Which Muse song or riff makes your head stand on end whenever you hear it?

[PwoperMan]

New Born - outro

Knights of Cydonia - Intro

Muscle Museum - entire song

Microcuts - when Matt starts to scream/sing

[rainingradioheads]

Take a Bow. I dunno why, but I've recently bumped it to my second favorite song. The guitar is really simple, but with all the arpeggios and stuff it sounds really cool. Weak, I know, but it's so good. Plus the really high note and harmonies at the end.

Take a Bow

[Spyke]

I love that scratching noise at the beginning of Hyper Music, I can't for the life of me know how Matt did it.

Its Matt just scratching the strings with his pick with distortion turned on. But yeah, it is a good intro.

Mmmm Hoodoo...just fell in love with that one a couple of weeks ago. 'Tis beautiful, I never realized. Stupid KoC distracting me while listening to BH&R.

Yea I know what you mean. In my case it was TaB that distracted me, but after awhile I just put the cd on repeat and eventually listened to every song! xDD

 

It's hard to do that sometimes, so I have to trick myself into doing something while I listen so that I'll be too distracted to change to a song I'm addicted to at that moment! ^^

It's a nice trick, works every time and I use it for every cd I buy!

'Tis a good idea. I will try it whenever I decide to relisten to Showbiz and see if I like any of the songs on there anymore.

[Plug in me]

Have a guess which my fave is!

Plug in Baby is just a great riff.

[I'd_Rather_Dance]

From Wembley 2007:

-Riff at the end of Blackout makes me want to melt into a puddle

-Riff right before the bridge in Hysteria

-Intro to Invincible

-All of Stockholm Syndrome kicks serious ass (the last "I wish I could!" definitely gives me goosebumps! Not to mention his mad riff skillz at the end! I could honestly go on and on about this song...)

-Sing for Absolution (I shiver just thinking about it)

 

Others:

-Glorious

-KoC - Especially when he first starts singing "No ones going to take me alive..."

-Darkshines -His voice is so damn sexy in this song, espcially during the verses

-Unintended

-Sing for Absolution (again)

-Fury intro and solo riff (f**king sick! {the good kind!})
