Sometimes those types of sounds, as well as other types of sounds found in nature (I think that was mentioned to you previously) can be enjoyable to listen to because they can take you to a different place...provoking images in your brain just from the sound alone. In that sense, it would be using the music to evoke the feeling, which is somewhat different from simply listening to music because it sounds good to your ear. City sounds would be the same.

Sometimes. If it's in the distance it can be nice, if it's next door it can be annoying As I say, I listen to plenty of non-music noise, but I don't like loud, discordant, abrasive noise. I wouldn't for instance lean out of my window and listen to the raucous cry of a magpie, someone bawling drunkenly in the street (yes, this is Ireland!) or somebody smashing glass with a hammer...
