About once every few months, I'll hear a song that I really like and get the tingly feeling in the back of my head/neck that lasts for about 5-10 seconds. Followed by a general sense of calm and feeling good overall. I believe this has happened for all of my adult life (past 20 yrs).

It seems like it's usually for songs that my parents played on our record player when I was a baby and/or kid. A song that maybe I've gone a while without hearing as an adult. Or a cover that I've never heard previously of one of those songs (has happened with covers of The Allman Bros 'Blue Sky' and that Petty/Prince version of 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps').

It doesn't happen with songs of my teenage years, which are some of my favorite music. I don't think that I'm able to force the feeling more often because the randomness of hearing a certain song is part of it.

I do like that some myself. Usually instead of calm and good, I get more melancholy.

Petty/Prince version of 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps


To be honest, I always preferred Jeff Healey's version

I grew up on a big lake in middle America and when I hear a certain song its like I am right back there and can feel the sun on my shoulders. God, I miss that place.

I have certain songs that cue happiness from back when as well. One is this song about the best State in the USA- Louisiana. LINK reminds me of this
