When you have Frisson, you begin to have goosebumps and have an adrenaline rush on your skin due to how good a certain sound or song feels like to you. Its almost like feeling or reacting differently to a pattern in music or feeling a specific song in reality. This can be found in really deep thinkers, especially those or admire an object or person.

When a person has Frisson it can be described as looking at an individual that you like alot and when that beat or pattern you love comes in you get those goosebumps and it can also create a strong reaction that breaks any form of communication. It can also refer to a "Musical Orgasm" as people like to call it. You also get very mad if someone interrupts you from your glorious moment.
