"Goosebumps" is a pop song written by Terry Britten and BA Robertson and originally released by Robertson in January 1979 as the first single from his debut album Initial Success. The single flopped, but later that year, Australian pop singer Christie Allen covered the song, which peaked at number 3 on Kent Music Report in Australia and sold over 60,000 copies[1]

The song was his first release on Asylum Records after they signed him due to the strength of this song on a demo tape he sent to their parent company Warner Communications.[2]
