Hi,<br />
<br />
there seems to be a fair bit of spam going on with random users being created here over the past few weeks. Cheers (Darkshined).<br />
:Hmm, strangely no malicious spam links due to another plugin stopping them, sad they cracked my simple Captcha, need to figure the best way to combat it.<br />

== Spammers ==<br />
<br />
Hi, there is quite a bit of spam posted here recently, especially on user pages. No admins seem to be active who are able to delete such pages. It would be great if there was at least one active admin, or if I or someone else of the more active users could be given the right to delete pages. (I'm also sending this to [[User:Tene|Tene]].) [[User:Time Q|Time Q]] ([[User talk:Time Q|talk]]) 11:37, 20 May 2013 (BST)<br />
:Hmmm, sad news because I thought my captcha was spotless! No idea how they could answer that question. I'll see if I can change the questions up a bit, if the folks stop then we're good, if not, it looks like the captcha system is compromised --[[User:Crazybobbles|crazybobbles]] ([[User talk:Crazybobbles|talk]]) 13:25, 26 May 2013 (BST)<br />

== Spammers, again ==<br />
<br />
There has been a ridiculous amount of spamming lately again (new users creating user pages with spam text). Obviously your captcha system is still not fixed. Please do something about it, or give some of the more active users admin rights so they can fight the spam; it can't get really worse, can it? (All I can do is empty the user pages and mark them to be deleted, which actually surprises me a bit... why can I edit other users' pages? Can they do it with my page as well?) [[User:Time Q|Time Q]] ([[User talk:Time Q|talk]]) 23:30, 27 August 2013 (BST)<br />
:Hngh, i blocked most of the but they're back... it was such an amazing captcha job too.<br />
<br />
== Spammers. AGAIN. ==<br />
<br />
Here's a little heads-up that there's a bunch of spammers vandalizing the wiki again. Your captcha system doesn't seem to work, and there is '''not a single active user''' that has rights to delete pages. Draw your own conclusions. But this is definitely the last time I cleaned up after the spammers without being able to delete their crap right away. It's really frustrating.

:Thank you for promoting me to administrator! I hope that'll help prevent the worst.

== Description ==<br />
[[Matthew Bellamy]]: "It's an expression of what it feels like to be questioned. I spend more time than most people being asked about purpose, and it's a strange feeling. I don't really have the answers and I have to respond on the knowledge I have obtained so far, but the problem is that it gets printed, and something else has come along that's made you completely disagree with what you said".<br />
<br />
The song could also be a reference to [[George Orwell | Orwell]]'s ''[[Nineteen Eighty-Four]]'' in which citizens are erased and lies control society. It was written around a drum beat that [[Dominic Howard]] composed, matt said: "On Citizen Erased, Dom came in one day with this funky James Brown beat and Chris just started playing along. I then applied the chord structure that I already had and it suddenly became a full-on metal track out of nowhere. Because it was so heavy for so long we decided to add another song on to the end of it." <ref>Guitarist Magazine - What all the Hullabaloo is about. [september 2002]</ref><br />
<br />
=== Live ===<br />
The first live performance of Citizen Erased had the outro played on guitar rather than keyboard. The keyboard outro was introduced at least as early as the 12{{supo|th}} April 2001 - no recording exists between the first performance and then.<br />
<br />
A different riff replaced the guitar solo towards the middle of the song during the [[Absolution (album) | Absolution]] tour. During the 2006 tour, the vocals of the instrumental between the final chorus and final verse were removed. These returned partially by [[Paris Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy 2006 - 15th (gig) | Paris-Bercy, 15{{supo|th}} December 2006]], or possibly sometime prior on the late 2006 European tour. Additional drumming was added during this interlude on the aforementioned date.<br />
<br />
Citizen Erased is the only song where the [[Manson 7 String E Guitar | 7 String E Guitar]] is used. Coincidentally, it is assumed a six-string was used to record this song, thought to be the [[Manson Delorean | Delorean]], as a [[Z.Vex Fuzz Factory | Fuzz Factory]] is featured in the solo, and early photos of said guitar show a bass string in place of the low E string, in order to accommodate drop A tuning. Matt owned both guitars at the time of recording, so it can't be said for sure which guitar(s) he used.<br />
<br />
== Music trivia == <br />
<br />
For the week starting 9{{supo|th}} July 2007, some members of [[Muselive.com]] and other fan-sites attempted to get Citizen Erased into the UK charts. It eventually reached position N{{supt|o}} 122. Jesting about the song's popularity three years later, Matthew Bellamy commented "[...] so we've got to change our website I think to uh— from Muse.mu to CitizenErased.com", before performing it [[Manchester Old Trafford Cricket Ground 2010 (gig) | within Old Trafford Cricket Ground]].<br />
<br />
During the [[The Resistance (album) | Resistance]] tour in Sydney on the 9{{supo|th}} of December, Bellamy dedicated "Citizen Arrested" to Julian Assange, the Australian WikiLeaks founder who had been arrested in Sweden regarding alleged sexual offences just days earlier before the song.<br />

Hi, why did you change the latest performance of Endlessly from 22 April 2004 to 21 February 2004? Do you know it was ''not'' played on the April gig? Unfortunately we don't have a setlist for it. But even if it was not played there, then it was still played on the [[Dublin Olympia Theatre 2004 - 22nd (gig)|22nd February]].

<br />
== Set lists ==<br />
<br />
Can you please use proper format for the setlists? You can just copy and paste it from one gig page to another. And please check your links, red links are always bad. Thank you. [[User:Time Q|Time Q]] ([[User talk:Time Q|talk]]) 21:39, 19 August 2013 (BST)<br />
<br />
== Set lists, part 2 ==<br />

Hi, I wonder where you get those rather obscure setlists from, e.g. [[Calgary MacEwan Hall Ballroom 2004 (gig)]]. What is your source? And can you please link to the source in your future edits?

== Description ==<br />
According to Dom and Matt initially, the song was going to be a quiet song and sweet with a gradual rise due Rich Costey ideas and that "There was something truly epic present when it was really quiet at the beginning" and then "It was changed just before recording, originally it was just a strange and quiet riff" but then it was reworked with a huge and monstrous chorus riff and end that gives it a really heavy effect.<ref name="RockMagSeptember2003"><br />

<br />
While this song was written on piano by [[Matthew Bellamy]], it was recorded on both guitar and synths. Matt then mixed both of the sounds together. The main riff was inspired by [[System of a Down]].<ref>Total Guitar - Matt Bellamy tells us the amazing story behind Absolution. September/2003]</ref> Standard set closer throughout the Absolution tour and sometimes during the Black Holes and Revelations tour. Usually multiple riffs are played after the song. An example of this is the L.A Staples Centre Gig in which more than eight riffs were played after Stockholm Syndrome.<br />
<br />
[[Dominic Howard|Dom]] explains that: 'Stockholm Syndrome', concerns a medical complaint whereby someone falls in love with the person that has kidnapped them; "In 1973 some bank robbers went to rob a bank and ended up taking six people hostage and it went on Tv, But the hostages ended up defending the captives in cout and one of the hostages got married to one of the captors"<ref name="NME20130913"><br />

<br />
== Additional information ==<br />
The syndrome is named after the Norrmalmstorg robbery of Kreditbanken at Norrmalmstorg, Stockholm in which the bank robbers held bank employees hostage from August 23 to August 28, 1973. In this case, the victims became emotionally attached to, and even defended, their captors after they were freed from their six-day ordeal. The term was coined by the criminologist and psychologist Nils Bejerot, who assisted the police during the robbery, and referred to the syndrome in a news broadcast. The majority of the hostages were okay, but one of them committed suicide and another changed his name to that of one of his captors and disappeared.<br />
<br />
This song was first written by Matt on the piano, before being played on the guitar.<br />
<br />
The song was added to [[Guitar Hero 3]] on 8th May 2008 along with [[Supermassive Black Hole (song) | Supermassive Black Hole]] and [[Exo-Politics (song) | Exo-Politics]] as part of a Muse track pack.<br />
<br />
A cover of this song is featured on [[the String Quartet Tribute]] to Muse.<br />
<br />
Mike Portnoy of [[Dream Theater]] covered the intro on his drumming focused ‘‘In Constant Motion‘‘ DVD {{YT |XccQ7AYFRWM}}<br />

<flashmp3>http://www.musewiki.org/images/Inverted_Stockholm_Syndrome_Refrain.mp3|rightbg=0xDDEEFF|leftbg=0xDDEEFF|bg=0xFFFFFF</flashmp3><br><br />
When the chorus is played backwards, it sounds something like "You can't see me, we sneak off. I lost to love. Please ... save the night wind and high above, I lost to love. Sing, save". Allegedly.<br />

No one will recall, no one will recall <br />
<br />
This is the last time I'll abandon you<br />
And this is<br />
The last time I'll forget you<br />
I wish I could<br />
<br />
Look to the stars<br />
Let hope burn in your eyes<br />
And we'll love and we'll hate and we'll die<br />
All to no avail, all to no avail <br />
<br />
This is the last time I'll abandon you <br />
And this is<br />
The last time I'll forget you <br />
I wish I could <br />
<br />
This is the last time I'll abandon you <br />
And this is<br />
The last time I'll forget you <br />
I wish I could <br />
I wish I could<br />

