I'm a big fan of Barney's whooping, always have been, and wondered whether any of you have your own favourite examples of his whoops. My current no 1 whoop is Crystal, Hyde Park 3.54....sublime!
Barney's best whoops?

My favorites are when he starts getting into BLT , though recently they've been converting from whoops to "WOAH!".

I dig this too as a fave...
My other fave is the random 'HAH's on occassion during Atmosphere; it's like 'fuck you world, we survived this long when no-one thought we would'... :)
My favorite is the 'HO?' in Krafty at Hyde Park.
Is it where you wanna be - HO?
Just hilarious

His noises during the 87 Glasto BLT are classic. I love the "OOH!" immediately before he starts singing.
Reading 98 True Faith - Barney's whistling just before crashing back into the chorus is a nice addition.
I love it when Barney whoops and whistles.Also loved it when around the time Low Life was out he used to put "BABY" at the end of some verses when singing live.He even manages to get one in at the end of subculture on the album. ![]()

Have to agree with that for live versions.
On record, Age of Consent is impressive in it's understatement.
Face Up?
("I..can't bear the thought of you HOO!")
Like Michael jackson only not toe-curling to listen to!
The whoops on TBTHOG on 316 are rather amusing. I always thought the single version needed some whoops in it.

I always thought he whispers "bye bye".
