Background
Bruno Mars, Phillip Lawrence, Ali Levin and Kernan went into the studio to try and come up with a song that would outshine the Beatles, but with nothing to show for it, Bruno threw all the drafts in the trash, and the four started walking around the studio. They felt tired and didn't want to work.
Bruno, feeling irritable, said he didn't want to do anything at all (Today I don't feel like doing anything at all). The words opened everyone's minds, and the four of them began working on a song about "slackers. The song was recorded at Larrabee Studios and Levcon Studios in Los Angeles.
