When I heard this I was thinking late 90's rock.... then I read Greenday and have to totally agree. I like the whisteling. Good acoustics. Enjoyable.

I'm with Derek on this, the song could use some verse/chorus differentiation. The whistle chorus IS catchy and would tend to set it apart from other stuff you hear on radio in this genre, which could be a good or bad thing depending on the intended use. I'm also hearing some unintentional stuff at the end, as BilG noted above, and there's something odd going on as the track seems to decrease in volume over time. The guitars and vocals sound good; nothing's overdone, but I keep waiting for the drums to kick in-so far, you've got a really long intro in search of a song, methinks.

hey.. yeah great whistling hook at the beginning.. so I'll say, yes, it does grab the listener. the song flows and I love the vocal delivery. a harmony or something in the chorus would be cool to add contrast. HTH
