Songs that give you Goosebumps

[Sarah G]

Every year at Christmastime, I hear this song and it brings tears to my eyes. Her voice is so freaking beautiful and you know, it's the time of year..

Not a song, but a band. Our band. The Royal Marines. This week is the annual ceremony of Beating the Retreat on Horseguards Parade in London and it is the turn of the RMs.
These guys really give me goose bumps, especially when we parade with them. Nothing quite like marching behind a band like this:

Joan Baez has a voice that is timeless...I love her rendition of Josh Ritter's song "Wings...

...And at last we saw some people
Huddled up against
The rain that was descending like railroad spikes and hammers
They were headed for the border
Walking and then running
And then they were gone into the fog but Anne said
Underneath their jackets she saw wings

The water is wide, I can't cross over
and neither I have wings to fly
give me a boat that can carry two
and both shall row - my love and I

Now love is gentle, and love is kind
the sweetest flower when first it's new
but love grows old, and waxes cold
and fades away like morning dew

There is a ship, she sails the sea
she's loaded deep as deep can be
but not as deep as the love I'm in
I know not how I sink or swim

The water is wide, I can't cross over
and neither I have wings to fly
give me a boat that can carry two
and both shall row - my love and I
and both shall row - my love and I

Just one of many songs that give me goosebumps.



YouTube - Stevie Wonder OVERJOYED

Oh my gosh! I love this song..... I mean you really can't imagine how much. And this is a far better clip than the one I have stored. If I get married by the end of the year, this will certainly be my wedding song. Totally love my fiance' and this song pretty much does it for both of us...

New goosebumps song for me. I'd heard the song and loved it, but not seen the video. It works for me.
