Exogenesis: Symphony Part I (Overture) (live)
This page contains a list of all known performances of Exogenesis: Symphony Part I (Overture).
Analysis and Explanation
The Exogenesis: Symphony is one of Muse's most complex works and because of this made it difficult to perform. It has never been attempted in full due to Matt being frightened that it wouldn't turn out well. For that reason alone Parts II and III were never performed during The Resistance tour, and Part II has never been performed at all.
Overture is the only part of the Exogenesis: Symphony to have been performed more than once. It was performed relatively often during The Resistance tour, usually the intro to the concert. After 2011 though, the song was permanently dropped from setlists. This is likely due to the song's complexity as well as its lack of significance to the theme of The 2nd Law and the Drones tours.
Fans do not seem to mind it being dropped that much, however, as 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 Overture as the twenty-fifth most requested song to make a return to setlists.[1]
