When you listen to a particular piece of music that you really love, do you get "anticipatory chills"?

..as in, just before the best part of the song comes on, you feel a wonderful cool chill up and down your spine as you wait for that moment when the music washes over you and carries you away...

Music is the window the soul ,it creates the heart beat with in us all ,it creates memories of love joy and ache heart ,it allows us to breathe as each notes passes through our veins connecting hearts and souls with those it touches in this world we call life . With out music theres no harmony there’s no you and me , music allows us to see the world in this amazing way ,the tones the beats of each piece shares just one fraction of who we are with another soul in this beautiful place with in our minds .Music is the food that feeds the world and brings lovers ,friends ,companions together to share this beautiful feeling of sensual love for music and all that it brings to each and every one that it touches .

No, I've never gotten chills from music because I loved the music. Or because I knew it would be played soon.

The sadness or happiness in a song might bring tears to my eyes or a lump to the back of my throat, or send my heart rate up. That kind of physical reaction I get more often from music.

Sometimes, but not always, I get chills/goosebumps from music after a beautiful crescendo that resolves musical tension and sadness in a song. There is just something about a few key notes that can hit a person just right. To me it generally has only happened when I've been very sad or stressed, and the music relaxed me into really listening to it. It generally only happens with live music and not recorded music. And only if I am undistracted by lyrics. It doesn't happen often. And I'm always surprised when it happens.

Maybe not quite that dramatic but sure I get something like that in the first few notes of some selections.

@GerOttman ☺️👍 Spanish gypsy music, love it! GIpsy Kings (a gypsy band from Spain /France) has been performing for decades and as you can see from the video above, hundreds gathered there couldn't help but dance. We all dance whenever they play the band's music at every festival here in Spain. Great for flamenco dancing. If people want to hear their best one, I would suggest this album out of the so many albums they have.

Here's a song that is currently rocking my world and I am having anticipatory chills at several parts...the beginning where the guitar kicks in and Dio wails Woooh Ah ohhhh ooooooo

then especially the last part where they close out the song..

Look out! The sky is falling down!
Look out! The world is spinning round and round and round!
Look out! The sun is going black, black!
Look out! It's never never never coming back, look out!
LOOK OUT!!!

So awesome...

@Sidewinder Really? That's an interesting one. 🤔

Number 9...number 9..number 9...number 9...
Sidewinder · 36-40, M
@SumKindaMunster It gives me chills every time I hear it... Even backwards. "Turn me on, dead man." "Turn me on, dead man." Turn me on, dead man..."

@Sidewinder heard that a billion times, including the rough mix that made the rounds...

Something like that, it’s very hard to describe, but for me it’s like it’s sucking me into a different inner world where I can feel and dream and feel some more.
Indeed, music soothing the savage beast ( in all of us)!
For me…music is the mosaic of my being.

Not sure I really love it but the theme from Harry’s game by Clannad is chilling
uncalled4 · 56-60, M
Yes, it can be quite powerful.

Yup, that little moment between Justin Bieber going ‘oh ah wa ah oh ah oh’ and ‘I know you love me’ just gives me the chills. Also, the absolute genius in those opening words
pianoplayingsteve · 31-35, M
@SumKindaMunster yeah its very different. Illuminati probabably replaced him at 18

@pianoplayingsteve Him, Miley Cyrus and Brittany Spears have all been replaced with life like android replicas who do what they are told.

@SumKindaMunster for sure, the ‘strong Britney’ interview was strange
