Luis.S Posted July 18, 2010 Posted July 18, 2010 I found talking about the saddest Muse songs quite depressing haha, so I thought we could discuss the happiest ones as well to lighten the mood up Sorry if this already exists, I couldn't find it in search. All Muse songs can make me really happy when I listen to them, but now that I'm thinking about it, I'm really struggling to find songs I would actually call "happy" songs. What does everyone else think? What I've come up with so far: Popcorn KOC Bliss, although the chorus can be taken negatively Invincible, or at least its lyrics Uprising Don't know about any of Absolution or Showbiz, maybe Apocalypse Please, despite being in a minor key and being about the end of the world This is actually quite hard.
HenryW7 Posted July 18, 2010 Posted July 18, 2010 bliss is supposed to be sad, about envy, however it does have a happy mood and feeling good is happy KoC , uprising and AP are not what I would call "happy" Undisclosed Desires is one of their more happy love songs
miss_meadows Posted July 18, 2010 Posted July 18, 2010 The only ones coming to my mind would be SMBH and IBTY.
rainingradioheads Posted July 18, 2010 Posted July 18, 2010 Starlight. Musically maybe... I'm gonna go with Invincible and IBTY. Maybe I'm interpreting Invincible wrong, but it sounds happy enough to me.
Raiko Posted July 18, 2010 Posted July 18, 2010 The song's lyrics may not be so positive, but Map of Your Head has this happy little skip about it lol.
AguanteRiver Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 With Muse there are so many songs that sound happy, then you get into the lyrics and realize how depressing/angry/obsessive they really are. (I'm looking at you, Bliss!) The only ones I can think of that are 100% happy are Feeling Good--and it doesn't really count, because it's a cover--and Invincible. Popcorn definitely. Ummmm...possibly Bedroom Acoustics--a very mellow sort of happy. IBTY, 'cause it's jazzy and cheesy. The cover of Can't Take My Eyes Off You. Fillip...maybe? IDK what that song is about, but it sounds happy. I'd add Butterflies and Hurricanes as well. It's not "happy", really, but it is positive.

"its happening soon!!" like a little kid excited for christmas or....sex?
Riveon Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 and feeling good is happy There seems to be a lot of evidence against that.
Gigapoodle Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 Undisclosed Desires seems to be a happy song. Happy songs don't do well with the charts and Muse though. Stick to the depressing songs.
xbroken_ideals Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 Fillip! "its happening soon!!" like a little kid excited for christmas or....sex? Yes, sex. Although the chorus seems a little on the negative side. "And it's gonna be our last memory.." P.S. Holy crap, who's the Ninja Assassin who tagged this thread?
Travis III Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 Invincible, Undisclosed Desires and I Belong To You.
Anxyous Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 Map of Your Head sounds really happy. It really really isn't though.
Mizutsu Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 Feeling Good, IBTY, Map of your Head, Undisclosed Desires, Unintended. Not really that many happy ones.
tillydog Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Invicible blackout and starlight are some of the happier muse songs.
madzip Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Invincible? Undisclosed Desires? IBTY? Are you people having a laugh.... The only one I don't skip out of those 3 is UD ... Is UD a happy song? 'Fraid not... I think the lyrics are, well, a bit creepy... you trick your lovers that your wicked and divine... you may be a sinner but your innocence is mine.... not to mention.. I want to reconcile the violence in your heart I want to recognise your beauty's not just a mask I want to exorcise the demons from your past I want to satisfy the undisclosed desires in your heart Seems like the object of Matts affection has a few 'issues'... There is however one Muse song that is guaranteed to put a smile on my face and make me jump about with joy each and every time I hear it... Knights of Cydonia... see, it makes me smile just typing its name!

So true :LOL:
In Ryanbows Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 creep is quite cheery. The Gloaming. The Lukewarm. It had to happen didn't it. I'd say their happiest song is Planet Telex Fillip or IBTY.
PocketRockets Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 Thinking about it, there really aren't that many! Probably Knights of Cydonia or I Belong to You.
