Charlie does, because he memorised the 'Countries of the World' song that originated on that Warner Brothers cartoon.
Over the summer we went to the PA Ren Faire, and saw the group 'The Rakish Rogues'. They were collecting money for charity and this man sitting near us gave $20 if one of the guys would sing that song. Apparently he'd done it the year previously.
Our Charlie, he who had previously memorised the Element Song, thought that was nifty, so I told him that I would give him $20 if he could memorise the song as well.
It took him until around November, but he did it.
At Christmas we went back to the Ren Faire for their Dickens Christmas thing, and one of the 'Rogues' was now playing Mr Fezziwig, and we had the chance to tell him about Charlie's feat, and he actually called Charlie on stage during one of the shows and had him do it. He was suitably impressed.
So, do I know all the countries? Probably not, but I know where I can go find out.
