earworms, II

You know how some families/offices have 'curse jars'? You have to put in a quarter or some set amount if you curse. Then the office/family gets to spend the proceeds on some treat or other.

We need a 'whistle jar' in this office. There's a mega-hyper, micromanager-type guy here (not my boss, praise be) who whistles a lot. Which isn't so bad, except for his selections... I believe we've trained him not to whistle Christmas carols until Thanksgiving. But his stand-by, his go-to song, his raison d'etre, is "Seasons in the Sun." Someone just mentions the title, and I have a mental music file of this guy whistling in my ear for hours.

Aiiiieeeeeee! Anybody got some Wiggles or Barney to help me out here?
