I'd like to talk about music and the sounds around us. The sounds around us make up rudimentary elements of music. For example you can hear the sound of ambulance or police siren. You can hear birds sing and crickets chirp. You can hear the sounds of machines. A Harley Davidson has a particular sound. A jackhammer has another sound. Do you enjoy the sound of rain?
This piano music and the beatbox were recorded by @d-pend. I added the raindrops from my veranda and the pictures of the rain falling with a groovy filter.

You can find examples of every day life sound in famous music pieces and in popular music. The sounds that are recorded or imitated in the piece reveal to us what those musicians really heard.
Chopin did a piece that explores one raindrop at a time. It's not as cool as mine but it lifts up the spirits and makes me feel peaceful as if the rain was dancing a ballet. Maybe that's why this is classic.
Here is an example of a modern pop song with sounds from everyday life. This is Lil Wayne's Mrs. Officer. Lil Wayne is an assortment of nuts but to each his own flavor. When you listen to the chorus you here some sounds. They go something like "Weawe weawe weawe". These sounds are the sounds Lil Wayne had in his head when he thought of "Mrs. Officer". They are sounds of sirens. The last words he says are, "I'll make you sad." These sirens are not just police sirens. They are like the Sirens that call out to homer on his Odyssey.
Do you know any songs with sounds from everyday life?
I bet you can name one.
Classic indeed, I love your suggestion but it seems you made more than one suggestions. I've heard Lil Wayne's songs before but I haven't heard of this one, I'm sure it would be nice to listen to.
Nice suggestion by the way.
Yeah... I kind of screwed up day one but it's too late to change it.
Wonderful. I love instrumental music. From Lil Wayne, I like lollipop..hahaha.
