The half-hour film titled, The Greatest Unknown Rock 'n' Roll Star,[3] was directed by filmmaker Andy Lee, who later worked for a year as Wolfe's manager (2006–2007).
Wolfe had written the song in the mid 1990s and recorded a demo with his old school friend and musical collaborator, Julian Taylor.
[6] Despite the success of the single, which was nominated for an Ivor Novello Award for songwriting,[7] the pair received relatively little money.
On 12 July 2008, Wolfe joined Doherty on stage during his solo show at the Royal Albert Hall and they performed "For Lovers" together.
Wolfe is listed as a co-writer of various songs for Doherty's band Babyshambles, including "Back from the Dead" and "Sticks and Stones" from Down in Albion, "UnBiloTitled" from Shotter's Nation, and "Stranger in My Own Skin", which appears as a bonus track on Babyshambles' 2013 album Sequel to the Prequel.
Wolfe is credited as co-writer of Gunga Din which appeared on the Libertines' 2015 album Anthems for Doomed Youth.
On 28 September 2010, Wolfe was charged with possessing and supplying cocaine, whilst Doherty was charged with possession, in a police investigation into the death of documentary filmmaker Robyn Whitehead (also spelled Robin Whitehead), a member of the wealthy Goldsmith family, who overdosed and died in Wolfe's flat.
