Anyone who loves music will have at least a handful of track that whenever they are played, make your hair stand on end. I'll start the ball rolling with :

Sweet Harmony - Liquid
Thing That Dreams Are Made Of - Human League (League Unlimited Orchestra by Martin Rushent)*
Stage One - Space Manouvers
External Key - Audioholics
Children - Robert Miles
Telegraph Road - Dire Straits
Private Investigations - Dire Straits
The Last Resort - The Eagles

Plus a load more I can't think of off the top of my head...

  • The latter and really cool part of this track was used on Ski Sunday in the late 80's / early 90's

Hollow-Pantera

This part:

He as hollow as I alone
A shell of my friend
Just flesh and bone
There's no soul
He sees no love
I shake my fists at skies above
Mad at God...Mad...

He as hollow as I converse
I wish he'd waken from this curse
Hear my words before it's through
I want to come in after you
My best friend x2
Come back

This one, well it makes my hair stand on end, it makes my eyes well with tears and it brings a lump to my throat.
