I do not believe I didn't guess some of these. Especially "Wild Rover" (since I listen to it almost daily!) Some of them I knew, but I couldn't think of the artist. (Like "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" and "The Battle of New Orleans" - and I was trying to attribute an artist to "The Pirates of the Carribean Song".) I should have come in with what I knew anyway. :)