==Description==<br />
A song lamenting dying crops and abused nature, inspired by Matt's concerns of industrial greed and business monopolies. 'Explorers' is drenched in the sense of not belonging in your own world. Nearly called 'Alien Explorers,' Matt claimed, but "not in the way of aliens from outer space but in the way of feeling like an alien on your own planet. It's about the intense desire to grow and expand - at some point nature will become the minority. I'm not sure if I'm really coming from an environmental thing - [Explorers] is where I'm singing about my views on property rights. The idea that corporations can own vast tracts of foreign countries. I'm not sure if the deal went through but, I think it was in Paraguay or Uraguay, the Bush family bought something like a million acres of land, which underneath contains the biggest natural water reservoir in South America. At some point there has to be someone who says: 'That's not right.' Can BP buy Nigeria? At the moment they can. They could buy it and they kick all the natives out, shoot them down or whatever and just say, 'We own this now.'"<ref>http://www.muselive.com/index.php?m=single&id=6747</ref>.<br />
<br />
According to Jeuxactu, a French magazine, Matt's vocals evoke similar feelings to the song Blackout. <ref>http://www.muselive.com/forums.php?m=posts&q=52987&d=0</ref><br />
<br />
The intro bears a very strong resemblance to [[Sergei Rachmaninov|Rachmaninov's]] Piano Concerto No.2 Op.18 at 18:40. It is essentially the motif Rachmaninov wrote changed from minor to major.<br />
<br />
In the chorus, you can hear similar vocals to Invincible.<br />
<br />
During live performances there is a drum & bass jam called Monty Jam (Montpeller jam) which is similar to Nishe.<br />
<br />
== Information ==<br />
By error of Bellamy, Howard, Wolstenholme or Kirk, the name of the song was leaked by a photo on Twitter, until it was deleted.<br />

{{lyrics<br />
|Once I hoped<br />
To seek the new and unknown<br />
This planet's overrun<br />
There's nothing left for you or for me<br />
Don't give in<br />
We can walk through the fields<br />
And feeling nature's glow<br />
But all the land is owned<br />
There's none left for you or for me<br />
Who will win?<br />
‘Cause I concede<br />
<br />
Free me<br />
Free me<br />
Free me from this world<br />
I don't belong here<br />
It was a mistake imprisoning my soul<br />
Can you free me<br />
Free me from this world<br />
<br />
A world lush and blue<br />
With rivers running wild<br />
They'll be re-routed south<br />
With none left for you or for me<br />
Don't give in<br />
Hear the engines roar<br />
And save our crops from drought<br />
But when the black gold's in doubt<br />
There's none left for you or me<br />
Fuse helium-3, our last hope<br />
<br />
Free me<br />
Free me<br />
Free me from this world<br />
We don't belong here<br />
It was a mistake imprisoning our souls<br />
Can you free me<br />
And free me from this world?<br />

Free me<br />
I’ll free you<br />
Free us from this world<br />
We don't belong here<br />
It was a mistake imprisoning our souls<br />
Can you free me<br />
And free me from this world?<br />
<br />
Running around in circles feeling caged by endless rules<br />
Can you free me<br />
Free me from this world?<br />

Shh, go to sleep<br />

== Description ==<br />
Possibly about a bad relationship. An early Muse song originally recorded on the [[Newton Abbot demo (demo) | Newton Abbot demo]]. The song contains a section in the unusual time signature of 5/4.<br />
<br />
== Additional information ==<br />
A live favourite in the ''[[Showbiz (album) | Showbiz]]'' tours and played occasionally in 2001. The outro riff of Agitated is sometimes played live after "[[Stockholm Syndrome (song) | Stockholm Syndrome]]".<br />
<br />
After 12 years absent from setlists, the song made a comeback in 2013, beginning when it was played in [[Helsinki Olympiastadion 2013 (gig) | Helsinki]] on the final show of the stadium tour. It continued to be played at subsequent shows in Asia and North America, usually following Stockholm Syndrome.<br />
<br />
The released recording of the song was mastered at the Abbey Road studios in London.<ref>[[Uno (single)#AU CD | Uno AU CD]] notes</ref><br />
<br />
Bears a striking resemblance to Mission of Burma's 'Laugh the World Away', from the Album 'Vs.' (released 1982).<br />
<br />
At 2:00 someone, possibly [[Matthew Bellamy]], says something like "Emo" or "Hello".<br />
<br />
The outro of the song (1:53 to 2:17) is written and played in 5/4 timing.<br />
<br />

<br />
==Description==<br />
A song featuring stringed instrumentation reminiscent of the ''Lawrence of Arabia'' soundtrack by Maurice Jarre and "Live and Let Die" by Paul McCartney, and falsetto vocals<ref name="le200907"/> reminiscent of "Bohemian Rhapsody" by [[Queen]] <ref>{{cite/nme20090707}}</ref>. The song's piano opening closely resembles that of Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful". Its Phrygian dominant piano riff bears similarity to the "Parade of the Slave Children" theme from the film ''Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom''. The song also features a somewhat altered recital of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nocturnes_Op._9_%28Chopin%29 Nocturne Op.9 No.2] in Eb by [[Frédéric Chopin]] in its outro, "Collateral Damage".<ref name="le200907"/> "Collateral Damage" features additional sounds such as children laughing and ends with the sound of a jet fighter, merging into [[Guiding Light (song)]].<ref name="le200907"/><br />
<br />
Matt said, "Musically this is influenced by Ravel, Tchaikovsky and 1970s song writing/string arrangements. The ending features Chopin's 'Nocturne, Op. 9, No. 2' with sound effects evoking innocence and then the military, towards the very end (a take on the term 'collateral damage' - a cold term used by politicians and the media to trivialise the killing of completely innocent people in war). The song is from an imaginary musical about a 'United States of Eurasia', the search for peace and the accidental creation of a new super power challenging American primacy."<ref>iTunes LP - The Resistance</ref><br />
<br />
==Information==<br />
The song title was found by Muse fans from a picture on Twitter of Matt holding a score.<ref name="mu20090522"> <br />

}}</ref> The name comes from the book [[The_Grand_Chessboard: American_Primacy and Its Geostrategic Imperatives|"The Grand Chessboard"]] by [[Zbigniew Brzeziński]], who puts forward the view that Eurasia must be controlled by the USA to secure oil supplies.<ref name="mj200907"/><br />
<br />
In addition, it draws influence from "[[Nineteen Eighty-Four]]" by [[George Orwell]],<ref name="mj200907"/> in which Eurasia arbitrarily changes between ally and enemy of Big Brother country Oceania. This is where the idiom "We have always been at war with Eurasia/Eastasia" came from, typically employed in response to the most obvious political uses of the exposure effect to convince a populace that a ruling figure or party said or did the opposite of that which was in fact actually said or done.<br />
<br />
"United States of Eurasia" was the first song released from ''[[The Resistance (album)|The Resistance]]'', ultimately being found piece by piece as the result of the [[Ununited States of Eurasia]] microsite that was launched alongside the new [[Official Muse website]], from which "Project Eurasia" took place.<ref name="mu20090708"><br />

<br />
==Collateral Damage==<br />
Collateral Damage, the outro to the song, was released on 21st July 2009 by download after the final station was activated. It is a piano recital of [[Nocturne In E-Flat Major, Op.9 No.2]], by Frédéric Chopin, with a vocal/stringed accompaniment. The outro also features blurry childlike laughter, sounds of machine guns, explosions and ending with the sound of a jet fighter flying over head.<br />
<br />
In an interview with Absolute Radio, Matt said during the recording of United States of Eurasia + Collateral Damage, they wanted to have a lot of warfare type sound effects in addition to the kids playing and the jet taking off. "We wanted to go record sounds of real warfare.. we wanted to go to the middle east but it turns out that's not a good idea is it?".<br />
<br />
In the official sheet music for the song, there is a mistake in bar 79. In the tenth beat of the right hand, the B natural should be a B flat, as evidenced in the original Chopin sheet music.<br />

== Description ==<br />
'Liquid State' is one of two songs on the album written by Chris about his struggle with alcoholism, the other being 'Save Me'. Chris said the song was 'written about the person you become when you're intoxicated and how the two of them are having this fight inside of you and it tears you apart'.<br />
<br />
According to some of the latest interviews, this song (Liquid State) is the heaviest song on the entire album, and has been compared to Queens of the Stone Age. It bears resemblance to the Queens of the Stone Age song "You Think I Ain't Worth a Dollar, But I Feel Like a Millionaire".<br />
<br />
== Information ==<br />
The song's name was unknown until the 13th July 2012, the day that Muse tweeted the same picture with Dom and the leaked names, but with the working titles replaced by the new album tracking list. It's unknown if this song is linked with one of the others in the board, in the old picture, or if it's another one.<br />
<br />
The song was also featured in one of the trailers for a video game, Crysis 3, released on February 7th, 2013<br />

