To ask what song gives you goosebumps or

[thelistisendless]

Takes you back to a moment?

Mine is Barcelona by Freddie Mercury and Monsterrat Caballe

I was 6 when the Barcelona Olympics were on and I remember being stunned at how powerful this song was even at age 6. It made me stand and watch. When I hear it I still get goosebumps and can remember the moment I heard it.

'You in the sky' by The Waterboys

Ahhh Red sound of silence 😊

@Fridaydreamer that’s a haunting version, guaranteed to make emotions rise if the mood is right! I adore Disturbed’s version too.

I’d say Stan, Eminem, absolutely tear jerking.

Angie, Rolling Stones.

Susan Boyle’s initial audition on BGT. Stunning.

I’m going to come back to this thread tomorrow.

A previous poster mentioned My grandfather's clock. I feel so sad when I hear that song and I'm not even sure why. We had a big grandfather click when I was a child so I thinink it's connected to that. Also Puff the magic dragon has me sobbing, I think it's list childhood or something. Whatever, gets me every time.

Played at my cousins funeral who took his own life.
I'd never heard it before but I have it on my play list now. I absolutely love it

Just Like A Pill, by Pink. I'm not even a fan but the words "you're just like a pill, instead of making me better you keep making me ill" became a mantra and gave me the strength to leave an unhealthy relationship.

And various classic 90's dance tracks that take me right back to my raver days. Higher State of Consciousness gives me goosebumps every time, tuuuuuuuune!

Mael Susan Boyle? Really?!

One more time.

Moreso after the Manchester bombing.

I always thought Con te partiro was beautiful but hearing it yesterday had me in tears when I realised the last time I heard it was when Bocelli sang it at the King Power stadium. As an exiled Scouser, old enough to remember my own club's tragedy, You'll Never Walk Alone when Gerry Marsden sings it also gets me.

Gonna make myself a playlist tomorrow and listen to all these songs.

For me roxy music - Avalon

Just my imagination. The Temptations.
Rhiannon. Fleetwood Mac.
Love is Pleasing. Davy Graham.
Another Sleep Song. Graham Nash.
Cowgirl in the Sand. Neil Young.

Romeo and Juliet - Dire Straits
Angie - Rolling Stones
Paint it Black - Rolling Stones
Seems so long ago, Nancy - Leonard Cohen
Your song - Elton John
White Flag - Dido
All of me - John Legend

All of these have special memories, but the last one, 'All of me', was being played a lot when I lost my beloved dog, and I played it when I scattered his ashes on his favourite walk. Now it is bitter sweet and I can't hear it without crying, once embarrassingly in the middle of a meal in a restaurant with an old friend, but luckily he loves dogs and completely understood.

Also, 'Another Day in Paradise' by Phil Collins and the earlier 'Streets of London' by Ralph McTell. I live in London and love it intensely, but there is no denying the uncomfortable juxtaposition of extreme wealth and poverty living cheek by jowl.

Wing Beneath My Wings - Bette Midler, and an odd one here, Give It Up - KC and the Sunshine Band

And this.

This Woman’s Work. Kate Bush
Northern Sky. Nick Drake
The Lion Sleeps Tonight, and You Are My Sunshine dh used to sing these to ds every night when he was a baby.

Oh gilead that is just gorgeous - new song for my Strictly fantasies! thank you x

You've got a friend
Something inside so strong.
The first played at my dad's funeral as he was such a true and genuine friend to everybody and would help anyone.
The latter at mums as she fought so hard for us to have a good life and had three jobs on the go. Then she had many long arduous health battles but just always smiled through.

Posting one of coolCarrie's choices as the skies in the video are as beautiful as the song....

Not sure whether to post as on these kind of threads I usually post the same ones but some of them may be new to some of you so....

K - Cigarettes after sex

Wires - Athlete If I be wrong - Wolf Larsen Auld wives - Bear's den The system only dreams in total darkness - The National 1,000 times - Hamilton, Leithauser and Rostam Numb - Marina and the diamonds

Oh and I loved Coco and liked Remember Me but this should have won Best Original Song instead.

Chilling, especially towards the end around 4:40

Asleep - The Smiths, beautiful song
More than this- Roxy Music, transports me back to floating in the pool on holiday in Spain.

God yes, You’ll never walk alone. When the fans sing it I’ve been known to cry but I always get spine tingles. Fearless - Pink Floyd has the same effect.

My Temporary home by Carrie Underwood. Just listened to it and the tears start within the first minute. Can’t listen to it in public as it is just too embarrassing!
