"How Soon Is Now?"
"Oscillate Wildly"
"The More You Ignore Me, The Closer I Get"
"Girlfriend In A Coma"
"Suedehead"
"Panic"
"There Is A Light That Never Goes Out"
"Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others"
"Sweet And Tender Hooligan"
"First Of The Gang To Die"

Those are the first ten songs that came to mind immediately. If I were to think about this, I'd probably come up with a different list, but I figure your first choices are usually right.
