Which song gives you goosebumps?

Mad World is great, but I still find the line "so if I decide to waiver my chance to be one of.. the hive." very poetic.. (Drive, Incubus)

Stormy Monday is great, but I've played it 1000+ times and maybe heard 2 people connect with the words. I'm waiting for a true diva to emerge that can actually sing these days to try it. (Gloria Lynne was one of my favs.)
 
Machine Head - A Farewell To Arms
"Soldiers are dead, and children have bled. The silence is numb. What have we become?" - For me, this quote says it all. Fantastic song, essentially says that mankind must destroy war before war destroys mankind.

Harry Chapin - Cat's In The Cradle
I'm 43. Really listened to the lyrics the other day for the first time. Really struck me. Allowed me to draw parallels between the song and my life. Made me think about what my life would be like if I'd continued my on-the-road employment with a large defense contractor, instead of deciding to find something local. My daughter is almost 3 and is an amazing little girl. I'm not missing any of it. I made the right choice.
