Muse + The Streets - Who Knows Who

[jbyun04]

i don't see what's so bad about it

the beginning is pretty good especially after matt's kaoss and it goes into dom and chris's parts but the end is a little weird for me

 

either way it's pretty funny to listen to and it's nice to know it's not a serious release

[pubicmage]

HAhhaah. This song is completely hilarious. I love it.

[cheese on toast]

remember, all it is a jam session - just them mucking around, having fun. Dont take it too seriously.

I don't particularly like it, but I don't particularly hate it either.

 

I like The Streets.

 

/leaves thread.

[the-earle]

if any one else is a geeky as me and like to have art works for tracks I have made some for this using paint

 

[Nimpo46]

i feel the sameway i did at the beginning. I like the song, the rapping is not great, I thought it was fake meaning i took it for a joke, it's just a jam session meaning they took as a bit of a joke, nothing more nothing less.....

 

now on musewiki, when they play MOTP it'll be

People are taking this way too seriously. I think it's funny and I like it

 

And they wont follow this route for the next album, because Mike Skinner isn't a member of Muse:rolleyes:

its soo bad

[dead-duck]

i don't see what's so bad about it

imo, what's so bad about it is Mike Skinners voice.

 

He should just not "rap". Ever.

 

I'm not really too fond of rap in general, but I don't have to be a huge fan of rap to know there is such a thing as a "good rapper" and Skinner ain't it.....

 

As for the music, I find it hard to judge when I can't stop laughing at the lame vocals

i listened to one of his latest songs the escapist, and he sounds a lot like he does in Who Knows Who... however his earlier stuff he has a much deeper voice and was a lot better... i'm not sure why he got so bad, but because his voice is such a joke in that sense i think it fits perfectly with the song. It would be a shame to have a joke of a jam session with someone who is really trying to rap. Save that for a serious song (not that it will happen but u get point)

[jbyun04]

i was able to remove the vocals from the majority of the song but doing that also cut out the bassline and the annoying chorus is still there

 

after listening to this song a LOT I'm getting annoyed by Skinner but Muse playing in the background is amazing.. such a waste of a good riff especially when they release a studio version of it

yeah, I get what you're trying to say, and I don't believe it's meant to be taken all that seriously, but that it's not the most serious rap ever isn't what bothers me... I can't figure out how to explain it....

 

To give an analogy, my problem with the vocals isn't like someone singing in a silly way as opposed to some polished perfectly done opera-worthy vocals, it's more like the person singing is just tone deaf... that's not funny, that's painful

 

[hyper_chondriac_muser]

Lol well I'm certainly glad this is just for a laugh.. I'd cry if Muse decided to go down the rap route .. just fecking NO. I likes the rage-riffage of the song..tis cool (ie the Muse part), but the Skinner part is .. meh. Oh well, it's just for funs so let's not start panicking an basing the rest of their next album on this track. If anything else like this features then i'll have to personally slap each of them with a great big fish.

[hyper_chondriac_muser]

Just thought, although the riff is awesome, it would have been good if they'd used one of their own..as in the actual Blues Jam/Jimmy Jam etc they 'composed' as opposed to a cover of Heartbreaker.. just to see what their own stuff would sound like as a studio recorded jam session. Still love Muse's version over the original though

[Allrightnow]

It's a funny song. Thank you Muse (and The Streets) for bringing some laugh to the world, there is too much depression out there.

Famine is a shame

Yep, I'm sure Matt will end up rapping.

[Adrienchme]

He as ... a duck voice? xDDDDD

 

That's not that bad, i mean, the whole song sounds okay in my headphones (due to the instrumental?) but litstening to the lyrics well... it's bad still fun, but bad

 

"%y nammee is ..." omg stop here man xD

[dead-duck]

*shrug* I don't know that that many people are getting "worked up" about it... at least not here.

 

Sure, there's a few "ZOMG MOSE SUCK!" posts, but mostly it's just people saying they do or do not like the track (and explaining why)....

[Fayth-in-Flyght]

Ah well their loss

[dead-duck]
