I love them all. I'm also listening to 'First of the gang to die' a lot, although I'm not as big a fan of solo Morrisey.

Very difficult to choose but I’d have to say ‘barbarism begins at hime’

Lyrically it is unfortunate that it describes how so many children were treated by parents at that time amd musically it’s one of the best outros in my opinion. Rourkes bass is unreal

Impossible to decide, favourite album though Hatful of Hollow, can't even be sure of that tbh. So many fantastic song's, what a band. That joke isn't funny anymore from meat is murder, there done it. Xx

I have listened and sang the lyrics to _he smiths for years but only recently I can’t get the lyrics of ‘panic’ to be about anything else but saville

If it’s not then it’s extremely uncanny

There simply isn't one i don't like, I saw them in '85 on the Meat is Murder tour, Morrissey 5 times since... I've been drawn to the track Asleep lately, I was listening to Louder Than Bombs and the lyrics struck a chord with what I'm going through...

"There Is A Light That Never Goes Out", "Reel Around The Fountain", "How Soon Is Now?" or "Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me"...too difficult to choose between them.

How soon is now. At the time it really spoke to me, lots of great songs. Tarnished by Morrissey turning into a sad and bitter old man.
