5. Suspicious Minds - Elvis Presley

6. Castles Made Of Sand - Jimi Hendrix

9. Words Of Love - Mama Cass Elliot

10. Chantilly Lace - The Big Bopper

[smaller] Do I forsee a "departed artists" theme?[/smaller]

Excellent, Baz! I was thinking of the Buddy Holly song for #9, but Mama Cass works too. The theme I was thinking of is Artists who died young (from my point of view I consider 40ish young :) ) By the way, Jambalaya is the answer to the #3 hint.
