Wow what a wonderful talent. I can't whistle worth a darn. I admire her for her musical ability.
I can sing yet not pitch perfect, yet I cannot whistle much at all. GO Molly! What a gift for all x!
Such a cool and unique way for musicality to manifest itself in someone. She's truly gifted. As someone who never could whistle, I stand in awe. 🧡
How can I whistle like her?
@@leif1075 this is Very Hard, maybe You must Very Long training And any body songs.
I looked her up after the screaming guy in the sky song. I was hoping she made her own music, and I'm so glad to have found out that she does!
You are taking "whistle while you work" to an entirely new level, Molly. You are amazing!
U cant play an instrument to accompany you when u r alone? U whistle. This lady made it an art.
When I was a girl I didn’t want to eat the nearly burnt crust from the over baked homemade bread. My grandmother told me if I did someday I’d be able to whistle- I too can whistle any tune! Years later as a mother of 4, I would call my children in from play to our house in the woods by whistling a special tune that I call them with. I adore this segment! And am amazed by her talent! I read once a statistic that only 1 in 9 women can whistle. This lovely lady certainly is talented. Oddly my children know that I go nowhere with my chapstick either and tease me about it!😗👍😊🌸
Molly can whistle Abblasen, the CBS News Sunday Morning theme song.
I like her whitling tone at 03:53. Clean and pure!!
Found her in AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA song .
I never thought a person could make a living by whistling. This is an enjoyable story.
Big Enough brought me here
Unbelievable. Finally, respect for whistling. My father was an excellent whistler, and I picked it up from him. My daughter whistles, as well.
No just a whistler, but THE Whistler! Love her.
Absolutely lovely and completely charming woman, she made a fan out of me and I bought her EP! Give us an album Molly!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh, ahhhhhhhhhhhhh, ahhhhhhhh
Cue Screaming Cowboy in the sky
As someone who has annoyed family for decades by whistling along with music I love, I think Molly is gifted beyond words. There's just something that sends my spirit soaring to join along in whistle with classical music, church music, or really anything uplifting. I even have a parrot, one of the lesser-talented in talking, that I have taught a number of whistles. Break a leg, Molly!
I’m one with you girl, a fellow whistler, and after a few recordings, realizing you’re really good, you then have to face the weirdness factor.
Amazing, so soothing & magnetic. Is she the creator of that familiar tune she whistles (when she's wearing white suit w/ rhinestone collar?). I thought it was from an old movie but she does it so good, now I'm not sure.
Yes, i thought i heard a Bernard Hermann melody from the "Fahrenheit 451" movie. I could be wrong however. And, i don't know the name of the tune.
@@MPam1619 You are correct. My ears really perked up when I heard that. He's my favorite since childhood. It's from a british thriller called "Twisted Nerve." ! A grown-up Hayley Mills ! movie.
2:27
@@anastasiabeaverhausen8220 I'll have to checkout the Haley Mills movie. Glad you shared that!
@@kendufner9733 yes, that's the magical tune. Where did you first hear it?
Her Mom must be very proud, she's now Whistler's Mother! (Sorry, had to ;-) )
Someone should do a remake of the movie 8 Mile but with whistling instead of rapping
I don't know it's an Idea
This is just fantabulous, I can whistle, but this is such a talent and so splendid to behold, LOVE IT =---> =----> =--l->
Can anyone help me, one night on television maybe 30 years ago, I saw a movie which was like a western, set in Mexico in the late 1800's I think, or south America, there was a rich family which had a daughter who could whistle a classical sonata of some sort. Anyone know what that movie was? What the music was?
I wonder how many people go up to her and start going, 'AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH AHHHHHH HAAAAA AHHHH AAHHHHHHHHHHHH ..."
Toot Thielman. Ron McCroby. I hope she knows about these Master Whistlers!
That parent would be….ahem…..the whistler’s mother…..amiright?
I’m love to whistle too.
I’ve heard it referred to as as “playing the puckalo “.
Me too,....I have heard it called that too. Sometimes orchestras will have a part for a whistler.
Molly did we meet in 2012 at the Competition in Louisburg
I see Film and Animation gigs in her future.
Oh WOW
I am in LOVE!
And no, not lust you naughty lot, I know the difference and I feel LOVE for this woman.
**The Whistler.**
Her smile is like the sunrise over a mountain stream ...
It glistens with each droplet of pure trickling water, it shines and gives me warmth which could last a lifetime.
Her eyes are as the Northern Lights are in the black of the sky.
They bring a splash of colour and light up my heart. They create colours all of their own.
Colours that can not be replicated, not by an artists palette, nor by nature.
I could love this lady over a thousand mornings, for a thousand sunsets, under a million stars...
..all of them shining, just for you, Molly.
Shining,
just,
for you.
Who came here after watching the music video “Big Enough”?
Newly released on Qobuz 😊
Whistling in the right context is wonderful, other times not so much. I worked in a bank, and a older gentleman would come in whistling, and it was beautiful, but after three minutes of that. We just wanted him to SHUT UP, ALREADY! Hahaha 😂
A Unique Woman and Amazing Woman, After From Big Enough Song > This Woman Prove That Whistler Is A Masterpiece.
