The rumbling of a hungry child's stomach
Jail doors closing
Cars crashing
Women crying
Police sirens


Those are just the ones I use on my sleep machine to sooth me.

I like silence

My fav sounds are multiple pops from feeding specs slapping the surface with their tails.

Yes, nighttime silence.
I forgot that one.

...!

Like when a heart monitor goes silent. That's a good one, too.

a topwater strike
the sound of a bullet thumping the critter ( those who know, know...)
the sound of my air cooled v-twin putt'n down the road
the wife saying food is ready

really too many to list...

B-52 taking off while burning the water.

bacon frying
beer can opening
heron squawking
boat wide open throttle

Grandson making this enjoying moaning sound as he eats.
Bass exploding on topwater
4th of July Fireworks
Ford V8 motors with full length header, x-pipe, and throaty exhaust

Sitting in my screened in porch just before sunrise listening to the calls of the doves, cardinals, and other birds as they get their day started.

The sounds braid makes when you set the hook
Turtle Doves cooing
Cats purring
The sounds of your childs feet on a hardwood floor
Thunder storms
Formula one car going through the gears
Church Bells
Mercury 300 on cold start

And the one I would never sleep without. The sound of the $40 fan I have in my bedroom.

Rain “grey noise”. I can’t sleep without it. I can hear something as light as fizzing from an open coke can and it will wake me up. I have to drown out the noise.

From my early years. I was raised on an East Texas farm and remember laying in bed listening to the attic fan, the trains passing through, and the radio broadcast of the St. Louis Cardinals on my transistor radio. After all these years, I can still conjure up these sounds but I sometimes can’t remember something from last week. Weird.

From later years, the cold start of a radial aircraft engine, MotoGP bike at 17,000 rpm’s on the straight, and a 12 cylinder Ferrari motor at full throttle.

A baby laughing hard always makes me smile.

dove heading my way
a fan at night while sleeping
sound of a ball hit off a bat

Crickets chirping and frogs croaking. It reminds me of sleeping with the windows open as a boy living just off the water at Caddo.

The slight slipping sound my drag makes when I set the hook hard on a fish.

There is no better feeling than hitting a baseball perfectly in the sweet spot of a bat. You don't even feel it vibrate. I love baseball.

Chicago might be a good place for you.

Any Van Halen solo , rain with thunder in the distant , 240 popping off

Hearing the woods wake up from 16’ up in a treestand.

A/C running
Slot Machines Hittin
Train rolling down the line

Nothing worse than the wood vibrating your hands when you shank one just a little.

Big block with a big cam and open headers Idling
Mercury 2.5L drag at 10,500 rpm
Harley shovelhead idling with drag pipes

My wife during intimate moments.

Loons
Geese in flight

Back in the day , when I lived in the Panhandle , A covey of quail flushing and the cackle of a pheasant busting from cover,


MO

A bass boat taking off on a still morning.

Kids out playing in their yard communicating verbally face too face and laughing the whole time having fun.
Birds chirping and singing.
My daughters voice.

kids jumping and splashing around in a backyard pool

train at night in the distance

laying a steak down on hot grill

splash from the trailer as you back into the water at the ramp

crack of the bat at a ballpark

sound of a whiperwill at night

cardinal chirping as you troll down the bank

boat running up to full throttle

fighter jet flying overhead

water rushing around your feet when you cross a small stream

elk bugle at dusk or dawn

A summertime favorite sound is a chilled perfectly ripened watermelon when you make the first cut and it makes that "pop" and splits open

Lately, the sound of my knees popping indicating that they might be unlocking....

The sweet erotic moan and squeals when getting a hotty off

I agree with Skeeter. Wife sounds are the greatest.

1) wife sounds as above
2) old school muscle car ( think 427 Cobra or 426 Hemi )
3)Aluminum bat to ball when my son was playing HS and college
4) reading/hearing my heart beat when doing my deep breathing exercises
5) nature sounds on a lake while catching bass and no other oats around

Cicadas in Summer
Quail covey call
Baby laughing
Mama cow bellowing for her calf…calf answering
Praise songs on Sunday morning.

Water running down a river that has rocks
Beer can opening
Birds right at sunrise
Fan at night
Taking off from the ramp
Firewood burning
Rain on a tin roof
Pads popping on a Friday night
And best sound of all, a blocked punt or FG

Fairfield red pulling drag back in the day
Military jet hitting afterburners

Rain on tin roof with thunder…
Sound of a boat going over lake riding on the plug…
Red wing black birds singing in the bushes while fishing…
Merc 4 Stroke cold start…

Enjoy hearing the coyotes carry on in the evening.

Nice to see some real answers, and not all jokes.

Yes, coyotes or wolves in the rain is/are great!

...!

Wolves and rain

Top Fuel Anything

A good long phart.

A successful phart that is. At my age, you can never trust a phart.

That extreme high pitch scream of a car going around the track at 12,000 rpm.

The sound of a one knocker spook getting molested

Chris and Mo hit on some I can wholeheartedly agree with in the sounds of the woods waking up while you're sitting still with heightened senses is simple invigorating to the soul. Chris said this one.

Sound of loons over the water. Living and fishing in Maine I've heard it hundreds of times in person. And also the sound of geese flying over. Mo said these.

I'll add a few from nature:

The sound of wood ducks calling and the rushing wind sounds overhead as they rocket right over you.

In the deep large woods the furtive sound of a pileated woodpecker is so primeval.

A pair of hawks buzzing the tree tops calling out trying to flush a squirrel

Wind in the treetops when you're in the big woods but especially in big pines.

And I agree with the coyotes singing on a very still, cold, winter evening and the startup with one over in one area letting go with a long low howl and then off in another direction another answers and then the pups of the year get all excited and let go with their yipping but the best is the long low howl by a biggun.

Manmade:

The lap on an aluminum boat when your sitting still and there's a chop on the water and even underway with a trolling motor but sitting still is the best.

The blast of a shotgun in the big woods and the way it echoes for several seconds.

And as mentioned several times the lope of a heavy cammed V-8 sitting at idle and in that same vein the lope of a Merc 2-stroke starting it up on hose muffs. Just too cool !

I like the sound out here in the woods when my neighbors are mowing, they're a long way off.

Since I wear hearing aids and all they do if amplify every sound I'm partial to just plain silence... Unplug the hearing aids, crack a beer and listen to nothing... Dan

same here, already quiet out here but with no aids in the quiet is awesome. just sit on the patio sometimes and chill.

I forgot, I like the sound of "money being counted and bills being swiped across each other on a table.

...!

Merlin V12.

IRL?
I like the rip of an F1 at 20k.



I like when someone sings the national anthem the way its supposed to be sung.

favorite sounds for the last month...

It can be best described as stirring of mac & cheese.

said the only liberal ever

So in your opinion how is it supposed to be sung? As long as it's respectful and they try their best all that matters to me

The sound an outboard makes when after a long tournament of running your livewells all day and you finally decide its time to head to the weigh in. The best sound happens when that motor barely turns over at a sluggish rate and then all of a sudden we got spark and ignition. Heartbreak and exhileration all at the same moment.

Speaking of the woods waking up in the tree stand, how about setting there in the pitch dark and hearing deer crunch on those golden death nuggets and the occasional doe hoofs smacking aroud trying to protect her corn.

Horns rattling from deer fighting really near.

Also having some other guys wife in his boat asking him what i'm throwing, and they should get some of them.

This

Daylight easing up on a shell reef and hearing trout popping shrimp. No sound like it.

I’m aware of this sound and I concur. Kind of a slosh-slosh. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I love hearing Joe fall down. Always makes me smile.
