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 279: Scandinavia (Morrissey/Boz Boorer)
I was bored
in a fjord
and I curse the heart and soul of Scandinavia
let the people burn
let their children cry and die in blind asylums
but then you came along
and you held out your hand
and I fell in love with you and Scandinavia
I kiss the soil
I hug the soil
I eat the soil
and I praise the God who made you
Stab me in your own time in Scandinavia
Un-protesting I'll die in Scandinavia
Pinned to a crime
in Trondheim
I despise each syllable in Scandinavia
let the people burn
let their children cry and die in blind asylums
but then you came along
and you held out your hand
and I fell in love with you and Scandinavia
I kiss the soil
I hug the soil
I eat the soil
and I praise the God who made you
Stab me in your own time in Scandinavia
I'd be so happy to die in Scandinavia
