JessicaSarahS Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 still just 2 people who don't like this song according to the poll. Yeah, this has to be in the running for Most Instantly Popular Muse Song of all time. I'm afraid of overplaying it, but at the same time, I can't stop! Same here! I've been playing it so much and I'm afraid to wear it out, but I crave it! I had to force myself to stop listening to it so I could listen to the rest of the album.

LewisF Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 After listening to the album for the first time, this must still be my favourite song! Awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Problematique Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 It's quickly becoming one of my favourites songs. I kinda agree that the solo is too long though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwyn Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Does something odd happen when he sings 'Oppressor'? I'm having trouble hearing it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LewisF Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Does something odd happen when he sings 'Oppressor'? I'm having trouble hearing it right. I thought that at first, but I think it sounds really cool. Love the lyric video too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopix Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 if the solo was shorter and a bit more creative this would have easily become my favourite Muse song. I feel like this with so many Muse songs it's ridiculous, especially over the last few albums. Just little adjustments and embellishments here and there would make the experience 10 times better.

simplytom Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I think people are a bit too picky here, I like the riff even if it may have shortcomings. The Handler is one of the best songs Muse have ever made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen Erased 01 Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 does anyone else hear a yawn at 1:26? some kind of weird effect I imagine, but it doesn't half sound like a huge yawn I love it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwingsrock Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Thinking through Muse's back catalog, this is definitely one of the heaviest things they have ever done. I still love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobiiiaaas Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I know people find the solo a bit long, and maybe it could be shortened, but I find that it really pumps me up when I'm listening to the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Citizen Erased 01 Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 It's perfect to me too I find it incredibly atmospheric, the swirling synth, the building drums, just perfect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobomania Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 The robotic backing vocals in "Programmed to obey" and "Behold my transformation" sound so great in this, Fantastic track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vixi Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I agree, perfect length. Everything is so good about this song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HannahG123 Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 also sorry if this has already been pointed out but the solo is so much like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn. Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 did we get an explanation as to why alice in wonderland and pinnochio are in the video? Pinnochio, because the handler can turn real boys into puppets. And Alice, don't know, probably for the mushrooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Citizen Erased 01 Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 (edited) also sorry if this has already been pointed out but the solo is so much like this oh my god you're right Pinnochio, because the handler can turn real boys into puppets. And Alice, don't know, probably for the mushrooms. I think it's meant to represent the corruption of innocence and youths (?) Perhaps along the lines of "brainwashing our children to be mean" kind of thing Edited June 4, 2015 by Citizen Erased #01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn. Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Definitely mushrooms. Mushrooms are the answer to everything. There is a connection with the Reapers video, where there are mushrooms, too. Maybe in all the videos the mushrooms are present and is like an easter egg, i should check Mercy in case is true. Well played, Muse, well played.

Rich0 Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Anyone else agree that this could of been arguably Muses best ever song if had a better solo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
