The Smiths: every song ranked in order of greatness

As The Smiths' debut album turns 40, will we correctly arrange “the songs that saved your life” – or will we paint a vulgar picture?

Needless to say, debatable.

GOLDEN LIGHTS BETTER THAN MISERABLE LIE ????

What do they think will happen if they go against the grain and refrain from giving overrated songs such as Bigmouth and HSIN too much praise?

Ah yes I remember reading this rubble on The Smiths turns 40 thread.
To say the least I'm truly disappointed by this list, truly truly truly.
Makes me want to make my own.

Obviously, this is ranking based on the opinion of the author of the article. It's his opinion.

Needless to say, debatable.

Whenever I hear anyone use the expression 'needless to say', it never fails to bring Alan Partridge to mind.

Cracks me up every time

I know it's all subjective, and just someone's opinion, but classing Asleep as only the 59th best Smiths song is absolute nonsense. It's one of the most beautifully devastating pieces of music ever created.
