songs that give you chills - Page 4

Nice list! Also, All the Things She Gave Me by Waterboys. Hey by the Pixies....the line "This is the sound the mother makes when the baby breaks" always gets me. Most of the songs on Murder Ballads by Nick Cave.

We used to play that song live.

Sober -Tool High Life - Counting Crows Whish You Were Here - Pink Floyed Galaxy - Blind Melon Its Not up to You - Bjork Behold the Nightmare - Smashing Pumpkins Something to Talk About - Badly Drawn Boy

You really need to go preview that lament. I'm not kidding about it being heart rending. Donald Riddell was a very famous fiddler and was the King's Piper. He wrote this for the funeral and he never wrote another song after this.

Did you give people chills?

Another one: Some Mother's Son by the Kinks.

Maybe but that was probably from the E.

John Prine - Sam Stone "There's a hole in daddy's arm where all the money goes..."

i heard it last year on mad men, but 'cup of sorrow' by george jones.

'scotland the brave', as was mentioned bagpipes have quite the captivating quality to them.

'lord lovats lament'-- i remember hearing it for the first time when i was 6 played by a piper at a family reunion, its the one and only time i've seen my grandfather anywhere near tears aside from my grandmothers funeral.
