it's not a muse interview if matt doesn't mention 1984

[@elderflowercordialman1572]

And talk about it at 700 mph

[@VikkiOddsocks]

Love listening to someone who loves what they are doing - and are superbly good at it. Matt, Dom & Chris were born to make music together. It's other worldly. Thank you for the music . And thank you for another great interview.

[@SilverCali11]

Greatest band alive! Never forget them melting my face for the first time in 2005. Obsessed since.

[@felixoum351]

People overlook how the songwriter of Won't Stand Down and Kill or Be Killed is just there wearing a classic hawaiian shirt and talking

[@Pixielocks]

Omg 1984 the musical with music by Muse 😩

[@HeliozSam]

I always thought Muse music would fit well in a musical

[@kertuhollo3633]

can please somebody make this happen.

[@kami_kuro_]

*The Resistance has entered the chat*

[@madhaze0126]

Yes please! :)

[@robmarshall9026]

Just happened basically

[@cerealkiller193]

Matt is my God. MUSE has been my favorite band ever since I discovered them back somewhere around 2004. I heard Newborn in a french horror film (I'm American) and Our Time Is Running Out on the radio. This new WOTP Album is everything I wanted and needed especially with Halloween. Love them!

[@bloodromance4776]

Me too, i also watched that french horror (but I'm from Kazakhstan) and in the end of the film New Born blasted and I'm just lost

[@AtomizedSound]

@@D23595 You need to relax. Telling people to repent isn’t getting anywhere. Do you repent everyday? Maybe they do too but just like to listen to some good music. You’re here on this channel about Muse for a reason so I’m gonna say you like their music too. Don’t be a hypocrite or a mighty Christian one way but not all the way. You do you and the world will either end on its own terms or it will get by somehow

[@Musabre]

Saw Time is Running out playing on some random plasma screen in a snooker-bar in 2004, the rest is history :P. Only band that i can always happily say i can make time to listen to, in any context. And that shit is rare, hell they pretty much defined my formative years.

[@AtomizedSound]

One of my top 5 bands here. Love their diversity in music and hope they stay around for a good while longer

[@MrGeewiz1]

Matt is so interesting and appealing to listen to. He’s the one member of the 3 I’m still yet to meet. We’ve waved at each other but I would love to have a conversation with him.

[@AudacyMusic]

Please let us know when you finally do! 👀

[@RSbolt]

muse will be the soundtrack for the revolution

[@novasoul99]

People are sleeping, spread awareness! The government fucks us all!

[@user-tf6vq9tz6b]

It won't be televised

[@esmeraldavillalobos]

Hai proprio ragione❤

[@muse_lasagna]

The interviewer didn't know that the resistance was full inspired on 1984?

[@novasoul99]

Citizen erased as well I think

[@ChidOki]

Right? Matt could have really put him on the spot or made that awkward, but he had enough tact to just let it go haha

[@duel5071]

Why does he have to know that. It's more interesting the more open perspectives there are about something.

[@zetas2968]

I think they in fact did have some great ballads, for example soildiers poem, blackout, explorers or aftermath

[@boochicky]

Unintended.

[@micheleperkins1956]

The thing that's kept me going through the last 4.5 years of adversity is: Muse. Thanks guys!

[@evasanchezsaez8685]

I'm Spanish. Despite I've got the English level C1 certificate, I struggle trying to get what Matt Bellamy says... He speaks so fast! Hahaha. I'd like to add some information he doesn't say but it's really relevant. When he says that Europe and the rest of the world have followed American ideology, which is true, he omits the country where that ideology was born. And that the new born United States of America adopted this ideology. That country was France. Ideology that caused the French Revolution.

[@remoran5568]

I'm salvadorean and yes he talks very fast 😂

[@jbear6828]

I am a native English speaker and sometimes I have no idea what Matt says :')

[@madsam7582]

That ideology has changed dramatically. While in 1776, people were working off of a revolutionary high and some decent wisdom about the future, if the American constitution was written today it would be mostly protections for massive companies. And that's kinda what's been adopted, as there are more and more controls on the common person.

[@6lliot]

im english and i can barely understand him most of time, especially watching back shows it sounds like complete gibberish because he speaks so fast

[@ullepollu8353]

Great interview! And Muse new album is one of their bests! Love love love

[@officialelviscostello_]

all love, and how are you doing today?

