Bohemian-Cygnus-Running-Out Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Not sure if these kind of threads have been done before, but I feel like it'd be interesting to have official threads for discussing which song is the best from each album with polls. So here's the first one. If it goes over well over the next few days I shall make more for the other albums. As for my opinion on the best song from Showbiz, it's a very tough decision with a number of tracks duking it out for number one, but I'd say few Muse songs have ever reached the intensity of the title track or had the actually really neat and uncheesy lyrics to go with it. My vote's for Showbiz, but Cave, Muscle Museum, and Sunburn are right up there. And go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen_Eraser Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Showbiz followed by Spiral Static. Then HTAILY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never really been that big of a fan of HTAILY, it seems a bit lackluster compared to Muse's other closers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tesseract Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Depends on my mood, it varies between Showbiz, HTAILY, and Muscle Museum for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen_Eraser Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 A better question might be album version of Showbiz, or Hullabaloo performance of Showbiz? I vote the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bohemian-Cygnus-Running-Out Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 A better question might be album version of Showbiz, or Hullabaloo performance of Showbiz? I vote the latter. I agree. Just listened to the second part of Hullabaloo again last night and WOW! The go absolutely nuts on like every track, Showbiz most definitely.

Bohemian-Cygnus-Running-Out Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 Well seeing as the poll has gotten a considerable number of votes (and a vast majority for Showbiz, yay!), I think this should work well with the other albums. Time to post one for OoS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamCee Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Showbiz, Muscle Museum and Sunburn are three of my favourite songs so quite hard to choose there... Showbiz I think is my preferred of the list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furygirl Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 HTAILY is my favorite, probably followed by MM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bohemian-Cygnus-Running-Out Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 Seeing as the OoS thread was actually a remake (sorry bout that), I checked to see if their was a similar Abso thread, and. I don't think there is, so I will be posting it shortly. (Sorry once again if the thread already exists, I couldn't find it). EDIT: there's not enough controversy in this thread. HTAILY is the worst song on the album IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serpentsatellite Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 HITALY never grew on me, but it's far from the worst. I'm just rather bored by it. Sunburn is the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have a hard time thinking of it as part of the album, as I heard it so much later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplytom Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 No love for Unintended Having said that it comes in third place after Sunburn and Muscle Museum, for me at least anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furygirl Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Yay more love for HTAILY! Booooooo. Sober is the worst song. Maybe Overdue. I think Sober is fun to sing to. But yep, Overdue is at the bottom for me. I always skip it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bohemian-Cygnus-Running-Out Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 I'm not gonna go so far as to say I hate HTAILY, but considering my lack of adoration for it, does that mean Matt loves me more than the rest of you because of the song's title? (Jk, jk, lol. I actually like it, too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonisdead Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Cannot believe that people are rating Showbiz higher than Spiral Static and Sunburn. Are you kidding me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think Sober is good musically, I just can't relate to the lyrics. Cannot believe that people are rating Showbiz higher than Spiral Static and Sunburn. Are you kidding me? I forgot about Spiral Static, love the buildup and vocals of that song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serpentsatellite Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I can relate to the lyrics, especially when I was that age... but just don't find it a good song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobby Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I actually think Sober is good musically, I just can't relate to the lyrics. I've had family members who were alcoholic so I've always just related it to that, makes the lyrics seem pretty dark/sad actually. Musically, I enjoy it 'cause it's fun. The only thing that annoys me are some of Matt's vocals, particularly in the chorus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
