    The Moz/Smiths Top 100 - FINAL RESULTS 2014

    Average score of 7.55 for the 12 album songs. Looking at the other thread, that put it 5th in Morrissey's solo career, after Vauxhall and I, Your Arsenal, Viva Hate and You Are the Quarry. Not bad.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100 - FINAL RESULTS 2014

    Great to see two new songs in the top 100, and I think they're the right two. Shame Smiler with Knife is so low - for me it's up there with his very best - but I can understand why it's a bit marmite. And The Kid's a Looker is now his worst song ever. To be fair, I think that's probably right...

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 284: ART-HOUNDS (FINAL SONG)

    I love this. It has so much energy, and there's a raw urgency to Moz's vocals - and such a great falsetto! The last minute or so is incredible. Most exciting song he's put out for years.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 282: FORGIVE SOMEONE

    I like this. Wonder who it's about?

    Is There is a Light That Never Goes Out actually anyone's favourite?

    Yep, it's mine. Best song ever written.

    Is "World Peace is None of your Business" the worst Morrissey album ever

    Not even close - my fourth favourite after Vauxhall and I, Your Arsenal and Viva Hate, and certainly a better album than Quarry. Lyrically, Smiler With Knife, Mountjoy and Oboe Concerto are his best work for many years - love those songs.

    Best Album Since VAUXHALL AND I?

    WPINOYB for me. Quarry has four good singles and Camden, but three or four very weak tracks. World Peace is a more interesting and consistent work, if less accessible.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 275: SMILER WITH KNIFE

    Several tracks on this album are "growers", but this more than any other. Possibly the best lyric on the album, and the most interesting piece of music. A strange, threatening 10.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 274: KISS ME A LOT

    Kiss my face!

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 272: I'M NOT A MAN

    Baffling intro aside, this is really lovely. Possibly the best song on the album, and the one I relate to the most.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 271: NEAL CASSADY DROPS DEAD

    Still no really sure what he's singing about, but it sounds great. 9.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 270: THE BULLFIGHTER DIES

    Another one that's grown on me. I find the puns quite charming now, and I love the spirit of it. Great fun. 8.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 269: EARTH IS THE LONELIEST PLANET

    Wow - as it stands, this is ranked below The Harsh Truth of the Camera Eye. It's not that bad, surely?

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 269: EARTH IS THE LONELIEST PLANET

    This one has really grown on me. I know it's Moz-by-numbers and rationally I should give it a 6, but for whatever reason I like it more than that. So 7.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 268: ISTANBUL

    Moonlight jumping through the trees sunken eyes avoiding me I really, really like this. Great lyrics, music, vocal - the whole package. If it had been given a "proper" single release, it would have been his best since First of the Gang to Die. A real highlight of the album. 9.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 267: WORLD PEACE IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS

    I do think it's a great album, despite my problems with this track - definitely my favourite album since Vauxhall. It's really only this one and Kick The Bride Down The Aisle that I think are subpar.

    The Moz/Smiths Top 100, Part 267: WORLD PEACE IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS

    Musically it's nice, and Morrissey's voice sounds great, but the lyrics ... It seems to have been written for Russell Brand to use as intro music for his next live show. I strongly dislike the "do not vote" sentiment. So I can't give it more than a 6, I'm afraid.

    Why Maladjusted 2009 version just doesn't work

    Lost, I Can Have Both and The Edges Are No Longer Parallel are all wonderful, while I think Papa Jack is one of the worst thing's he's ever recorded. The 2009 version is a bit too long, though, and could really do without Sorrow Will Come in the End. Overall I think it's an improvement, though.

    Least favourite songs from each Moz solo album?

    Viva Hate: Bengali in Platforms Kill Uncle: Found Found Found Your Arsenal: We Hate It When Our Friends Become Successful Vauxhall and I: Billy Budd (and it's not a bad song by any means!) Southpaw Grammar: Do Your Best And Don't Worry Maladjusted: Sorrow Will Come In The End You Are The Quarry...
