"Frisson (French for 'shiver') is a sensation somewhat like shivering, usually caused by stimuli other than cold. It is typically expressed as an overwhelming emotional response combined with piloerection (goosebumps). Stimuli that produce a response are specific to the individual."

That was just a small excerpt from this page, I'd highly recommend reading the whole thing.

I just found out about this particular word today. I get this exact feeling when I'm listening to certain music. I think you can get it from other things as well, but music seems to be the one that most people can relate to. I was just wondering if any of you guys have experienced it before, and if you do, do you experience it often?

Honestly I'm a bit curious to see what gives this feeling for other people, so post a piece of music or anything that's given you this certain feeling of a rush recently.

Here's one that almost always does it for me

despite how much music i listen to, i don't think it has anything to do with it, though - sometimes it happens just randomly

the best way i can describe it is how tony soprano described fainting (though it's not negative to me and doesn't involve panic/fainting/depression etc) "ginger ale in your skull"

it feels like a can of soda or something was popped open and warmth floods your body - it's really weird

last happened to me on saturday and lasted maybe an hour or so

Weird, I get the same thing but it feels cold. Like an ice cube is falling down my spine and then suddenly moves to my limbs.
I usually get it late at night when I need to sleep.

You take pride in stealing thread ideas don't you, OP?
