On Facebook, Morrissey published a list of his all-time favorite singles, mostly from the 1970s. (Maybe from when Moz first started getting serious about music?)
New York Dolls' 1973 song “Jet Boy” topped the list; according to Clashmusic.com, as a music-obssessed adolescent, Morrissey bombarded music magazine NME with letters about the band and wrote a fan biography. He was also instrumental in their reformation. Check out the complete list after the jump.
