The Importance of Being Idle’ is the second single taken from Oasis’ No. 1 album ‘Don’t Believe The Truth’ and is the follow up to the bands recent No. 1 single ‘Lyla’. Written and sung by Noel Gallagher, the single is released on Big Brother Recordings on August 22nd on CD, DVD and 7”. Across the formats the single will feature two brand new tracks – a Liam song, ‘Pass Me Down The Wine’ (produced and mixed by Dave Sardy) and the Gem penned, ‘The Quiet Ones’ (produced and mixed by the band). The DVD single will feature the video, the ‘making of’ documentary, as well as album and demo versions of the single.
“Imagination is more important than knowledge”. (Albert Einstein)
The video for “The Importance of Being Idle” will receive it’s world premiere on Channel 4 (UK ) at 7.55pm on Friday 1st July. Featuring Welsh stage genius, Rhys Ifans, fresh from an award winning performance as Peter Cook in “Not Only, But Also”, the film sees Ifans as a Billy Liar character in a 60’s London setting reminiscent of such classics of British cinema as “Up The Junction” and “Saturday Night and Sunday Morning”. Ifans plays a funeral director high kicking his way through a New Orleans style funeral procession as bemused onlookers watch the procession and demonstrates an unnerving talent for dance routines.

Just as we suspected!
But August 22nd? Seems a long time between 1st and 2nd singles. I would have thought late July. Oh well. I'm prediciting 3 UK singles from this album, so they're probably stretching it out so the 3rd and final UK single ("Let There Be Love" is my prediciton. Let the betting commence!) will come out around Chirstmas.
I've heard "Pass Me Down the Wine" (am I the only one who likes that song?) and I'm looking forward to Gem's offering.
