I get chills when I listen to some music - I thought that was universal, or at least commonplace. Just how unique is getting chills supposed to be that it might be a marker for a "unique" brain?
Also, not quite the same but they have a long running series about music with a powerful emotional impact. I mention it because it's good and people might be interested. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b008mj7p
For me Hot Tuna, Asleep at the Wheel and Alison Krauss with Union Station. Jefferson Airplane and the Dead live many years ago. Some of Alison Krauss's new work Windy City.
I did get chills when listening to specific songs when I was in my 20s. Now 37 I havent really had it happen to me since.
Funnily enough, it was a song from the swedish band Kent. Which some say is inspired from radiohead. And a radiohead song was used as an example in the article.
I actually listened to the Radiohead song, and immediately felt it was a bit familiar to the kind of music that used to give me the chills.
