The Ballad of Davy Crockett
In my head 'cause I saw The Fantastic Mr. Fox a while back, and it's used in the opening credits. I can't find much info about this version of the song out there, but it's a resonant tune, lodged in the brains of many of us born in the States in the post-WWII era through maybe my generation. I wonder how many Gen Y'ers and younger know it.
Artist: The Wellingtons
Year: 1954 (original)

Q, the link didn't work, but I think I got it - is it the TMBG version? Super cute!
