===Recording===
<blockquote>
 
Track two, Glamorous Glue!<br>
 
Morrissey asked for a tune similar to Bowie's Jean Genie. No small task!<br>
===Release===
So, morphed 3 songs to come up with this one...
 
Shoplifters/Jean Genie and some 70's rock song that had a sliding guitar that inspired the intro/outro."
