    right.. need to get more tracks that just send a shiver up the back of your neck.. i.e. absolutely beautiful in every detail and sung with actual feeling and emotion.. songs with a soul.

    for those who havent a bollox what im waffling about, along the lines of:

    pink floyd - comfortably numb
    flaming lips - are you a hypnotist
    kila - sean deora
    bjork - come to me
    neil young - natural beauty
    low - lazer beam
    spiritualized - stay with me/feel like goin home
    lynyrd skynyrd - simple man
    mum - we have a map of the piano
    etc. etc.

    your additions are welcome... don't mind if they're instrumental even..

    With a lot of songs that do that, the effect wears off after a few listens. To me anyway. I love it though :]

    Smashing Pumpkins - "Set The Ray To Jerry"
    Pixies - "Hey"
    Godspeed You Black Emperor - "Levez vos Skinny Fists comme Antennae to Heaven!" (whole album really)
    Rob D - Clubbed to Death (well, about three years ago it did ;])

    Can't really think of any more, cos as I said it wears off on me and I forget it ever happened.

    There's one song that gives me goosebumps all the time.
    Organ Donor by Dj Shadow, so doesnt really fit into your requirements.
    I'll think of more later.

    Great track.
    Used in Dj Shadow - Brainfreeze track 2 (I think it's track 2).
    Also great version done by Marvin Gaye.
    There's an awful lot of different versions of this song.
