Top 5 shivers....

...down the spine songs. (Sorry, another music top 5!)

Pantera - Cemetery Gates.
Soundgarden - Fell On Black Days.
Temple Of The Dog - Hungerstrike. <<< 2 of the best voices from Seattle together.
Alice In Chains - Would?
Boston - More Than A Feeling. <<< Surely the best hard-rock tune ever written? Must be the full-length version.
Rodge

Anything by Celine Dion. She scares me shitless.

Oh, you said Top 5 shivers....
Stuntman

The song with the creepiest intro:

Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath

another couple of tunes with foreboding intros:

AC/DC - Hell's Bells
Masters of Reality - Theme for the Scientist of the Invisible (yes, really), which then blends into the next song, Domino
Honourable mention - The Doors - Riders On The Storm

and a couple of intros that then explode into life...

Blur - Song 2
Nirvana - Nevermind
Honourable mention: Motorhead - Ace Of Spades
Matt

Citizen Erased by Muse
Live Forever by Oasis
Milk It by Nirvana
Say it Aint So by Weezer
Rock and Roll Suicide by Bowie

1) Love Reign O'er Me: The Who (5 minutes, 48 seconds of sh*t yourself terrifying beauty.)
2) Comfortably Numb: Pink Floyd (Like Love Reign O'er Me but less so. Just.)
3) Stairway To Heaven: Led Zeppelin (Cliché I know, but who cares?)
4) Feel Flows: The Beach Boys (Have you heard this song?)
5) November Rain: Guns 'N Roses (The outro... Sodding hell.)

Aussie Floyd's version of Comfortably Numb is still the greatest song I've heard live.

All your choices are great but these 3 are among my favourites of all time.

I could never just list 5 though I'd add:

Your Silent Face - New Order
Atmosphere - Joy Division
Alive - Pearl Jam
Hurt - Johnny Cash
Down in a Hole (Unplugged) - Alice in Chains
She is Suffering - The Manics
They All Have Abandoned Their Hopes - Fishbone

The songs that we covered most in the 2 main bands I was in send shivers down my spine and make me smile at the same time due to the associated memories : Black by Pearl Jam and Die Laughing by Therapy.

I could go on and on (and often do)...

You could pick any number of tracks from Quadrophenia - a superb and amazingly underrated album. But some of the many that do it for me are:

Massive Attack - Safe From Harm
Bomb The Bass - Winter In July
Black - Feel Like Change
Who - Won't Get Fooled Again
Grace Jones - Walking In The Rain
Faithless - Insomnia
Madonna - Justify My Love
This Mortal Coil - Song to the Siren
Past Present Organisation - Beautiful
Talvin Singh - Traveller
Stanley Clarke - Desert Song
Weather Report - A Remark You Made

And this ...
