1. West Ham fans singing 'im forever blowing bubbles
2. The Kop singing your never walk alone
3. Rangers vs Celtic - mental crowd

Also things like Ross Kemps glue kids and Britains Pride thing tonight

You guys?

A full moon

Morrissey singing How soon is now right in front of me.Shiver and indeed quiver.

L'Oreal Extreme Hold.

Craig maskells goal and you'll never walk alone

my piss take answer was better, you're a tef failure.

Rocky III, IV and VI, at various parts.

jealousy is ugly.

1.England v Scotland game at wembley (Rous Cup)
2.Swindon play off final against leicester

Beating Argentina in WC2002.
many films, best example Shawshank.
Some music, like Hallelujah by Mr Buckley.

Leonard Cohen.

Actually I don't know if the original is better. It's not a song I know that much about. Apart from it's by Leonard Cohen. And I either hate it or love it depending on what mood I'm in.

buckley is good though.

Redgrave's last Olyimpic gold.
The first big powder run of a brand new season in the alps, only one-and-a-half months to go...

Spock's death in Star Trek II is pretty emotional. Needs of the many and all that. Poor Spock.

I'm a big LC fan but Jeff buckley's is better, as for the top 3 on the original post : gay;gay and gay. You should wash your mouth out thinking those are anything other than 3 things to make you puke. Now propose some ace stfc songs!

Whits and Lucien Sanchez singing Total Eclipse of the Heart to the backing track on a villa fan's phone on the way home from Wallsall last year.

I have the video somewhere......

Beating Charlton 1-0 away that season we got relegated from div1/championship/div2 (whatever you want to call it). Bit special that.

Jimmy Davis' Mum's speech at the Notts County game we won 4-1(?) was a bit hairs on neck in a random sort of way. Guess it took a lot of courage to speak in front of a stadium full of people. Didn't Igoe get sent off right at the end?

I'd say Invincibile's goal against Peterborough, and yeah I went pretty mental, but we weren't actually safe yet so it wasn't as special as people sometimes make out.

There are songs which have had that effect on me when I first hear them, but I'm the sort of idiot who listens to songs over and over again to the point where the effect is lost unless you're a bit pissed. Off the top of my head there's something about the Polyphonic Spree's Choral Happy Pop which has done that, Hold Me Now springs to mind.

I prefer the tree song.

The tree song is ace. I can sort of imagine singing it at Primary School assemblies and there being proper hand actions to trees growing.

Good shout on jimmy davis mum ben

First ever hole in one at Bowood.

First belt down the motorway after passing my DT.

First blowie (not giving one before some cunt pipes up).

Darren Clarke at K-Club.

Invincibile vs Peterborough.

Watching one of your mates coffin slide off into the flames. That sounds really really terrible but it was as surreal and engrossing as it was devastating.

Goran Ivanišević's 2001 Wimbledon win. Anybody who was against him just because he knocked out Henman is a knob. It's possibly the most recent example of someone achieving at the highest level of sport through pure passion and determination.

Wimbledon has seemed a bit shit since.

That pride of britain thing was crap. How can that mum get an award because her sons nearly beat someone to death??! Yes it was a hard decision to call the police on them, but she brought them up. She taught them right from wrong. Am I being too harsh?

Yep

Holding my son for the first time.

Watching the Airbus A380 fly over my house at 2,000 feet during this year's Farnborough Airshow.

Waiting for Paul Bodin to step up and take his penalty at Wembley 15 years ago.

Standing in a crowd of 4,000 Town fans all giving Calderwood at ovation as he jogged down to our end at the start of the game at White Hart Lane the following season.

Having to tell my sister her best mate was killed in a car crash.

Play off final.

Cutting someone who we knew out of a car who had been serving us dinner in the pub an hour before. She was lucky to live after hitting a tree at 75mph but is now severely disabled and lives in a care home.

Invincibile vs Peterborugh as DMR said

Rolling my car 3 times down the road was quite nerve wracking too!

Matthias Steiners' gold at Beijing 2008

Seeing both my son and daughter being born, cutting the cords and holding them for the first time...

Walking up the aisle to get married....

Watching my son get up and walk for the first time...

Both Wembley Playoff finals...

Mansfield away with 4000 other Town fans (in an end that should have held around half that!!) to see us win the Div 4 title...

Sporting wise

Tranmere PO Semi away in 93 (just as the Trannie fans were charging over to us, stopped and starting singing "Swindon")

A packed out Murrayfield/Hampden singing FOS,

McFadden's goal v French and Don's against England in 99.

The sound of Maskell's goal at wembley and the commentary "and that surely means the premier league for Swindon town now" (think that was Taylor's goal tho).

Nessun Dorma, sung by Pavarotti.
God Save Our Queen in the Luzhniki Stadium and then getting hit by a stray lighter.
Microlight flying.
Bodin's penno.

The first time I came up on e. I can still remmber how it changed my out look on life and the next morning when I woke up i looked back at my night and every hair on my body stood on end, I have  never been the smae since.

Hockadays wonder goal against England Keeper Shilton.

Brum v Swindon and the fight back

Anything by Supertramp............reminds me of holidays as a kid.

ecstacy pills

Fjortofts goal v Millwall..cc cup....going 2-1 up at liverpool in the prem and Parkins goal at Leeds are 3 footy ones that come to mind.

I dont really have one. Getting promoted at home to walsall i guess, or the superly duper ace song against mansfield

Beckhams free kick v Greece

ooh yeah and that. and watching kelly holmes win that gold and the geordie commentator going "YOU'VE WON IT KELLY YOU'VE WON IT". and when christine awooga won the 400m

that mansfield game was very good fun.

I'd like to add Stuart Pearce's celebration after scoring his penno in Euro 96

Hillsbrough Disaster the way fans united across the country.Non football the diana tributes and aftermath.

God im a happy person this morning..

Tranmere 93, as per jan.
Last 30 seconds of the RWC Final in 2003.
The moment my now wife was asked if she would take my hand (it probably was more nerve racking because she began giggling).

The Play Off final in 1993 didn't but that was because I felt physically drained after that game.

Football related moments of hairs....

Tranmere 93 at the final whistle
That penalty at Wembley by Bodin
but none match the feeling at Mansfield when after the final whistle Mansfield played Queen - We are the champions.

haha  god no
