Why music gives us chills - not sure after reading article

Those crazy Germans with their new agey studies...how cushy does this job sound? Anyway the article mentions that the following 3 things bring chills on: 1. Change from quiet to loud 2. enterance of solo voice or instrument 3. contrasting voices in two singers (harmony).

They don't actualy give you any facts about what the mechanism of getting the chills is. They only mention that people who are reawarded oriented experience chills more frequently then people who are thrill/adventure-seekers. Also, people who interpret the music better, and give it emotional meaning experience chills more...YOU NEED A FUCKING STUDY FOR THIS? They say music can also lesson labor pains, bring out strong memories, aliviate depression, and reduce the need for sedation during surgery...yeah, i'd like to see someone actualy try the last one. Getting chills from music is associated with increased blood flow to the brain areas associated with food, sex, and drugs...it's all the same area, they make it sound like it's 3. THIS ARTICLE BLEW! The title is misleading, and it's not very informative. It doesn't tell anything that people don't already know, if they stop and think about it.
