== Who am I? ==


According to Matt: "This song is completely different from the rest, there is something oppressive inside of it, with a gothic sound"<ref name="RockMagSeptember2003">
I am into [[Muse|the greatest band in the universe]] since 30th April, 2011. This is a date, when I decided to explore it more.
{{cite |
Then I only used to know two songs: [[Supermassive Black Hole (song)|Supermassive Black Hole]] and [[Muscle Museum (song)|Muscle Museum]].

== Additional information ==
== What am I doing here? ==
According to Matt: "The verses speak somewhat of a dead relationship or something like that.There was a great part of improvisation. Making music or sing is for me an act of seeking absolution. In fact, this is my personal way to find a manner to understand myself, understand all these elements confusing on me, those things that scare me and that arise in this song <ref name="RockMagSeptember2003"/>


According to [[Dominic Howard]], this song is about writing music,<ref name="laut20031002">{{cite/laut20031002}}</ref> singing<ref name="unt2003">{{cite/3VOOR12 2003-09-24}}</ref> and the finding of non-religious absolution through both.<ref name="laut20031002"/><ref name="unt2003"/> He described the process of song writing as starting with things one does not understand and the result as feeling better about them.<ref name="unt2003"/>
I want to improve MuseWiki by updating pages, fixing some information; but most importantly, I want to be a part of this great community, which is one of oldest Muse sites <small>(Well... I still miss Muselive)</small>.


An acoustic version was released on the [[Butterflies & Hurricanes (single) | Butterflies & Hurricanes single]].  Live, the song was played from 2003 through 2005 and occasionally in 2007.
I'm working on:
*[[Influences]] - Update information about bands known by me, and add new bands if there'll be any.
*Compilations list - I'm not sure how many of them are missing, but I'm gonna create the ones, which I'll find.
*[[Track catalogue A-H|Track catalogue]] - Actually I'm adding songs released on [[Origin of Muse (box set)|Origin of Muse]], [[Simulation Theory Film (live)| Simulation Theory film]], [[Origin of Symmetry (album)#Origin of Symmetry: XX Anniversary RemiXX|Origin of Symmetry (XX Anniversary RemiXX)]] and [[Will of the People (album)|Will of the People]] (only songs duration left).
*Minor changes and fixes, if I find any.


==Live==
== Do I have discography? ==


Sing For Absolution was commonly player during the Absolution Tour in 2003 and 2004, appearing at more than half of the shows. The song was put to rest for 2 years before reappearing during the Black Holes & Revelations Tour in March 2007. It was played at the Japanese concerts throughout March and a few US concerts in April. The song wouldn't be played until a one-off performance at the second night at Wembley Stadium. The song would return for another few performances in September and October of that year in the US, Europe and Russia.

Latest revision as of 22:59, 18 March 2022

Hello!

You have entered my page :)

Who am I?

I am into the greatest band in the universe since 30th April, 2011. This is a date, when I decided to explore it more. Then I only used to know two songs: Supermassive Black Hole and Muscle Museum.

What am I doing here?

I want to improve MuseWiki by updating pages, fixing some information; but most importantly, I want to be a part of this great community, which is one of oldest Muse sites (Well... I still miss Muselive).

I'm working on:

Do I have discography?

Of course I do! These are mine:

I also have Polish leaflet promoting The 2nd Law release.

Have I attended any Muse gig?

Only one time I saw Muse live:

My opinions about Muse songs/albums/etc?

Can I be found on the other websites?


Guessing time!

Guesses

  • I have predicted that Dig Down release date is 18th May 2017!
  • Now I would like to guess that Something Human's length is: ~3:36. No, its length is 3:46. So I was mistaken by 10 seconds.
  • The Dark Side length will be (in my opinion): 4:06 No, its length is 3:47. So I was mistaken by 19 seconds (Still no 4+ minutes song? Really?).
  • Simulation Theory's length will be: 39:24. No, it's longer, because its length is: 42:12. I was mistaken by 2:48 -> Which is nearly a length of Propaganda.