==Description==<br />
The most popular [[Muse]] cover, and covered because of Matt's ex-girlfriend's liking of the song.<ref name="xfmdoc">{{cite/xfm20071007}}</ref> The song was used by Nescafé for their advertisement but without the band's permission. The band denied them the use of the song because they didn't believe in having their music used to advertise supermarket products. Nescafé withdrew that version for a different version. Muse were subsequently paid £500,000 of settlement money, which they donated to Oxfam.<ref name="xfmdoc"/><br />
<br />
In an interview with Rocksound Magazine, Bellamy stated that "our interpretation is quite different from the original, but nowhere near as good. I chose it because it’s got brilliant lyrics, and it fits in with some of the other songs on the album. It’s about becoming you – getting rid of your past and thinking about leading a new life. I just want people to know that underlying what I do is something positive, and that I’m not here to kill myself or to destroy the situation we live in.”<ref>Rock Sound Spain 31/07/01</ref><br />
<br />
In Taratata part 2,the host tells Matt that he has heard that Matt's mother likes the song. Bellamy replies with "loves the song."<br />
<br />
"Feeling Good" was written by Anthony Newley and Leslie Bricusse for the musical "The Roar of the Greasepaint - The Smell of the Crowd", though was made famous when performed by the legendary jazz artist [[Nina Simone]].<br />
<br />
==Matthew Bellamy definition of Feeling Good==<br />
<br />
"The music is very dark and moody but as plain text the lyrics are just a cheesy, happy poem, just so amazingly positive, and It can make you feel like there's really something worth fighting for. It is depressing but it’s almost like humanity singing about how good things could be"<ref>Rock Sound - 2001</ref><br />
<br />
==Composition==<br />
Feeling Good is written in the key of G minor. It moves in 12/8 time at a slow tempo of 72 bpm.<br />
<br />
Bellamy's vocal range spans from F3 to F5. The song contains his highest note in the modal register, B♭4, which is shared with [[Unnatural Selection (song)|Unnatural Selection]], [[Futurism (song)|Futurism]], [[Madness (song)|Madness]], [[Survival (song)|Survival]] and [[Big Freeze (song)|Big Freeze]].<br />
<br />
==Additional information==<br />
This cover was commonly played live between 2000 and 2003, but wasn't played between [[Reykjavík Laugardalshöll 2003 (gig)|Laugardalshöll 2003]] and [[Neuhausen ob Eck Southside Festival 2006 (gig)|Southside Festival 2006]]. It was once again played regularly live from 2006 onwards.<br />
<br />
This song was played on Spanish TVE:Radio3 as a live recording, in which, after the second verse, Matt Bellamy started swearing in time with the music for two lines; they were told not to swear which angered Muse as they never swore in their music until then, so they swore extensively. The video for this can be found [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGnw_WtQflY here]. Muse have been banned from Radio 3 ever since. During the performance, he sang "Fucking, fucking, fucking, fucking hell! Fucking, fucking little, fucking, fucking fuckers, yeah!".<br />
<br />
In live performances, Matt sings the third verse through a megaphone.<br />
<br />
This song was used during the credits of an episode of the mini series Luther.<br />
<br />
==Alternative versions==<br />
A radio edit of "Feeling Good" with clean vocals on the third verse and can be found on the second [[Hyper Music/Feeling Good (single)#Promo|UK "Hyper Music/Feeling Good" promo CD]] (catalogue number 'MUSE 19'). An isolation of the drum, bass and keyboard feeds from the H.A.A.R.P. show features in the audio set-up section of the ''[[H.A.A.R.P. (live)|H.A.A.R.P.]]'' DVD. It was first played live as a guitar version in the [[BBC Studios 1999 (gig)|BBC session in 1999]] (also known as "diferent take session").<br />

==Description==<br />
Live song that was played towards the end of each set. Standard set closer between the releases of [[Origin of Symmetry (album)|Origin of Symmetry]] and [[Absolution (album)|Absolution]]. During some live performances, the band played an Extended version in which the main riff is repeated and mixed with some improvisation. This can be seen in the Hullabaloo DVD. Made occasional appearances during the Black Holes and Revelations Tour and The Resistance Tour. Bellamy occasionally goes up an octave for the first half of the final chorus, an example being at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Xq1Ay5_qHs Live 8 2005].<br />
<br />
==Matthew Bellamy's definition of Bliss==<br />
<br />
"This is probably the most positive track, the most truly embracing song. It's almost in awe of the situation I've been given, because it's a state of mind were you give out everything you have without any need for return. It's also a song aimed towards some-one's youth, someone who hasn't been exposed to stuff yet"<ref>Rock Sound - 2001</ref><br />
<br />
==Composition==<br />
Bliss is an electronic rock song that moves at a fast tempo of 129 bpm. The song begins and ends with piano arpeggios, but the majority of the song is synth-driven. Bellamy's vocal range spans from F3 to E5, except for live performances, where he sometimes hits G5 in the last chorus. The song is mostly written in the key of C minor, shifting to C major for the chorus.<br />
<br />
==Additional information==<br />
Bliss is the song that represents the best state of mind you can have. It’s a state of mind where you give out everything you have without any need for return. It's also a song aimed towards someone’s youth, someone who hasn’t been exposed to stuff yet. However it should be a positive song, the lyrics give the impression that you're envy on a person and you want to be just like him/her because s/he looks perfect to you and you're not.<br />
<br />
[[Matt Bellamy]] has stated that Bliss is his favorite song "because it's got all these 80s arpeggios and keyboards on it which remind me of some music I heard on some children’s music programme when I was five. I think I ripped it off that. And that reminds me of when I was a bit simpler, a bit more of a pleasant state."<ref>{{cite web | publisher=IMWR | title=inmuseworld.net - Bliss Lyrics and information | url=http://http://www.inmuseworld.net/revelations/songs.php?id=302&title=Bliss}}</ref> The "children's music programme" is actually the first [[Top Gear]] game for the SNES.<br />
<br />
Received its first airing at the Bizarre Festival in Germany in 2000, without guitars, mostly bass led and featuring reversed lyrics and a somewhat erratic keyboard, sounding similar to the music of an old arcade game. A second version featuring guitars debuted early 2001, though the riff is different to the album version.<br />
<br />
The album version was recorded in the shroomed-up Dave Bottrill sessions.<br />
<br />
Sometimes when the song is sung live, Bellamy begins the final chorus with a wailing falsetto and continues it into the first line, before singing the final two lines in the chorus in his normal register.<br />
<br />
===Alternate versions===<br />
The [[Origin of Symmetry (album)#Unmastered press preview, unmastered UK CD-R|Origin of Symmetry Unmastered Promos]] contain an unmastered, extended version of Bliss which has a longer outro. A mastered extended version can be found on each of the Bliss singles, including the CD in the Japanese [[Hyper Music (box set)|Hyper Music Box Set]].<br />
<br />
The unmastered version is actually only 4:36 long (just like the version on the singles). The length of 4:54 on the unmastered version is due to a long pause after the longer arpeggios are completely faded out.<br />
<br />
===Remixes===<br />
One Bliss remix, the "Spaced Out mix", was created by a user on the official boards with an alias of "Chocolate Muse". This differs a lot to the original version, featuring spaced out vocals, a robotic voice, and is generally very electronic.<br />

==Description==<br />
A "misleading" [[Showbiz (album)|Showbiz]]-era style intro of tinkly piano, which then proceeds into Origin of Symmetry era sound, riffs and distortion.<br />
<br />
==Matthew Bellamy's definition of New Born==<br />
<br />
"A feeling of not being connected to each other, but we are, and it's a feeling of the mind evolving from the body, but when that happens you just get this yearn to do something physical and feel something sensational, physical-ness-ness".<br />
<br />
"It's about a semi-fear of the evolution of technology,<br />
and how in reality it's destroying all humanity. <br />
My fear is that we can't control it because it's moving faster than we are,<br />
so the songs setting myself in a location in the future where the body is no longer important<br />
and everyone's plugged into a network. The opening line is 'link it to the world', <br />
so it's connecting yourself on a worldwide scale and being born into another reality,<br />
in a way it's on the same lines as the film The Matrix,<br />
but we weren't intending on copying their idea on technology and how it has evolved."<ref>Rock Sound - 2001</ref><br />
<br />
==Composition==<br />
New Born is an electronic/alternative rock song written in the key of E minor. It opens with broken piano chords (arpeggios), until a sustained chord is played, followed by fuzzy guitar which leads into the main part of the song. The song moves at a fairly fast tempo, with the intro playing at 147 bpm, before increasing to 153 bpm. Interestingly, the intro is played a lot faster live, while the rest of the song is generally played slower. Even more interestingly, both parts of the song have decreased in speed over time.<br />
<br />
Bellamy's vocal range spans from F♯3 to E5. The outro features sampled vocals.<br />
<br />
==Additional information==<br />
New Born began life as a piece played in sound check on the 1999 tour, while supporting the Foo Fighters, and the piano intro was written afterwards.<ref name="xfm20071007">{{cite/xfm20071007}}</ref> During the recording of the album in the [[David Bottrill]] sessions, the band experimented with using Bellamy's voice for the intro in place of a piano, but decided that this was too abstract and removed it post-recording.<ref name="xfm20071007"/> Bellamy attributed this to things sounding better when experiencing the effect of magic mushrooms, which Muse were using during said recording sessions.<ref name="xfm20071007"/><br />
<br />
On the single the ending (using sampled vocals) fades out gently, unlike the version found on the album [[Origin of Symmetry]].<br />

==Description==<br />
The title is a reference to a book called ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limits_to_Growth Limits to Growth]'' (1972) and the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Club_of_Rome Club of Rome] think-tank who would create a "map of the problematique" detailing the "global problematique" - a set of likely challenges the world might face in the near future. ''Limits to Growth'' correctly predicted the economic crisis of 2008.<ref name="uaclub"> <br />

}}</ref> In addition, the opening lyric, "fear and panic in the air" may be a reference to Mars, in that the red planet's two moons are named Phobos and Deimos, who were the Greek gods of Fear and Panic. Such a connection would fit in with numerous references to Mars in the album. Possibly one of the songs mentioned in the ''[[Daily Star (newspaper)|Daily Star]]'' feature "[[Matt Girls Good Grief (Daily Star article)|Matt Girls Good Grief]]" that were inspired by [[Gaia Polloni|Bellamy's girlfriend]] nagging him<ref><br />

It bears similarity with the music of [[Depeche Mode]],<ref>{{cite/ripitup20071203}}</ref> especially "[http://www.goear.com/listen.php?v=cb10331 Enjoy the Silence]", and is a rare track in musical terms as it does not use the dominant chord ever in the riff: C minor, E flat major, A flat major, F minor.<ref><br />

