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.


This song is featured as one of the 20 Best of War Child, it is in an album by them, containing many other artists.
According to Matt Bellamy, "''Compliance is about the promise of safety and reassurance sold to us by powerful entities during times of vulnerability. Gangs, governments, demagogues, social media algorithms & religions seduce us with misleading untruths and comforting fables. They want us to join their narrow worldview in exchange for obedience and turning a blind eye to our own internal voice of reason & compassion. They just need our Compliance.''"<ref>https://twitter.com/muse/status/1502298309368631296</ref>


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-->.

|There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
It’s been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I’m one


Well mothers tell your children

Not to do what I have done
While you spend your life in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun


Well there is a house in New Orleans

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