The ParisCreative Music Challenge Thread

So I used to run these challenges on Ars Technica (my main forum of choice) some years ago and I decided to resurrect it and bring it to over here for some fun. This first batch is pretty simple, all popular songs of their time, and pretty iconic sounds.

Rules, please put your answer in light font tags. No peeking and please no cheating on the interwebs. When someone has guess all the tracks I will name the winner.
