You definitely have better wording than me.
I guess this thread is a great resource of "What song should I port" stuff. Some of them are actually even not that hard to do.
The term "porting with ears" is... hard (at least for me?). It's literally disassembling a compiled program with your musical brain, and you can't use a computer program to do such a boring job, due to the nature of music.
I am not saying it's impossible. I use other ways to achieve it: disassemble the music binary code directly (if the game using MIDI-like format to store music), asking help for people who have better ears (eg. taking MIDI from sites like vgmusic.com) or even asking the original author for the music score.
Also, there is an interesting article about "porting with ears". Sadly it's not in English, but I guess Google Translate works here.

Well, no MIDIs are available in VGMusic and I don't think there's someone who would be interested in porting a song by ear from this game. It's the same reason as for why there are no songs from Super Mario Odyssey.
