We've done this topic for smells. (Hi, Marissa. ) Now list the sounds that you love or hate.

I'm listening to a car alarm at the moment.

Favorites:
- Mac voices, especially Stevie's, and Ella Fitzgerald's as well
- The ocean
- Running/falling water

Least Favorites:
- car alarms, sirens
- Loud birds
- Endlessly barking dogs or crying babies
- Other people with gas


- Jake

[GypsySorcerer]

Favorites:
Any water sound, especially ocean waves and rain
Harps
Snow falling (Not a sound, I know, but it's so tranquil and quiet)
Church bells


Least Favorites:
Screeching birds, especially in the AM
Jarring alarm clock sounds
Fingernails on a chalkboard
Programmed songs on keyboards (from a kid I used to babysit who kept this annoying song playing all day)

Edit: How could I forget thunder? I'm easily startled, so I hate it.

Somehow you reminded me of a couple.
- The opening beats of Stand Back live as a favorite
- The noise of a crowded schoolbus as a least favorite (WORSE than nails on a chalkboard, IMO)

These are right on.
And you reminded me, I hate when people yawn with their voices! Hate hate hate.

And tell me you didn't buy a house. Will you have roommates?

[darklinensuit]

Least favorite addition:
Really perky & lengthy TV show theme songs.
Think of the old horrid TGIF shows on ABC.

- Jake

[Hawkeye]

Favorites:

THE AIR CONDITIONER- Come summertime I get addicted tot he soothing sound of the air conditioner- and when it starts to get cooler and I can't use it, I get Ac withdrawl and have a hard time falling asleep for awhile

the Rain- as long as thunder doesn't accmompany it.
.
The GUITAR- I just love anyone playing the guitar, perferebly GOOD duitar players like Lindsey, Peter, Bob, Eric Clapton etc. but really any joe smoe can just start randomly strumming a guitar and I'd love it.


BAD sound.

Thunder- seriously how do people sleep through thunderstorms, to me I feel like we're being bombed when it Thunders.

A BAsketball Bouncing- OK this is a real weird one. But It doesn't bother me AT AL if I'm like playing basketball or even watching basketball. The only time it bugs me is when I'm like inside my house sleeping and I can hear the sound of someone bouncing a basketball. It freaking DRIVES ME NUTS then. It's the most annoying thing. But like I said it's only under certain circumstances.

Snoring- I've heard I'm a bad snorer but frankly I don't care If i be snoring just don't you be snoring. I can't hear me

[littlelies7]

Favorite Sounds:

I like Hawkeye's choice on the air conditioner. Only mine can rattle and it convieniently happens in the middle of the night. When it's quiet, it's a nice sound.

Thunderstorms: They never scared me as a child. I actually would watch the lightning and just be amazed.

The sound of falling rain: it helps me write. Seriously, it does.

Typing: Sorry DrummerDeanna . I love the sound, mostly because I associate it with my writing.

Least Favorite Sounds:
Crying babies

People screaming

A cacophony of just plain noise you can't escape (like my former job)

Warning: don't read this if you're eating.
Someone vomiting: I'll be the first one to mention this. I just hate it to death.

[GretaRhiannon]

Fave:
My neice laughing
Thunder
music (any except rap...not even music)
Rain on my windowsil

Least Fave:
my neice crying
my car when it wont start
those stupid car alarms, that go off when the wind blows, and the person that owns the car never hears it, because they are inside some building...grr

I think I figured out why I don't like Jana on that song. When she sings the "Back" part, she always tilts her head to the side and her mouth's shaped really weird. It bugs me.

But I'm fine with anything Elisecia wants to do!

Aww...Sharon and Jana are hardcore into it..especially Jana and I still maintain, I like the vocals. Will you have backing vocal love for me even if I look funny when I sing???
