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

2 am in the dark with just the lights of the stereo system and a pair of Apogee Diva's listening to Stevie Ray do "little Wing"...Damn i miss him!

Like the man said" twenty years where'd they go?"

The last time I had the full goose bumps, and I mean the way they used to come regularly way back when, was listening to "John Wayne Gacy Jr." by Sufjan Stevens on his album "Come On Feel The Illinoise."
At the time I was listening to a pair of Revel M-20s powered by Bel Canto eVo2i with my trusty Resolution Audio CD-50.
More recently I've had several minor events with Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds, "Abattoir Blues." This is a double cd of excellent music. Had to google Abattoir, it's a slaughterhouse.

Timrhu- had the same reaction the first time I heard that song. Eerie, beautiful, gripping. Good call.

Two nights ago, listening to a live version of Pink Floyd's "Any Colour You Like" from a 1975 ROIO (recording of unknown origin)called 'Echoes in the Gardens' (Boston garden)on a Mac laptop while watching the 'Visualizer.' Proof that it's the music, not the gear.
