  • "The Importance of Being Idle" is a song on the English rock band Oasis' 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, where it debuted at number one. It was also the first time that Oasis earned two successive number ones in the same calendar year. It was written by Gallagher sometime during the summer of 2004, before the band made their final attempt at recording what would become Don't Believe the Truth. He got the title from the book of the same name, which he found whilst cleaning out his garage (it belonged not to him but to girlfriend Sara McDonald).
  • "The Importance of Being Idle" es una canción escrita y compuesta por Noel Gallagher, guitarrista de la banda de rock británica Oasis.

También fue el primer single de Oasis en estar dos veces consecutivas en el número 1 el mismo año.

  • The Importance Of Being Idle on rock-yhtye Oasiksen kappale ja single, joka julkaistiin 22. elokuuta, 2005. Se nousikin välittömästi Ison-Britannian, Italian ja Japanin singlelistojen sijalle 1, ollen järjestyksessään yhtyeen 8 ykkössingle. The Importance Of Being Idlen laulaa Noel Gallagher joka on myös kirjoittanut kappaleen. Singlen b-puolia ovat Pass Me Down The Wine jonka on kirjoittanut Liam Gallagher ja Gem Archerin kirjoittama The Quiet Ones. Singlestä on julkaistu myös DVD versio, jolla on The Importance Of Being Idle kappaleen video ja mini dokumentti sen teosta. Singlen kansi on kuuluisan kansitaiteilija Simon Halfonin suunnittelema. Noel on sanonut, että inspiraatio laulun sanoihin tuli hänen omasta laiskuudestaan, ja että kappale kertoo laiskasta idiootista, joka rakastaa laiskana idioottina olemista. Toisen säkeistön lause "i begged my doctor for one more line", vaikuttaa viittaavan tositapahtumaan Noelin omasta elämästä hänen lopettaessa kokaiinin käytön vuonna 1998. Kappale löytyy myös yhtyeen "best of" -kokoelmalta Stop The Clocks (2006).
  • The Importance of Being Idle è una canzone della band inglese Oasis, estratta come secondo singolo da Don't Believe the Truth, sesto album del gruppo.

È la prima volta in cui gli Oasis hanno due singoli consecutivi alla vetta della classifica nello stesso anno, il precedente era stato Lyla. Il titolo del brano è tratto dall'omonimo romanzo del 2001 di Stephen Robins. La canzone è stata inclusa anche nel greatest hits del gruppo Stop the Clocks. Noel ha dichiarato anche che l'espressione "l'importanza di essere pigro" è un po' autobiografica.
