Cold chill moments, what songs touch you?

Goig! · 27-03-2004, 04:40 PM

I´m listening to a selection of the best songs of Dire Straits, themes like Tunnel of Love (specially the final) and Local Hero (a live version, I get goosebumps everytime) I can actually feel them on my skin.
What songs give you the chills?

I´ll add some from the top of my head:

Your Latest Trick, Dire Straits too.

Prospero´s Speech from the album The Mask and Mirror by Loreena Makennitt (actually the whole album is one long steady cold chill moment for me, but that last song really makes me shiver, perhaps because The Tempest is one of my favourite Shakespeare´s plays)

Nessum Dorma, from the opera Turandot, specially if it´s performed by Pavarotti.

Another from an opera, The Flower Duet from Lakme

With or Without You, U2

Russians, by Sting

May It Be, Enya

The Boxer Simon & Garfunkel

Mediterraneo, by Joan Manuel Serrat

Here, There and Everywhere, The Beatles

When the Snow Melts by Phil Cunningham, if you know it rise you hand; it took me 6 years to find out this song after hearing a snipet in a commercial.

Vincent by Don McLean, this gomdamned song almost makes me cry.

Your turn.

On Every Street... this Dire Straits CD is pure gold.

Nessum Dorma

Nice.. After I heard that song in the movie The Sum of All Fears, I immediately went out and got the soundtrack to hear it again. Definitely one of my favorite opera pieces.

The Cranberries - Zombie

Enya - May it Be (specifically the major chord change in the middle of the song)

MLK Jr - I Have a Dream.. speech.

Craig Armstrong - B.O.F 1942

Among others..

Bryan Adams: Inside Out.

Pur: Abenteuerland.

Oh, and two of my alltime favourites:

Chris Isaac: Wicked Game.

and

Songs that give me the chills:

Windir - Martyrium
This one is "ripped" from a psalm. Its about some guy who died in a battle a long time ago and is off to the land of eternal rest.
The vocalist of the band died a couple of months ago which kinda gives the theme of the song an added affect. It's raw, brutal, epic and fast as hell. Brilliant song. |,,|

Dimmu Borgir - Allehelgens Død I Helveds Rike
This one got a nice part with clean vocals that contrast to the brutal music. It also got some nice synth parts.

Månegarm - Ursjälens Visdom
I love violins in metal songs. This one got lots of em, including a cool solo. Chill chill chill.

I got lots more but am too lazy to type em in

Cic · 29-03-2004, 06:32 AM

Well I really love:

Damien Rice - Volcano

Damien Rice - Cold Water

Thomas Dybdahl - Cecilia

Thomas Dybdahl - From Grace

Pink floyd - Comfertably Numb (Or how you spell it)

Delillos - Vår

Radiohead - ALL OF THEM!

Theese songs are really chilling and you should get them!

Ohh and of course The darkness, Bob dyllan, Pharell, Snoop ++

/edit**

geoMan · 29-03-2004, 08:28 AM

Linkin Park - Numb is my all time favourite song now....just listen to the lyrics....its simply wonderful....

Evanescene - My Immortal this song just reaches my heart..there is indeed power in her voice..

LOTR soundtracks are also wonderful....like "May it be" from Enya...especially when she sings in Quenya... and Annie Lennox's "Into the West" is one good oscar winner too!

[r3D] · 29-03-2004, 08:42 AM
