Musical Orgasm
 

Musical Orgasm

There are a lot of 'shiver' moments in songs that I love. What I mean is, the music hits some kind of crecendo or little part where all the pieces come together so perfectly that is sends a shiver across my shoulders, or sometimes, a tear to my eye. I absolutely LOVE these. A musical orgasm, if you will.

I'll list some of my shiver moments if you'll share yours! And please, don't feel like you have to submit anywhere near as many as I have :-) Perhaps, just as you come across them while listening to your music, you could do us all the favor of posting them here!

Wow... I guess there are very few people that experience musical orgasms...

Come on people, you have to get in touch with your musical sexuality or else you'll never truly enjoy music, and be a disappointment to all your partners!

I have some.

The silent part, Tool = Schism

The last two minutes, Mudvayne = World So Cold

The whole song, SlipKnoT = IOWA

Just a the first drum beats begin, Pink Floyd = Wish You Were Here

When Robert Plant begins to sing, Led Zeppelin = No Quarter

(whiny noise) Radiohead - fake plastic trees 4:16 --its the pre-orgasm noise

Damn I love Beth Gibbons :up:

Tool - Lateralus:

"With my feet upon the ground I lose myself
between the sounds and open wide to suck it in,
I feel it move across my skin." ...and so on...

I too, love that part in Lateralus.

The soft sort of flying type keyboard sounds in comfortably numb.

Also, that moment when all the building up just stops and the quiet piano starts up, between waiting for the worms and stop right at the end of the wall.

Björk - Hyper-Ballad and Pagan Poetry

yeah, i know the feeling
though i don't remember them really... :(

well, here's a few:

"Fluit(?) solo" - Bran Van 3000 - Astounded - 4:28

"Guitar solo" - Counting Crows - Goodnight Elisabeth - 2:48 (not really orgastic)

"Not really proud on this one ;)" - Duran Duran - Ordinary World - 3:30

"Back to basic" - Supertramp - The Logical Song - 2:56

maybe i'll think of more

"Soon, oh soon the light,
Pass within and soothe this endless night
And wait here for you,
Our reason to be here."

Yes - Gates of delirium.

Funny Maxine Brown

Smashing Pumpkins - Muzzle [when it all comes together bit =\]

Bran Van 3000 - Discosis - instrumental part (piano)

Groove Armada - Edge Hill - when the strings tune in

John Williams - Luke and Leia - last 30 seconds or so

Guiseppe Verdi - Grand March - The melody fanfare type thing throughout the whole song (gonna play that too! :p)

James Barnes - Trail Of Tears - about 5:03 (when the timpani comes in)

Nobuo Uematsu - Battle With Griever - Flute Soli and Strings Soli

Brian Balmages - Sound Prisms - the fanfares at the "sound explosion" measures, before the allegretto and the 2nd explosion. (that's a really bad description, I know :P)

Robert W. Smith - The Maelstrom - the part before the coda

Pink Floyd - Great Gig In The Sky - Piano Solo at the beginning

The chorus - Hoobastank - The Reason; I love the way the strings add such a dynamic approach that fits musically with the lyrics as well... :D

"Have you seen junior's grades?" - Van Halen - And The Cradle Will Rock

Time position 3:43 - Metallica - Ride The Lightning; Just the switch that the band plays when they're in the riff and Kirk's in his solo; It all just goes insane after that... :D
