== Description ==
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">

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.

== Additional information ==
{{GigNav
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.

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.
