Analysis and Explanation

Exo-Politics was played at nearly every US Campus Invasion Tour gig, with the sole exception being the April 20th gig, leading to a high number of early performances. Early versions are incredibly hard to find, but many fans believe them to be superior than the finished version (something early Assassin performances also have in common). For whatever reason, the finished version was rarely played at all, making three appearances in September 2006 and four in November. Interestingly the last two performances of the song were in a run through of the entire album, and not the band's unique selection of the song. The band may have not been satisfied with the finished product, and for that reason avoided playing it. It was the only album track not to make an appearance in 2007. The changing beliefs of Matt Bellamy may also prevent this song from returning to setlists again, with its themes of hidden alien invasion and alien cooperation with governments being beliefs Matt no longer follows. Matt famously laughed at these themes in an interview at one time. Interestingly, the song was never played outside of USA and the UK.

In a poll of 500 fans conducted in November 2015, out of a total thirty songs that had not been played since The Resistance era, fans voted Exo-Politics as the twelfth most requested song to make a return to setlists.[1]
