Songs/Parts of songs that give you chills — Page 2

I have a little list of them, so bear with it.

Les Miz- Between "Red and Black" and "Do You Hear..." when Enjolras sings "They will come when we call."

Les Miz- "One Day More" right before the marching starts and Javert comes on..."the time is now, they day is here."

Les Miz- "Bring Him Home"...all of it

Les Miz- "Javert's Suicide" after he jumps and the orchestra kicks in with the "Stars" orchestration.

The Wedding Singer- "If I Told You" when the duet takes place at the end of the song. Stephen Lynch's voice just gives me chills at that moment.

Man of La Mancha- "The Impossible Dream" at the key change when sung by Brian Stokes Mitchell.

Spring Awakening- "Touch Me" from the moment Skylar starts his little thing through the end of the song.


OK, I think I'm done for now.

Although this is certainly also due in part to the staging, the transition from Mary Louise Wilson's older Big Edie into Christine Ebersole's young Big Edie during "The Girl Who Has Everything" as the house splits and Christine is revealed... my god. What a moment.

I love the end of You Can't Stop the Beat in Hairspray after the VonTussles sing their part and the music goes out and everyone's singing a cappella. That whole number is just an explosion of energy.

"Petrified" from Taboo....every time I saw it, I got chills.

The ending of 'Close Every Door' from Joseph. I love that!

Marin Mazzie singing "Back to Before" in RAGTIME...the first song to ever give me chills in the theater (and RAGTIME is still my all-time favorite Broadway show).

i knwo where i've been, and for some reason, GMB reprise.
and. like seaweedjstubbs said, the end of YCSTB when everyones singing a cappella
also motormouth's solo in YCSTB!!! AMAZING!

The Ballad of Sweeney Todd (opening) from the San Francisco Philharmonic, the first time the orchestra explodes and the the chorus sings, "Swing your razor high, Sweeney!"

On that same recording Patti Lupone and George Hearn during the final scene. Especially, "Yes I lied 'cause I loved you! I'd be twice the wife she was! I love you! Could that thing have cared for you like me?"

The end of Point of No Return in Phantom when he a Christine sing, "The bridge is crossed to stand and watch it burn. We've passed the point of no return"

Phantom overture

On the Beauty and the Beast OBCR the last minute of Be Our Guest, when Gary Beach says "'til you shout" CHILLS

Sunday in the Park With George. During Sunday when Mandy Patinkin sings, "bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum" to Dot

Into the Woods, the Witch, "Careful the tale you tell, that is the spell. Children will listen"

Edwin Drood -the whole song Garden Path to Hell

The entire scor of Light in the Piazza

The Les Miz overture

The part of No One is Alone from Into the Woods that goes "Sometimes people leave you..." So beautiful.
In Wicked, when the whole cast joins for the first time in Emerald City, it's just a really lovely, exciting moment.
I know it isn't exactly the most beautiful moment, but towards the end of Pandamonium in Spelling Bee, when it all just kind of explodes into such energy and crazyness, I got chills out of sheer excitment.

The scene right before the light in the piazza, and that song

In Spring Awakening, when Ilse starts to sing the second "spring", Moritz puts his head on the microphone. I love it.

Seconding the last notes of "Being Alive" TheaterAddict.

-When Raul (I'm using just his bobby because I've never heard anyone else do it this way) says "Mock me with praise" in "Being Alive" and pratically shouts the "Mock." Goosebumps.

- In The Last 5 Years in the middle of "Goodbye Until Tomorrow/I Could Never Rescue You" when the cheerful, upbeat song switches to Jamie saying how he's moving out.

"Another Winter in a Summer Toun" from Gret Gardens. It set me up to realy give me chills in the lst few second of the play.

Clara's Interlude - The Light in the Piazza
Around the World - Grey Gardens
The Music and the Mirror - A Chorus Line
