Morrissey lists his 13 favourite singles of all time

New York Dolls come up trumps, unsurprisingly

Morrissey has revealed his 13 favourite singles of all time – with New York Dolls‘ 1973 release ‘Jet Boy’ coming top of the pile.

Last month the former Smiths singer revealed his 13 favourite albums, and has now posted his ‘supreme 13 singles’ on his official Facebook page, Facebook.com/morrissey.

The frontman is a long-time admirer of New York Dolls. As a youngster he had a book about the band published and also used to head up the UK branch of their fan club.
