Muscle Museum Discussion Thread

[Luigi.]

Seems that there isn't an appreciation/discussion thread for Muscle Museum.

One of my favorite Muse songs,love the chorus and outro.

[Supermassive_Deadstar]

it is one of their best songs and a personal favorite

[Minimal]

"I have played in every toilet"

 

I thought it had a sexual meaning at first

[Tasha_]

I love this song

[Gemsy]

WHAT. WHAT?!

CAN'T BELIEVE there wasn't a thread.

 

The first Muse song I heard, bass line made me buy Showbiz, the rest is history. <3

[knightofcydonia]

I love this song too

I love Muscle Museum, one of my faves i love the chorus!

[Cypher.]

I love this song definately one of my favourites...I wish they still played it live though, or that I'd been old enough to go and see them when they did

[collinhead]

i love this song.. it's actually in my top 5. One of my favs. sadly the first gig that i went to was in '06 when they seemed to be phasing it out-- I would have LOVED to hear this live. maybe some day.

 

Musewiki says

As of January 2010, Howard revealed on TripleJ radio, Australia, he'd like to play the song live again, however, due to Bellamy losing the required (rare) effects pedal for part of the song, it's been left out of rotation so far.

 

Someone should find this pedal and mail it to them. ^_^

 

 

Also- Hey You Crazy Kids is the best thing ever.

[Scott Morrison]

Also- Hey You Crazy Kids is the best thing ever.

 

YES.

[DwightKSchrute]

Bump

 

This song is awesome :D

[SebasD]

We really do need to help them to find that pedal.

[MopManMuse]

As with most muse songs the extended version is superior to the original, But even the original is fantastic

[tel69]

It's a great track which I heard them play live at Brixton in 2000/1.

[altbecky]

Zombie thread.

 

Do we have a smilie for that? We should.

[Gemsy]

heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey you crazy kids

[JaHawk2009]

Favourite Muse song hands-down. Still disappointed I'll likely never see it live since they "lost the pedal"

[Technica]

To revive this song I propose fans make 2 signs and bring them to gigs. One saying "Muscle Museum" and the other saying "you can use my pedal".

[Mr Slim]

I'd love to hear it played live. Definitely my favorite song off of Showbiz.

[Dryy]

Not one of my faves, but still a great song nevertheless.

When I first read this song title, all I could visualize was the Body Worlds exhibit. Took a long time to (mostly) get rid of that association.

I bought a flag to wave around at the Paris shows and wrote 'Play Muscle Museum' for fun - mostly to see Matt's face go after reading it, haha! There's no way they'll play it any time soon let alone at a stadium show, but one can dream. Maybe they'll cave to the pressure for the 20th anniversary show

[_Ed_]

It's such an awesome song, and it would be great if they played it live again one day. I was lucky enough to see it in 2004, but at that time it was still a regular, so I didn't appreciate it as much as maybe I should have.

[Sam Gile]

Well if Muse cannot find a new pedal or have one made we might as well crawl into our holes and die...
