'"Wasted Time"' is a song by Fuel and the lead single from their fourth studio album 'Angels & Devils', released on June 19, 2007. Written by guitarist Carl Bell, it is the first single by the band to feature new lead singer Toryn Green. New Fuel drummer Tommy Stewart was unable to perform on the record as he had other obligations to fulfill, so longtime Mtley Cre drummer Tommy Lee performed drums on the track.Matera, Joe: [http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/interviews/interviews/fuel_were_excited_about_a_whole_new_chapter_in_the_bands_progression.html Fuel: 'We're Excited About A Whole New Chapter In The Band's Progression']" 'UltimateGuitar.com.'
