Muse + The Streets - Who Knows Who

[Olly.]

ahhh so its not like an official track

and i dont recognise the backing music, it was my mum, i was just curious

 

nah dont think it was released properly, only via leak.

[Problemfanatique]

Wasn't the riff a Led Zeppelin riff? I'm not too sure.. but yeah, the riff is someone's elses. The inbetween parts are very RATM inspired. I wouldn't go as far to say they stole someone else's music just from using a riff tbh.

Haha

'Heartbreaker' isn't it? I remember now.

[psyence53]

Omg I forgot about this collaboration... I was like... The Streets? RATM? *groan*

First listen... ¬_¬ wtf... but by the end i was like hmm. Not bad! If it's real.

[Nimpo46]

Hmm if it's real... we will never know!

[Niall]

Well...it is real =/ Both Muse and The Streets have confirmed it. And both have performed parts of it live.

 

Hopefully we get more Muse collaborations...it would be nice to hear them with an injection of music from some other genres they haven't touched. Hip hop...post-hardcore...pop punk...anything really. I'd love to see them break all the days of people who still haven't gotten over OoS and do something actually surprising. Like SBH was nothing that new really, it was just a bit dancier than older Muse songs. And Who Knows Who is just really bad.

 

They've shown us they can amalgamate other music with their own enough, BHaR is full of heavy influences from other artists. I personally don't like the idea of Muse songs that sound like other artists though (i.e. MotP = Depche Mode, Assassin = Lightning Bolt), I'd prefer Muse songs, or Muse songs featuring other artists to that.

[psyence53]

Yeah i just read somewhere that it was a late jam session or something, and theyre glad it was leaked because it was only fun and never intended for a release

[ForexGuides]

This unlikely collaboration between Muse and the Streets, leaked online earlier today, pays surprising dividends. For one, it helps each party limit their excesses. Muse, whose tendency to go huge limits its recorded material while making its live shows some of the best in the world, are served well by Mike Skinner's low key sass. Skinner, on the other hand, has the benefit of Muse's musical chops and sense of funky melody to prevent flatulent music detracting from his skilled rapping. As for the whole product, it's a surprisingly good track that sounds like something of a smarter, less angry Rage Against the Machine track. An unlikely collaboration has produced an unlikely success

[Clunge]

Well I disagree with that on pretty much every level imaginable.

 

Where'd'joo copy that from anyways?

[chibb73]

hi,

does anyone know if the track 'Who Knows Who (feat. Mike Skinner)' is gonna be released digitally or on CD? i no longer own a 'record player' (ha ha)....

[Dominic.]

are we still allowed to post links to it even though it's now an official release?

also, are they gonna put it on the muse store, they have all the other tracks from the vinyls on ther (except sunburn)

[haze015]

I think it's fine to link to it since it wasn't planned to be released.

[Hopix]

Apart from Muse it's complete shit.

[Niall]

They don't seem to be selling it anywhere digitally, you may as well share it. It's already been leaked and spread around here, and Muse even okayed it themselves.

[prp123]

Thanks for sharing.

 

Research Paper Writing

[runda99]

I know this thread is damn old... but did anyone ever get hold of an instrumental version?

[lovesecret]

what are you talking about?

[bruce57]

is it really that difficult to create an intelligent bot?
