    Darn!

    I skipped that one somehow! Thought I had answered them all!

    7. Fiddler on the Roof

    10. Bear With Me

    Excellent job, Scheherazade! .... except for 4 & 10.
    Clue: It's more acute than migraine!!
    And for #10 it's the story of friendship and adventure shared by 11-yr-old boys; the soundtrack is of the same title.

    Barbara got it right for #8!!

    10. Stand by me?

    Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. ~ Mark Twain

    #10 -- Stand By me??

    Edit: Vheissu posted faster than me, I was guessed the same title.
    Charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul.

    4. Misery?
    O schaurig ists übers Moor zu gehn,
    wenn es wimmelt vom Heiderauche,
    sich wie Phantome die Dünste drehn
    und die Ranke häkelt am Strauche.

    Annette von Droste-Hülshoff (1797 - 1843) (see avatar) Der Knabe im Moor/The Lad in the Moor

    vheissu and Madhuri for #10!

    Sorry, it's not Misery for #4. It's not about a pig .... the 'acute pain' in the clue is more evocative of a bee!
