Nothing like a good thread resurrection!
Here's one from me, "Ghost Love Score", live at Wacken:
Came here to add that one! Number one on my list.Here's one from me, "Ghost Love Score", live at Wacken:
Also, I'll nominate 5 other "hairs stand on end" songs that always give me the feels:
I Am Sovereign by Dimmu Borgir
Love the whole Eonian album, though I gather Dimmu Borgir fans hated it
Humming by Portishead
Song for the Unification of Europe (Patrice's version) by Zbigniew Preisner (from Three Colours Blue)
Obvs extra emotion since Brexit, but if the last 30 seconds doesn't give you gersberms you're probably not human, however you voted
My Baby's Taking Me Home by Sparks
An emotional rollercoaster of a song, even though the only words - pretty much - are "my baby's taking me home" over and over
and finally
Jos mulla ei ois sua, mulla ei ois mitään by Maustetytöt
"If I didn't have you, I wouldn't have nothing"
Hope the links work.

Mrs Magnum & I watch '3 colours' every few years, along with quite a few other Kieslowski films. Strong preference for European Cinema over US in our house. But then. Mrs Magnum is European..... That's definitely a 'hairs stand on end' moment in our house too.Also, I'll nominate 5 other "hairs stand on end" songs that always give me the feels:

Haven't read the whole thread so not sure if someone has mentioned it already but definitely:
Solar stone - Seven Cities - https://youtu.be/rB9SaTnh41M?si=mJlehZyJgMFa_LWR
Nothing else reminds me of the golden age of euphoric trance than that. Amazing stuff.

Really takes me back in time when I hear that.
For something newer, that I only heard for the first time at the end of last year, this:

Chicane - Mass Bloom Beach
Gets me everytime, put it on a decent HiFi and turn up loud, the way it builds is spine tingling to me.
'An Ending (Ascent)' from Brian Eno's 'Apollo' album.
Gets me every time, not only goosebumps/hairs standing on end, but moves me to the verge of tears. I have no idea why; I don't think it has any link to an event from my past, as I'm fairly certain I'd never even heard it 'til a couple of years ago. You never know, though, something might be buried in my subconscious......
