Default Goosebumps YouTube Musical Videos?

I know we've all seen a youtube musical video that has left us either speechless or with goosebumps, what are some of your favorites?

I play uke so I'll start of with one of the legends who got me inspired to learn ukulele over 15 years ago - Troy Fernandez. Check out what he can do with only 4 strings from 1:04-1:24:
Palolo - Chino Montero, Troy Fernandez, Nathan Nahinu

Awesome.

The first time I heard Matt Andersen, I was completely blown away.

Relatively obscure guy from the Canadian province of New Brunswick ... huge in stature, and even bigger in talent.

What a voice!

Love this song, but not necessarily this version. In a hurry, so couldn't find the live acoustic version, but suffice it to say it came along at a particularly challenging time in my life, and the first time I heard it I became completely unglued. Steven Curtis Chapman, Cinderella

I feel mislead! The lack of a certain preposition in the title had me expecting a post based on R.L Stine's (in)famous series of books/nickelodeon tv series.
...or it could just be my age speaking

I was blown away with Jacobs Dream when I heard Allison Krause sing this song. Haunting, emotional and she puts everything into it!

I don't know about "goosebumps" - but when I heard this several years ago and learned the story behind this song, it certainly evoked a lot of emotions....

I agree. And what adds to the "goosebumps" is the fact that it's based on the true story of the Lost Children of the Alleghenies.

Here's the same session video as yours, but with the full story introduction by Allison and the songwriters, with photographs to boot:

Stuart Ducan's finger strumming on that ancient Martin (in Mountain Modal tuning, I think) also adds to the overall haunting effect of the song.

For me, without a doubt it's this one:

I generally like most older Springsteen, but here he's hungry and in top form. I'd hated to have followed this!