<br />
==Recording==<br />
"Map of the Problematique" originated from rehearsals before the recording of ''[[Black Holes and Revelations]]'', and was one of the later songs the band started work on.<ref name="ripitup20071203">{{cite/ripitup20071203}}</ref> It was originally played on synthesisers before being transfered to guitar, giving it a much darker sound,<ref name="eq200703">{{cite/eq200703}}</ref> although initially the intention was to keep it as keyboard-orientated as possible.<ref name="ripitup20071203"/> The rhythm section was recorded after the guitar tracks. This was different to anything the band had done before, according to Chris, "because the whole theme of the song was based more on the sound and creation of this sound".<ref name="ripitup20071203"/><br />
<br />
==Live==<br />
After the release ''[[Black Holes and Revelations (album)|Black Holes and Revelations]]'', "Map of the Problematique" appeared in almost all set lists, with the riff from "[[Riffs and jams#Maggie's Farm|Maggie's Farm]]" most often used as the outro. A live recording from [[London Wembley Stadium 2007 - 16th (gig)|Wembley Stadium]] was released initially as the B-side to the 2007 Wembley Souvenir "Map of the Problematique" single, with a second mix of the same recording appearing on ''[[H.A.A.R.P. (live)|H.A.A.R.P.]]'' in 2008.<br />
<br />
==Alternative versions==<br />
A mix of the song edited by [[Rich Costey]] featured as the lead track on the Muse.mu exclusive version of the [[Map of the Problematique (single)|"Map of the Problematique" single]]. A remix of the song by [[Does It Offend You, Yeah?]] was the B-side to the standard download single.<br />

{{lyrics<br />
|Fear and panic in the air<br />
I want to be free<br />
From desolation and despair<br />
And I feel like everything I sow<br />
Is being swept away<br />
Well I refuse to let you go<br />
<br />
I can't get it right<br />
Get it right<br />
Since I met you<br />
<br />
Loneliness be over<br />
When will this loneliness be over<br />
<br />
Life will flash before my eyes<br />
So scattered and lost<br />
I want to touch the other side<br />
And no one<br />
Thinks they are to blame<br />
Why can't we see<br />
That when we bleed we bleed the same<br />
<br />
I can't get it right<br />
Get it right<br />
Since I met you<br />

Loneliness be over<br />
When will this loneliness be over<br />
Loneliness be over<br />
When will this loneliness be over<br />

===Live alternatives===<br />
<br />
In very early live performances of the song, Bellamy replaced the first three lines of the second verse with the following:<br />
<br />
{{lyrics<br />
|See a future on the run<br />
Running away<br />
And our judgement has begun<br />
}}<br />
<br />
For performances of the song during the recent [[The Resistance (album)|Resistance]] Tour, Bellamy slightly adjusted the lyrics again. Instead of the second instance of<br />
<br />
{{lyrics<br />
|Since I met you<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Bellamy now sings<br />
<br />
{{lyrics<br />
|Since I lost you<br />
}}<br />
<br />
This is likely due to the fact that Matt and [[Gaia Polloni]] broke up during the tour.<br />

== Description ==<br />
Matt said, "This track is about a troubled relationship and is influenced by 1980s cheesy stadium rock! There is a guitar solo with a deliberate screaming harmonic. These types of harmonies have been banned from rock music for at least 18 years, possibly longer."<ref>iTunes LP - The Resistance</ref><br />
The second song on ''The Resistance'' with a guitar solo. The intro is a crossfade from [[United States of Eurasia (song)]], featuring the same jetfighter sound.<br />
The drums at the start bear a heavy resemblance to "Vienna" by [[Ultravox]]<br />
<br />
== Recording ==<br />
According to a video posted by Zane Lowe prior to the release of "The Resistance", Matt said that while recording this song in Milan, the music was so loud that a neighbour came over and began banging on the door. The banging can apparently be heard near the end of the song if the drums are isolated.<br />
<br />
In an interview, Dom said that while recording the snare drum in the field of sheep, the mics were close to a river so each time he plays the snare drum in the song, the river can be heard along with it.<br />

== Lyrics ==<br />
{{lyrics<br />
|Pure hearts stumble<br />
In my hands they crumble<br />
And fragile and stripped to the core<br />
I can't hurt you anymore<br />
<br />
Loved by numbers, <br />
You're losing life's wonder<br />
Touch like strangers; detached<br />
I can't feel you anymore<br />
<br />
There's sunshine trapped in our hearts<br />
It could rise again<br />
But I'm lost, and crushed, and cold, and confused<br />
With no guiding light left inside<br />
<br />
You were my guiding light<br />
<br />
When comfort and warmth can't be found<br />
I still reach for you<br />
But I'm lost, and crushed, and cold, and confused<br />
With no guiding light left inside<br />
<br />
You're my guiding light<br />
You're my guiding light<br />
When there's no guiding light left inside<br />
When there's no guiding light in our lives<br />

==Description== <br />
A piano arpeggios driven intro followed by a heavier guitar chorus.<br />
<br />
==Information==<br />
A staple of the live set prior to the [[Black Holes and Revelations (album)|Black Holes and Revelations]] tour and has been performed on guitar and piano. Has made occasional appearances throughout [[The Resistance]] tour.<br />
<br />
The band has continued playing this song once again during [[The 2nd Law (album) | The 2nd Law]] tour, along with Falling Down, but both were never played in the same gig. In the stadium leg, it is being played along with Unintended.<br />
<br />
According to Dom, "Sunburn is a song that happened in the studio about two years ago. I remember Matt playing around with a line on the piano and then on the guitar. Then the rest of us joined in. It's a song we still love playing live and always will. It's about moving into a new world, mentally or physically, realising it's not what you thought it was going to be. It was written at a time of change for us - we'd gone from painting and decorating and signing on, to flying first class to LA!"<ref>Q Magazine - January 2000</ref><br />
<br />
[[Matthew Bellamy]] declared that while the band were recording, this song was one of his favourites, but found it a bit weak at first: "I wanted to make it sound good. So that was when [[John Leckie]], our producer, had this idea to work out the guitar part on the piano. That was the first time I played piano in years it seems, and I had to spend two or three days just practicing Sunburn, which is a pretty simple part".<ref>[http://www.keyboardmag.com/article/innocence-absolution/jun-05/9880 Innocence and Absolution keboardmag.com 200506]</ref><br />
<br />
According to Bellamy, Sunburn was composed whilst in the studio.<br />
<br />
Sunburn was added to Radio 1's C playlist on, or shortly before, 31{{supo|st}} January 2000.<ref>[http://microcuts.net/uk/news/archives/01312000-sunburn_on_radio_1.php Microcuts.net 20000131]</ref><br />
<br />
As of 18{{supo|th}} July 2007, the piano and drums from the intro of Sunburn were used in the BBC's TV coverage of the Open golf championship<br />
<br />
==Interpretation==<br />
It is possibly about the band struggling money wise before they were signed. <br />
<br />
Lyrics could also suggest the possibility of it being about a stripper or prostitute, or a strip club.<br />
<br />
''Alternative meaning'': seems to be about a girl who was associated with the band before they made it, who Bellamy regrets having to leave behind, due to him seeing her as a star.<br />
<br />
===Alternate versions===<br />
An early demo recording of Sunburn features different lyrics and has an extended ending. The entire song is played on guitar, and is seemingly the original version, before [[John Leckie]] decided that a piano version would sound stronger. The lyrical focus of this early version appears to be the end of a relationship. Also a live preformance of Sunburn acoustic was broadcasted over the radio [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Te6-_3Wha4Q Watch]]<br />
<br />
Three remixes were created entitled "Sunburn (Timo Maas Sunstroke Mix)", "Sunburn (Timo Maas Breakz Again Remix)" and "Sunburn (Steven McCreery Remix)".<br />

<br />
==Description==<br />
Has a powering bass line. Quite bitter lyrics for an up-beat, up-tempo song. The riff is similar to [[Rage Against the Machine]]'s Snakecharmer. There is a slower, more relaxed version of this song called [[Hyper Chondriac Music (song)|Hyper Chondriac Music]].<br />
<br />
==Matthew Bellamy definition of Hyper Music==<br />
<br />
"This one really rocks out, it's really full-on but the lyrics are just plain negative, just pure anger and disregard for affection, the opposite of ‘’Bliss’’. It's actually linked to a book I read called ‘Hyper Space’, which is about how all the laws of nature and physics combine in the 10th Dimension in pure mathematics to form one main theme"<ref>Rock Sound - 2001</ref><br />
<br />
==Composition==<br />
Hyper Music is a metal/heavy rock song written in the key of D minor. It's very energetic, with a powering bassline and aggressive lyrics. It moves at a moderately fast tempo of 122 bpm.<br />
<br />
Bellamy's vocal range spans from G3 to D5. The song contains many A4's in the modal register, which is one of Bellamy's highest notes, making this arguably a very difficult vocal.<br />
<br />
Since it's return to live shows, the A4's during the verse are mostly sung in full voice by Bellamy, in contrast to older performances in which he sang this part in falsetto.<br />
<br />
==Additional information==<br />
Could be about the same person as in [[Hate This and I'll Love You (song)|Hate This and I'll Love You]] and [[Uno (song)|Uno]]. Someone who was associated with the band before they made it, who [[Matthew Bellamy|Matt]] had reason to dislike. (On a similar theme Sunburn seems to be about a girl who was associated with them, who in contrast Matt regrets having to leave behind, because he sees her as a star).<br />
<br />
Other readings of the song's lyrics have developed a hypothesis that this song is of an anti-religious nature. The lyrics could be a narrative from a messianic figure such as Jesus Christ. "Golden lies" could be those of priests, rabbis, etc. who "feed [God's] role" in the world. The lies not being that God/Jesus exists, after all he says "Who's returned from the dead? Who remains?" (somewhat rhetorical questions); the lies are more likely to be that he was here to save mankind, "I don't love you and I never did". The second verse deals with his reason for not wanting us, "You wanted more than I was worth" - a superhuman messiah that has evidently not saved us from our sins; "And you think I was scared" being a reference to Jesus' apparent fear of his upcoming crucifixion, in the Garden of Gethsemane (Mark 14, Luke 22: 43-44); "And you needed proof", something which our modern secular and scientific age begs for and which there is very little in any religion's defence. "Who really cares any more?" - it is over, God does not love us, he does not care, he has forsaken us and hence the suffering we see across the world.<br />
<br />
The book ''Hyper Space'' by Michio Kaku is a foundation inspiration for the entire album, especially the title and Hyper Music can be seen as a direct reference to that book. The book's various metaphysical discussions about religion lend more weight to the religious reading of the song's lyrics.<br />
<br />
Interestingly, a typo/mishearing of the lyrics is printed in the sleeve of [[Origin of Symmetry (album)|Origin of Symmetry]]. The line, "Your golden lies feed my role," is printed as "Your golden skies feed my role". This is most likely due to early live versions of the song where Matt sings "skies" instead of "lies".<br />
<br />
==Lyrics==<br />
{{lyrics<br />
|[Guitar Solo Open]<br />
<br />
Your golden lies feed my role<br />
In this forgotten space race under my control<br />
Who’s returned from the dead?<br />
Who remains (just to spit it in your face?)<br />

