#1 is the only solid, unchanging pick. The others could be substituted with at least another half dozen.
Oscillate Wildly
London Well I Wonder
Ask
Girlfriend in a Coma
This is a fantastic song.
Without the Morrissey! (She also does a great version of There Is a Light.)

I once ranked their collective output: Smiths, Morrisey solo, Marr solo:
The Queen is Dead
Louder than Bombs Bona Drag Strangeways, Here We Come
The Smiths Vauxhall and I
You Are the Quarry
Viva Hate
Your Arsenal
Meat Is Murder Years of Refusal
Ringleader of the Tormentors Call the Comet
Fever Dream Pts 1-4
The Messenger
Playland World Peace Is None…
I Am Not a Dog on a Chain
Southpaw Grammar
Maladjusted
Kill Uncle
Low in High School Boomslang California Son
I like Hatful of Hollow. I have probably played that over the years more than S/T, if that is fair to make the comparison.

I should have included Hatful of Hollow. It's a solid collection for sure.

I'd probably rank it just below Strangeways.

I might have them in some other compilation without that name. Either way, thanks!

No problem. They are different from the Troy Tate versions, in case you are thinking of them, they pre-date them.
Nope, I know the Troy Tate recordings. I have a couple compilations that have various demos on them—I'm wondering if there's overlap here.

Anyone know what Pablo Cuckoo refers to? I assume it's something mundane like it was recorded by someone called Paul Bird or something but I don't know what.
Anyway, top 5:
Paint a Vulgar Picture
The Queen is Dead
I Want the One I Can't Have
These Things Take Time

A friend of mine from undergrad days really loved, for some reason, the opening line, "At the record company meeting." Even if you think Morrissey was an exceptional lyricist, that doesn't seem … notable?

"At the record company meeting" is "cellar door" for people who can only eat extra mild salsa
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead
