The wails of despair from my crushed enemies women, and the sound of rain when I'm in bed...
Rain on a caravan roof. Went on holiday to Norfolk when I was about 10, snuggled into my sleeping bag, only sound was this gentle drumming, dad made me toast and tea, I was just so content...
Opening bars of a song (any song) that you so want a band to play when your at a gig..
+1 princejohn though 😳

Ooooh, can I add another then? The sound of a storm lashing at a tent in the mountains. I remember camping out in the wilds somewhere North West of BYC some years back as a storm hit. Battened down the hatches (Terra Nova Quasar) and just listened. That smug feeling of being safe, warm and dry with the ever so slight sense of "what if...." that comes from knowing how little is between you and the elements.
Waves on the beach is probably best but honourable mentions for kettle going on and Triumph Trident.
are you guys for real? so much testosterone in the room..
Rockabilly radio. Nuff said.
And my tuppence worth:
The pop of a mushroom stalk being snapped off.
🙂
Honda 6 cylinder 250 sounds awesome
A Gardner 6LW on tick over
The B&M howl.
A telecaster played through a deluxe reverb
nature... waves, thunder, rain, silence, babies laughing, trees falling, leaves rustling, puppies playing, waterfalls, whales singing in the ocean, birdsong....
then the sound of my tyres crashing though it all 😈
The wails of despair from my crushed enemies women
"Conan! What is best in life?" "To crush your enemies -- See them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women!"
Zulu 11 has to win the prize for apparently being the most ridiculously cliched macho man in the world. He loves guns, chainsaws and fighter planes, but hey he has a sensitive side too. 😆

A road or touring bike on tarmac.
The silence you get when bunnyhopping with a tail wind.

The sound of the school bell at the end of the day!!
Standing on Pennines moors with the wind rattling around you, its what brought me to Rossendale
Oyster Catchers at night
Loud freehubs.
The sound of waves on the beach
yes,but more so the muffled boom of big waves breaking which you can hear before you get to the beach/ over the dunes for a surf- the anticipation mixed with trepidation (how big are they??!)is ace...
Loud freehubs.
I just don't get this...I love to 'run silent' on a bike.
My own heartbeat. It's just kind of reassuring to hear it...
good callOyster Catchers at night
The sound of the garden gate closing,home.
My son playing guitar .
The music that stops me in my tracks ,and time travels me back.
At night,camping near signpost corner ( IOM ),and hearing all the wannabees giving it a go .

Ahh, the Vulcan standing on its tail party piece; wonderful to behold.
Curlew's, definitely, rain on the roof on a stormy night, and ear splitting thunder a fraction of a second after the lightning.
Had that happen so close one night as I was watching out of my bedroom window that the air crackled around me like touching an old CRT tv tube, and my hair stood on end! Actually struck a house around 100 yds away 😯 Scary close.

Cicadas on a warm night somewhere sunny
The whooshing/whirring noise a really good set of road bike wheels make when at speed
A V8 engine
The sound of complete silence- its so rare
Crickets.
No way. not motherfrigging sodding noisy bastard crickets. Especially not right outside your window at 3am.
However, the sound of a sweetly-struck cricket ball, especially when you're the one holding the bat - that's a nice noise...
Not many crickets in the UK because it's too bloody cold!!!

Rich_s - MemberUncontrollable giggling from a 2 year old when being tickled.
Or the pinging noise when I gave him that bell for the bike 😀
He looked proper pleased with himself little tyke 😉
My house sounds like the tropics all the time with crickets chirruping away - that is until I feed them to my tarantula's and then it's all quiet 🙂
Best sound is also a Ducati MotoGP bike - or Vulcan on take off or Spitfire on a fly-past. Sorted.
The battle of Britain flight flying over my grans house when all the blokes recognised the noise of many Merlins and rushed outside to see it
