"L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N." was the lead single from Last Night on Earth, the third album from English folk band Noah and the Whale, and it arrived as a download in January 2011 with a spring in its step. Charlie Fink wrote it and produced it with Jason Lader, who also engineered, and Tom Elmhirst mixed. Its resemblance to the Kinks' "Lola" has not gone unnoticed.
It was a slow climber, bobbing around the lower reaches of the UK chart for weeks before a spot on Dancing on Ice pushed it to number 14, the band's second-best showing since "5 Years Time". It also reached 26 in Ireland, and it sold 242,000 copies in Britain that year.
