An aerodynamic whistle (or call) is a simple aerophone, an instrument which produces sound from a stream of gas, most commonly air. It may be mouth-operated, or powered by air pressure, steam, or other means. Whistles vary in size from a small slide whistle or nose flute type to a large multi-piped church organ.
Whistles have been around since early humans first carved out a gourd or branch and found they could make sound with it. In prehistoric Egypt, small shells were used as whistles. Many present day wind instruments are inheritors of these early whistles. With the rise of more mechanical power, other forms of whistles have been developed.
One characteristic of a whistle is that it creates a pure, or nearly pure, tone. There are many ways to create pure tones, but we restrict the descriptions here to what are called aerodynamic whistles. Strictly speaking, they are fluid mechanical whistles since they occur in gases, such as air or steam, as well as in liquids, such as water. The only difference between them is the fluid density and the sound speed.

Andy Pandy and Mr Pastry
Good golly Miss Molly
You sure look tasty
The wooden tops
And goldilocks
Sit with Bill and Ben
To watch Top of the Pops
Plugalugglopamop
Ho ho Auntie Jean
Your very first go on the big wheel
To spin the big wheel score a cheap thrill
The enter into the smug world
The drugged world what a quiet girl
Mmm mmm mmm then I learnt to whistle
Mmm mmm mmm then I learnt to
The golden age of eighteen
If you go down to the pub tonight
You're sure of a big surprise
A straight glass pushed to the side of the boat
Through somebody else's lies
They are squeezing you teasing you they're egging you on
They're egging you on (x6)
Well I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walked like a woman but talked like a man
Mmm mmm mmm then I learnt to whistle
Mmm mmm mmm then I learnt to whistle
Toommy Cooper till death us do part
And with his dying breath laughed
Then apple and carted
Ooh ! Man what's going on what's going on what's going on going on going on going on
Must be getting on getting on what's going on
Mmm mmm mmm then I learnt to whistle
Mmm mmm mmm then I learnt to whistle
