Howince Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 I'm seriously hoping that no one here honestly thinks they would have voluntarily chosen playback over live - I think it's a bit ridiculous for people to expect every forced playback performance to be one massive piss-take every time too. Go back and watch Fucking Feeling Good or that Italian one if you're feeling disappointed. we all know they have the guts to do it, so the fact they may not have felt like it or for any other reason is no reason to complain.

Melania13 Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 the theory is that they hadnt been able to bring everything to do a live show because they wouldnt have had time to send everything to the next gig.. or something like that.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meean Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Well here a song analysis of both the "live" and vinyl tracks: Vinyl on top and "live" on the bottom. They're off by a bit due to being different tempos. http://imgur.com/qrHxy.png I'll be putting up a link to a minute-longish snippet of the two tracks laid on top of each other. Damning evidence. Edit: Here are the two tracks overlaid. http://soundcloud.com/meean/muselipsync Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattXXI Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 I honestly, could care less. If you actually watch them you can sense the unenthusiasm from every member on stage. Just because they didn't switch places and make a mockery of the entire thing doesn't mean shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkfloyddsotm Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 come on matty i thought you would have been anti-authority by now with all the anti establishment lyrical content in muse songs im sure they would have have said no to playback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkadelic Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 I think everyone is wondering if they would still be willing to or want to do that today. I'm sure they would. The Italian one was only last year after all. They've done playback in the past (including the Abso and Origin eras) without fucking around, so I don't see what the big deal is.

museyness Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 GODDAMMIT.... But I love how Chris was practically rolling his eyes at one point and how they had these dying-from-boredom looks on their faces! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiT Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Obviously it wasn't their choice. So stop saying "what happened to Muse?". It's fuckin boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a-museing Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 At the end of the day they are promoting their music so it's understandable that they don't take the piss all the time. Anyway it wouldn't be as funny if they just decided to take the piss everytime they mimed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 I like that when Muse are taking the piss, people are saying "It's good that they don't just do things like this just because they are told to, because that would be like selling out! This is what I love about Muse", and when Muse aren't taking the piss, people are saying "It's good that Muse doesn't take the piss all the time, and besides, who cares?"

spark_ Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Think you're pretty horribly misrepresenting people's opinions. No one likes that they're lipsyncing and not taking the piss but at the same time no reasonable person is overly concerned about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was that people are just finding excuses for what they did, just so that they can go on believing that Muse are the rock band they were 10 years ago...

If that was directed at me, I don't believe that Muse are the rockband they were 10 years ago. I just don't know why they need to take the piss all the time to keep people on their messageboard happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil. Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 I just find it funny how HUNDREDS of other bands and artists BIGGER than muse, have mimed seriously. But no, Muse are anarchists, if they mime properly this is equal to selling out and being shit.... Obviously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't know why they need to take the piss all the time to keep people on their messageboard happy. Not directly at you, but the overall vibe in here is that people are defending Muse just so that they can keep their image of the ideal Muse.
