The Puzzle Song must be Marie Provost by Nick Lowe: "Dachshund devours actress". Now I'll listen to the missing songs and fail to recognise any of them as usual

I think Chris is right. Do I score a 1/2 point for getting Nick Lowe? :-)

I was impressed that you got Nick Lowe from that little snippet, even if not quite nailing the right song.

The multi-layers of gorgeous acoustic guitars gave it away. Nobody else records acoustic guitars quite like Nick Lowe.

Chris has it! And has the clue right, too. Nick Lowe's grisly "Marie Provost", from his great, recently enhanced debut album Jesus of Cool.
Old Davy came close.
Lowe got the actress's name wrong, by the way; she was Marie Prevost. And she was from Ontario, Denver, and Los Angeles, so probably didn't speak with a Bronx accent, as Chuck Palahniuk has it in Snuff, and it was alcoholism, eating disorders, and depression that killed her career, not the advent of the talkies. She did have her arms and legs chewed up by her poor dog, though.

"Step Right Up" by Tom Waits is correct. (I thought that would be one of the first ones guessed.)
