Number 8 is 'I'm so Tired' by The Beatles, and I want to take a stab at letter C- Is it 'Mercy in You' by Depeche Mode?

c. "Inside Out" Eve 6

Number 10 is 'Life and how to live it' by R.E.M

I've been tossing that phrase around for about an hour until it finally hit me. I'm actually disappointed in myself for not getting it right off the bat since they are only my favorite band since high school, lol.
