The Most Wonderful Sound In The World....

[Gilliangirl]

In response to David Henman's thread 'The Most Annoying Sound In The World', are there sounds that just send shivers up your spine (good shivers)?

I can think of a few..... nothing beats the sound of a smooth-running loud V-8 engine. I also LOVE the sound of helicopter blades as they warm up. And I love the sound of my cats purring in my ears when I wake up in the morning. Growing up in an army camp, the sound of the bugle playing Taps gets a mixed response from me (love/hate).

Oddly...silence. It is very rare as an urban dweller that I can find total silence. I'm talking about the kind of silence where you hold your breath and concentrate on the space between heartbeats.

Oh yeah, and a bitchin' knucklehead with straight, open pipes! LOL.

[Mooh]

(It has to be said) the sound of mutual simultaneous orgasm.

My wife, my kids, my dogs, the wind off Georgian Bay any time of the year...

TELECASTER.

Peace, Mooh.

[Starbuck]

My two year olds laughter for sure. When she really gets going it's like a machine gun, totally Infectious!

[Milkman]

Applause

The sound of light rain on a tent roof.
.......Oh yeah, and D-minor on a 12-string.........

[ronmac]

"Your new guitar is here..." :banana: :smile:

Sounds like Mooh's wife is fakin' it! (JUST KIDDING, Mooh! I couldn't resist :D)

Most of the sounds would probably involve sex or (and...?) a guitar.

Maybe I'm not guitarded enough yet, I'm in the "cat's purr" crowd :D

I love the sound of an engine revving up. Like a good sounding engine. Not a honda.

The sound of duct tape,... taping up Yoko Ono.

[Mooh]

Oh Gilliangirl, good one, wait 'til I tell the bride!

bagpipe...You need to ask?

"FedEx is here!" Is pretty good too (I'm expecting something from The 12th Fret this week).

Peace, Mooh.

[Stratin2traynor]

The sound of either of my kids laughing really, really hard. Not just a chuckle, but the big belly laugh they sometimes do.

Sappy, I know.

I second that in a big way!!

A very close second for me is: complete silence and then I add some pristinely recorded music played at a comfortable listening level. Then I just sit back and close my eyes and LISTEN.

Unfortunately, that doesn't happen very often.

[laristotle]

Mother nature in the middle of no-where.

[Mooh]

I like days like today when I can hear and taste the wind off Lake Huron, it reminds me of my mortality.

Peace, Mooh.

[ClintonHammond]

It's not tops of my list, but I love the sound of breaking glass.... Especially a BIG window pane....

There are a BUNCH of sounds that my wife makes that are above that on my list....

I've heard The Northern Lights.... that was pretty FN cool

LOL, if a Honda is not a "good engine", what fits your definition?

I gotta go with the small children laughing, my nieces and nephew crack me up with those whole-body laughs!

A great Fender Jazz tone that is deep and growly.
