That was the one I would have put my finger on as universally recognisable, yes :-)
They're mostly 78rpm recordings, and I wouldn't expect anyone to get No. 8 (Lord, You Made the Night Too Long -- although some Googling seems to show that it was later covered by both Bing Crosby and Dean Martin -- or No.1, I Must Have That Man.
No.2 comes from "No, No Nanette" and might be familiar, No. 3 is a Deanna Durbin number from "Spring Parade", No. 4 is quite well known, and No. 5 I've actually got the sheet music for, though it's another Jack Hylton recording: Let the people sing.
No.7 is one of the others that might be guessable... No. 9, "Love's Garden of Roses", is written by Haydn Wood (composer of "Roses of Picardy"), who specialised in parlour songs about gardens, flowers and birds, and was recorded here as a duet by Anne Ziegler and Webster Booth, famous married singing partners; No. 10 I associate with Evelyn Laye (who first sang it on stage in "The New Moon") though the actual recording I was listening to is by Rudy Vallee.
