Rant: whistling in pop music

[MarkXIX]

Okay, who the fuck approved of this shit to play on the airwaves? If I hear another fucking song that his whistling in it, I'm going to lose it.

Listening to the radio drives me insane, so I don't do it.

 

[Spikesoldier]

at least its not autotuned whistling

 

[DominionSeraph]

I don't think Miku can whistle, so I'm safe.

why are the people who complain about pop radio always the ones who listen to it no matter what, anyway?

maybe just stop listening? tuning in to FM radio is feeding the trolls.

Well, I am still adjusting to giving up my XM radio and my all 80's station. Back to CDs I guess!

I like that Gorillaz song with all the whistling.

You try Pandora Radio or 8tracks?

Every time I hear that "we're not talkin' 'bout the old folks" song I end up whistling it all day in my head

I guess you do not like Peter, Bjorn & John then either.

They have dips from me for not using vevo.

Am I the only one who has no clue what the OP is talking about?

I can't think of a single song that has whistling in it right now.

Pop music should be abolished, that would fix the issue.

 

[Rubycon]

Justified.

I've whistled at birds in the tropics and they whistle back at me. It's cute.

Oh and this guy can whistle too!

That is funny about 2 weekends ago on a friday evening i was having a talk with a very knowledgeable guy who went on and on about Jan Akkerman and Thijs van Leer. And he explained how the vocal parts should have been played on guitar with a lot of effects and not sung. Now that i see this video clip, i fully agree with him. Jan Akkerman knows the guitar.
