SuperGinge Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 i like screenager, both album and live version....although i am more swayed to live versions of any of Muse's songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkadelic Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 It's one of my favourite slower songs, and you gotta love Dom's amazing Screenager-playing skills. The creaking sounds used to really freak me out though. haha Hullabaloo and Montreux. <3 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTNc6YsMSjo Dom's face. I love the weirder Muse songs.

InsertCreativeNameHere Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 I've seen some Screenager bashing from time to time. I think its brilliant live, don't care much for the album version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dramatic Hammer Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 though it's not 'bluesy' at all. my favourite muse song to play on guitar +1 What is it then? It's more flamenco-y - doesn't use the right scale at all for blues:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apocalyptic Gerbil Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 It's easy in my top 5 fave Muse songs ever and my second fave on OoS after New Born. The chorus is gorgeous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lick My Face Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 I like playing this song on t'Bass. It's a no-brainer, and it gives me a chance to think about how gorgeous the song is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Absolution Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 i like Screenager, although the piano from the live version sounds better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devon cream tea Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 i wasn't a huge fan of it to begin with. until i saw them play it live at V festival! gave me goosebumps. now i adore it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travisx2112 Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 One of my faves! It's a very vocally (and musically) beautiful song! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASoulNotExhumed Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I keep reading all these people's posts saying it sounds "weird" after seven "heavy" songs. First off, I don't consider Space Dementia to be terribly, heavy, and Citizen Erased is like a microcosm of the entire album in that it runs the entire gamut of emotion on OoS so again I can't consider it to be "heavy" like Hyper Music or Micro Cuts. Anyway, I personally find Screenager to beautiful in that it gives you a break from jamming out; it nearly catches you off guard, but I find that entertaining when I'm listening to an album. Throw me off guard, Muse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throw me off guard, Muse! Heaven forbid a change of pace. I always though Muse was supposed to be like Metallica or something? Didn't you get the memo that said Muse was a death-core band?

Problemfanatique Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I do think Screenager is a very beautiful song, it's just after hearing the first 7 songs, and then hearing the percussion in this one, it's so different and drastically experimental that I feel like it doesn't fit too much. However, if I listen to it on it's own then it's fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InsertCreativeNameHere Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I'm the other way round, I find it okay to listen to in the scheme of the album but I'll never listen to it on its own. The Hullabaloo version I like to listen to on its own though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if I listen to it on it's own then it's fine I'd rather have a band trying new interesting things then "same old same old" just to "keep the groove". But that's because I want the musical boundaries pushed all the time and Muse do that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's because I want the musical boundaries pushed all the time and Muse do that! I don't think he meant that. He meant that the song didn't thematically fit in on the album. I know what he means although I like the song. It's better on piano though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
