Sorry. Someone had to do it.

From the little I've discovered about the subject it seems that deaf people enjoy music in which bass is prominent, it being perhaps the most physically perceptible element of music. So, search: any music described as "physical".

Not much.

Depeche Mode's "Enjoy the Silence"

2 deaf men were heavily featured in VH1's "Fans" documentary about Motley Crue. These 2 were ROCKING at the show; they knew all the lyrics by heart, and were virtuoso air guitarists (it helps that the Crue has so much to, uh, offer at the visual level I wd imagine).

yeah there was this deaf guy we knew in auckland was really into techno & going to dance parties & stuff. you can imagine the amusing things we (= bunch of rock fans) all had to say about this.

There is a DJ who is quite famous and at least half deaf . He works on vibrations and frequencies. Its really odd music.

Somehow, I don't think the visual aspect of the Motley Crue performance would be of much use to Helen Keller...

May the career of Evelyn Glennie haunt you in your sleep of cheap jokes.