== Description ==<br />
Possibly about a bad relationship. An early Muse song originally recorded on the [[Newton Abbot demo (demo) | Newton Abbot demo]]. The song contains a section in the unusual time signature of 5/4.<br />
<br />
== Additional information ==<br />
A live favourite in the ''[[Showbiz (album) | Showbiz]]'' tours and played occasionally in 2001. The outro riff of Agitated is sometimes played live after "[[Stockholm Syndrome (song) | Stockholm Syndrome]]".<br />
<br />
After 12 years absent from setlists, the song made a comeback in 2013, beginning when it was played in [[Helsinki Olympiastadion 2013 (gig) | Helsinki]] on the final show of the stadium tour. It continued to be played at subsequent shows in Asia and North America, usually following Stockholm Syndrome.<br />
<br />
The released recording of the song was mastered at the Abbey Road studios in London.<ref>[[Uno (single)#AU CD | Uno AU CD]] notes</ref><br />

Bears a striking resemblance to Mission of Burma's 'Laugh the World Away', from the Album 'Vs.' (released 1982).<br />
<br />
At 2:00 someone, possibly [[Matthew Bellamy]], says something like "Emo" or "Hello".<br />
<br />
The outro of the song (1:53 to 2:17) is written and played in 5/4 timing.<br />

==Description==<br />
Includes a romantic piano section. This romantic piano section takes influences from, among other composers, [[Sergei Rachmaninov]]. Sweeping arpeggios and dramatic chords are a staple of Rachmaninov's music.<br />
<br />
==Additional information:==<br />
[[Matthew Bellamy]] declared about that song: "It's about hope, about trying to find the strength to get through any given situation, I was trying to find a classical type of piano style that would be heavy and work with bass and drums. It had that sort of mechanical paradiddle thing all the way through, and then it breaks down into this kind of romantic, flowing weird bit in the middle".<br />
<br />
In another interview matt said: "One of my favourite songs is 'Butterflies and Hurricanes' because it's accepting that things are all over but it's going fuckin' go for it!', d'yaknowworimean? there's a few tracks that are trying to find that strength, the raw energy that keeps you going through that jadedness as opposed to just resigning"<ref name="NME20130913"><br />

Parts of the song existed at least as early as 2000.<ref> <br />

}}</ref> Bellamy had suggested a song featuring the band and an orchestra over a "constant paradiddle" to Dom, but Butterflies & Hurricanes really took shape when Matt spent a few hours fiddling around on Steinway in a hotel they were staying in:<br />
"I was just alone in this piano room for hours and hours and hours... I found myself playing this paradiddle, that goes [imitates paradiddle] like that over and over again. And I started playing that on just two notes, constantly playing it, over and over again until I got to a point where extra notes were sort of finding their way in there, d'you know what I mean? And it ended up building up to the point where I was playing five-note chords with each hand and playing these massive chords on the piano and it was sounding really fucking heavy, d'you know what I mean? And a chord structure started to come out of that, and I was thinking, "This could be something"".<br />
<br />
The single version features guitar rather than piano aside from the piano interlude, and excludes a voice saying "oh" at 1:21. The radio edit takes the single version and omits the piano interlude and vocal harmonies entirely. The single version features slightly heightened vocal harmonies compared to the album recording.<br />
<br />
The song was used as the main theme for the BBC Sports Personality of The Year 2007, with the BBC Orchestra playing parts of the song as well and for a commercial on Austria's TV channel ORF 1. It has also been used as interludes between different articles and as closing credits on ''Ski Sunday''.<br />
<br />
Featured as the theme song for a racing game called Need For Speed: Most Wanted.<br />
<br />
== Live ==<br />
It is played live like the single version (with guitar). Occasionally the band will perform an 'Extended' version of the song, whereby the heavy section just before the piano solo is played repeatedly, often including a mini-solo from Bellamy. It was performed on the Wembley DVD, and the sixteenth note hi-hat beat leading up to the piano section was moved onto the snare drum instead.<br />
<br />
== Covers ==<br />
Butterflies & Hurricanes was covered by [[William Joseph]] on his 2004 album "Within". The cover is an instrumental, and at 3:43 long does not include the piano mid section.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
At 4:01 on the Absolution version of Butterflies & Hurricanes, If you listen closely, Matt can be heard getting off the piano stool he sat on to record the solo.<br />

==Description==<br />
An instrumental cover of the noise rock [[Lightning Bolt]] song. First played at the [[London Earls Court Exhibition Centre 2004 - 19th (gig)|Earls Court Exhibition Centre]] 2004, December 19th, the riff was then played the next day at the same venue where it was swiftly followed by [[Apocalypse Please (song)|Apocalypse Please]]. It was also played on the following day at the same venue and a few more times during the 2005 North America Tour, as the opener track or before the last song of the set, [[Stockholm Syndrome (song)|Stockholm Syndrome]]. In 2013, Dracula Mountain was played again partially.<br />
<br />
The most significant difference between Muse's live cover and the Lightning Bolt original was the notably slower tempo that Muse played it.<br />

==Description==<br />
A song lamenting dying crops and abused nature, inspired by Matt's concerns of industrial greed and business monopolies. 'Explorers' is drenched in the sense of not belonging in your own world. Nearly called 'Alien Explorers,' Matt claimed, but "not in the way of aliens from outer space but in the way of feeling like an alien on your own planet. It's about the intense desire to grow and expand - at some point nature will become the minority. I'm not sure if I'm really coming from an environmental thing - [Explorers] is where I'm singing about my views on property rights. The idea that corporations can own vast tracts of foreign countries. I'm not sure if the deal went through but, I think it was in Paraguay or Uraguay, the Bush family bought something like a million acres of land, which underneath contains the biggest natural water reservoir in South America. At some point there has to be someone who says: 'That's not right.' Can BP buy Nigeria? At the moment they can. They could buy it and they kick all the natives out, shoot them down or whatever and just say, 'We own this now.'"<ref>http://www.muselive.com/index.php?m=single&id=6747</ref>.<br />
<br />
According to Jeuxactu, a French magazine, Matt's vocals evoke similar feelings to the song Blackout. <ref>http://www.muselive.com/forums.php?m=posts&q=52987&d=0</ref><br />
<br />
The intro bears a very strong resemblance to [[Sergei Rachmaninov|Rachmaninov's]] Piano Concerto No.2 Op.18 at 18:40. It is essentially the motif Rachmaninov wrote changed from minor to major.<br />
<br />
In the chorus, you can hear similar vocals to Invincible.<br />
<br />
During live performances there is a drum & bass jam called Monty Jam (Montpeller jam) which is similar to Nishe.<br />
<br />
== Information ==<br />
By error of Bellamy, Howard, Wolstenholme or Kirk, the name of the song was leaked by a photo on Twitter, until it was deleted.<br />

|Once I hoped<br />
To seek the new and unknown<br />
This planet's overrun<br />
There's nothing left for you or for me<br />
Don't give in<br />
We can walk through the fields<br />
And feeling nature's glow<br />
But all the land is owned<br />
There's none left for you or for me<br />
Who will win?<br />
‘Cause I concede<br />
<br />
Free me<br />
Free me<br />
Free me from this world<br />
I don't belong here<br />
It was a mistake imprisoning my soul<br />
Can you free me<br />
Free me from this world<br />
<br />
A world lush and blue<br />
With rivers running wild<br />
They'll be re-routed south<br />
With none left for you or for me<br />
Don't give in<br />
Hear the engines roar<br />
And save our crops from drought<br />
But when the black gold's in doubt<br />
There's none left for you or me<br />
Fuse helium-3, our last hope<br />
<br />
Free me<br />
Free me<br />
Free me from this world<br />
We don't belong here<br />
It was a mistake imprisoning our souls<br />
Can you free me<br />
And free me from this world?<br />

Free me<br />
I’ll free you<br />
Free us from this world<br />
We don't belong here<br />
It was a mistake imprisoning our souls<br />
Can you free me<br />
And free me from this world?<br />
<br />
Running around in circles feeling caged by endless rules<br />
Can you free me<br />
Free me from this world?<br />

