"A Rush And A Push...", "The Queen Is Dead", "I Know It's Over", "Last night I Dreamt..." & "Sweet And Tender Hooligan".
 
Blimey, the quality of those songs is phenomenal.
Sad to say but hardly any 21st century Moz songs come anywhere near pretty much anything on this list.
My vote (FWIW) went to; Sweet and tender, Vulgar Picture, Somebody loved me, There is a light (and it never goes out), oopse and one other (can't see the flipping list!).

Oh, 'I know it's over' obviously!

Asleep
I Know It's Over
I Won't Share You
Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before
There Is A Light That Never Goes Out
 
Cemetry Gates
There Is a Light
Paint a Vulgar Picture
Queen is dead

stop me if you think that you've heard this one before...
 
A Rush And A Push And The Land Is Ours
Asleep
Cemetry Gates
Rubber Ring
There Is A Light That Never Goes Out

I thought I Know Is Over wouldn't need my help...
 
There is a light that never goes out
Shoplifters of the world, unite
Rubber ring
Stop me if you think you've heard this one before
Last night I dreamt that somebody loved me
 
that was difficult, but here they are;

cemetary gates
i know its over
paint a vulgair picture
shoplifters of the world unite and take over
the queen is dead
 
(Not necessarily in this order)

There Is A Light That Never Goes Out
The Queen Is Dead
I Know It's Over
Panic
Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me
 
so difficult to choose...

in no particular order...

a rush and a push and the land is ours
rubber ring
half a person
there is a light..
the queen is dead
 
This is hard ...

There Is A Light That Never Goes Out
I Know It's Over
The Queen is Dead
Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me
Rubber Ring
 
Some very tough decisions were made, however, I have went with:

Asleep
Half A Person
Rubber Ring
Shoplifters
There Is A Light
 
I don't know what the love affair with "Rubber Ring" is all about. It's an alright song but in my opinion it should be being trounced by "Stop Me..".
