I'm trying to revive the tradition of singing and whistling in public. I do it a lot as I walk from class to class at ECU, trying to inspire other young folks to do so. You won't find it strange to hear me singing "Wild Mountain Thyme" or whistle "Tears" by Django Reinhardt or "Farewell to Craigie Dhu" by Dougie MacLean. And, from my extensive perusal of Reader's Digest Old(!)Standards songbooks, you might hear me whistling "Stormy Weather," "September Song," "Harbor Lights," or "Hymne L'Amour"(an Edith Piaf song.) I wish other kids would do so too, it's so much fun! Then we'd all be like those guys in West Side Story!
