Chills when listening to music

[2020visions]

I thought this was something everyone experienced but a recent article said otherwise. I wanted to have a vote and see how many people this happens too? I’m fascinated! I get real chills and my hairs stand on end when I hear a song I like - sometimes for the duration of the song. This most recently happened when listening to Hometown by Adele.
Let’s say:

YABU - I don’t ever get chills
YANBU - I do get them!

Yes, I just had this listening to Civilian by Wye Oak.

I feel like my insides are swooping about when it happens.

3 for me

Sound of Silence by Disturbed
Vienna by Ultravox
Brothers in Arms by Dire Straits

Proper goosebumps

I’m thinking most people get this sometimes!

Sound of Silence by Disturbed
Vienna by Ultravox

Yes and yes.

The first few notes of phantom of the opera, and LOADS of classical music give me the chills.

Choral music for me.

I get this for so many songs but the latest one has weirdly been Show Yourself from Frozen 2. When the music builds towards the end, I get chills over my whole body and I tear up every single time I hear it!

It’s such an amazing feeling isn’t it! I find it incredible how we can have such an emotional response to music

Yes!! My most played atm is Chris Stapleton live videos on YouTube his voice sends chills down my spine and other places 🤣🤣🤣

My entire Twin Peaks cassette

There’s a guy called dan vasc on you tube who covers Disturbed’s version of the sound of silence. It’s amazing.

For me it’s the G5# at the end of nightwish’s Ghost Love score- gets me every time.

Definitely!

Yes I get this too. I always wondered if it was connected to ASMR. Only certain songs though.

My daughters in an amazing school choir. They’re all 11/12 years old. I always get goosebumps when I hear such little girls sing live with these wonderful voices. I got tears in my eyes hearing them sing o holy night in a Christmas performance in Liverpool cathedral

Mine are multiplying - I may be losing control.

I get it too, but no particular songs. It can be covers or originals, and I could have listened to it a million times before, but it just happens randomly!

Never.

I don't really feel music at all.

There are pieces I am fond of, Gabriel's Oboe, Song for Athene, a few bits by Dvorak, but otherwise I just find music irritating.

I never get chills listening to music. I think there is something missing and I don't appreciate music properly.

I definitely get this, I've always said I can feel music!

Brilliant

Don't ever go to the Sistine chapel.

I always get this, sometimes it's the voice or the voice combined with a specific lyric in the song. I always have chills with great guitar solos especially love versions. Not everyone gets this I've had many a strange look!

*live versions

Yes lots!
Ultravox Vienna as previously mentioned is a culprit also Gunners Dream by Pink Floyd. The sax. Chills city.

I definitely get this sometimes.
