I always think that Johnny's and Morrissey's supposed closeness has been exaggerated by them in the past. I can't imagine that Moz talked to Johnny about every problem he had or much about emotions (the song "I keep mine hidden" would suggest as much). I remember reading somewhere that he could better talk with women about all kind of emotions anyway which I find quite fascinating. Must be the result of growing up surrounded by women. It's also quite telling that none of Marr's friends did click with Morrissey. They said that they accepted him because Marr obviously liked him but not much more which is rather sad. Must be awful to always feel like a fifth wheel.
Agree. Not saying they weren't close but I think it's been made to much of. The press likes to play up an angle, of course Morrisseys in love with him, and Morrisseys was probably very excited to have found a sympatico talented musical partner and well can get a bit overly romantic at times. Especially in those days. I think morrissey was more enamored by the idea of having a partner and conquering pop music in classical style like he'd always dreamed of

You can love someone without there being true, forever enduring friendship underneath, the same as you can have people in your life you perfectly like but it never strikes your heart
There are different kind of love
I think these two fell into step with eachother... musically seeing eye to eye; Morrissey opened up a lot, Marr was open and felt protective, a symbiotic relationship
And to outsiders of course - and I mean the press and fans - it looks like "love", people judge by what they know.
Angie certainly never felt threatened. It is forgotten that Andy Rourke was Marr's best friend - why did nobody say they were in love? Marr stuck with him through smack and sober times.
Answer: everyone has always loved to gossip about the outsider, Morrissey here.
No - it's NOT like any other love - it was difference because it was theirs.
Well, a member of the Healers told a different story as related to him by Marr. But it's all conjecture, of course...

You said the same in this thread. Just don't mention it if you aren't going to tell the whole story.

Don't click this link, anybody. It doesn't reveal anything except the poster claiming to have a Healers story is lying. They may now claim they aren't lying, but the lack of substance speaks volumes, and we aren't interested anymore.
