21 Nostalgic Sounds Younger Generations Will Never Hear
Recently, Reddit user u/Repulsive-Pitch2555 asked an extremely nostalgic question, "People over 30: What's a sound from your childhood that younger generations will never hear?" Here are the top-voted nostalgic sounds that millennials and Gen-Xers can hear just like it was yesterday: "The clink of those heavy metal seat belt buckles. Bonus points if it branded the GM logo into your leg because it was 9,000 degrees." —KillerKowalski1 "For me, it's the screeching dial-up internet sound. I can still hear it in my soul." —Repulsive-Pitch2555"EEEEEEEEEerrrrrrrrrrbimbahmbindahmeeeeeeee."—BonerTurds"Poing-Poing-whap-PSSSSHHHHHHHHHH."—nmezib "That squeaky sound of the AIM chat door opening when your friend logged on." —ParcOSP"Or when it slammed shut and it was your crush who logged off 😭😂"—peacelovetacos247 "Static from the TV on the wrong channel or when the antenna wasn't adjusted properly." —StringSlinging "The opening of a VHS case. Also, the rewinding of a VHS tape." —leafer91 "The sound of someone slamming the phone when hanging up." —Rivas-al-Yehuda"And the satisfaction."—ladydrybones "The Windows 95 start-up sounds have been BURNED INTO MY SOUL." —Xeroxitosis "If you'd like to make a call, please hang up and try again. If you need help, hang up and then dial your operator." —cheesechimp"And the three weird little discordant tones that preceded it."—onlymemes-plz "The cassette rewinding faster and faster and faster until that final thump, and then a whine as it tries to keep rewinding and can't." —ledow"Alternatively, the horrifying sound of the cassette player devouring your tape before you can run across the room to stop it. Followed by the sad sounds of twisting and twisting the little wheel thingie with your finger as you attempt to respool the tape into the cassette."—shugersugar"I always kept a ✏️ nearby for just that that section of tape was forever garbled."—Sweet-Competition-15 "The cha-chunk of a manual credit card machine thingy." —Edward_the_Dog "This is so silly, but the squeak of the crank windows on cars takes me back." —Rockelle_Americano"Also, the sound old-fashioned analog blinkers made. New cars try to imitate it, but they don't quite hit the spot. And then the way old windshield wiper motors sounded — they were so loud that they drowned out the noise of the rain."—Me66 "Disney movie trailers voiced by Mark Elliott. If you don't know his name, you've definitely heard his voice in Disney trailers from the '90s and 2000s. He died in 2021, so younger generations will never hear him promote a new Disney thing." —PurpleDreamer28"Omg yes — 'Coming soon to own on video and DVD…' was literally a genre of trailer on its own. RIP to the voice of childhood."—Repulsive-Pitch2555 "The staticky sound from those grey computer speakers when a call was coming in." —will2165"Ditadit ditadit ditadit diiiiiiiiii...."—Pigheaded40something "N-Ni-Nic-Nick-N-Nic-Nick-Nick-NICKELODEONNNN." —Key-Cap3156"There's a documentary called The Orange Years that's all about Nickelodeon from the early '80s until about 2000. It's a really nostalgic trip for anyone who grew up in that timeframe."—Seahearn4 "You've got mail." —StagWants2Party"The AOL voice! That 'welcome' still lives rent-free in my brain. 😅"—Repulsive-Pitch2555 "After these messages, we'll be right back." —NBAccount "Downloading a corrupted file on Limewire and getting the good old 'I did not have sexual relations with that woman.'" —DueSink728 "The sound of someone blowing into a Nintendo cartridge." —DesignerCampaign2567 "Waking up at 3 a.m. on the couch to, 'How will I ever live without you! ULTIMATE LOVE SONG COLLECTION OF THE '80s." —zRustyShackleford "The sound of clapping out the chalkboard erasers." —Hikikomori_Otaku "Opening a glass bottle of Snapple. That popping sound." —MrCrix What other nostalgic sounds from your childhood do you miss? Let us know in the comments!

Taylor Swift Makes History After Taking Back Ownership of Her Masters
Taylor Swift Makes History After Taking Back Ownership of Her Masters originally appeared on Athlon Sports. It's been a banner week for pop star Taylor Swift, the girlfriend of Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce. Though she didn't win any of the six American Music Awards she was nominated for, Swift was still in the headlines and a trending topic on social media after she was seen on a solo outing in New York City on Thursday night — her first public appearance without Kelce since before the Super Bowl back in early February. Then, less than 12 hours later, Swift rocked the music world when she announced she had struck a deal, reportedly worth $360 million, to buy back the masters of her first six albums from Shamrock Capital, which had ownership rights since buying them from Scooter Braun back in 2019. The announcement was one of, if not the biggest in the entertainment world this year, and hours after Swift posted the news, her album 'Reputation,' which was released back in 2017, was once again No. 1 on the iTunes chart, bumping Morgan Wallen out of the top spot. Now, 48 hours later, Swift got some more good news as she's achieved something no other recording artists ever has before. 'For the first time ever, all of Taylor Swift's albums received over 2 million daily streams on Spotify,' X account @chartstswift posted. It marks the first time ever any recording artist has had every one of their albums hit 2 million streams each all in the same day. Swift also had a milestone day on Saturday, seeing the biggest streaming day for any female artist this year, hitting 65 million streams on Spotify, despite not releasing any new music since April 19, 2024, when 'The Tortured Poets Department' was made available. There have been reports that Swift is expected to work on a new album for an end-of-year-release, but nothing has been confirmed by anyone in the 14-time Grammy winner's camp about it yet. Swift and Kelce have been spotted a few times this offseason having a date night, but the couple has actively been avoiding the public eye since the Super Bowl. But with the 2025 NFL season right around the corner, Chiefs fans will be seeing a lot more of the 'Fortnight' singer as it's been reported Swift is expected to attend most, if not all of Kelce's home games this season. The Chiefs are 19-4 in games that Swift attends, including the playoffs (and two Super Bowls). This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 3, 2025, where it first appeared.
