Whistling & Work

Some people whistle while they work. You may remember seeing the 1937 version of the animated Disney film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and its song: whistle while you work. It suggested that whistling provided a pace for cleaning up the place. In the original Broadway production of The King and I, Gertrude Lawrence and I Whistle A Happy Tune as a way to deal with feeling afraid.  a way to cover up being afraid. In Universal Pictures, Les Misérables, the Song of Angry Men was about people who will not be slaves again. Bottom line? People whistle or sing for many different reasons, each likely as unique as each person’s brain. If you can’t whistle (and sometimes dental repairs mean that the mouth can no longer whistle), then hum. Humming can express emotion, as well, and the sounds are good for the brain.