Very interesting,
love Molly; what a happy nice charming woman
I’m an expert whistler too. One of my friends once asked how I produce whole-and-half-tone trills. I said it’s all in the tongue. He said, lucky wife!
Lets whistle together❤ im special also
Harpo Marx, of Marx Brother's fame, was a skilled whistler.
Juan and I whistle while working. I'm gonna have to zonk myself for doing that, because I want to get busy that way I don't get behind
I can sing and I used to whistle when I was younger,what she does is magical and amazing she has a gift that most of us don’t ,to be on tune when you whistle is much more difficult then to be on tune when you sing period.You have to control all this different muscles on your face in order to do it right she does it effortless wooow
Molly is the whistler in the Barbie movie, during the end credits, in a version of Billie's song, What Was I Made For?
Molly's whistling is fantastic but I forgot how cringe TV is... good lord
Molly: *Whistles*
Jimmy Barns: *AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH*
HAAAAAAAAAAAA
I am a Whistler too 😃
I can never whistle, but I always love hearing stories and talents regarding it. 😗🎶🎵💯
It just takes practice... lots of practice.
@@sunshine3914 Now, that I can believe.
@@chrisfinch8637 So I can learn to whistle like her?
It's interesting to watch what Molly is doing with her hands while she whistles, there's a lot of expression in her hand gestures.
I HATE whistling, but when you do it right... 💜👽
This makes my inner nerd happy.
I can whistle this well, who do I see about making the big bucks too?
I thought I detected a teeny tiny bit of flirting here and there but she is totally enchanting so it's understandable... what a phenomenal talent. I'm jealous, I only whistle when I laugh..😂
Strange Fruit is a cool piece of music - I really like what she does and what a lovely person she seems to be.
She is beautiful her core is wonderful
This is definitely a greater appreciation for the ears than most music that vomited into society for the last 25-30yrs.
heard Molly's story on NPR this week while driving home from work (where I do NOT whistle), and was absolutely captivated. You go, Molly! God's given you a great gift to upflift spirits and make people happy (and amazed). Pucker up and blow, honey!
I’ve see. Molly live and got to meet her. Incredible talent and wonderful human being.
I remember the show "Lassie"....that themesong allways got to me... It just souned so sad....
Then there is "The Good The Bad and The Ugly" ...waw..waw.waw !!!🎵
I was thinking of that too! It was "Greensleeves" wasn't it?
My dad had the most beautiful whistle but after his stroke, he lost the ability due his paralysis. So now, when I hear someone whistle well, it brings back happy memories.
Bravo I love the whistle it gives a lighter way of the interpretation thank you for this performance musically +1+1
This town might be big enough...
For all of us.
I am here because screaming cowboy
So good! There have been many great whistlers, and she deserves her place among them. My favorite is the late Ron McCroby, seen here on Johnny Carson’s Tonight Show: th-cam.com/video/baEoyXoDVc4/w-d-xo.html
My God, she’s knockout gorgeous.
3:09 sounds like her part in this classic: th-cam.com/video/rvrZJ5C_Nwg/w-d-xo.html
That is her indeed.
Omgg she’s so good at whistling 😙 💖💖
One of Sunday Mornings very unique segments, you just never know what you're going to hear (or discover) until you click the play button. Thank you CBS Sunday Morning.
It comes, at least for me, from hearing songs from birds, the winds, gales, at times, call and response to mockingbirds, so lovely, here in Virginia. Atlantic waters where the Sun rises, Tidewater Country. Blue Crabs, Rockfish, etc... Chesapeake Bay. Preserve, please. 😊k
When does a bird sing
Wow! I’m so grateful to you…
My best and most heartfelt memories of my grandpa are of him whistling, like always, anytime, anywhere and especially in the car on road trips.
💖
Fascinating.
Is she ,, the girl'' from Big Enough ?
yup
My wonderful Dad could whistle like her!! I’ve never heard anyone else who sounded like him🥰. Thank you Molly Lewis🥰
My kindred spirit! I love to whistle too! I’m so happy I found out about you, dear Molly!
Can she sing as well as whistle?
Who came here after Listening to Darker Still from Parkway Drive ???
I am a whistler as well and I cover different songs and I am known as shishkabap
I know they’re used to be professional whistlers!
Check out 'Lounge Lizard" official video by Molly L.
Her whistling is very impressive!!!!!!
It's been a while since I've watched this one, molly did a great job on this
She is cool
Where does Molly like to go for vacation??
2:27 What's the name of that song, I've been looking for it for a long time.
Wow! Her past soul must have been from a bird!
Wow wonderful report!
I never forget whistle songs like "Bridge over the River Kwai" to "Flo Rida". Awesome.
Lee Cowan whistles better than I do. (I'm one of the few folks who cannot whistle.)
Definite talent. Great!
SYSK brought me here.
Delighted to hear her whistling a movie titles theme from the great Bernard Herrmann. Which was written as a whistle.
dan lewis, where you at?
Parkway Drive anyone?
Her mom looks nothing like the famous painting. 🤔
Such a beautiful & talented way to produce music.
such a lovely nona

She should cover Spaghetti western themes.
