Je n'egrette rien

Thought it was time for another 'Egrets' quiz. Panic not, the questions will not be in French, the title just fits the theme (well, allowing for the difference in spelling)! Please join me in another meander through the world of music and words.

Egrets? I've Had A Few

I'm sure you recognise the quiz title as a line from the song 'My Way', with the first letter removed.
Here are some more lines from songs treated in a similar manner. All you have to do is answer the question, whether you recognise the song or not!
