What is your favourite tune to whistle?

(I helped save b3ta! JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Fri 27 Aug 2010, 12:26, 1 reply, 16 years ago)
The whistling solo from 'Me and Julio' by Paul Simon.
I also do the riff from My Sweet Lord pretty shit hot too. .

I can only whistle
With my fingers in my mouth.

I found that difficult, and couldn't do it until I was about 20,
when I learnt it from a guide in Maxim.

I've been able to do ordinary and toothy whistling since I was tiny.

I can't describe it
You kind of say 'pyow' rather than just toodling through your lips.

No but that's what we call my uncle who taught me how to whistle.
He is unbelievable.

Hang on.
So I need to see your uncle to get my fiver?

When do you usually do your whistling?

All the while
But I'm banned from doing it in my hairdresser's

Brilliant.
How long did you whistle for in the hairdressers before you were asked/told to stop?
(I helped save b3ta! JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Fri 27 Aug 2010, 13:06, Reply)
12 and a half years
I just counted.

I know what you mean
...with your lips not pursed, unlike 'trad' whistling?

yeah
That's how I do guitar riffs by whistling.

can you do The Good, The Bad and The Ugly?
I think that's my favourite whistling number.

the thought will be awful to you
but look on youtube for the Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain doing that tune. It's really quite good.
