AT Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Hello to you all, I am wondering since a long time now why Muse aren't recording (or so it seems) any new acoustic versions of their songs... As far as I know, the most recent one was an acoustic version of "Time is running out" (or am I wrong??). I really miss their acoustic songs because I think that's where their musical abilities, that make them stand out in the world of rock music, can be heard in their purest way. And i prefer Matt's more precise and more careful singing in the acoustic versions, his voice is very clear and he sustains the notes longer and sings ALL the words COMPLETELY (by the way: don't you think it's a bit of a shame how he sings "Unintended" and "Hoodoo" on the Haarp-dvd? so unarticulated, it destroys the beauty of those whole (brilliant!) songs! Such a pity! The same goes for the latest versions of "Fury": Why on earth does he only sing "...to punish u- and make a fu-"?? I miss the former brilliance of "Fury" from the (best-of-all-dvds-)Absolution-dvd...). I would love it if they decided to record an acoustic album, for a change... Muse unplugged, wouldn't that be great? Well, I really love ALL their acoustic songs, but if I were to name my three favourites (difficult task, indeed!!), they would be: 1) Sing for absolution (Radio 2 performance, it's on the "Hurr&Butt"-single): MASTERPIECE!!! 2) Hate this and I'll love you (early B-side): BRILLIANT! I love the solo before the last corus! 3) Muscle Museum (another early B-side): BEAUTIFUL, such a young, clear voice, and so well played... Well now it's your turn: What are your favourite acoustic versions of Muse-songs? And what would you think about a "Muse-unplugged"-album? Thanks for answering! And happy new year! (-: P.S.: As I said, it's a difficult task, chosing only three songs... If I were to name two more, they would be "Cave" acoustic and, of course, "Bedroom acoustics"... Wonder if Matt is still able to play that song... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CitizenAgitated Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 I have to agree, every acoustic song they've done sounds great. That's the mark of a true band, to play unplugged and lose nothing in the music. Favorite acoustic songs: Shine Map of Your Head SFA TIRO Unintended Hoodoo(the acoustic parts) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bellamy'szetagirl Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 I love acoustic Muse. I agree they should put out an acoustic only album or even do a limited acoustic tour (and put it on a dvd of course for everyone who can't attend).

Lilwindmill Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 I love them all, and Matt's voice is amazing in all of them! I think no one mentioned Falling Down! I really like the acoustic version!

Draymen Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Map of Your Head and Shine are two of my favorites. I didn't know there was an acoustic version of Time is Running Out, I can't imagine a heavier song like it made acoustic, I'm going to search it in a second. An acoustic Sing for Absolution would be awesome! The song converts prefectly and it'd sound amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
