Also why does it sound different when it is poured from a kettle?

in near boiling water, some of the water has already become a gas and has escaped, that's why there are bubbles. the water then tastes different because there is a higher concentration of impurities because there is less water. it's like orange squash, if you add less water, then you get a different taste.
the sound is just some of the steam escaping, if you mean the whistling sound, than that is the steam escaping between the edge of the kettle and the water pouring out of it.

It really shouldn't since water is water.
The reason it sounds different is that when hot water is poured from a kettle, the escaping steam causes a hiss.

Who drinks water that is nearly boiling??? Not you I hope. Water that has been boiled and cooled tastes different because it has less oxygen in it than water straight from the tap.

Due to the oxygen content. Why do you drink boiling water, surely that will end in tears?

Because it's had the air taken from it, boiled away, that's why after boiling the remainder should be thrown away, never boil it twice.

a)Because your tongue is burning,
b) the sound difference is because you are adding a slight amount of energy to the hot water and some of the water is turning to steam.

nothing!
generally, that chages of taste or anymore are dued to the fact that the liquid have been stored in this or that recepient.
