That song everyone knows from the circus... does it have a name? And all those piano songs that became cliche... like Fur Elise, Chopsticks, and The Entertainer. I think they're the piano store counterparts of Stairway to Heaven.

The motif to Beethoven's Ninth would be my guess.

How about that two-note song of the black-capped chickadee.
