selected the song as his fourth Desert Island Disc during his 2015 appearance on the show. He prefaced it with "one of the greatest songs ever written." Packaging Morrissey had specific instructions on how he wanted the "Hand in Glove" single to be packaged. He told Rough Trade's art department that the single should have a paper label centre with four vents encircling the middle, in homage to singles from the 1960s.