Shh, go to sleep<br />

== Description ==<br />
Matt said, "This track is about a troubled relationship and is influenced by 1980s cheesy stadium rock! There is a guitar solo with a deliberate screaming harmonic. These types of harmonies have been banned from rock music for at least 18 years, possibly longer."<ref>iTunes LP - The Resistance</ref><br />
The second song on ''The Resistance'' with a guitar solo. The intro is a crossfade from [[United States of Eurasia (song)]], featuring the same jetfighter sound.<br />
The drums at the start bear a heavy resemblance to "Vienna" by [[Ultravox]]<br />
<br />
== Recording ==<br />
According to a video posted by Zane Lowe prior to the release of "The Resistance", Matt said that while recording this song in Milan, the music was so loud that a neighbour came over and began banging on the door. The banging can apparently be heard near the end of the song if the drums are isolated.<br />
<br />
In an interview, Dom said that while recording the snare drum in the field of sheep, the mics were close to a river so each time he plays the snare drum in the song, the river can be heard along with it.<br />
<br />
== Lyrics ==<br />
{{lyrics<br />
|Pure hearts stumble<br />
In my hands they crumble<br />
And fragile and stripped to the core<br />
I can't hurt you anymore<br />
<br />
Loved by numbers, <br />
You're losing life's wonder<br />
Touch like strangers; detached<br />
I can't feel you anymore<br />
<br />
There's sunshine trapped in our hearts<br />
It could rise again<br />
But I'm lost, and crushed, and cold, and confused<br />
With no guiding light left inside<br />
<br />
You were my guiding light<br />
<br />
When comfort and warmth can't be found<br />
I still reach for you<br />
But I'm lost, and crushed, and cold, and confused<br />
With no guiding light left inside<br />
<br />
You're my guiding light<br />
You're my guiding light<br />
When there's no guiding light left inside<br />
When there's no guiding light in our lives<br />

== Description ==<br />
House of the Rising Sun is an American folk song, thought to be written by Georgia Turner and Bert Martin. This song tells of hard times in New Orleans. The most well known version was recorded by Eric Burdon and the Animals in 1964.<br />
<br />
== Additional information ==<br />
The song was never played live, and never released on any of Muse's singles - only an NME cover album. This song has been covered by many huge artists, including Tommy Emmanuel, The White Stripes, The Eagles, Bob Dylan, The Animals, and coincidentally Nina Simone (the same jazz artist who made [[Feeling Good (song) | Feeling Good]] famous). It was also the first song Tony Blair learned to play on guitar.<br />
<br />
This song is featured as one of the 20 Best of War Child, it is in an album by them, containing many other artists.<br />
<br />
An instrumental excerpt from the song was played during the 2006 tour, and again in the 2010 tour. This instrumental is not played in the same fashion as Muse's recorded rendition, but instead in one similar to The Animals' version<!-- FIXME: Hey guyz, can someone add the live instrumental to the HotRS tab page? -- —compare [[House of the Rising Sun (tablature) | the Muse rendition's tablature]] with the instrumental's tablature-->.<br />

{{lyrics<br />
|There is a house down in New Orleans<br />
They call the Risin’ Sun<br />
And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy<br />
And me, oh god, I’m a-one<br />
<br />
My mother was a tailor<br />
She sewed these new blue jeans<br />
My sweetheart was a gambler, lord<br />
Down in New Orleans<br />
<br />
Now the only thing a gambler needs<br />
Is a suitcase and a trunk<br />
And the only time he’s satisfied<br />
Is when he’s on a drunk<br />
<br />
He fills his glasses up to the brim<br />
And he’ll pass the cards around<br />
And the only pleasure he gets out of life<br />
Is ramblin’ from town to town<br />
<br />
Oh tell my baby sister<br />
Not to do what I have done<br />
But shun that house in New Orleans<br />
They call the Risin’ Sun<br />
<br />
Well, it’s one foot on the platform<br />
And the other foot on the train<br />
I’m goin’ back to new Orleans<br />
To wear that ball and chain<br />
<br />
I’m a-goin’ back to New Orleans<br />
My race is almost run<br />
I’m goin’ back to end my life<br />
Down in the risin’ sun<br />
<br />
There is a house in New Orleans<br />
They call the risin’ sun<br />
It’s been the ruin of many poor boy<br />

== Description ==<br />
According to Dom and Matt initially, the song was going to be a quiet song and sweet with a gradual rise due Rich Costey ideas and that "There was something truly epic present when it was really quiet at the beginning" and then "It was changed just before recording, originally it was just a strange and quiet riff" but then it was reworked with a huge and monstrous chorus riff and end that gives it a really heavy effect.<ref name="RockMagSeptember2003"><br />

<br />
While this song was written on piano by [[Matthew Bellamy]], it was recorded on both guitar and synths. Matt then mixed both of the sounds together. The main riff was inspired by [[System of a Down]].<ref>Total Guitar - Matt Bellamy tells us the amazing story behind Absolution. September/2003]</ref> Standard set closer throughout the Absolution tour and sometimes during the Black Holes and Revelations tour. Usually multiple riffs are played after the song. An example of this is the L.A Staples Centre Gig in which more than eight riffs were played after Stockholm Syndrome.<br />
<br />
[[Dominic Howard|Dom]] explains that: 'Stockholm Syndrome', concerns a medical complaint whereby someone falls in love with the person that has kidnapped them; "In 1973 some bank robbers went to rob a bank and ended up taking six people hostage and it went on Tv, But the hostages ended up defending the captives in cout and one of the hostages got married to one of the captors"<ref name="NME20130913"><br />

<br />
== Additional information ==<br />
The syndrome is named after the Norrmalmstorg robbery of Kreditbanken at Norrmalmstorg, Stockholm in which the bank robbers held bank employees hostage from August 23 to August 28, 1973. In this case, the victims became emotionally attached to, and even defended, their captors after they were freed from their six-day ordeal. The term was coined by the criminologist and psychologist Nils Bejerot, who assisted the police during the robbery, and referred to the syndrome in a news broadcast. The majority of the hostages were okay, but one of them committed suicide and another changed his name to that of one of his captors and disappeared.<br />
<br />
This song was first written by Matt on the piano, before being played on the guitar.<br />
<br />
The song was added to [[Guitar Hero 3]] on 8th May 2008 along with [[Supermassive Black Hole (song) | Supermassive Black Hole]] and [[Exo-Politics (song) | Exo-Politics]] as part of a Muse track pack.<br />
<br />
A cover of this song is featured on [[the String Quartet Tribute]] to Muse.<br />
<br />
Mike Portnoy of [[Dream Theater]] covered the intro on his drumming focused ‘‘In Constant Motion‘‘ DVD {{YT |XccQ7AYFRWM}}<br />

When the chorus is played backwards, it sounds something like "You can't see me, we sneak off. I lost to love. Please ... save the night wind and high above, I lost to love. Sing, save". Allegedly.<br />

|I won't stand in your way<br />

I won't hold you back<br />
Let your anger rise<br />

==Description==<br />
Lilting waltz. Blackout talks about life being too good to last. Matt stated that the song is from the point of view of someone facing their end, reviewing the positive points of their life.<ref>Absolution EPK</ref><br />
<br />
==Additional information==<br />
[[Matthew Bellamy|Bellamy]] said that track talks about life being too short and commented: "I used a mandolin on Blackout. I think it was written with that in mind. I spent a fair bit of time in Italy last summer and I think that track was influenced by some of the sounds I heard there - a combination of some of the folk music and some opera. The mandolin is a very traditional instrument there and it seemed like the right thing to go on that song".<br />
<br />
He has cited the likes of [[Frank Sinatra]] as another influence for the song.<br />
<br />
When played live, the string section is played either by Chris, or by a chap named "Barry", as mentioned in this [http://www.virtualfestivals.com/artists/article.cfm?articleid=817 Virtual Festivals review] of the [[Bournemouth International Centre 2003 (gig)|Bournemouth 2003 gig]].<br />
<br />
When played live at [[London Wembley Stadium (venue)|Wembley Stadium]], the performance was accompanied by two acrobats suspended by Helium balloons (named heliospheres on the setlist) floating out above the standing audience, moving as the song was played.<br />
<br />
When played live at [[Rome Stadio Olimpico 2013 (gig)|Stadio Olimpico, Rome]], Matt sang "Ave Maria" during the end of the song.<br />
<br />
===Alternate versions===<br />
One remix, entitled The Awakening Mix, made by Mark "DJ Distomak" Newby was created. It is available in the [[Muselive.com]] Share Your Stuff forum. This mix features a sped up track with additional percussion taken from blink-182's "I Miss You".<br />
<br />
The orchestral part of the Absolution track was used as background music for the credits on the [[H.A.A.R.P. (live)|HAARP DVD]].<br />

