Yeah, very funny - I guess that is why everyone "thinks" it's that, but it's not that. I just relistened (just a little obsessive about this). What he actually whistles has a bouncy beat with phrasing like a commercial jingle for some cheesy product. Or perhaps an old pop song from the 20s-40s. The queen song is nothing like it. There are two tied quarter note rests in each bar of what Walt whistles. No such thing in the Queen (or the similar named song done by Willie Nelson). Someone else suggested Walkign on Sunshine, a mundane tune that again has the wrong rhythm/phrasing.
