Last time you felt that "tingling" sensation?

We've all experienced it (and this is in the context of listening to music). Name the song/track/moment when you last got goosebumps listening to music. For bonus points, tell us where you were and what system you were listening to. Here's mine:

Song: "Hotel California" from "When Hell Freezes Over" (live version)
Where: In my listening/living room
On What: Levinson 390S driving Levinson 436 monos into Wilson Sasha's via Transparent cabling
Exact moment: when that kick drum starts slamming in that piece, it was utterly amazing

When I realized what Springsteen's' "Into The Fire" was about. EVERY time I think of this song I get chills. Even now as I type. Heartfelt and sad. It is off "The Rising". Give it a listen. Especially sad with the 10th anniversary of 9-11 coming up.

Freedom is not free.

A 10 year old girl, Jackie Evancho, a finalist on "America's Got Talent" is just incredible! I just heard her over my computer speakers. She has the voice of a fully mature woman and uses it beautifully. I got chill's. This girl is really something special.

BTW the performance which really moved me was the first I saw where she sings O Mio Babbino Caro from Puccini's Gianni Schechi. (She is wearing a red dress).

I counted 8 times yesterday I got goosebumps listening to music on my stereo. It was a great evening. I hadn't listened too much in a while due to the summer heat. Maybe that was some of it; but the system is definitely dialed in. I got 'em from both CDs and Vinyl. Twice last night one song- The Raven. The low note at the end of the song put me over the edge the second time.
