Ryoma-kun Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 NSC is not better than anything except Guiding Light and Prague. I respect your opinions and I can very well understand why you think so but I've never had anything against really cheesy songs so I can enjoy NSC. But Matt vocals saves the song for me, I'm pretty sure that if anyone else had sung it I wouldn't have liked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love IBTY and Endlessly, for instance. It's just that NSC is a lame copy of the drums in KoC with shit lyrics thrown on top. I love the vocals in it, but it's just too shit to be saved by good vocals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lyrics are shit, not unlike many other Muse songs, but that has never really bothered me. It's kinda repetitive but it's catchy. However it's not like I want this song to be the recipe for future Muse songs but it's still nice regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drawakangaroo Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 NSC is not better than anything except Guiding Light and Prague. No. Guiding Light > NSC > some old B-sides and stuff. And I'm not saying NSC is better than Eternally Missed, I'm saying that it annoys me less than Eternally Missed. I realize that musically, it's better than NSC, but that doesn't make me like it.

muse2503 Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I don't like Soldier's Poem, I always skip that one. It just doesn't match the awesomeness of the rest of the album :/ There's a few B-sides I probably don't like more but I haven't listened to all of them and I can't remember which one's which for some of them XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emperorhand Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I don't get the hate for Prague. They're going for a specific sound, very Showbiz-era in some aspects, and I think they pull it off. It's not anywhere near a best-of list, but it's better than a fair handful of their other B-sides. NSC is a song of which I'd love to own an instrumental version. All of my hate for the song is reserved for that trite tripe Matt called the lyrics. But musically, it's interesting, propulsive, and has that piano outro I've loved for the past seven years. If you want an example of a shit song, look no further than Exo-Politics. So much potential, completely wasted. Or Easily, a song which I think is one of Muse's most boring.

harrypottermegan Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Why do so many people hate Exo-Politics? I really like it....

I can't stand the instrumentation or the vocals; the damn thing feels like it goes on forever. To me, Prague is less boring (although not in any way a great song). *opinion* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dee3Dee Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I like Exo-Politics, the way it was performed at Wembley Arena 2006. And Prague is the single most boring song ever. Even Guiding Light is a lot of fun compared to Prague. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
