It was the first song I liked off The Resistance and I still love hearing it.

[Riveon]

Not really no.

Beat me to it.

[Travis III]

Yeah, I think it's one of the better songs on TR. Quite catchy, with nice lyrics.

When I heard it at Teignmouth, absolutely loved it. Loved it for a while, then it got boring for me. But now, with the double neck manson performances, its regained my liking.

same here! well i still enjoy listening to it, but not as much as i used to. but i immediately liked the lyrics because of 1984 but if they dropped it from their setlist i wouldn't mind, there are songs that are far better live!

definately wouldn't miss it off the live shows, although, the intro when he plays it on the double neck... amazing.

Same here! When the album was released "Resistance" was one of the songs I liked most of it. Now I still like the song but the passion is gone. Mhm, the lyrics are very very very obvious (thought police...) and cheesy. But I like the beginning and the whole atmosphere of the song. The live versions I've heard haven't really been too impressive, though.

[hypermusic]

I still love it

[Hopix]

Awesome track.

[Wingardium LevioSIA]

I think it's still my favourite track on the album. The only thing that might have overtaken it is Redemption. I expected not to like Resistance much based on the iTunes preview, but then I ended up loving it from the first time I heard it.

 

And yeah, it is underrated. It was quite popular at first, but it's been bashed a lot since then, which it doesn't deserve.

Here's one of several threads discussing the song:

And btw, I like the song a lot. Great bass line especially.

[Repeaterbeater]

i only properly like the bridge

[Spectrum IV]

 

I'm hungry...

[a-museing]

Good track but I have a love/hate relationship with the 'Could be wrong' parts.

[Obi]

It's just very boring. I liked it at first but it grew off very quickly.

[Stellaris]

Good track but I have a love/hate relationship with the 'Could be wrong' parts.

 

Me too, tending toward hate. I think the song could be much better without it.

That's the only thing I like about the song.

It reminds me of that stupid song from Grease: "Tell me more, tell me more..."

That's the first thing I thought of when I heard that bit. Even see my sig. Also, a bit later on reminds me of A Little Respect by Erasure. But those reminders don't stop it being great. Sometimes they make me laugh, but never in a bad way, a bit like how "counterbalance this commotion..." in Unnatural Selection reminds me of Lay All Your Love On Me by ABBA. And I still like US too.

I just listened to that ABBA song and I can totally hear the similarity! For the record, I like US too.

the ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun bit is so creep

I also thought that when I first heard that song, being a fan of ABBA and Muse. , my friend says that it was a nod to ABBA, but I don't know. Sounds nice though
