Thud got two of the ones I recognized. Although #2 sounds like it could by “China Girl” by either Iggy Pop or David Bowie.
Damn, only one that I know remains unguessed…
#10 is “Don’t Fear the Reaper” by Blue Oyster Cult. (I don’t know how to make an umlaut show up in a blogger comment. :))
#8 is ‘Peaches’ by The Presidents of the United States of America
Oh, and #1 is ‘City of Dreams’ by Talking Heads
Oh you office people and your “holidays”….
#6 is Call Me the Breeze by… well, not sure. The version I have is Tom Petty but I’m thinking that’s probably not it.
