I would have edited the previous post, but I'm too late! lol

Anyway, I like the sound of cheering when the villagers accomplish something!

I offten her the sound of the waves when I scrol near the sea is my favorite sound and the sound of the water fall at the pool, when the villagers dive into the pool the splashing sounds. I love all the sound effects, also in PT in the nuresery here the footfalls of the villager costumerss on the ground.

I like all the sounds too! except one, it's the big "sssllluuurp" the villagers do when they drink water in the stream!! It's a little too much!

My female villager was excited for christmas

she said something like "HUMM" but i imagined "HAM" LOL

That just means you are hungry Robert!

yeah LOL

If you want to hear all the sounds, just turn off the music...kids feet patter, and some of the booms you hear are from the research table. Make sure you check your scientists' life bar. They can get really hurt! Often the older and younger scientists get injured. Love the "Happy Whistler" near the huts! When the fire "whooshes," it's usually followed by childrens' laughter. The only sound that has every really eluded me is that cicada. I'm not sure where it is.

I agree, that the drinking "shhhluuuhhhrpp" is too much.
But I like the sounds very much. Even when I am not playing, I leave the game on so I can hear the sounds in the background, because I find it relaxing. The hammering of the builders, the children playing, the craw-birds flying, the water-splashes ..

And yesterday one of my villagers was enjoying the beach: he was walking near the place where the dry grass is to be found, and I heard him whisteling a tune!

Wow...I feel cheated! Why is that I have never heard the sounds of "cheering" or "whistling tunes" or the "slurping" sound when the villagers are drinking?

This is something new to me. I play V V 1, and 2 all the time, and have yet to hear the above mentioned sounds. The "cheering" sound would be a great addition to when they are celebrating accomplishments.

Any reason why?

I've noticed that sometimes the cheering is a little soft, and you can't really hear it with the music on.

Also, a sound that I noticed for the first time today occurs when you don't have the music on and you go to the map screen. You can hear wind whistling. I think it's cool....

EDIT: As for the wind-chime/collectable correlation... this last time I heard it, I found a butterfly in the graveyard.
