Traditional Groups of Seven

Can you name all the components of these groups?
This is a quiz about traditional lists. For instance, rainbows span a continuous spectrum of colours but you only have to list Newton's sevenfold.
Some sequences might have different versions, in that case list the most common.
The seas are the "seven seas", which actually are oceans.
The classical planets are the things that were considered planets before the modern definition (i.e. in classical and middle ages).

First Oceans and Seas are not the same thing and nobody I know refers to the North Atlantic and South Atlantic/North Pacific and South Pacific as two different oceans, because they are the SAME OCEAN.

This is the list of the traditional Seven Seas (as in the idiom "sail the Seven Seas") which has been used for almost two centuries. There actually are different versions of the list, but this is the most common.

If you don't believe me, then please read some sources, for example

The 'seven seas' are whatever anyone wants them to be, and people in the Mediterranean area have been using the idiom 'the seven seas' since long before they knew about the existence of the Pacific ocean or the Southern Ocean.

I think you mean 'so'. Can you please explain to me what the planet one was about, I was confused as to why moon and sun were there and not Earth, etc. All in all a nice little quiz :)

Thank you! I added some explanations.

The classical planets are the objects that were considered planets in classical/middle ages, i.e. the "non-fixed objects visible in the sky".

The seventh note is Ti not Si.

I live in Italy and we use the traditional naming, so I'm sure it's Si. However, I also checked on Wikipedia and "Ti" doesn't appear in any list.

For those of us who studied music outside of Italy...and anyone of the billion people who watched "The Sound of Music"...it is "ti". Or there should at least be two acceptable answers for that.

And I'm only a history buff, not a scholar, but in over 50 years of reading, I've never seen the oceans referred to like that.
