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).  :)

Okay, I've added one more word to each set.  The only problem is that a lot of these have one-word titles and so I had to just choose another word for those!  ;)
