Best sound in the world? (windows, around, moving)

Glad you two liked it.


Jezer, the sound of a Vulcan's engines winding up is out of this world.

Guess that's another thing to add to my list of favorite sounds. lol

This is becoming a list of man made sounds, but I used to live in Fairford where the Concorde was being tested at the local airforce base.

I wouldn't descrbe it as the best sound in the world, but I've been close enough to tell you that it's the noisiest sound that I've ever heard.

BTW, I once saw three Concordes flying together. Pretty cool for a kid at the time- pretty cool full stop.

At the other end of the spectrum I have just been down the road from here and heard- nothing.

Total quiet.

Gorgeous.

Almost always, silence would be a preferred alternative to any man-made sounds, including 99.9% of what is called music these days. But I do like trains in the night. Here in South Texas, we have Great-tailed Grackles, which give towns a lovely jungle-bird sound. My favorite bird sounds are Yellow-headed Blackbird,

The worst sounds, in no particular order -- barking dogs, crying babies, music with a loud drum beat and/or no discernible melody, which is almost all of it.

Total quiet is great. That's why I love going to northern Ontario.

Another man made sound I love, is hearing the lake freighters in the Detroit river, sounding their fog horns as they round the bend.

The sound of four of them in a Lancaster is even more impressive.

Listening to the waves with the seagulls in the distance, while feeling the warm sunshine and ocean breeze. I also love being in the mountains and hearing a natural spring flowing. It is so peaceful. I also like listening to the rain.

Lying in bed with the windows open, listening to the wind moving through the trees. Very comforting.
