Jarvis wants to write Eurovision song

Jarvis Cocker has revealed his desire to have a chance to write a song for Eurovision.

The artist admitted his secret during an interview on FiveLive, following speculation that Morrissey has been appointed to pen Britain's entry for this year.

"The door is always open if they want to ask me," he said. "I've always wanted to write one for them. Maybe I'll do it next year."

Reports that the former Smiths frontman will sing the entry as well as compose it have started to circulate, despite the fact that the original rumours of his writing it are as-of-yet unconfirmed.
