Another song thread - songs that always give you chills

[Glen]

This was inspired by HH mentioning Jeff Buckley's version of "Hallelujah" in the covers thread.  That and Johnny Cash's version of "Hurt" are obvious choices.  I present one not many people will know, from one of the dude's in King's X - a song about divorce.

Cemetery Gates by Pantera

 

The lyric "And when she died, I should've cried and spared myself some pain... Left me incomplete. All alone as the memories still remain" always gets me.

[tdawg87]

 

Probably my favorite song. The entire song gets me but especially the "Look away down Gower Avenue" part at the end.

 

And for something a little more metal (this one's for you nate):

 

 

More specifically from 6 minutes on.

Omg!  I love Barlow fronted Iced Earth.  Something Wicked is in my top 5 all time albums.  Don't run into many Iced Earth fans.

 

Reminds me of this song:

 

[Stradling]

American Pie

Cats in the Craddle

[notherhalo]

that one hit wonder song which was sang by the Asian looking girl, her head was shaved in the side 15-20 years before it was popular (in the mid 90s)

[Spirit]

Same as the other thread ... Hallelujah  - Jeff Buckley

[InsideThePark]

Cemetery Gates by Pantera is a good one.

My Immortal by Evanescence. That's right, f*ck you Brandon.

Because it was the favorite of my namesake uncle who died a slow and heartbreaking death from Alzheimer's, any version of Green Green Grass of Home, even karaoke, gives me chills. 

[Ray McKigney]

Randy Rhoads' guitar solo on Goodbye to Romance.

Cemetery Gates by Pantera is a good one.

"I'm Too Sexy" by Right Said Fred.

[HaloMilliVanilli]

Incidentally, I was watching a clip from a Springsteen concert from earlier this year or late last year.  It was around the time of the death of Levon Helm, drummer/singer from The Band, and Springsteen began to sing The Band's song "The Weight".  Totally got chills as one can clearly hear 10-15,000 (that's a rough estimate) people begin to sing an entire song (not just the chorus) of a band they didn't come to see as a tribute to Levon Helm.  It was pretty cool.  I can't think of any song that gives me chills each time I hear it, but there have been plenty of songs that have given me chills but it's more about the moment that I'm hearing the song combined with the song.

Spin Doctors- Little Miss Can't Be Wrong

[ELEVEN]

Die Antwoord's touching Cookie Thumper. Gives me chills.

[Eric]

If you grew up when I did, the the Theme from The A Team still works in giving me goosebumps.

[HeavenlyHalos]

I guess it would be The Beatles' In My Life and Radiohead's Pyramid Song.

[Tank]

Lee Greenwood - proud to be an American

Canadian Tenors - hallelujah

[Agalloch]

Pretty much any song by Kate Bush. I swear, that woman is the most talented person to walk the earth.

[Redondo]

Knockin' on Heavens Door - Bob Dylan

[eaterfan]

Landslide by Fleetwood Mac.
