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.
