Clunge Posted May 17, 2010 Author Share Posted May 17, 2010 I love it as a one off piece of cheesy madness . The final chorus/outro is really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidabc Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 It's not that bad... the guitar solo felt really out of place though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lily93 Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Wonder what they were recording with Butch Vig then....hopefully something decent....considering Butch Vig would just not go within 10000000 miles of a song like this :sick: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Like the piano at the end but I agree this song is too fragmented and is trying to cram too much into one song. It's obviously cheesy and all the different parts don't work together imo. And before anybody use that argument again, my opinion is about the song, not the fact that it is on the Twilight soundtrack. My opinion would be the same it is was a standalone Muse single.

AnnaLu Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 you know, now am listening to it for like the...6th ? time, its growing on me. I think the intros the weakest bit then it gets better, and the whole tone of it is better for understanding once you've heard the interview after. And I knew i recognised the piano bit at the end- thanks to whoever wrote about it on Musewiki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaphod Chizzlebrox Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 It's the newest festering turd on Muse's discography. Suddenly Citizen Erased doesn't seem as boring any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uccellino Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I love it!! It has all the melodrama that got me into Muse in the first place. 79p well spent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LyraSilvertongue Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 It does get better with every listen. But it will never be even in my top 50 Muse songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemons Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 i agree with Clunge. plus, and this made sense in my head (which means it probably won't make any sense at all), at least they made it for twilight and not for an actual album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nepthys Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 And now the lyrics are understandable, going by what Matt said in the interview I didn't catch the interview. Can anyone tell me what he said? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trilateral_Symmetry_Com'n. Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I love it! Great to have a new song with so much piano in it... both rock-style fills and full-blown classical! I bet Dom had fun with the drum patterns. It sounds to me like all three were just having fun making this one, not taking it too seriously, and having fun rocking out. The "political" second verse is soft-pedalled, from what I can tell (can't make out all the lyrics), so I think we can safely disregard any "NSC" double-meaning (as a play on "Nat. Security Council") or conspiracy theorizing... but I love the line about snowflakes dissipating in the ocean (echoes of "Unnatural Selection"'s "droplets in the ocean" bit). Has anyone identified the piano outro yet? Saint-Saens, Debussy, Liszt... or 100% Matt Bellamy? I heard this in the big YouTube clip, from Zane Lowe's program, with Lowe's intro and interview of Matt afterwards. Poor Maffoo... broke up with his gf about eight months ago and sounds like he isn't completely over it yet. And the summer-tour festival stagery sounds outrageous! Pyramids! UFOs! Alien abduction! Illuminatus all-seeing eye! Woo-hoo! :LOL: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awaketochaseadream Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I at the first minute of this song. Who woulda thunk the chorus would be the best part of the song? It's like a Frankenstein monster of Muse songs, everything just haphazardly thrown together. Eh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Me3009 Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 The beginning is just awful. After that it gets better, and the outro is beautiful. I'm still not very keen on it, though. When will we see the full video of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazydays Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Now I've got nothing left to lose You take your time to choose I can tell you now without a trace of fear that my Love will be forever And we'll die, we'll die together And lie, I will never lie (?) Cause our love will be forever considering the reasoning behind the song and the lyrics, how he wanted it to come out quickly while the feeling was still relevant, i think this song can be a bit forgiven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bliss :) Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Basically Matt said that he wrote this song when he broke up with Gaia (sp?) and the lyrics reflect what people think when they are in love, but when they break up, those thoughts just disappear and are suddenly just forgotten about. I get the idea that he wrote this song just to get it all out of his system. Also, he said that he was probably going to save the song for another album, but when the Twilight soundtrack came along he thought he might as well just bung it out there while it was still relevant, rather than in a couple of years when he had completely gotten over it (or something like that) Makes me feel sad for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pip Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I love it as a one off piece of cheesy madness . I think this is exactly how I'd describe my feelings! I laughed and laughed all the way through but I can't join in with those who say they hate it coz I really don't think I do!:LOL: Am definitely going to learn the lyrics in case they play it live as it's begging to be sung along to Pavarotti style with arms outstretched!
