Johnny Marr writes and records theme song and scores David Cross TV show.

 Johnny has written and recorded the theme song  ‘Life is Sweet’ , and the score for The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret ,a channel 4 sitcom 

written by David Cross (Arrested Development, Mr. Show) and Shaun Pye (Extras). The show's opening theme song "Life is Sweet" and incidental music throughout the series was written and recorded by Johnny Marr . The six-episode half hour original comedy series stars David cross as  American office temp and convenient liar named Todd Margaret who bluffs his way into a senior sales position heading up the London office for a new energy drink. Cross' out-of-control farce reaches epic proportions when his character's gaffes and misfortunes wreak havoc on the city of London.   "The cool thing about Todd Margaret is that, while a straight ahead comedy show, it tells a story that has a beginning and an end. Every episode starts the next morning after the previous episode so that the sense of inescapable impending doom is heightened exponentially with each subsequent show," said David Cross.  "There's no escape." 
The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret will be shown in the USA in October, and in the UK  in November.
