The Importance of Being Idle (song)

"The Importance of Being Idle" is a song by the English rock band Oasis from their sixth album, ''Don't Believe the Truth'', written and sung by lead guitarist Noel Gallagher. It was the second single released from the album in the UK, on 22 August 2005. The song was written by Gallagher in the summer of 2004, before the band made their final attempt at recording what would become ''Don't Believe the Truth''.
The song debuted at number one on the UK Singles Chart, staying there for one week, marking the first time that Oasis had ever earned two successive number ones in the same calendar year (having also charted at number one earlier in 2005 with "Lyla"). "The Importance of Being Idle" would prove to be the band's last UK number one prior to their break-up in 2009. Noel got the title from the book of the same name, which he found whilst cleaning out a garage (it belonged not to him, but to girlfriend Sara McDonald).
==Background==
In an interview with ''Q magazine'', Noel Gallagher stated that "The Importance of Being Idle" sounds like songs from two British bands, The Kinks and The La's. In particular, the guitar playing, as well as the sentiment expressed, is noticeably similar to The Kinks' "Sunny Afternoon" and "Dead End Street". He also said that the lyrics are inspired by his own laziness.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Importance Of Being Idle by Oasis Songfacts )〕 Additionally, the line "I begged my doctor for one more line" may be a reference to Noel's account of how he gave up cocaine in 1998.〔
The guitar sound is similar also to The La's B-sides "Clean Prophet". It also is a breakaway from the sound of Oasis's latter albums, especially the straight ahead rock and roll anthems of ''Heathen Chemistry''. The keyboard used on the pre-chorus sections was bought by bassist Andy Bell from the auction website eBay.
