jonisdead Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Yeah I guess the lyrics remind me somewhat of 90s Savage Garden nonsense. the lyrics and melody are generic but imo I feel like where Matt went with the song is kind of a natural progression for it to go in. If Save Me wasn't a thing then that cascading guitar riff could've worked here I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Save Me wasn't a thing then that cascading guitar riff could've worked here I think Ooooh no.... Don't get me started with Save Me. I don't feel Aftermath needs to be riffed. I just think it was headed someone extraordinary and then received a dose of cheese. Now.... don't get me wrong, me gusta queso, but I just could have used a little less. Not a bad song all things considered. I'll listen to it when I'm feeling soft and squishy. Edited June 8, 2015 by •am• Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwyn Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 This song has U2 written all over it. Sounds like The Edge on guitar, never heard that kind of thing from Matt before. And the beginning sounds very similar to The Troubles - no bad thing, as I love that song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alibros Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 this one has grown on me a lot. Still can't get over Mutt's singalong though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonisdead Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 this one has grown on me a lot. Still can't get over Mutt's singalong though. Allowing him to sing on this song should've been a fair trade for Tom giving us a full making of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Little Animal Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 This song is going to be killer live. A buzz killer yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopix Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 The lead guitar near the beginning could be more interesting, more like Falling Down type stuff I guess, aside from that though, pretty good song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen Erased 01 Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 loved this one from first listen, but it's getting better and better with each passing day. Completely sold on this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rad Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Every time I've tried listening to the song, it just reminds me of a song that was played at a high school graduation that I had to sit through a few years ago. I'm not really a fan...I swear it sounds exactly like whatever that school played for their candle lighting ceremony lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LTM Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 I don't understand some of you guys. This is my favourite song on the album. Insanely beautiful. Could listen to it on repeat all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopix Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 I do like this song, but I've decided it would be infinitely better if it just had more of the first few minutes, and less of the last few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MancMuse Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 i do not get the negative coments on this song as I really like it. With different lyrics it could have made a good final track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topo_musero Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 i do not get the negative coments on this song as I really like it. With different lyrics it could have made a good final track. I will prefer it to be quiet, as in the first 3 minutes. I actually like them a lot. But that last part is too... unnecessary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Mime Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Damnit, anyone else wishes the verses were twice as long? Like at 3:52 is like one of the most beautiful things I have heard from Muse, but it only last 10 seconds:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like at 3:52 is like one of the most beautiful things I have heard from Muse, but it only last 10 seconds:( Definitely! That verse in particular is way too short. This song has really grown on me though. If you just zone out and take it all in, it really sounds great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute Eb Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Any song that sounds like U2 should be derided. You know not everyone thinks U2 is crap.... That aside I think the ending shouldn't have been that group sing a-long thing it became (when Mutt Lange starts singing). Save that for the live shows; it doesn't belong on the album in my opinion. It's like the last album in Explorers when they add in the drums and bells...WHY? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
