== Description ==
== Information ==  
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]].{{cite/none}}  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.


== Additional information ==
Tickets went on sale on the 1{{supo|st}} December 2004 from the Metro, Red Eye Records and Ticketek<ref name="mc20031126"/> and sold out within a day.<ref name="mc20031208">{{cite|title=IMA, Hysteria|desc=MicroCuts news|date=2003-12-08|fetch=2006-11-29| pub=MicroCuts|url=http://microcuts.net/uk/news/archives/12082003-ima_hysteria.php | dom=microcuts.net | type=ext}}</ref>
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.


This song was first written by Matt on the piano, before being played on the guitar.
== The Show ==


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.
Last performance of the guitar only version of [[Sunburn (song)|Sunburn]] to date. As an upshot the [[Riffs and jams#Pre-Sunburn_'04_piano_intro|Pre-Sunburn '04 piano intro]] was played in place of the usual introduction of [[Space Dementia (song)|Space Dementia]].


A cover of this song is featured on [[the String Quartet Tribute]] to Muse.
== Media ==


The effect that Matt uses on this song live on H.A.A.R.P (which he kicks on after the second chorus) is what's known as 'zero-through flange'; which, incidentally, is the earliest form of flange, back when recording engineers were pinching the actual tape to get the effect. However, zero-through flange is available on very few conventional flanger pedals. Matt achieves this effect by using his TC Electronic G Major (this effect is also available on the TC Electronic Vortex flanger, for those of you who want to replicate the sound at a much cheaper price).
The whole show can be downloaded in MP3 on [https://www.musebootlegs.com/?p=torrents&pid=10&action=details&tid=2385 Musebootlegs].

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.
