"Don't Let Him Waste Your Time" is a song by English singer and songwriter Jarvis Cocker. It was released as a first single from his debut solo album Jarvis on 8 January 2007,[1] reaching number 36 in the UK Singles Chart[2] and number 1 on the UK indie chart.[3]

Overview

Before being recorded for the album Jarvis in November 2006, the song appeared on Nancy Sinatra's self-titled 2004 album, along with "Baby's Coming Back to Me", which also made it onto Jarvis. The song samples the main riff from Dion’s song “Only You Know”.

Personnel

Richard Hawley plays electric guitar on the track, while Cocker's Pulp bandmate Steve Mackey plays bass. The track also features former Pulp member Antony Genn on backing vocals, and Martin Slattery of The Mescaleros on piano and saxophone.[4]

Music video

The music video, directed by Dougal Wilson, features Jarvis as a singing London taxicab driver.[5][6] More concerned with singing to the passenger than watching the road, the driver collides with many pedestrians and cyclists.
