Notes/Description:
Original Soundtrack
JARV IS… have written and performed the original
soundtrack for the critically acclaimed BBC TV series,
‘This Is Going To Hurt’, based on Adam Kay’s awardwinning
international multi-million selling memoir of the
same name.
The soundtrack was recorded at Narcissus Studios,
London by Drew Dungate-Smith during various sessions
throughout 2021. Most of the performances are live takes
featuring the entire band – often recorded whilst they
watched the playback of key sequences from the series.
Each episode features at least one song with lyrics by
Cocker, who had access to the scripts (adapted by Adam
Kay from his own book) from an early stage in the
production process.
JARV IS… is a band comprising Jarvis Cocker, Serafina
Steer, Emma Smith, Andrew McKinney, Adam Betts and
Jason Buckle. The soundtrack consists of a mixture of
songs and instrumental pieces, with Cocker and Steer
being the main composers.
Cocker is quoted as saying, “It’s our love song to the
NHS.”
Lead Director Lucy Forbes says, “As one of England’s
finest lyricists and songwriters we could not have been
more thrilled to have Jarvis Cocker and his band write
original songs and score for ‘This Is Going To Hurt’. His
incisive wit, keen sense of observation and ability to write
beautiful heartfelt melodies was the perfect fit. His music
immediately intertwined with the fabric and tone of the
show and took it to a whole new level, getting right to the
heart of the pathos, pain and joy of working at the NHS. It
was a huge privilege to work with him on this project, and I
can’t imagine ‘This Is Going To Hurt’ without him.”
