It doesn't mean you are special. It happens to everyone when we hear a song that evokes an emotional response. Lol. I mean seriously? These were questions I was asking when I was like 5.

The link is working now. Good! Then I must be a very special person because I more than get goosebumps, I've devoted my life to music and audio research and reproduction, even to the point of creating my own playback technology.
A thousand thanks for this OP. This phenomenon has happened to me all my life, with different pieces of music, Madame Butterfly's solo in Un Bel Di Vedremo, Vaughn Williams The Lark Ascending, Springsteen's guitar solo in Because the Night, Ernest Gold's Exodus, to name a few. It's going to happen again in a minute because I am listening to Dvorak's String Quartet, No. 12 in F, "The American", lento.
I thought that this experience was a weirdness unique to me as an individual. I was never able to describe it to another person. It's wonderful to find out that others have the same reaction and that it actually has a name, a French name like "frission." I remember reading an article on it that said that some 40-50% of people have it, but apparently I can't spell it well enough to find the article via an internet search.
It seems that human brains are not all wired the same. I think that those of us who have this capacity get an extra treat in life.

What I find is that some songs/singers do and most don't. The Toys do it for me as does much Tchaikovsky.

I mean it happens to everyone when they hear a certain song or whatever. Music is powerful.
There is a distinction to be made between knowledge and appreciation of music, and knowledge of scales run up and down on the piano, thumb under, the torture that this is, and this specific neurological/physiological phenomenon, experienced by some but not all.
I haven't arrived at the correct wording to express this, but suffice it to say that I note among some in the U.S. population a tendency to deny that individual people have innate differences and a tendency to insist, against all evidence, that all of us are all the same or should be.

Interesting I always wondered why it occurred to me..

I think the vast majority of people have heard a song that has given them goosebumps. This doesn't mean you are special at all. Lol.
Vestibular sensations are not nearly as neat as kinetic... to include prognosticating abilities..There is a distinction to be made between knowledge and appreciation of music, and knowledge of scales run up and down on the piano, thumb under, the torture that this is, and this specific neurological/physiological phenomenon, experienced by some but not all.

Generally speaking, most people share the ability to be stimulated by sounds, sights, scents, tastes, etc.

Dummy, I just said that. Apparently, those who experience this phenomenon are different neurologically from those who don't. This is not a discussion that involves anyone being "special." It's a discussion of those who have a trait and those that don't have it.

Wow. What a miserable bitch, but anyways, maybe you should read the OP title again because it certainly does state "special" in there.
