are there any tunes that no matter how often you hear them never fail to send a shiver down your spine??

i've just heard radioheads "street spirit" and it never fails to have that effect on me

The Stereophonics did a brilliant cover of that. You wouldn't think Kelly Jones had the vocals for it but he really surprised me with the quality of his range.

Carl Orff wrote it and it's called Carmina Burana: Fortune, Empress of the World: O Fortuna

The end of my wedding video, the videographer made a slide show of me beaming and my husband looking at me with such love to Roberta Flack's version.

Every time I hear that song I'm reminded how truly happy I once was.

Other songs that make me shudder and instantly change my mood:

Sacrifice

Lately

Dance With My Father

Even though I'm a proud Englishman, whenever I hear the Welsh National Anthem played at an international rugby match, I get a lump in my throat and go misty eyed

I heard Ewan MacColl (Kirsty MacColl's dad) sing this to his wife in a dingy wee basement club in Edinburgh many, many years.

Even MacColl's biggest fans wouldn't claim he was the world's best singer but hearing the guy who wrote the song sing it live to the woman he wrote it for was a magical few moments.

For me it's the over elaborate intros to certain Bee Gee songs that always make me tingle when I haven't heard them for a while

More than a woman

Too much heaven

If I can't have you

They never fail to have that effect on me....
