Songs everybody recognises but few actually know the names of them!

Ok, so i spent two hours trying to name the song sugar plum fairy (below). I hummed the tune to a good few people, everyone knew the song but no one could think of the name so i thought i'd start a thread to learn some of these sort of songs. So i'll start and ye may all know the songs but for me i knew the songs for a long time before i knew the name
skip to 1:40ish below for the best part



This one is probably very obvious but I didn't know it for years


If I think of anymore, I'll post them
