TrebleRose689 Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 This is a thread to talk about any unique sort of changes or "flourishes" to songs that Muse sometimes does when they perform live that makes them different from the album version. It can be any sort of little detail that you love that makes the live version of a song stand-out from the studio one The first that come to mind for me (at the moment) is whenever Matt says "Our trials and tribulations" in Starlight and, of course, the "Since I lost you" in MotP. I also love this one tiny detail of SS that they occasionally do during the last chorus. After "abandon you", Matt sometimes plays a really high note on the guitar that makes it sound more "dramatic" He did this during my show and it gave me chills. It's really a minute detail, but for some reason I really love it He did it at Glastonbury this year too. Go to about 4:25 to hear it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ez4a4FhaS-E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thread you liked to is different; the OP here is talking about the different things they do with the songs live, not moments from certain gigs. But yes, it should under gigs and tours.

So I changed the title and just edited my first paragraph to make it extra-clear that I'm talking about MUSICAL things they do live, not performance-y things. Also... now that we have that straightened out, can be people just post here if they're actually gonna address the original discussion topic? I keep seeing people post and getting excited, then let down. I'm very interested to see what people say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hat Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Songs that are actually played different live would be Bliss(falsetto), New Born(solo), Uprising(Ending riff) and KoC(Ending riff). But otherwise it's mostly little details. I like that a lot, that they can still have SOME amount of improv on stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hyper_chondriac_muser Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 There are waaaay too many to mention. The whole of B&H sounds different live - from the drumming, the extended guitar bit before the breakdown, Matt's falsetto wail at the end - it's 100 times better. New Born (pre-Resistance era) was amazing live as well - that build-up from piano to guitar mode was epic (RIP ). It's just little things they do to enhance and develop the songs that makes them an awesome live band; the studio versions pale next to their live counterparts (mostly ). Screenager piano is amazing, the intro to Resistance gives me chills live from the hype of the crowd more than the performance (lol), Stockholm at every level is just awesome, same with KoC, Bliss, Citizen... it's an endless list! There's less evidence of these differences in this latest tour, imo, than before - they still experiment with TR songs live, but it doesn't feel as obvious as previous albums' songs. The biggest difference is the Uprising outro, but I still feel a few songs from TR need to evolve a bit more live. They perform them to the same top standard, but there's not as much change as there could be, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squittle Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 -Pretty much every change to the final guitar lick in KoC, I've preferred to the album version -The fuzz solo in SMBH -Dom's drum fill near the end of Plug in Baby that is always played live, but isn't on the album... speaking of which... -The outro to Plug in Baby -The extended outro to Uprising -A lack of Collateral Damage at the end of USoE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
