Analysis and Explanation

Eternally Missed was performed just four times upon its live debut. At the time, the band viewed the song as one of their finest and were keen to show it off at the last few dates of 2002. Their opinion had changed in the studio, with Matt once saying he thought the song wasn't even good enough to be a b-side. Thankfully, however, the song was released as the b-side to Hysteria, with the band never playing the song live again. Matt in 2018 cited Eternally Missed as an example of a song that the live audience didn't particularly care for, which is one of the reasons the song wasn't kept around in setlists.

After nearly sixteen years, the song was finally performed again when fans voted it to be included in the Paris Cigale 2018 setlist. Matt stated that he was very surprised that the song made the top 10.

Eternally Missed is the Muse song with the longest gap between performances of almost sixteen years (a record previously held by Host: 1997-2012).
