An amazing instrument

Just walked in from the British Library 20 minutes into the England-Sweden World Cup game and switched on the radio. I knew within a couple of seconds from the strain in the commentator’s voice that things weren’t going well, before I’d heard any actual information. Isn’t the human voice an amazing instrument?

(For anyone in Antartica the vocal strain is now diluted, since England are leading 1-0 at half-time. But Owen still has an injured knee, I should imagine.)
