After listening to Godspeed You Black Emperor - f#a#infinity I must say that album is bone chilling for me.

Dude! Bore me then, of course I won't be.
Most recent Rush goosebump moment, listening to the Far Cry sample online. To say I'm estatic about the new release is an understatement.
Obligatory other non-Rush goosebumps:
End of Supper's Ready (its so denouement )
Beginning of Marillion's live CD right as the the intro ends....perfect.
Petrucci's solo in Voices
The first key change in Blood on the Rooftops
The return to the main theme in Kansas' Song for America

I don't think anyone's mentioned the "Celestial Voices" section of Saucerful of Secrets, although I prefer the many live versions out there ie. Pompeii, Montreux etc. I also especially like the live "Funky Dung" sections in Atom Heart Mother. Others I would include that haven't been already mentioned include the last 8 minutes of Karn Evil 9, the finale of Deep Purple's "Mistreated," the second half of Jethro Tull's "Passion Play,"
the intro of Jethro Tull's "Wind Up," the second half of "Utopia Theme" by Todd Rundgren's Utopia, the intro to "In the Cage" by Genesis, but preferably live. There's so many more, but that's what creeps to the top of my head right now.

My number one in this case: Banco Del Mutuo Soccorso "750.000 Anni Fa... L'Amore"
Also King Crimson's "Eruption" & Iron Butterfly's "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" (especially when keyboardist make this wondeful church-like organ solo...) are a real "goose bumps makers" . |

Dream Theater's Octavarium(the song). More specifically, this part:
[Root] Our deadly sins feel his mortal wrath Remove all obstacles from our path [Second] Asking questions Search for clues The answer's been right in front of you [Third] We try to break through Long to connect Fall on deaf ears with failed muted breath [Fourth] Loyalty, trust, faith and desire Carries love through each darkest fire [Fifth] Tortured insanity A smothering hell Try to escape but to no avail [Sixth] The calls of admirers Who claim they adore Drain all your lifeblood while begging for more [Seventh] Innocent victims for merciless crimes Fall prey to some madman's for impulsive designs [Octave] Step after step We try controlling our fate When we finally start living it's become to late Trapped inside this Octavarium Trapped inside this Octavarium Trapped inside this Octavarium Trapped inside this Octavarium 7th, the bolded, really stands out to me. |

Well, TerLJack , I remember vividly that I was listening to the Dutch radio in 1977 when they played some songs from the just released Wind And Wuthering album, I was blown away by the break halfway One For The Vine
More Rush goose bumps: the violin-Mellotron eruptions in the ballad Tears !

For me:
PINK FLOYD MOMENTS: 1. the distant voice at the end of DSOTM saying "There is no dark side of the moon. Matter of fact, it's all dark."
2. Wish You Were Here: remembering the subject of the song.......
3. "Stop! I wanna go home. Take off this uniform and leave the show. But I'm waiting in this cell because I have to know. Have I been guilty all this time?"
Jethro Tull Moments: 1. the acoustic section of Aqualung
2. Windup: It just so TOTALLY fits into my frame of mind concerning religion.
YES moments: 1. Close to the edge: the entrance of the synth on Cord of Life.....
2. Machine Messiah..... for some reason the song just hits the right nerve.
Rush moments: 1. The finale of 2112
2. Limelight....
3. On their first live album: the re-entrance of the riff from Working Man......
NON PROG:
Bowie moment 1: hearing Ziggy for the first time.....
2. from Ashes to Ashes: "I've never done good things, I've never done bad things, I've never did anything out of the blue....."
Blue Oyster Cult: 1. the guitar solo in Astronomy on "Some Enchanted Evening."
2. Patti Smith saying : "You're boned like a saint, With the consciousness of a snake." at the start of the "Revenge of Vera Gemini"
There are more... but this is a start.

I'm probably the only one on the archives that'll say this, but just about every single T.a.T.u song played extremely loud results in a massive amount of goosebumps

-Almost all of In The Court Of The Crimson King, especially the first time I heard it. The mellotron on Moonchild in particular, especially the opener.
-Several parts of Close To The Edge, particularly the beginning of Wakeman's solo. -Many Pink Floyd moments: Breathe, several parts from Shine On You Crazy Diamond, most of Wish You Were Here (the song), the finale of Dogs, the guitar solo at the end of Pigs, quite a few songs off of The Wall (Goodbye Blue Sky, Comfortably Numb, Stop, Vera), the ending of Echoes, and the horns and the vocalizations from Atom Heart Mother -Most of TAAB |

Dealing with some less familiar or previously unmentioned examples, in no particular order,
From albums 1. Gentle Giant - instrumental and guitar solo on 'His Last Voyage' and the middle section of 'The Advent of Panurge' 2. Genesis - 'Chamber of 32 doors', particularly the closing vocals. 3. Caravan - guitar solo on 'No backstage Pass' and all of 'Chance of a Lifetime'. 4. Audience - sax solo in 'House on the Hill' and the flute/sax solo on 'Priestess' . 5. Fruupp - Fender rhodes solo on 'Sheba's Song' and the whole orchestral ending, esp. those French horns. 6. Hatfield and the North - last segment of 'Mumps' esp. the spacey/jazzy riff with flute. Live performances 7. Bela Fleck and the Flecktones - Victor Wootten's rendition of 'Amazing Grace'[on the 'Live at the Quick' DVD]. 8. Roger Waters Darkside of the Moon Tour - Carol Kenyon's scat version of 'The Great Gig in the Sky' as seen live in Sydney [Aust] on 25/1 /2007. It' all good. |

I can't agree more. And I forgot this song as one of my all-time favorites. My older brother used to sing and play that song on guitar in his room when I was a kid. It brings back chills when I hear it. Especially the quiet
"I dont believe you:
You had the whole damn thing all wrong" Overall, that song nails much of my ideology towards the elders/preachers of the Christian religions, particularly Catholism. Edited by StyLaZyn - February 20 2007 at 08:27 |

Thanks Norbert, your contribution helped me to remember my goose bump moment by your fellow countrymen Omega during the spectacular Minimoog solo on Help To Find Me, the highlight on their outstanding 2-live-LP Live At The Kiss Stadion And I also share with you the compelling In The Cage by Genesis (great musical translation of fear) and the closing section of Forgotten Sons by Marillion, one of the best neo-prog (or neo-symphonic ) compositions ever made |
