saturn79 Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 3/5 This song OOZES in cheese. The lyrics are extremely painful to listen to and the first section before the first chorus is not so hot either. However, the chorus is uplifting and the last piano section at the end is magnificent. Quite honestly, I am worried about the future of this band.

wombat_714 Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Catchy music, but the lyrics are too cheese-tastic for my tastes. Maybe it'll grow on me, but for now it's a 2/5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArizonaMuse Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 I gave the new song a 4 . I had to dock a point for the less than inspiring lyrics. AMxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muse are terrible Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 I gave it a 0. Might increase to a 1 on repeated listens. Seriously though, Muse have hit a new low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
You Look So Fine Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Really, really not a fan of the beginning. Or any of the verses for that matter. I love the chorus however. The keyboard and guitar combined with the vocals are just spectacular. I think Matt's voice has hit a new level of awesomeness. Not going to say anything about the lyrics. I think that's for the best. But that piano section at the end? Absolutely orgasmic. I gave it a 2 because the verses really bring it down for me. I'm kind of all over the place with my opinion about this song. We'll see what I think in a few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apap3rplat3 Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Gave it a 3 but I would have given it a 3.5 if the option were available. Not amazing, but not terrible either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teej212 Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 i gave it a 2, i would have given it a one, but there were some interesting piano parts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkylerZX Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 I like the song overall so I give it a 3.7 Things I don't like are: The corny lyrics, but I guess this is for Eclipse so what do you expect The sound of the first line in each verse I don't dig the KoC style guitar that starts in the second verse either Apart from that, not bad.

Llama of Time Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 I'd give it like a 1.5/5, which rounds up to 2 so we'll go with that. The lyrics just kill it for me, so cheesy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tunavi Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 I like it a lot better now that i know its about looking back to the beginning of an ended relationship. Cool synths, great chord progressions, interesting song structure, great vocals (backup as well), awesome drums, ADAGIO SOSENTRO. Too queeny but I like it. However, its not what I want to hear with the next album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furygirl Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 I'd give it about a 2.8, but obviously I have to round up to a 3. In 1982 I might have given it a 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Born Lee Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 It's pretty boring creatively, the lyrics are rubbish and it screams that of that awful Guiding Light glam. That said, it's unreasonably catchy. 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZRoy626 Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Meh, I give it a 3. 1st minute of song is incredibly cheesy I couldn't believe it, same with lyrics. Instruments are cool. And it has a catchy chorus. I'd say 3 is fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davinq Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 I'd give it about a 2.8, but obviously I have to round up to a 3. In 1982 I might have given it a 4. this. I voted four but I meant 3.5. The cheesy lyrics are a huge fail, doubly so since they're so understandable compared to Matt's usual draaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawing ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut of woooooooooooooooords. It feels like a lot of ideas crammed into one tune, so more points lost there - t'would have been much better if it were dragged out. I don't mind the KoC influence at all, but the blatant 80's needs to stop, it loses a lot of points there. ESPECIALLY IN DOM'S DRUMS. I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH. The first chorus beat is so 80s cheese it's awful. After that though, it's really not too bad, but I hope the 80's + Queen + classical + synth arpeggio = one song formula doesn't become a Muse trademark, it's just too much in one song to handle. Overall though, it was so much better than I expected, which was a simple, boring Starlight-esque track. This has a lot more to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furygirl Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 ^ And it sounds EARLY '80s at that. But still, knowing the circumstances of its writing makes me have a tender spot for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skrillzzz1109 Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 1.5 catchy chorus despite cringey lyrics but other than that it just sounds like a parody of muse This. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninsp Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 3/5. It has everything that makes Muse good but the lyrics are quite cheese and the song lacks any bite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awaketochaseadream Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 2/5. I get what this song is about, but I just cannot forgive the first minute of the song, plus the fact that to me, it sounds like several other Muse songs sewn together with a layer of cheese crusted on top. The song doesn't have it's own essence to me, and I'd say that most Muse songs do, whether they are good or bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
