In Don McLean's "American Pie" - the whole song is fantastic, but the part that always gets me and gives me really intense chills is:

"I met a girl who sang the blues, and I asked for some happy news, but she just smiled and turned away."

For the record, I know that it's believed that line is referencing Janis Joplin, but that's not why that line gives me chills, I'm pretty sure.
