Parts of Vanessa's songs that give you goosebumps

[Patricius]

1.) The ending of "San Francisco": "And I know what you did in San Francisco." I like how it fades out.
2.) The beginning of Papa: the "hard" part. From time to time, it's a nice little break from other stuff I play.
3.) The bridge of "Afterglow"
4.) Not really a goosebump effect but just a little pep: the intro of "Nolita Fairytale"
5.) The "With you all I know is I'm coming home"~Outro of "Home"
6.) The bridge of "All I Ask"
7.) The beginning of "London" (The one from the Hotel Cafe performance)
8.) The intro and ending of "Carousel"

Wreckage.

Totally forgot about "The Wreckage" for some reasons it's been a while since I haven't heard it. It's one of the songs that most affects me emotionnally, though.

It's one of my favs.  One of the many songs that she has written that I think "Did she read my diary or something??"
Call me weird or morbid, but I think about just crashing my car all the time.  It really could be so easy... >

In More Than This the part when she sings: "The trees grow so thick you can barely see through/But the forest bestows the simplest of truths"

The introduction to 'Come Undone', the entirety of 'Half A Week Before the Winter', 'The Wreckage' and 'She Floats' - especially the end, the bridge of 'All I Ask',  Also, the 3:27 mark and onwards from 'More Than This'. I also really, really, really love the introduction to 'White Houses' that Vanessa does live. It's absolutely beautiful.

"morning sting" - "can't cut a girl in bloom" stops. my. heart.

There are plenty of moments in vanessas songs that give me chills but some are just over the top:

the end of rinse (when the orchestra and the band are rising up to there full strength)
the bridge of morning sting (cover me now ... (sounds angelic  ^^))
more than this -> and the trees ...
sway (the entire song (can't move while listening to it))
the chorus of Faces
HAWBTW (the whole song)

She's incredible. The more I think about in which songs I am blown away I realize that it happens in almost every song at least once ^^
she's the best ^^

1. Fools Like Me: the bridge, "I always knew, somehow always knew."
2. London: when she sings, "Wait for it, wait for it, oooh."
3. Where The Streets Have No Name: the beginning piano instrumental.
4. Wanted: at the end when she starts singing all the lines beginning with, "More than you'll..."

Probably tons more I just can't recall right now.

The One: "...some melodies are best left undone.."
All I Ask: "No one lent a hand, no one laid a look upon me
Invisible to everything but blame
No one cared to tell, no one dared to believe in anything
And left me to drown in this pain."
Private Radio: "..there's a part of me no one will ever leave be."
Rinse: "And if she runs away she fears she won't be followed
what could be the worse than leaving something behind
and as the depth of oceans slowly become shallow
it's loneliness she finds...
if only he was mine"
Paradise: "As darkness quickly steals the light that shined within her eyes,
She slowly swallows all her fear and soothes her mind with lies.
Well all she wants and all she needs are reasons to survive.
A day in which the sun will take her artificial light, her light."
Best Behavior in its entirety.
Morning Sting: "Picture perfect, she'll follow his icy politic."
