Clunge Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 It saddens me how so many people seem to want a different version of Follow Me - I'm so glad they went with the heavy bassy version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serpentsatellite Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Glad they went with it, but would still love to have both versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. The album version is so catchy, yet so heavy and beefy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter. Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Hopefully they will release it one day as a b-side if they do, the first version won't get another listen from me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like the album version - but it would be cool to have the 'original' version to see how different it could have been. Like the alternate version of Muscle Museum for example...

Like the alternate version of Muscle Museum for example... But you've got the original... By the same logic, aren't you interested in hearing the 'original', fully electronic version of Unsustainable? I'm not trying to be a dick, but it just underlines the overwhelming majority of Muse fans have a preference, if not expectation, of the band being a guitar band and tend not to be so on board when they try out electronic stuff. Plus, all songs go through 10s of versions - we only ever (really) hear the final one and not the steps in betwee, this is no different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitton Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 I think the massive bass synths on the chorus are brilliant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unidentifiable Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Am I the only person who thinks Matt's vocals are a bit off key in the first line, especially the "and surrounds you..." bit? Or is it just an effect caused by the backing music? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skrillzzz1109 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 The album version of this song sounds like a horrible remixed version of what should be the actual version of this song. Sounds like crappy dance music I hear when I walk into a "trendy" clothing store at the mall. Plus Matt's weak-sounding "Follow meeeee" is awful. I miss Matt's youthful "strained" sounding vocals. I think this is my most hated song on the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bumpypotato Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 I think I prefer the live version, but this is still awesome. Nero did a great job with the remix. The only real issue I have with it is the lyrics, but I've never been that bothered by Matt's lyrics and this is no different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serpentsatellite Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 If the lyrics were directed at anything/one other than his son, I would probably feel differently than I do. I still find it incredibly touching, and intimate. (Although, if it was to the girlfriend, I'd probably SAY it was cheesy, and still privately be all *squeee* adorable. ) Was there an electronic version of Unsustainable? I don't believe so... There was, however, a "regular instrument" version of this one, at least insofar as what Matt implied. Which Nero took and remixed. So, it would be interesting/nice to hear. Not that I don't like it as is - I just have a preference for old fashioned guitar and piano music. Anyone else find it odd that Matt caused all that "real instrument" controversy, and then the album is heavily electronic/has an entirely electronic song? Possibly he misspoke "regular" as "real"...

FabriPav Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 1) Muse made Follow Me as a standard rock song. 2) Muse tried to make an half electronic - half rock version of the 1) song. 3) Muse gave the 2) version to Nero, who made it fully electronic. 4) The 3) song is the album one. Unsustainable was created electronically and then replicated with guitar, bass and drums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serpentsatellite Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Actually apparantly unsustainable was originally electric I either totally missed that interview, or it's in the making of I don't have yet? Did Muse do it themselves?? If so, I would be absolutely interested in hearing that, too! BTW, is there anything "special" about the special features on the box set that us regular folk won't get? I never did get up the cash... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was in an interview, I think the electronic magazine one. They had Unsustainable all electronic like standard brostep and then decided to scrap it all and try it with their guitar/bass/drums. So the opposite of Follow Me. They did it all themselves. I think the special features were just the other making-of songs they decided to not put on the main DVD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
