Air On The G-string

A piece of "off-color" music dat celebrates da crude practice of wolf-whistling so hard when a skimpily-clad chick walks by dat she actually feels da wind-blast from your whooshy admiring-vocalization on her bare butt.

If J.S. Bach heard "what they did to his song" --- i.e., da bawdy "Air On The G-string" butcher-job on his famous and clean-themed "Orchestral Suite No. 3 in D major" --- he'd so totally be turning over in his grave!
