In 2007, and early 2008, we put up polls for all 234 then released Morrissey and The Smiths-songs. More than 40,000 votes were cast and this resulted in The Morrissey/Smiths Top 100, or indeed, The Morrissey/The Smiths Top 234. In 2009/2010 we updated this chart with the 25 new songs that were released in 2008-2010. The final results of 2010, the 'Top 259', can be viewed here. Now, 4 years on, many people have asked me to continue with the polls as since the last one 25 new Morrissey-songs have been released.
So we'll start with the songs that were released in 2011, 2012 and 2013 and we'll end with the 18 songs from World Peace Is None of Your Business.
So here it goes. Let's hope for as big a turn-out as in 2007 and 2010 and, once again, vote with your heart, not with your mind.
Song 282: Forgive Someone (Morrissey/Jesse Tobias)
Use a weapon of words
or a fight with your fists
but can you forgive someone?
stand your ground and persist
and be the last one to blink
but can you forgive someone?
and if you do
I'll run to you
betray you with a word
I would slit my own throat first of all
I will
The black peat of the hills
when I was still ill
see this mess and forgive someone
and then recall if you can
how all this even began
forgive someone
and if you do
I'll run to you
betray you with a word
I would slit my own throat first of all
I will
Our truth will die with me
our truth will die with me
shorts and supports and faulty shower heads
at track and field
we dreamt of our beds
in the bleachers you sit with your legs spread
smiling
here's one thing you'll never have
our truth will die with me
our truth will die with me
our truth will die with me
