I'm just wondering at my neighborhood that old people don't really like noisy music like rock, is it because they want to sleep early or it's their age's reality?

Well as you said it's noisy rock music. I assume you are referring to loudly played rock music. It's probably not so much as the genre, as the level of the noise. It just so happens that when rock music is played very loud, it becomes noise. I don't think it has anything to do with age but more of the noise that it created. I don't like rock music played loudly too. I guess that makes me an old person in your definition.

I think that it's all about interests. Old people like music that dates back to their times, like Jazz or whatever, they have no good memories or anything tied to the modern music. They have grown up in a world of different music. Old people mostly don't like rock music and even less they like music that plays very loud. You know, when I'm tired or in a bad mood, I sometimes feel like an old person too. I want to shut every source of loud sound, including music speakers. And everyone would start complaining if the music would reach a very loud level.

Herro marvintechnology I'm speaking from experience in several areas. When I listened to music in younger years I could understand the music and the words. There was meaning in the songs. Second, much of the loud music, esp. loud base, hurts my ears. Frequently people who listen to this music have it so loud that with my windows up, I still cannot hear my music. I don't play mine so loud that it bothers other people. I do listen to different music. I think people should be entitled to listen to whatever music they want, without bothering others, either sound or style. I don't sleep as well at night as I used to, I do wake easily. I think I covered all aspects. Prosperous mylotting

Aged people usually get some difficulties to fall asleep. That's what my grandparents used to tell me whenever they tell us to slower our voices. Hard to sleep and got easily disturbed by even slower noise, that is why they really don't like noisy music because they wanted to have longer times to have peace and take some rests.
