== Analysis and Explanation ==
== Analysis and Explanation ==
Take a Bow was played at many of the gigs during the Black Holes and Revelations tour, leading to a high number of performances. Unlike other non-single songs from the album, Take a Bow was played consistently often during 2006, 2007 and 2008 and skipped only at a few gigs. During The Resistance tour, the song was brought back in 2010 with a few scattered performances during the European tour and rare appearances in October and December. After only three performances in 2011, the song has yet to reappear in setlists, making no appearances during The 2nd Law era. Still, the song was performed more often than any non-single song off of Black Holes and Revelations, and more often than [[Invincible (live)|Invincible]].  
Take a Bow was first played as an instrumental demo during the [[Absolution Tour]] with Matt playing the arpeggios of the first half of the song as an interlude between [[Citizen Erased (song)|Citizen Erased]] and various songs. During that period it was labelled as ''Piano Interlude'' on the setlists. After it's release, it was played at almost all gigs of the [[Black Holes And Revelations Tour]], skipping only a handful of gigs up until 2008. It was played as either the set opener or set closer. After no appearances in 2009, the song was brought back in 2010, mainly for the summer stadium shows along with a handful of arena appearances in October and December. After only three performances in 2011, the song was dropped from the setlists, making no appearances during The 2nd Law era.


Matt hinted the song would make a reappearance in 2015 by answering a tweet asking whether the song would be played again, [https://twitter.com/MattBellamy/status/632010960450940928 which he responded] with "Yes". 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 Take a Bow as the sixth most requested song to make a return to setlists.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20151126224641/http://strawpoll.me/6086378/r]</ref> On March 1st, 2016, the song was performed for the first time in five years at the fourth night of the Paris Bercy Arena gigs. It continued to make regular appearances until the end of the Drones World Tour, being dropped for festival gigs alongside [[Prelude (live)|Prelude]], [[JFK (live)|JFK]] and [[Reapers (live)|Reapers]]. It returned the next year and since then has continued to make occasional appearances at shows.  
On the 1 March 2016, the song made a surprise appearance for the first time in five years at the [[Paris AccorHotels Arena 2016 - 1st (gig)|fourth night of the Paris Bercy Arena]] gigs as the first song of the encore. It continued to make regular appearances until the end of the [[The Drones World Tour 2015/16|Drones World Tour]] in mid-June. It returned in 2017 and 2018, making occasional appearances. It was included as part of the setlist during the [[Simulation Theory World Tour]] in 2019, though it was played half a step down. During the Simulation Theory Tour performances, Matt sings the first verse while holding a skull - likely representing the simulation war lords that have corrupted society in this reality. Take a Bow has not been played since the end of the Simulation Theory Tour in October 2019, though it's safe to assume that it will return at some point.

Analysis and Explanation

Take a Bow was first played as an instrumental demo during the Absolution Tour with Matt playing the arpeggios of the first half of the song as an interlude between Citizen Erased and various songs. During that period it was labelled as Piano Interlude on the setlists. After it's release, it was played at almost all gigs of the Black Holes And Revelations Tour, skipping only a handful of gigs up until 2008. It was played as either the set opener or set closer. After no appearances in 2009, the song was brought back in 2010, mainly for the summer stadium shows along with a handful of arena appearances in October and December. After only three performances in 2011, the song was dropped from the setlists, making no appearances during The 2nd Law era.

On the 1 March 2016, the song made a surprise appearance for the first time in five years at the fourth night of the Paris Bercy Arena gigs as the first song of the encore. It continued to make regular appearances until the end of the Drones World Tour in mid-June. It returned in 2017 and 2018, making occasional appearances. It was included as part of the setlist during the Simulation Theory World Tour in 2019, though it was played half a step down. During the Simulation Theory Tour performances, Matt sings the first verse while holding a skull - likely representing the simulation war lords that have corrupted society in this reality. Take a Bow has not been played since the end of the Simulation Theory Tour in October 2019, though it's safe to assume that it will return at some point.
