Default Give a little whistle


YouTube - Pinocchio and Jiminy Cricket - Always Let Your Conscience Be Your Guide!

Slim: You know you don't have to act with me, Steve. You don't have to say anything, and you don't have to do anything. Not a thing. Oh, maybe just whistle. You know how to whistle, don't you, Steve? You just put your lips together and... blow.

I'm shocked that nobody until now remembered how this one ends . . .


Otis Redding, "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay"

Or, how this one was laced (ok, the instrument was a theramin but its whistle was still there . . . )


The Beach Boys, "Good Vibrations"

Lest we forget, too . . .


Brian Wilson, "Mrs. O'Leary's Cow" (from Smile)

Nope, it was (fittingly enough for this thread) a siren whistle.
