I find them tough CF, I've been struggling with #5 all evening but nothing is coming to me....
how about if you added a fourth word for the ones that haven't been identified yet but make the fourth word a single word of the song title? Or would that really give it away?

I like your suggestion, Maddog. If you can give me a few minutes I will try to add a word from each of the song titles (where possible, at least). :)
