Well, this was a real knock-down, drag-out fight. There’s blood on the walls (from a cow, perhaps), but I have a winner for the coveted top slot. Moz’s best batch of lyrics settled it. Lyrics that we faithful would scratch into our school desks “with a fountain pen”, these were songs I knew by heart and would recite like catechisms. And if that was not enough, the blink-and-you-miss-it musical urgency clinched it.

1. Meat is Murder
2. The Smiths
3. TQID
4. Louder Than Bombs
5. Strangeways
6. Hatful of Hallow

Aside: Their live album "Rank" does not get enough props.

I had completely forgotten about this, had it been delayed lately or something? I wish I had noticed the Dylan one earlier, I guess I'd glossed over that. Really been loving Blonde On Blonde lately, it's starting to catch up to Bringing It All Back Home for me. This is a Smiths thread though.


I'm terribly sorry, I missed this and only just noticed it whilst tallying up the votes. Yeah, it's been delayed due to time constraints. I'm posting a new one every Saturday now.

Also, I just realised I haven't posted my own vote yet (I didn't do one for Bob Dylan either but didn't noticed till after the fact) so my personal rankings would go.

Louder Than Bombs
Hatful Of Hollow
S/T
The Queen Is Dead
Strangeways, Here We Come
Meat Is Murder

Results should be up around the top of the hour.

Yay! I don't like the Smiths and I didn't vote but this was interesting and now I am inspired to listen to their debut finally.

I'm looking forward to what is next. Maybe Avalanches..??
