80 Songs That Give You The Chills
Matthew Perpetua

Earlier this week, we posted a story by Sean T. Collins that investigated the phenomenon of “chills” - that strange tingling sensation you can get from particular sounds and powerful moments in music. Sean mentioned a bunch of songs that gave him that feeling in his story, which led commenters and BuzzFeed staff to share songs that did it for them. Here’s a playlist featuring some of those songs, plus a bunch more.

This is only the tip of the iceberg, obviously. What music gives you the chills?

      I definitely recommend this song, the best part is at the end when it is just his voice and the piano, pure magic.
