BUT absolutely refuses to play any Pulp tunes...Sigh. NME reports: Jarvis Cocker closed his Shockwaves NME Awards Show tonight (February 17) with a cover of Black Sabbath's heavy metal classic 'Paranoid'. The star wowed the crowd at his sold-out London Astoria show, which had earlier seen performances from Bat For Lashes and Annuals.
Cocker, whose set revolved mainly around tracks from his 2006 solo debut 'Jarvis', was in exuberant form, telling jokes and asking punters if they were going to the G.A.Y. nightclub taking place at the venue afterwards. The singer, backed by a five-piece band including former Pulp bassist Steve Mackey, also cheerfully dismissed a request to play his former band's classic single 'Common People', saying, "This band are not Pulp." The star also covered Talking Heads' 'Heaven' from their 1979 album 'Fear Of Music'.
