The Best Smiths Song Ever, Semi-Final 2

[Sooty]

Not quite as hard as the first semi final
There is a light
Rubber ring
Shoplifters
stop me
panic
Im dissapointed Bigmouth didnt get through

 

[Sunday Girl]

Can't pick a top five, but 'i know it's over' is number one definitely.

 

[Roma De Moz]

This one is very difficult, my decision cant be as clear cut, I simply dont have the decisive power to single out just one! Ok, here goes, in no particular order my top three are:

• 
  There Is A Light That Never Goes Out

• 
  Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me

• 
  Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before

Half A Person
I Know It's Over
Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me
Shoplifters Of The World Unite
There Is A Light That Never Goes Out

 

[Poco Innocente]

what a bout ASLEEP you fecking cretins!?!?!?!?

 

[Still Tired]

It was pretty easy to chose my absolute favourite's out of that:

Asleep
Half a Person
I Know it's Over
Last Night I Dreamt
There is a Light...

I do find it interesting how few people's choices match up exactly, nice to have the variety in people's tastes I think.

 

[lilybett]

Panic
Paint A Vulgar Picture
Last Night I Dreamt
Half A Person
I Know It's Over

 

[Johan de Witt]

How many songs are going through to the final? 5?
I want to see A Rush and a Push there

Half of these songs will go to the final, so the first 7 of each semi-final plus the best performing number 8 of the 2 semi-finals.
We will have 15 finalists, just like we had in the Best Morrissey Song-poll.

A Rush is at 6th place now, so it has a real chance of making it.
I would prefer Paint A Vulgar Picture in the final though

 

[DAnn Coulter]

Asleep

Cemetry Gates

There Is A Light That Never Goes Out.....duh!!

Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before

Panic

It took me about a couple minutes to decide between Stop Me.., Panic, Rubber Ring and Shoplifters.....In the end Ring and Shoplifetrs were left out.....

 

[Poco Innocente]

i really am baffled! how is it so little of you rate Asleep? The lyrics...the music...surely it's perfection?

 

[Houdini]

i really am baffled! how is it so little of you rate Asleep? The lyrics...the music...surely it's perfection?

Yes, we know, but these are more perfect:

Cemetry Gates
Half A Person
Paint A Vulgar Picture
Stop Me...
The Queen is Dead

And I haven't even mentioned There Is A Light...

 

[Poco Innocente]

tut! I would agree Cemetry Gates is a cracker...but the rest

 

[Disappointed]

"Asleep"
"Cemetry Gates"
"Shoplifters of the World Unite"
"Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before"
"There Is A Light That Never Goes Out"

 

[Inttenssity]

(four of the same as Disappointed - soo close to an exact match)
Rush/Push
Cemetry
Shoplifters
Stop Me
There is a Light

 

[Kuiper]

Oops, I accidentally voted for six songs. Please discount one vote for Stop Me.
