#whistle

I like to hear melodies that go from one extreme to the next- saxophone to a bell to a whistle, for instance. ↗

I've always been a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde. I always feel that you should keep singles as commercial as possible so that the people can walk down the road and whistle a song. But on the other hand on albums I think you can afford to show people what you can do. ↗

Question for your life: If love existed an octave above where your vocal range ended, would you buy a dog whistle to get my attention? ↗

Why did they keep changing guitars and amplifiers when they were perfect? They did the same things with cars, if you ask me. They forgot how to make them right, because they focused on style and bells and whistles. ↗

We don't always agree on stuff, but when it's time to blow the whistle and start the game, we're not still debating. ↗

When your own fans whistle and jeer, then you have a big problem. ↗

It's always interesting to be playing against some of my best friends and some of my longtime teammates. You get to see them before the game and after the game and it's always nice to catch up but when the whistle blows it's sort of all business on the field. ↗

I would like to visit the factory that makes train horns, and ask them how they are able to arrive at that chord of eternal mournfulness. Is it deliberately sad? Are the horns saying, Be careful, stay away from this train or it will run you over and then people will grieve, and their grief will be as the inconsolable wail of this horn through the night? The out-of-tuneness of the triad is part of its beauty. ↗
