How many of these songs can you name, along with the artist and/or source? (Using Google or other search engines is, of course, forbidden.) Comments are screened so that you can still try to guess even after the first person got it right, and I'll post the answers (with video links where applicable) later.
(I will only list the person who got it right first, except for partial credit/full credit situations. However, after I post the answers, I'll come back and unscreen all comments here so you can see how many you got correct even if you weren't the first.)
