May 3, 200718 yr Author Good to see even after 20 years since they disbanded, The Smiths have finished highly in this poll with There Is A Light That Never Goes Out (4th), How Soon Is Now? (7th), This Charming Man (11th) & Panic (21st). Which Smiths / Morrissey song absent from this list do you think should have been in the Top 50?
May 5, 200718 yr Hand In Glove would be up there for me, that's my favourite. Stop Me If You've Heard This One Before, The Boy With The Thorn In His Side and of course the obvious This Charming Man would all be Top 50 for me. Up The Bracket and Don't Look Back Into The Sun by The Libertines would be my top 2 :lol:
