The most basic thread imaginable (in fact, I posted it once before!)

Kuiper

Better than Marr
Why am I repeating a thread I did a long time ago? Because it was archived and I would have bumped it. But...considering how difficult it is to pick favorites, I'm sure almost everyone's lists will be different this time around. Mine in particular, that's why I'm spamming the board with the most basic thread imaginable...for a second time:

What are your top ten favorite Smiths and solo songs in different categories?

For me, solo:
1 - The National Front Disco
2 - The Teachers Are Afraid of the Pupils
3 - Alsatian Cousin
4 - Ammunition
5 - The Edges Are No Longer Parallel
6 - You Must Please Remember
7 - My Love Life
8 - Late Night, Maudlin Street
9 - Lifeguard Sleeping, Girl Drowning
10 - Speedway

And Smiths:
1 - I Won't Share You
2 - Shoplifters of the World Unite
3 - I Know It's Over
4 - The Boy with the Thorn in His Side
5 - Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me
6 - How Soon is Now?
7 - That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore
8 - Paint a Vulgar Picture
9 - A Rush and a Push and the Land is Ours
10 - Rubber Ring
