Besides those you and Anonymous got, I got "The Last Time I Saw Paris" for Midnight in Paris and "Birth of the Blues" for The Help, then I went here which lists them all:

The Tree of Life is "Alfie".

The Artist one is naggingly familiar. I know I know that song. I'll edit it in when I know it.

EDIT: The one about The Artist is "I Won't Dance" by Fred Astaire. Goddammit. That almost drove me crazy.

Help Identifying Songs

So, I'm working on the Oscar Ceremony section of my website and I need some help. Every time Billy Crystal hosted the Oscars, he did a medley of songs. I have all of the song spoofs from the all of his hosting jobs except one: the 84th. Here's a link to the YouTube video.

Can anyone help me identify all of them? I need the actual song names each was based on, not the spoof names. I've listed the songs I know already next to the appropriate films.

The order is:
The Artist
War Horse (Theme from Mister Ed)
Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close (Thanks for the Memory)
Moneyball
Hugo (That's Amore)
The Tree of Life
The Descendants
Midnight in Paris
The Help
