Thanks for your help.
First of all 'big city trouble' means the busy life by the people in a big city. Well, I would write 'big city life' next time. Secondly I don't want write 'noises'. That is negative. The writer's opinion about the 'noises' is positive, so it's better to say 'sounds'. For example I love listening the car sound. Finally the other advices are good.

Thanks. Have nice day!

Bye.

"Trouble" are things that trouble you or get you in trouble, not at all what you seem to want, so yes, "life" is a better choice.

Noise is not really positive but not necessarily seen negatively. It's just noisy, something you cannot grasp or identify. A sound on the other hand is something you can identify. I would use either "noise" (not noises) or sounds, although personally I find noise much more fitting for a city.

You know the car sound. I think you know the city sound too. For example the sound by the walking people. Well, I would identify the city sounds. The cow sound is not specific for a city. Hm. Thanks for the comments.

Glad you found it helpful, I wasn't sure.

I actually don't. Which is why I wrote "personally".

I have heard many cars and I have been in many cities, but what most other people hear as one sound are often many different sounds to me. It's just the way my brain works. It surely would be awesome, too, if I had any control over it. But I don't. I not only hear a lot of different sounds I also hear them all at the same time and I can't filter any of them out. So what you might call "sound of a city" is something rather painfully noisy to me.