==Description==<br />
A "misleading" [[Showbiz (album)|Showbiz]]-era style intro of tinkly piano, which then proceeds into Origin of Symmetry era sound, riffs and distortion.<br />
<br />
==Matthew Bellamy's definition of New Born==<br />
<br />
"A feeling of not being connected to each other, but we are, and it's a feeling of the mind evolving from the body, but when that happens you just get this yearn to do something physical and feel something sensational, physical-ness-ness".<br />
<br />
"It's about a semi-fear of the evolution of technology,<br />
and how in reality it's destroying all humanity. <br />
My fear is that we can't control it because it's moving faster than we are,<br />
so the songs setting myself in a location in the future where the body is no longer important<br />
and everyone's plugged into a network. The opening line is 'link it to the world', <br />
so it's connecting yourself on a worldwide scale and being born into another reality,<br />
in a way it's on the same lines as the film The Matrix,<br />
but we weren't intending on copying their idea on technology and how it has evolved."<ref>Rock Sound - 2001</ref><br />
<br />
==Composition==<br />
New Born is an electronic/alternative rock song written in the key of E minor. It opens with broken piano chords (arpeggios), until a sustained chord is played, followed by fuzzy guitar which leads into the main part of the song. The song moves at a fairly fast tempo, with the intro playing at 147 bpm, before increasing to 153 bpm. Interestingly, the intro is played a lot faster live, while the rest of the song is generally played slower. Even more interestingly, both parts of the song have decreased in speed over time.<br />
<br />
Bellamy's vocal range spans from F♯3 to E5. The outro features sampled vocals.<br />
<br />
==Additional information==<br />
New Born began life as a piece played in sound check on the 1999 tour, while supporting the Foo Fighters, and the piano intro was written afterwards.<ref name="xfm20071007">{{cite/xfm20071007}}</ref> During the recording of the album in the [[David Bottrill]] sessions, the band experimented with using Bellamy's voice for the intro in place of a piano, but decided that this was too abstract and removed it post-recording.<ref name="xfm20071007"/> Bellamy attributed this to things sounding better when experiencing the effect of magic mushrooms, which Muse were using during said recording sessions.<ref name="xfm20071007"/><br />
<br />
On the single the ending (using sampled vocals) fades out gently, unlike the version found on the album [[Origin of Symmetry]].<br />

==Description==<br />
The title is a reference to a book called ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limits_to_Growth Limits to Growth]'' (1972) and the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Club_of_Rome Club of Rome] think-tank who would create a "map of the problematique" detailing the "global problematique" - a set of likely challenges the world might face in the near future. ''Limits to Growth'' correctly predicted the economic crisis of 2008.<ref name="uaclub"> <br />

}}</ref> In addition, the opening lyric, "fear and panic in the air" may be a reference to Mars, in that the red planet's two moons are named Phobos and Deimos, who were the Greek gods of Fear and Panic. Such a connection would fit in with numerous references to Mars in the album. Possibly one of the songs mentioned in the ''[[Daily Star (newspaper)|Daily Star]]'' feature "[[Matt Girls Good Grief (Daily Star article)|Matt Girls Good Grief]]" that were inspired by [[Gaia Polloni|Bellamy's girlfriend]] nagging him<ref><br />

<br />
==Recording==<br />
"Map of the Problematique" originated from rehearsals before the recording of ''[[Black Holes and Revelations]]'', and was one of the later songs the band started work on.<ref name="ripitup20071203">{{cite/ripitup20071203}}</ref> It was originally played on synthesisers before being transfered to guitar, giving it a much darker sound,<ref name="eq200703">{{cite/eq200703}}</ref> although initially the intention was to keep it as keyboard-orientated as possible.<ref name="ripitup20071203"/> The rhythm section was recorded after the guitar tracks. This was different to anything the band had done before, according to Chris, "because the whole theme of the song was based more on the sound and creation of this sound".<ref name="ripitup20071203"/><br />
<br />
==Live==<br />
After the release ''[[Black Holes and Revelations (album)|Black Holes and Revelations]]'', "Map of the Problematique" appeared in almost all set lists, with the riff from "[[Riffs and jams#Maggie's Farm|Maggie's Farm]]" most often used as the outro. A live recording from [[London Wembley Stadium 2007 - 16th (gig)|Wembley Stadium]] was released initially as the B-side to the 2007 Wembley Souvenir "Map of the Problematique" single, with a second mix of the same recording appearing on ''[[H.A.A.R.P. (live)|H.A.A.R.P.]]'' in 2008.<br />
<br />
==Alternative versions==<br />
A mix of the song edited by [[Rich Costey]] featured as the lead track on the Muse.mu exclusive version of the [[Map of the Problematique (single)|"Map of the Problematique" single]]. A remix of the song by [[Does It Offend You, Yeah?]] was the B-side to the standard download single.<br />
<br />
==Lyrics==<br />
{{lyrics<br />
|Fear and panic in the air<br />
I want to be free<br />
From desolation and despair<br />
And I feel like everything I sow<br />
Is being swept away<br />
Well I refuse to let you go<br />
<br />
I can't get it right<br />
Get it right<br />
Since I met you<br />
<br />
Loneliness be over<br />
When will this loneliness be over<br />
<br />
Life will flash before my eyes<br />
So scattered and lost<br />
I want to touch the other side<br />
And no one<br />
Thinks they are to blame<br />
Why can't we see<br />
That when we bleed we bleed the same<br />
<br />
I can't get it right<br />
Get it right<br />
Since I met you<br />
<br />
Loneliness be over<br />
When will this loneliness be over<br />
Loneliness be over<br />
When will this loneliness be over<br />
}}<br />
<br />
===Live alternatives===<br />
<br />
In very early live performances of the song, Bellamy replaced the first three lines of the second verse with the following:<br />
<br />
{{lyrics<br />
|See a future on the run<br />
Running away<br />
And our judgement has begun<br />
}}<br />
<br />
For performances of the song during the recent [[The Resistance (album)|Resistance]] Tour, Bellamy slightly adjusted the lyrics again. Instead of the second instance of<br />
<br />
{{lyrics<br />
|Since I met you<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Bellamy now sings<br />
<br />
{{lyrics<br />
|Since I lost you<br />
}}<br />
<br />
This is likely due to the fact that Matt and [[Gaia Polloni]] broke up during the tour.<br />

==Description==<br />
A "misleading" [[Showbiz (album)|Showbiz]]-era style intro of tinkly piano, which then proceeds into Origin of Symmetry era sound, riffs and distortion.<br />
<br />
==Matthew Bellamy's definition of New Born==<br />
<br />
"A feeling of not being connected to each other, but we are, and it's a feeling of the mind evolving from the body, but when that happens you just get this yearn to do something physical and feel something sensational, physical-ness-ness".<br />
<br />
"It's about a semi-fear of the evolution of technology,<br />
and how in reality it's destroying all humanity. <br />
My fear is that we can't control it because it's moving faster than we are,<br />
so the songs setting myself in a location in the future where the body is no longer important<br />
and everyone's plugged into a network. The opening line is 'link it to the world', <br />
so it's connecting yourself on a worldwide scale and being born into another reality,<br />
in a way it's on the same lines as the film The Matrix,<br />
but we weren't intending on copying their idea on technology and how it has evolved."<ref>Rock Sound - 2001</ref><br />
<br />
==Composition==<br />
New Born is an electronic/alternative rock song written in the key of E minor. It opens with broken piano chords (arpeggios), until a sustained chord is played, followed by fuzzy guitar which leads into the main part of the song. The song moves at a fairly fast tempo, with the intro playing at 147 bpm, before increasing to 153 bpm. Interestingly, the intro is played a lot faster live, while the rest of the song is generally played slower. Even more interestingly, both parts of the song have decreased in speed over time.<br />
<br />
Bellamy's vocal range spans from F♯3 to E5. The outro features sampled vocals.<br />
<br />
==Additional information==<br />
New Born began life as a piece played in sound check on the 1999 tour, while supporting the Foo Fighters, and the piano intro was written afterwards.<ref name="xfm20071007">{{cite/xfm20071007}}</ref> During the recording of the album in the [[David Bottrill]] sessions, the band experimented with using Bellamy's voice for the intro in place of a piano, but decided that this was too abstract and removed it post-recording.<ref name="xfm20071007"/> Bellamy attributed this to things sounding better when experiencing the effect of magic mushrooms, which Muse were using during said recording sessions.<ref name="xfm20071007"/><br />
<br />
On the single the ending (using sampled vocals) fades out gently, unlike the version found on the album [[Origin of Symmetry]].<br />

<br />
==Description==<br />
Live song that was played towards the end of each set. Standard set closer between the releases of [[Origin of Symmetry (album)|Origin of Symmetry]] and [[Absolution (album)|Absolution]]. During some live performances, the band played an Extended version in which the main riff is repeated and mixed with some improvisation. This can be seen in the Hullabaloo DVD. Made occasional appearances during the Black Holes and Revelations Tour and The Resistance Tour. Bellamy occasionally goes up an octave for the first half of the final chorus, an example being at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Xq1Ay5_qHs Live 8 2005].<br />
<br />
==Matthew Bellamy's definition of Bliss==<br />
<br />
"This is probably the most positive track, the most truly embracing song. It's almost in awe of the situation I've been given, because it's a state of mind were you give out everything you have without any need for return. It's also a song aimed towards some-one's youth, someone who hasn't been exposed to stuff yet"<ref>Rock Sound - 2001</ref><br />
<br />
==Composition==<br />
Bliss is an electronic rock song that moves at a fast tempo of 129 bpm. The song begins and ends with piano arpeggios, but the majority of the song is synth-driven. Bellamy's vocal range spans from F3 to E5, except for live performances, where he sometimes hits G5 in the last chorus. The song is mostly written in the key of C minor, shifting to C major for the chorus.<br />
<br />
==Additional information==<br />
Bliss is the song that represents the best state of mind you can have. It’s a state of mind where you give out everything you have without any need for return. It's also a song aimed towards someone’s youth, someone who hasn’t been exposed to stuff yet. However it should be a positive song, the lyrics give the impression that you're envy on a person and you want to be just like him/her because s/he looks perfect to you and you're not.<br />
<br />
[[Matt Bellamy]] has stated that Bliss is his favorite song "because it's got all these 80s arpeggios and keyboards on it which remind me of some music I heard on some children’s music programme when I was five. I think I ripped it off that. And that reminds me of when I was a bit simpler, a bit more of a pleasant state."<ref>{{cite web | publisher=IMWR | title=inmuseworld.net - Bliss Lyrics and information | url=http://http://www.inmuseworld.net/revelations/songs.php?id=302&title=Bliss}}</ref> The "children's music programme" is actually the first [[Top Gear]] game for the SNES.<br />
<br />
Received its first airing at the Bizarre Festival in Germany in 2000, without guitars, mostly bass led and featuring reversed lyrics and a somewhat erratic keyboard, sounding similar to the music of an old arcade game. A second version featuring guitars debuted early 2001, though the riff is different to the album version.<br />
<br />
The album version was recorded in the shroomed-up Dave Bottrill sessions.<br />
<br />
Sometimes when the song is sung live, Bellamy begins the final chorus with a wailing falsetto and continues it into the first line, before singing the final two lines in the chorus in his normal register.<br />
<br />
===Alternate versions===<br />
The [[Origin of Symmetry (album)#Unmastered press preview, unmastered UK CD-R|Origin of Symmetry Unmastered Promos]] contain an unmastered, extended version of Bliss which has a longer outro. A mastered extended version can be found on each of the Bliss singles, including the CD in the Japanese [[Hyper Music (box set)|Hyper Music Box Set]].<br />
<br />
The unmastered version is actually only 4:36 long (just like the version on the singles). The length of 4:54 on the unmastered version is due to a long pause after the longer arpeggios are completely faded out.<br />
<br />
===Remixes===<br />
One Bliss remix, the "Spaced Out mix", was created by a user on the official boards with an alias of "Chocolate Muse". This differs a lot to the original version, featuring spaced out vocals, a robotic voice, and is generally very electronic.<br />

