Why does awe-inspiring music create goosebumps?

I did a little research on goosebumps and found that it is used sometimes in the fight-or-flight response, and is also used to insulate our skin to preserve heat.

Is there a logical reason why music (which has nothing to do with either of those responses) can also create this affect?

Side note: I get them almost every time I listen to Dream Theater and Liquid Tension Experiment.

Thank you. :)
