“Morrissey was always getting sick, because he wouldn’t eat properly. He gave me a food shopping list once and all it had on it was crisps, chocolate and croissants. That was typical.” - Gill Smith (Rough Trade press officer)

Me when i accidentally hold the axe of lust and debauchery
It's very funny and interesting to me how Morrissey and Johnny describe 'Hand In Glove' very similarly AND differently.
They hardly ever discuss the meanings of the lyrics. Morrissey never says it is about them yet Johnny immediately understands that it is.
Both Johnny and Mozzer (and the whole world) are aware of the romantic aspects of the song. But Johnny never shies away from saying it's their song. Because it's reciprocated.
He says every romantic thing there is to say, and adds the word "friendship" in there as if to not raise any suspicion. As he always does because he practically has internalized homophobia.
Here is how Morrissey explains it to a fan in a letter:
And here is Johnny interpreting the song:
"It was a declaration."
We all know it's not "purely because"
"Whatever it was that we had(...)" at least he's not trying to fool us this time saying it was friendship.
Unique? "No, it's not like any other love, this one is different because it's us."
"(...)love and friendship and has a sense of going forward."
Friendship / being in love with each other contrast again.
And here is a couple of words from Mozzer about his feelings for the song.
