What's the most beautiful sound you've heard?

[bif]

For me, it's the sound of Bjork growling. Sends shivers down my spine.

[Magrittes Pipe]

1. I heard it the other night.

:evilgrin:

[XNASA]

7. Too bad no one else was there to share it.

:evilgrin:

[Beware the Beast Man]

8. Speak for yourself, I saw at least 5 of us there.

:wow:

[XNASA]

10. All active participants?

Or just spectators....??

[Beware the Beast Man]

13. A little bit of both.

Someone needs to operate the polaroid. :evilgrin:

[Magrittes Pipe]

18. You people are fucked-up.

I was talking about the sound of my daughters saying "I love you."

Assholes. :eyes:

[Beware the Beast Man]

23. I was refering to our scrapbooking project, you moran.

[Tsiyu]

34. If it's any consolation

my first thought was of my babies' coos.

Then I thought of the sound someone makes when they start breathing again.

Then I thought about a babbling brook.

Peaceful.


But they were pretty funny up above :D those sickos

[XNASA]

37. "Oh yeah? Well then. I'm gonna fuck YOU up..........

On Monday!!!!!

Unless it's a Holiday, then you'll have to wait until Tuesday."

(I know it's not really that funny in this context, but I once heard a drunk guy threaten another drunk guy in a bar one Friday night using the same line of thinking. Actually, 'that' may have been the most beautiful sound I've ever heard, come to think of it.)

[Bertha Venation]

2. in the middle of the night . . .

the purring of a feral kitten curled up next to me, who somehow finds it safe to cuddle in the dark.

At least, that's the most beautiful sound for today.

[bowens43]

3. That's easy.

The first cry from my children as they entered the world....

[loudestchick]

9. Same here. Also the sound of their sweet breathing when you're

exhausted. I remember it well.:boring:

[Phentex]

29. Oh yeah.....

:thumbsup:

[SarahB]

11. Yes

Nothing like it. :)

[JimmyJazz]

14. That is exactly what I was going to say!

Wow - :)

[rbnyc]

33. Yep!!

I have to agree!

[Spinzonner]

4. Maria

[KurtNYC]

30. Say it loud and there's music playing

say it soft and it's almost like praying.

[physioex]

5. Whizzing.....

At the rest area after being stuck at a traffic jam for two hours..... :smoke:

(Next time I'm getting out and going on the side of the road ;) )

[no name no slogan]

6. "Dreamweaver" by Gary Wright

...and you're welcome for the earworm

[johnnie]

12. Not funny fast enough

Edited to delete my Maria reference.

[koopie57]

15. I knew a lady who was extremely hard of hearing

when she was about 45 years old she was fitted with her first hearing aide. She talked for years about waking up and hearing the birds singing. Now I always will take a moment to listen to the birds. My other favorite sound is Freddy Mercury.

[Joe Power]

16. "dad"

[ladjf]

17. The finale of the "Firebird Suite".

[AllegroRondo]

36. Good one!

That last chord that comes up out of nowhere - it just sends shivers down my spine.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

19. Misunderestimator singing

[Misunderestimator]

32. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww

I just saw that... you so sweet... :loveya:

[Texasgal]

20. Hounds of love

Kate Bush.... still love her.

[Bouncy Ball]

21. The first time my daughter giggled, when she was about eight weeks old.

Music to my ears. I have it on tape.

[LynneSin]

22. George W. Bush will be impeached & jailed for his crimes against humanity

well, I haven't heard it yet but I know that'll be music to my ears!!

[Rabrrrrrr]

24. The sound of my enemies being crushed; the sound of them being driven

before me; and the lamentations of their women.

:evilgrin:

[Rabrrrrrr]

25. "George W. Criminal Fucknob, we the jury find you guilty of crimes

against humanity, war crimes, and generally being an evil filthy turdfucking moron."

Oh, wait -that's the most beautiful sound I want to hear.

Sorry.

[Ilsa]

26. My son finally saying a word.

He's autistic. Didn't say squat for three years. His first words, "Nite-nite" and "Old McDonald" were music to our ears.

[slackmaster]

27. I'm partial to thunder

We don't get to hear it often where I live, which is great for computer equipment. OTOH when we do get a thunderstorm a lot of equipment that is not properly protected against lightning gets whacked.

[GreenPartyVoter]

28. Giggling kids and babies. That just makes everything better

[Bullwinkle925]

31. For some strange reason, I always loved the sound of gravel

crunching underneath my bicycle tires as I rode through country lanes in Kansas as a kid.

[Tsiyu]

35. "Bike wheels on a gravel road."

There's a song there somewhere.

[Bullwinkle925]

39. Write one - I give you permission!

[yellowdogintexas]

38. my daughter's first cry, of course

followed by the sound of her voice after I found out she had just had an auto accident. Good thing I talked to her too because if I had seen the car first, I would have been a basket case!!

My husband's voice on the phone when he is out of town.

on a more mundane level: anything by Mozart

any cat purring in my lap, or next to me in bed

[Steve Nash is god 13]

40. i dont know

[catzies]

41. Mockingbirds. Love them. Lucky enough that several nest near me.

To me there's nothing more instantly soothing than hearing a mockingbird burst into song.

[skygazer]

42. My Boxer breathing

He'd choked on a piece of pizza crust that my son had given him. He came into my room and I could see he was in severe distress - his mouth was open but he couldn't catch a breath.

I did a couple of doggie Heimlichs but they didn't help so I tried to reach into his throat to dislodge the pizza crust. My three kids were freaking out and the dog was shaking his head so I couldn't get anywhere.

I picked him up and ran outside where I continued to work on him. I could feel him weakening in my arms, the life was just flowing out of him. I was yelling, "Jake! Jake! Don't you dare die on me!" while I tried everything I could think of.

Finally, as he sank to the ground, he lost the ability to fight against me and I reached far down his throat and heard the most beautiful sound EVER - a gasp.

It took him nearly fifteen minutes to get back to his feet after that initial breath but he was fine and suffered no ill effects. He lived for another 7 or 8 years.

I'll never forget that - I don't think I could have felt worse if it was one of my children dying in my arms...

43. The Princess Saying "I Love You"

Tomorrow, we celebrate our 12th wedding anniversary.
