jump Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 I thought he was all political and whatnot? Or am I just thinking of the generic template for middle class rock stars and applying it to Matt Bellamy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesecretingredientiscrime Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Why have Muse decided to chum up with the fucking McCocaColaOlympics corporate w*nk fest? And that song is a piece of shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babyquack Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Am I the only one on here that actually likes the song? Sure, it's definetly NOT their best but it's not too bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lharris92 Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 listened to it a few times, sounds like a mash together of loads of different bands. not their best stuff but its ok i guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6daviesdr Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 well atleast a handfull of people dont absolutely hate it. Its just going to be an album track anyway so the singles should be stronger i'd hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBarbour Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 As much as I don't like the song gotta say it's a good move from Muse/Matt. Prob got a bucket full of money, more exposure for the band, free marketing for new album, sell more old albums/singles for people that never listened to muse before. But it is utter Shiite!

Yellow_Fellow Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Instruments are tight as hell. Love the fact there's some old school call backs. And I'm pretty certain the lyrics are a piss take haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mouseboy11 Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 The comments are funny with how people are making some ridiculous arguments to defend it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonodillieono Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Oh I'm not defending it. the lyrics are embarrassing. I was just saying it wouldn't have been partially written before them deciding it would be an Olympics-themed song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jump Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 They were approached to write the song about a year ago for the olympics so they started working on it, it was originally going to be a duet with a "brilliant piano player" (Elton John or someone I guess) so he wrote it with it in mind that he'd be playing it with them however the piano player pulled out before it was finished. Muse just decided to show the Olympic Committee what they wrote anyway and they liked it and accepted it. I like the song, much better than the shit they've been writing recently. Obviously nowhere near as good as the older stuff but definitely better than The Resistance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonodillieono Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 It took them 8 years to write one of the songs on The Resistance so to take only a year to write a better song is good by their standards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonodillieono Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 There's a solo in this song compared to lack of them in The Resistance (Guiding Light doesn't count that was 6 seconds long). I'm not saying a solo makes a good song but it's going back to the old Matt Bellamy way (slightly ). Also he's using his falsetto again unlike in The Resistance, he hit's his highest chest voice in this song and matches his highest falsetto so he's actually using his voice again unlike how flat The Resistance was all the way through.

kaosmark2 Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 As far as I'm concerned Muse only released 4 albums then retired. Another band then appeared pretending to be them and did The Resistance and this olympics song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lharris92 Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 i don't get why people are complaining about "how bad it is" due to it being the official olympics track they obviously had to make it so that it would appeal to the masses not just a niche market. lets all just wait and find out what all the other tracks on the album sound like, then start complaining about it.
