I completely and utterly agree, what an iconic aircraft this is!
The "howling" from the engine intakes is hair raisingly primeval and the Earth shattering roar from the engines is an unforgettably guttural and soul wrenching experience.
You'll not understand any of this from a YouTube video, you need to have witnessed this first hand.
Long may the unmatched aeronautical fear of the Vulcan live on.

The ground shook when the pilot stood it on end to then climb vertically upwards directly over the 03 numbers at EGKB, and the noise thus inscribed itself into our collective memories.
The picture of the Vulcan above actually captures its spirit nicely, but I fear that the noise is quite un-capturable, until that is it permeates and then etches itself into the very membranes of ones soul....
