Much of this IS danceable

"This was not released as a dance disc. But inquiring minds want to know if any of it is "danceable." Tracks 3, 5, 7, 8, 10, and 11 (marked with an asterisk) are beautiful to the ear, but not very useful for the feet. The rest of the titles are matched with an appropriate choice of dance (based on the rhythm and the tempo). I'm guessing "Home on the range" is a very slow waltz at about 28 BPM.
Here are the titles, duration, and a suggested dance:
Little inn, The, 2:53, VWaltz
Love Letters, 3:16, Rumba
Mississippi, 4:40, Swing*
I wish you love 2:45, Rumba
I love life, 4:00, Mixed tempos, maybe Bolero and Foxtrot?*
San Antonio Rose, 3:29, Foxtrot
Among my souvenirs, 3:13, Very slow*
San Francisco, 3:25, Maybe a Cha cha*
Swanee River, 2:22, Foxtrot
I'm in the mood for love, 2:46, Very slow*
Aranjuez, 6:13, Very slow, maybe as a Bolero?*
Very thought of you, The, 3:28, Foxtrot
Home on the range, 3:34, Waltz
Take your guitar, 4:31, Slow
Tango in Fernando's bar, 2:59, Tango
With all my heart, 2:40, VWaltz"
