I'd imagine so. Most people do, right? Well, so long as you play the music for them.

I'd say most, indeed.
I had to play a simplified version of William Tell Overature for orchestra before, and I was counting like crazy at the beginning, making sure I wasn't falling asleep.
And let me tell you, at the finale, crazy fast cello players + fast violin part=complete CHAOS. Haha, at least, in our orchestra!

I've never played the William Tell Overture, but I frequently tap it out [with my fingers xd ]. That is one song that can get stuck in my head very, very easily.

I'd go so far as to say that most children at least know the first few bars of the theme. Even baby toys feature that theme.
