The Obvious Tune

Tempting as it may be when posting a song to a tune you're sure must be evident upon inspection to just say "to the obvious tune", the sad fact is few if any tunes are so univesally well known as to be obvious to everybody. The best thing to do is simply identify the tune regardless of what it is and avoid the almost inevitable "and that would be?" thread. See "To The Tune of... What??" by Mark Mandel.
