FabriPav Posted March 12, 2015 Author Share Posted March 12, 2015 amazing standard of the likes of Citizen Erased or Time is Running Out TIRO is not what I'd call an amazing standard... But yeah, there might still be good lyrics in this album. I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic. Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 'I'm young but I know that I'm aroused' - Showbiz 'It's a race and I'm gonna win' - The 2nd Law 'It's time for a miracle, it's time for something biblical, to pull us through, and this is the end of the world' - Absolution 'And you will burn in hell, yeah you'll burn in hell for your sins' - BH&R 'And she attacks me like a leo when my heart is split like Rio' - The Resistance ''Your golden lies feed my role, in this forgotten space race under my control' - OOS Look, guys, yeah, the lyrics to Psycho are cheesy, and they might not be up to the amazing standard of the likes of Citizen Erased or Time is Running Out, but think: every album has had lyrics that have been massively cheesy or just... plain awful at times (I Belong to You, I'm staring in your direction). I think a lot of people are taking it all too seriously and being a bit arty-farty about it, but in my opinion, the song is fun. Muse sound like they had massive fun with this song, with lyrics that are incredibly cheesy but straight to the point. But I don't think you can act like 'uuuggghhhh this album will be terrible the song has awful lyrics boo hoo' when you consider past songs. Tl;dr? Yeah, it's cool if you don't like the song, because, ya know, that's called an opinion. But don't go raining on everyone's hype train and being all pessimistic. I like the "Your golden lies..." lyric, it's bangin'. The Absolution lyric isn't terrible either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sade Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 My alternative station just said that they won't be playing this song because it's too offensive. I'm sure Dead Inside will get a lot of airtime in a couple of weeks though. There's something sad about an "alternative" station finding this too offensive to play. Pop stations I get, but umm, yeah.

Bumpypotato Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I think it's rather interesting they are wearing the same kind of clothes. Makes me wonder if they are some kind of uniforms that they are going to use on gigs. Probably just to make the visuals cohesive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonisdead Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Hey guys, I'm featured in the video at 2:50 - 2:53. I also think that the featured animation made by Matt Mahurin in this vid might be a thrown away album art idea, I'm using it as the cover for this promo single.

ArgumentativeBullfrogs Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I like the "Your golden lies..." lyric, it's bangin'. The Absolution lyric isn't terrible either The Hyper Music one I've just... um... never quite got. Could be missing something. As for Apocalypse Please... you gotta admit, it's cheesy. Still good, but proper good Muse cheese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying disliking it is bad. Heck, sometimes that's a good thing. But I mean shooting people down because of your dislike. I've seen it a few times. My opinions will be utter balls to other people, and that's fine. But I just feel turning around to people and saying 'ugh how on earth can you like the lyrics it's all [generic rant]' (which I have seen on numerous places tonight) is just... nah.

Farelial Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I forgot they're playing a Finnish festival! It won't be that one, but probably the next time after that! AND HEY, you're the biggest fan I know. Yeah, I thought so! Arena and stadium gigs are so much easier. But I'll definitely be there and yes, lets meet and be awesome Yet not the most devoted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Little Animal Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 The Hyper Music one I've just... um... never quite got. That's the beauty of OOS. If it's about "getting it" than Psycho has the best lyrics ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoswellSpaceman Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I've listened to it 5 times now and it gets better with each listen. When Madness came out, I listened to it like twice and thought, "eh, it's ok" and didn't play it again for the rest of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeirdF Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 As someone who dislikes the lyrics from T2L and dislikes the Drones album art due to their uninspired content, I'm actually quite happy with the Psycho lyrics. It's from the perspective of a drill sergeant, so you can't expect it to be beautiful and poetic. The fact that it's simplistic and blunt works well in the context. The way he's singing it (i.e. fantastically and beautifully) is nicely juxtaposed to the actual content of the lyrics (brainwashing a new recruit into becoming a "psycho killer"). Ignoring the lyrics though, it's gonna be an absolute banger live. Probably not enough musical variety within the song to make it one that I'll listen to as many times as some earlier stuff, but still it's absolutely fantastic. If the rest of the album is on par with this one, then I'll be one happy fan, that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