==Description==<br />
The most popular [[Muse]] cover, and covered because of Matt's ex-girlfriend's liking of the song.<ref name="xfmdoc">{{cite/xfm20071007}}</ref> The song was used by Nescafé for their advertisement but without the band's permission. The band denied them the use of the song because they didn't believe in having their music used to advertise supermarket products. Nescafé withdrew that version for a different version. Muse were subsequently paid £500,000 of settlement money, which they donated to Oxfam.<ref name="xfmdoc"/><br />
<br />
In an interview with Rocksound Magazine, Bellamy stated that "our interpretation is quite different from the original, but nowhere near as good. I chose it because it’s got brilliant lyrics, and it fits in with some of the other songs on the album. It’s about becoming you – getting rid of your past and thinking about leading a new life. I just want people to know that underlying what I do is something positive, and that I’m not here to kill myself or to destroy the situation we live in.”<ref>Rock Sound Spain 31/07/01</ref><br />
<br />
In Taratata part 2,the host tells Matt that he has heard that Matt's mother likes the song. Bellamy replies with "loves the song."<br />
<br />
"Feeling Good" was written by Anthony Newley and Leslie Bricusse for the musical "The Roar of the Greasepaint - The Smell of the Crowd", though was made famous when performed by the legendary jazz artist [[Nina Simone]].<br />
<br />
==Matthew Bellamy definition of Feeling Good==<br />
<br />
"The music is very dark and moody but as plain text the lyrics are just a cheesy, happy poem, just so amazingly positive, and It can make you feel like there's really something worth fighting for. It is depressing but it’s almost like humanity singing about how good things could be"<ref>Rock Sound - 2001</ref><br />
<br />
==Composition==<br />
Feeling Good is written in the key of G minor. It moves in 12/8 time at a slow tempo of 72 bpm.<br />
<br />
Bellamy's vocal range spans from F3 to F5. The song contains his highest note in the modal register, B♭4, which is shared with [[Unnatural Selection (song)|Unnatural Selection]], [[Futurism (song)|Futurism]], [[Madness (song)|Madness]], [[Survival (song)|Survival]] and [[Big Freeze (song)|Big Freeze]].<br />
<br />
==Additional information==<br />
This cover was commonly played live between 2000 and 2003, but wasn't played between [[Reykjavík Laugardalshöll 2003 (gig)|Laugardalshöll 2003]] and [[Neuhausen ob Eck Southside Festival 2006 (gig)|Southside Festival 2006]]. It was once again played regularly live from 2006 onwards.<br />
<br />
This song was played on Spanish TVE:Radio3 as a live recording, in which, after the second verse, Matt Bellamy started swearing in time with the music for two lines; they were told not to swear which angered Muse as they never swore in their music until then, so they swore extensively. The video for this can be found [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGnw_WtQflY here]. Muse have been banned from Radio 3 ever since. During the performance, he sang "Fucking, fucking, fucking, fucking hell! Fucking, fucking little, fucking, fucking fuckers, yeah!".<br />
<br />
In live performances, Matt sings the third verse through a megaphone.<br />
<br />
This song was used during the credits of an episode of the mini series Luther.<br />
<br />
==Alternative versions==<br />
A radio edit of "Feeling Good" with clean vocals on the third verse and can be found on the second [[Hyper Music/Feeling Good (single)#Promo|UK "Hyper Music/Feeling Good" promo CD]] (catalogue number 'MUSE 19'). An isolation of the drum, bass and keyboard feeds from the H.A.A.R.P. show features in the audio set-up section of the ''[[H.A.A.R.P. (live)|H.A.A.R.P.]]'' DVD. It was first played live as a guitar version in the [[BBC Studios 1999 (gig)|BBC session in 1999]] (also known as "diferent take session").<br />

== Description ==<br />
'Liquid State' is one of two songs on the album written by Chris about his struggle with alcoholism, the other being 'Save Me'. Chris said the song was 'written about the person you become when you're intoxicated and how the two of them are having this fight inside of you and it tears you apart'.<br />
<br />
According to some of the latest interviews, this song (Liquid State) is the heaviest song on the entire album, and has been compared to Queens of the Stone Age. It bears resemblance to the Queens of the Stone Age song "You Think I Ain't Worth a Dollar, But I Feel Like a Millionaire".<br />
<br />
== Information ==<br />
The song's name was unknown until the 13th July 2012, the day that Muse tweeted the same picture with Dom and the leaked names, but with the working titles replaced by the new album tracking list. It's unknown if this song is linked with one of the others in the board, in the old picture, or if it's another one.<br />
<br />
The song was also featured in one of the trailers for a video game, Crysis 3, released on February 7th, 2013<br />

==Description==<br />
Has a powering bass line. Quite bitter lyrics for an up-beat, up-tempo song. The riff is similar to [[Rage Against the Machine]]'s Snakecharmer. There is a slower, more relaxed version of this song called [[Hyper Chondriac Music (song)|Hyper Chondriac Music]].<br />
<br />
==Matthew Bellamy definition of Hyper Music==<br />
<br />
"This one really rocks out, it's really full-on but the lyrics are just plain negative, just pure anger and disregard for affection, the opposite of ‘’Bliss’’. It's actually linked to a book I read called ‘Hyper Space’, which is about how all the laws of nature and physics combine in the 10th Dimension in pure mathematics to form one main theme"<ref>Rock Sound - 2001</ref><br />
<br />
==Composition==<br />
Hyper Music is a metal/heavy rock song written in the key of D minor. It's very energetic, with a powering bassline and aggressive lyrics. It moves at a moderately fast tempo of 122 bpm.<br />
<br />
Bellamy's vocal range spans from G3 to D5. The song contains many A4's in the modal register, which is one of Bellamy's highest notes, making this arguably a very difficult vocal.<br />
<br />
Since it's return to live shows, the A4's during the verse are mostly sung in full voice by Bellamy, in contrast to older performances in which he sang this part in falsetto.<br />
<br />
==Additional information==<br />
Could be about the same person as in [[Hate This and I'll Love You (song)|Hate This and I'll Love You]] and [[Uno (song)|Uno]]. Someone who was associated with the band before they made it, who [[Matthew Bellamy|Matt]] had reason to dislike. (On a similar theme Sunburn seems to be about a girl who was associated with them, who in contrast Matt regrets having to leave behind, because he sees her as a star).<br />
<br />
Other readings of the song's lyrics have developed a hypothesis that this song is of an anti-religious nature. The lyrics could be a narrative from a messianic figure such as Jesus Christ. "Golden lies" could be those of priests, rabbis, etc. who "feed [God's] role" in the world. The lies not being that God/Jesus exists, after all he says "Who's returned from the dead? Who remains?" (somewhat rhetorical questions); the lies are more likely to be that he was here to save mankind, "I don't love you and I never did". The second verse deals with his reason for not wanting us, "You wanted more than I was worth" - a superhuman messiah that has evidently not saved us from our sins; "And you think I was scared" being a reference to Jesus' apparent fear of his upcoming crucifixion, in the Garden of Gethsemane (Mark 14, Luke 22: 43-44); "And you needed proof", something which our modern secular and scientific age begs for and which there is very little in any religion's defence. "Who really cares any more?" - it is over, God does not love us, he does not care, he has forsaken us and hence the suffering we see across the world.<br />
<br />
The book ''Hyper Space'' by Michio Kaku is a foundation inspiration for the entire album, especially the title and Hyper Music can be seen as a direct reference to that book. The book's various metaphysical discussions about religion lend more weight to the religious reading of the song's lyrics.<br />
<br />
Interestingly, a typo/mishearing of the lyrics is printed in the sleeve of [[Origin of Symmetry (album)|Origin of Symmetry]]. The line, "Your golden lies feed my role," is printed as "Your golden skies feed my role". This is most likely due to early live versions of the song where Matt sings "skies" instead of "lies".<br />

<br />
Your golden lies feed my role<br />
In this forgotten space race under my control<br />
Who’s returned from the dead?<br />
Who remains (just to spit it in your face?)<br />
<br />
You know that I don’t want you and I never did<br />
I don’t want you and I never will<br />
<br />
You wanted more than I was worth<br />
And you think I was scared, yeah<br />
And you needed proof<br />
Who really cares anymore?<br />
Who restrains (just to spit it in your face?)<br />
<br />
You know that I don’t love you and I never did<br />
I don’t want you and I never will<br />
Waahhh<br />
