What songs give you goosebumps when you listen to them?

^^^ Agreed. Then stack that amazing voice three times and layer her sibling's voice, and you've got Enya before Enya was a thing. She was a pretty good drummer, too. 

As you listen to this, keep in mind there is no Autotune, no thickening plugins or exciters. Just some plate reverb, LA-2A and a vintage Neumann.

This song was originally recorded by the Toronto band Klaatu, who many thought were the Beatles incognito. They weren't, but clearly were Beatles fans as evidenced by the Mellotron flutes, slapback slide guitar, Lennon-esque vocal backed by some "whoa whoa yeh"s.

Eric Clapton's "Let It Rain" when the outro lead takes a pause, then comes back in at the 3:47 mark. To me that is the best lead ever played in Rock-N-Roll history. The tone, the feel, the phrasing, all the way to the end of the song. I remember hearing it for the first time, I was floored. Still get chills when I hear it today.  

Hey Grem, Let it Rain is a great song.

I do believe that Stephen Stills plays that noodle around the 1:30 mark.

I think it is very unique, and almost out of place, but the producer left it in.

buried though it is.

Elliott Smith's "From A Basement On A Hill"  ....yea the whole album keeps me skin all prickly and a sense that somewhere in his songs lay the answers to all of my questions about the universe.  Rock music has lost majority of it's best representatives and now sits abandoned, covered in vines and wasp nests.   

Well, there is still Keith Richards and Brian Wilson which is proof that life expectancy is completely counter intuitive
