Well, he did release a solo album under another name I think, so maybe not that long.

Ah yes, I really like that song.

Reminds me that we're pushing pebbles instead of shifting boulders.

Jarvis Cocker is a lyrical genius simply for his Pulp stuff. It's just the icing on the cake that his solo stuff is just as good.

Did anyone hear that song he recorded for the last Harry Potter film? It was with 2 other big names, I can't remember who.

It was with Jonny Greenwood and Phil Selway from Radiohead on guitar and drums, and I think that Steve Mackey from Pulp played bass. They did three songs, Do The Hippogryff, This Is The Night and Magic Works.

I saw Rufus Wainwright kiss him on the mouth at a Leonard Cohen tribute show.
He is my fashion hero

Jarvis Cocker = The only good thing to come out of Britpop.

Although I still maintain that the Weird Sisters were supposed to sound like The Sisters of Mercy.

I'ce always thought that the Weird Sisters woul be like Disintegration era The Cure.

I named the daddy-longlegs spider in my locker at high school Jarvis, in honour of Mr. Cocker.  This was about the time he jumped on stage to stop the Michael Jackson performance.

Which is one of the single awesomest things to ever happen at an awards show.
