One of them clearly has the Psycho bassline, another bass video appears to be for Defector because it matches up to the leaked 'making of'.
There's a video of Matt playing slide guitar is from The Globalist. There's also another Matt one of him playing the riff from The Globalist.
Lastly, there's the one where we hear the riff and 'Drones' chant which is from Reapers.
The other ones aren't connected to any songs yet that we've heard. Unless I've missed something?

This will always be my fave example:
-
Given the track length of 3:51, the fact that it's up on iTunes and how commercial it sounds...I'd say there's a pretty high chance that it'll be Mercy that's played
-
Well out of the loop - sorry! - but are we expecting Mercy to be released in the not too distant future given it's track length has now suddenly appeared on iTunes? (And nothing else has)
Yep!
My guess would be anytime between now and Monday. Basing this off how quickly they came out on iTunes when the Psycho and Dead Inside track lengths went up. Psycho was the same day!
-
Then subtract these.
Listen to the chorus! It's got the same melody as Follow Me
"Folllllowww Me"
"Merrrrrrr-cy"
That's why I said 10%
-
It's a little darker than Starlight but not by much. The comparisons with Glorious are sort of true but it doesn't seem to have any cool riffs like Glorious did.
Take 50% of Starlight, 30% of Glorious, 10% of Guiding Light and 10% of Follow Me and you have Mercy
-
I stepped off the hype train the second I heard those Starlight-esque keys for the intro. It sounds pretty poor to me...I prefer Dead Inside to this.
Goddamn you Muse, always building my hopes up for an album and then crushing them!
-
Escape
I Belong To You
Soldier's Poem
Starlight
Explorers
That was really, really hard to choose because there's a handful of others I wanted in that list.
Honourable mentions for: Feeling Good, Exo Politics, Endlessly and Follow Me.

Well you're a bit of a cunt, aren't you
Pretty funny everyone judging me on this without knowing the context.
I was stating something about the crowds during 2001 and someone told me I was straight up wrong. Hence me telling him to go fuck himself. I certainly don't think I'm better than anyone because of this.
You're welcome

I can dig it. In fact I'm very glad this happened! If they had done another hard rock song for the lead single it would've been too predictable, and we all know Muse will stop at nothing to keep from being predictable. Now I'm excited cause this album is gonna be a wild ride, not to mention a full on concept album for once, which I love. Also, where are people getting this stuff about The Globalist being a ten minute prog rock epic?
Matt confirmed it on Radio 1. He said it's the sequel to Citizen Erased
-
It's going down well with the general public. Perfect first single in my eyes
-
10 min prog nightmare!!
-
I like it, sue me
-
Sweet solo!
-
You know you're wrong
Did you go to see Muse in 2001?
Go fuck yourself
-
You came up with an excuse for why it didn't count. Who would've guessed?
I made this account with the username "Old Man Pigeon" in 2003 when I was 19 but now I really do feel too 'old' evidently to be on an Internet forum where people post memes to get a laugh.
-
Barely! About 20% of what it's like these days.
For the record, I was at that gig and wasn't bothered then by it.
I'll say this again, for the last time. Yes it bothers me but that doesn't mean a) I don't want people to do it and b) I never get a fun boner. I just choose how to enjoy gigs my own way
-
I meant at Muse gigs. Now I see why Jedi was talking about people being smart-asses.
Ok then sir, find me a Muse gig pre 2009 where people are singing along to the riffs.
-
Weren't you just worried that you wouldn't hear the song if people sang over it? Do you want people to be quiet or not?
Singing along to the lyrics has been happening for decades at gigs. Singing along to riffs is fairly new (last 5 years)
I've been going to see Muse since 2001 and nobody sang along to the New Born riff. And you know what...those gigs were fucking awesome!
Last night was great too, but just because I chose to stand back and enjoy it instead of sweating my ass off and getting elbowed in the head doesn't mean I had less of a reason to be there or pay my money.
Showing appreciation for a song was usually done once the song finished and there was a massive applause...or in the case of Endlessly, a muted applause.

I think "get off your high horse" is quite fitting actually. You're ridiculing other people's decisions, they react. Deal with it.
Yeah admittedly I was on my period that day....
I enjoyed you finding those quotes from over a week ago though!
How about you enjoy your gigs your way, and I'll enjoy my gigs my way?
I went to Manchester last night and loved it. Stood by the sound desk so I was far away enough to let people sing along to the riffs and still be able to hear the music. Works for me
-
"Buhu why are people telling me to get off my high horse I'm only making fun of them for how they enjoy a gig!"
Where did I make fun of them? Enlighten me?
I said it grated on me personally. People can sing to whatever they want
-
These things are all parts of (and the beauty of in my opinion) attending live shows. If you want an uninterrupted musical experience you might as well listen to the recordings. The moment the crowd started singing Psycho's riff felt absolutely brilliant. Both Matt and Chris looked extremely pleased with the crowd during The Groove. And for many people a muse gig is the only place they can (try to) sing MicroCuts so loudly without getting the looks.
Also please don't tell me one person (i.e you) is by any means eligible to determine "singablity" of a riff for the rest of the crowd.
So, next time you go to a gig. get off your high horse. I guarantee you'll enjoy it more.
See I have a problem with this too.
Just because we want to hear the LIVE music and not people drowning out the instuments with lairy chanting means we should only listen to recordings?
I go to gigs to watch and hear a performance. Songs usually always sound better live, especially when Muse do them! I think riff sing-alongs are cheesy and they grate on me, but I wouldn't tell people to stop doing them like you're telling people to get off their high horse!

Glad we have FabriPav here to be the most fucking annoying member of the board
It's ok, he did the same to me when I dared to say people singing riffs bothered me. If you have an opinion on here, he likes to stamp his arrogant 'comedy' all over it. Nothing changes after all these years

Ahhh you beat me to it. I'm sure that slide guitar vid is from The Globalist though. It's the same as the 'making of' video...no?
