Whistling In Songs

I have loved melody in songs. And appreciated people who sing well. While in college, there used to be a sweeper who could whistle so well that I would wait up to listen to him.

I was listening to the song "Neerodum Vaigaiyile" from the Tamil movie Paar Magale Paar and was enjoying the song and the sound of the whistle. I browsed about the latter and came across this very interesting post, that too in FB.

This song has a nice whistle: Aankhon Mein Kyaa Ji (1957, MD: SD Burman).

And here is another link, apparently there is a whistler's association.
