[aethelred1000]

So brilliant.... killer song !

[JavierBaby]

I remember watching Whistle Test the night this was first broadcast, I was knocked out then and it still knocks me out now; what a brilliant band, song, arrangement and MP is just on fire, way to go boys. "Oh baby!" right enough :) IV

[djkevano]

Quality !

[knobber]

Class...

[MrShooter16]

This sounds a LOT different, than the US version...

[Winkybus77]

Verry nice !!

[simonjamie]

It was called whistle test because way back, if you could whistle a song having heard it just the once, it was deemed to be a hit. simplez.

[doniphandude]

The audience is so stoic and unmoved. Whats up with that?

[9shoegal]

gawd Marti was a handsome devil wasnt he!!

[cogboy302]

A very good live performance of this track. It's faultless. Pity it's had so few views.

[fulcrum100]

Quite simply one of the best things ever posted on youtube. Su-frekin - perb percolating bass guitar owrk throughout. nice one Nick, for posting.

[gahan101]

why does Marti add extra lyrics around the 'make me push on trough' part when they play this song live?

[driscoll126]

nerves

[sickspastic]

it's called interpretation. if you wanna hear it exactly as recorded just listen to the album

[robr55]

You wouldn't think that song is over 20 years old...it's aged well

[jmibo67]

[TamaraGalica]

Thanks for posting this. A classic song and a simply superb voice!

[weallliveinusa]

Why is it known as "whistel test".

[nick7sikkema]

the name of the tv show; good show, apllause. bad show. whistling croud.

[wiewiorka78]

so it was a very good show :D

[simonjamie]

It was called a "Whistle Test" because if you could whistle the tune of a song having only heard it the once, then the song would surely be a hit. It's true, and the theory works. That's really how the eurovision song contest operates. You only get to hear each song once, and the one that sticks in your mind will be the one you would vote for.... ...... Simplez

Originally the show was called "The old grey whistle test" I've not checked but there are bound to be clips here on YT.

[fulcrum100]

The old grey Whistle test was named for... if a tune could be whistled by the janitor at the studio, it would surely be a hit.

[lindarn6]
