For some it will be classical music. For others it will be rock. A lot of people say music makes them tingle inside. What is the mechanism behind this?
I reckon it causes the release of happy hormones too. But that would be for another question ....

Left arm pain or numbness is related to the heart sometimes and there are no real definitive tests other that an scopic exam to tell the difference. However sounds like your doc has ruled that out. That leaves nerve impingement. If you work out your shoulder areas quite a bit like swimming, volleyball or other arm motion that has wide arc movements the constant rubbing of the bone against the top of the joint in your shoulder can cause a bone spur to develop or just inflame the tendons enough that they place pressure on the nerve that runs down your arm. Sleeping constantly on that side of the body can also place additional stress on that area. Motrin three times a day for a couple of months, a one or two weeks regimen of prednisone, Ice and physical therapy sometimes help. Surgery may be an option later on if it doesn't get better. Ask you physician for a consult to an orthopedic surgeon they are the experts. X-rays, maybe MRI can help him visualize the problem. good luck

Ive had goose bumps from listening to certain music before.
Any time I go to a baseball game and hear the national anthem I always get shivers. I don't have a scientific answer.
The only thing I can think of is that its your body's way of expressing what going on in your brain. I'm sure some chemical is released or perhaps it is attached with another experience that caused the same affect.
Now I really want to know to!
Good question.

Your hair stands on end and you develop 'goose bumps' because there are tiny muscles attached to the hair follicles and they contract when you are frightened or cold.
This is a fight or flight response - often experienced "in the presence of the goddess" such as reading poetry, listening to music, anytime that you find yourself between worlds - this has been called "the crack in the world where the light gets in". It is a natural ecstasy, where you are both relaxed and seriously wide awake - ready to respond.
Arrector pili - a bundle of smooth muscle associated with each hair follicle. When smooth muscle contracts, causes the follicle which is normally positioned at a slant to take an upright position. Therefore, hair "stands on end".

maybe it's the release of 'happy' hormones because it connects to happy memories that the music generates or associates with.
