My Hurling Days are Done Speedway Tomorrow Satan Rejected My Soul Southpaw I’m OK by Myself Margaret on the Guillotine Israel There’s a Place in Hell for Me and My Friends Oboe Concerto Some Say I Got Devil At Last I am Born You Know I Couldn’t Last

I'm OK By Myself (Never thought I'd ever rank this song so high. Another one I once hated, but I realized I listen to the most out of any of these tracks) Margaret on the Guillotine Israel (Me after YOR was released: I wish Morrissey would do more piano-based tracks; Me after listening to Israel...

My Hurling Days Are Done (Speedway is technically better, but this song is very meaningful to me, being released shortly after my last remaining parent passed away and at the beginning of Covid. It fit the moment for me) Speedway Dial-a-cliché Lenny's Tune (My favorite on California Son. It...

To Me You Are a Work of Art (The verses are meh, but oh does he sound great on those choruses) Tomorrow I Don't Mind if You Forget Me The Lazy Sunbathers You Were Good in Your Time Satan Rejected My Soul (One of the more throwaway tracks I really enjoy. Hurt only by a lackluster vocal...

I Know It's Gonna Happen Someday Let Me Kiss You Used to be a Sweet Boy It's Not Your Birthday Anymore (I used to hate this song, but it and most of YOR has been growing on me this last year or two) On The Street's I Ran (I think this one is a bit underrated. I find Jesse's guitar playing and...

I'll Never Be Anybody's Hero Now (The music's nothing special, but this might be my favorite song of his vocally speaking, particularly the ending. Morrissey's falsetto and his ability to flip between head voice and chest voice was better than ever during YATQ and ROTT era) Break Up the Family...

Life Is A Pigsty I Am Hated For Loving Darling I Hug A Pillow Suedehead (Yes, yes, I know. Suedehead is definitely better that Darling. I'm just bored of this track) Wide to Receive Driving Your Girlfriend Home That's How People Grow Up (Can't stand the music, but Morrissey sounds great on it)...

Why Don't You Find Out For Yourself Knockabout World (Another track where I find that I have inconsistent Morrissey opinions. I hate the repetitive chorus of Dagenham Dave yet love this track. Perhaps it's just the personal significance the song has for me. It was released on the same day as my...

In The Future When All's Well The More You Ignore Me the Closer I Get What Kind of People Live in these Houses? (The great backing track and tone of Morrissey's voice on this make me overlook the dreadfully rudimentary rhyming. I wonder why he has been using it for so long on so many tracks. Has...

Dear God, Please Help Me Alma Matters Spring Heeled Jim Reader Meet Author (Love the music and would rate this higher if it weren't for the lackluster vocal performance. While I love Morrissey's vocals on Vauxhall and I, that style didn't work as well on some of the Southpaw Grammar tracks) Love...
