I was just listening to "Southpaw" this evening and thinking that it really is one of Morrissey's most important songs.

And the last 15 seconds of the song when he's whispering "Help me...help me..." really bring tears to my eyes.
 
> 3 Late Night Maudlin Street

This song rules!

I don't feel like thinking about what my whole Top 5 is (because it changes ALL THE TIME), but "I Have Forgiven Jesus" might be the best of his solo career.

I'm amazed at how popular "This Is Not Your Country" is.
I thought I was almost alone in loving this song.
 
LaiD My soN In A BoX.....

In a box, three feet long
And I still don't know why
A short walk home becomes a run
And I'm scared
In my own country....

Its just hits the spoT so to speaK...

It's a wonderful song. Shame not many people have heard it.
 
I thought the political aspects of the song would have put people off.
I remember when it came out as the b-side of "Satan Rejected My Soul" and some fool of a reviewer, in Q I think it was, cited it as further proof of Morrissey's racism. He obviously hadn't bothered even listening to the song at all and just read the title. On such nonsense were the pillars of racist accusations erected.
 
my top 5 at the moment(it changes frequently):
1.Speedway
2.Spring-heeled Jim
3.Maladjusted
4.Trouble loves me
5.We'll let you know
 
And so the taLe goes onnnnnnnnn...

Isn't it always the case that the music press gets the 'wrong end of the stick ' with regards to Morrisseys lyrics. When have they eVer took the time to read and understand them properly?

I could brinG up Suffer Little Children as a priMe example... one of the most blatantly misunderstood songs in Morrisseys entire career. A poignantly sympathetic lament that should have been an A-SIDE... sighs!!!

karl, great choices! oh damn I forgot about Let The Right One In & Jack The Ripper. The problem with Moz songs is that there are too many great ones! Impossible to choose! Cheers!
