Your top 10 Morrissey solo songs of all time

I couldn’t even comment on a Smiths top ten 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Or could I 😬😬

Would be interested, if you felt like having a go. : - )

Also would be interested to hear how other's lists might change, if they included The Smiths (as Light Housework and I have done).
 
Smiths top ten , version 1

1. Death of a disco dancer
2. Last night I dreamt
3. Betty is dead
4. A rush and a push
5. Rusholme
6. I don’t owe you
7. Bigmouth
8. Sheila
9. Shirtlifters
10. Half a person

1. Now My Heart is Full
2. Speedway
3. Seasick, Yet Still Docked (with the caveat that it's the version that was played live circa 2009, which I prefer to the near exclusion of every other version. The album version is my least favorite by a country mile)
4. Everyday is Like Sunday
5. Late Night, Maudlin Street
6. Southpaw
7. Life is a Pigsty (which, together with Jack the Ripper, initiated me into Mozdom)
8. I'd Love to (though I haven't listened to this one very much at all in the 10+ years- it's too poignant)
9. Oh Well, I'll Never Learn
10. Lifeguard Sleeping, Girl Drowning

That list is probs my worst top ten
Mozz songs 😲😲😲
 
Surely there are one or two that you hold a bit closer to your heart than others? That you return to more often? That mean more to you personally?

I guess like most we hold the earlier ones closer, but that has more to do with who we were at that time rather than the albums. I mean, someone just getting into Morrissey now and got turned onto him first by hearing Low In or Not A Dog might hold those albums closer than say Viva, etc. That’s not to say that they wouldn’t enjoy the earlier work too.
 
A red down thumb to Ket is like a red rag to a bull .
Release your Mozz top ten Ket ...
solo demands it ... Now 😁😁😁
 
The Last Of The Famous International Playboys
November Spawned a Monster
Seasick, Yet Still Docked
Speedway
Jack the Ripper (live)
Lucky Lisp
Piccadilly Palare
Come Back to Camden
Once I Saw the River Clean
Nobody Loves Us

Geez thats hard, it'll change tomorrow (or in an hour from now)
 
How very pretentious and very predictable of Ket not to mention her top ten, but then to comment on others .
Yet another display of how high and mighty she floats above the rest of us.
Such a silly girl
 
Not really in any order and subject to change in 10 mins...

First Of the Gang....
Suedehead
Interesting Drug
National Front Disco
Boxers
Crashing Bores
Knockabout World
Seasick, Yet Still Docked
 
I will never understand people saying their lists will change in an hour or in a day. Are you that fickle? Don’t you know yourselves? Of course, we all love tons and tons of Moz songs, but surely there are a limited number that means just a little bit more? That you love just a little bit more? That you find yourselves coming back to more often?
 
only 10... maybe these:
I´ve changed my plea
There is a place in hell
Lucky lisp
November
Maladjusted
Yes, I am blind
My dearest love
Christian Dior (yes!)
Jacky´s only happy
Crashing bores
