OK, I guess its time for the answers. I am surprised so many people were stumped actually, I thought it would be quite easy. Most of these songs are recent releases.

1. Big Yellow Taxi (Take your pick of artist, most people have sung it)
2. Fake Tales Of San Francisco by Arctic Monkeys (My theme song)
3. Bang Bang You're Dead by Dirty Pretty Things
4. In the Morning by The Coral
5. Crazy by Gnarls Barkley
6. Leave Before the Lights Come On by Arctic Monkeys
7. She Moves in Her Own Way by The Kooks
8. I Wish I Was a Punk Rocker by Sandi Thom
9. Valerie by The Zutons
10. Bright Idea by Orson

And the winner is... Cynderbear with 10/10, well done!

lol Bill... it's the Generation Gap vs UK 'anything' :D Lucky for me we get as much Brit music as US music. And i prefer UK music, though if you could find a way to put Atomic Kitten in front of a double-decker that'd be much appreciated!
