002

i was listening to one song by AFI and i began to cry. I suprised myself and my freind as well. I just cried and cried. weird

thatdarngirl #8.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

That's because it's beautiful.

ophelia #7 opheliaOG 2003

HuM- Stars
Killswitch Engage - My Last Sarinade
The Police - Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic
Dashboard - Hands Down
Goo Goo Dolls - Long Way Down
Led Zeplin - Stairway To Heaven
Tool - Aenima, Third Eye
A Perfect Circle - Orestes

ophelia #7.1 opheliaOG 2003

ANNNDDD

Further Seems Forever - Snowbirds & Townies
Tacking Back Sunday - There's No "I" In Team

ballyhoo #7.2 ballyhooOG 2001

Isn't A Perfect Circle just a bunch of Tool ripoff songs.

ophelia #7.2.1 opheliaOG 2003

um....a perfect circle's singer sang w/Tool first..but, the bands sound NOTHING alike...their vibes are completely different, they're going for two totally different artistic visions...nobody's ripping anybody off, lol...

ballyhoo #7.2.1.1 ballyhooOG 2001

oh ok. i just heard a couple songs of theirs. they sounded very similar to Tool. But again, I just heard those couple songs so I dont know.

ophelia #7.2.2 opheliaOG 2003

& plus I don't think Maynard(singer for Tool and A Perfect Circle) would be too cool w/the idea of this new band that he's in purposfully copying music of his old band, haha

omegatweeter #7.3 omegatweeterOG 2003

you like Orestes too? that song's really powerful to me.

ophelia #7.3.1 opheliaOG 2003

Maynard is one of the best lyricists to ever walk the earth, he seriously like surpasses the classification of just "poetry" w/his stuff..& the music to this song gets to me too, the guitar work is SOO artistic....I think his best lyrical work is in Tool though, I mean, the metaphores he uses are psychotic....& who the heck writes about human chromosomes getting enhanced after "Mom"(mother of creation) comes to earth to straighten things out?(that's what 46&2 is about)..crazy stuff

omegatweeter #7.3.1.1 omegatweeterOG 2003

wow, i thought the same exact thing! every single word! lol jk, but yeah you're right tho dude. maynard's great.

tinser #7.4 tinserOG 2002

yeah, dashboard hands down for me too

tinser #6 tinserOG 2002

Nine Days-Wannabe

jp #6.1 jpOG 2003

hey whatever happened to nine days, are they still around? i saw them and met the band like 5 years ago and havent heard anything from them since.

tinser #6.1.1 tinserOG 2002

they are still around sort of...last spring i went to one of their shows...real small local crowd...they were supposed to be bringing out a new album, but then they got rid of their label...so now, they have the album, but no label. They played one of the new songs from the album on the radio a while back, but then they stopped...so as for now...they're, uh...dead i guess.

yodasucka #5 yodasuckaOG 2003

Live- The Dolphins Cry.. man that song gets to me... reminds me of stuff... ya kno how it is...

fivezero #5.1 fivezeroOG 2003

yeah, thats definitely a good band. Live's old stuff is really good. the new stuff seems watered down. whenever i'd hear 'the dolphins cry' i would either think about Prince and his song 'doves cry' or the poor dolphins that we eat when we enjoy a tuna fish sammich.

ophelia #5.1.1 opheliaOG 2003

haha..yo dolphins could cry whenever they want..and nobody would ever know..they're being aquatic & all

skaorsk8 #5.1.2 skaorsk8OG 2002 offtopic

i love me a good tuna sammich. i like it when i use a TINY bit of mayo, and some mustard instead. throw an egg or two in there after hard boiling, man, that's some crazy protein.

starshiptrooper #5.1.2.1 starshiptrooperOG 2003

how about an MLT, mutton lettuce and tomato where the mutton is lean and....

ophelia #5.2 opheliaOG 2003

what's also interseting is how different of an affect the SAME stimulus can have on two different people...Cause I hate this song....

omegatweeter #5.3 omegatweeterOG 2003

good one bo.

J
#4 jollycandymanOG 2001

"Shiver" - Coldplay, "Why Does It Always Rain on Me?" - Travis....... and the "Electric slide"

E
#4.1 exitstageleftOG 2003

the electric slide gives me chills of horror, because even after all these years i still can't do that stupid dance.

omegatweeter #3 omegatweeterOG 2003

A Perfect Circle - "Orestes"

ophelia #3.1 opheliaOG 2003

haha, I never scrolled down this far..GOOD SONG!!

E
#2 exitstageleftOG 2003

Eleanor Rigby usually has that effect on me. so does Bridge Over Troubled Water. and sometimes Stay(Faraway, So Close) by U2. but not always.

J
#2.1 jollycandymanOG 2001

Same here with Elanore Rigby, I hadn't noticed until you said it, The violin gets me every time

esprit15d #2.2 esprit15dOG 2003

ditto with eleanor rigby. it has the guts to make you feel bad, and then not offer any anwers.

T
#2.2.1 toxicgirlOG 2003

I have a book called, "A Hard Day's Write" It has the story behind every Beatles song. I love the story behind Eleanor Rigby.

J
#2.2.1.1 jollycandymanOG 2001

whta the story behind it?

starshiptrooper #2.3 starshiptrooperOG 2003

that song usta scare me to death asa little kid. it was eerie.

fivezero #1 fivezeroOG 2003

theres a few Smashing Pumpkins songs that give me chills. and theres a band called Brad that i love, that NO ONES heard of! i lost their CD, called Shame, like 7 years ago and i found it again! i played it and i snapped it off immediately! i was just...unprepared for the impact...i forgot how much i LOVE that stuff. of course i turned it back on and listened to it.
