Opening Credits, Double Time - 05 - Learned It Off A Whistle (alt)

[Intro] [sub bass and open hats, no lead] [Verse 1] [rimshot enters on the offbeat] He does not have a case out and he isn't asking for a thing. He stands beside the barrier and he whistles, and that's all. The first time that I heard it I was late and going fast, and I was doing it myself before I got down to the hall. [Whistle] [whistled hook, no words] [shaker enters underneath] [voice: male tenor, plain, close] And that's the whole of it. [Verse 2] [congas enter beside the kick] There is a man in a suit doing it now and he does not know he is. There's a kid on the escalator getting the ending wrong. It has no words in it at all, so there is nothing you can learn — you either have it in your head or you have not heard the song. [Whistle] [whistled hook doubles, hats open] [voice: male tenor, plain, close] And that's the whole of it. [Break] [kick out, congas and sub only] [filtered noise rises across four bars] [Verse 3] [kick replaced by congas, same energy] He'll be gone by the time the boards go blank and none of us will ask. The tune goes out the doors with all of you and up the street. Somebody will whistle it in a kitchen far from here and not one person in the room will know who they repeat. [Final Whistle] [whistle takes one slow pass over the kick alone] [sine lead doubles the whistle an octave down] [voice: male tenor, plain, close] And that's the whole of it. [Outro] [congas thin out under the whistle] [winding down]