[@BoobooAngel]

Absolutely amazing fantastic album ,as usual, muse delivered ,well done guys ,x

[@ryeofoatmeal]

aww matt is so sweet that he thinks about dom and chris to be involved in muse as much as possible :( you can tell these lads are genuine and passionate about their music making. the fact that matt appreciate good live band that he also wants muse fans to experience the same thing, tell me if that's not dedication? dom mentioned a while ago he wanted fans sitting at the back also feels like they're at the front row (well theoretically lol). but that's insane how much they care about fans tho. I think that is more authentic than just saying 'I love my fans'. their actions says more than the words they speak

[@wakeupYogui]

Muse are the Best … Revolution is necessary in this fucking World.. we are fucking fucked …

[@user-tf6vq9tz6b]

Well, the ones who took the vitamin shots are. Rest of us got to hold out and hold on.

[@muserstark958]

I love him so much !

[@jodidelong3663]

Love "Ghosts" though as one of my top ten Muse songs ever, though I don't know that they ever play it in concert. The remixes with the French and Italian singers are simply gorgeous. Plus it's ever so enjoyable to listen to an intelligent musician who thinks things through. One day I hope to see them live in concert. I'll be the granny in the mosh pit. 🥴

[@carlosb2111]

Matt speaks really fast

[@boochicky]

Sings the same.

[@evrenmatique]

He gets very anxious with interviews and speaking so he talks fast, I believe he’s mentioned it in the past

[@boochicky]

I love Muse. Was there a purpose, was there a point? Blimey, this interviewer.

[@Wolstenstickenstein]

did the interviewer just skip Verona? smh

[@MariaOrtega.97]

Coming to the comments just to see if someone was realised that... 😓

[@AtomizedSound]

Compliance and Verona. Not well researched for an interview

[@J.Braxton]

Verona so underrated

[@nerea4327]

2 years later, Matt scored the 1984 Audible.

[@user-tf6vq9tz6b]

Any musician who mentions Iron Maiden is one of the good ones. I will check Muse out. What is their best music?

[@ferMusic7878]

Their last record has a little of every Muse era.

[@MatthewLowrey489]

I feel like Black Holes and Revelations is the best album to start with :) my personal favourite is Absolution, and most of the hardcore fans love Origin of Symmetry especially. I love all their albums though!

[@aurora6920]

The first 4 albums are great! And some old B side songs

[@user-tf6vq9tz6b]

Thankyou, I will check the albums out, cheers

[@musemuser777]

​@@user-tf6vq9tz6bYou need to start with "Origin Of Symmetry" and "Absolution". Ignore their newer stuff. Trust me, Go with the 2nd & 3rd albums I listed. Don't listen to the last decade until the end... Take care... 🔥🎸🔥

[@LeskaLeto]

I won't hear ghosts in the same way...

[@laurin4405]

Great Interview. Engaging, informative and Entertaining. I'm off to go give "Will Of The People" another listen before Beddy-bye. Thanks y'all✌🌼😎

[@AudacyMusic]

Please do! Thanks for watching :)

funny awkward interview

[@hailingfromlyra777]

He left out Compliance and Verona… I can see why.. The meaning might be a little TOO on the nose

[@novasoul99]

Matt can't just go out in a interview and say "we must bring down the governement". He says it's fictional stuff but we all know the real message

[@hailingfromlyra777]

@@novasoul99 Sadly, yes… but I’m sure he would get a lot of good reactions if he did go in and say “Let’s go take down the government” 😊

[@seanp8220]

He's always been 'BASED'

[@Stormeyworld]

Darn it! Those are two of my favorite songs from the album. I really wanted to hear the meaning behind those songs. Although I can guess why they left them out, it's still nice to hear what Matt would say.

[@hailingfromlyra777]

@@Stormeyworld I’d like to hear what Matt would say about them, too.. Maybe in the near future he might be more willing to open up about certain songs… ❤

[@morwenaeledhwen7647]

Matt has only read one book in his life? 🤣

[@seanp8220]

Dark and tends to be a bit dystopian at times... What, like the world? Aren't we in a real life science fiction movie when you look at the things proposed for the great reset? Hello!!!

[@jazzboifuckicontm5239]

I hear you bro. Shit’s like on the brink of pure dystopia

[@sherrimoon4705]

Mind reader!!

[@grneal26]

How can Matt talk about wealth inequality while still charging $150 for concert tickets for a stadium show? Yes, I did buy them because I love this band but don't give me crap about wealth inequality then.

[@nerea4327]

Their stadium stages are expensive af, though. They cost a lot to build and transport.

[@madsam7582]

Wealth inequality is a CEO that can take a month off and still collect a 7 figure salary then talk about how he needs that money, while sitting on his private jet, and his money comes from thousands working for peanuts. Then he and a load of people work hard to put a show out and people need paying. Just say "I'm broke" rather than attacking people. I went to see the WOTP World Tour £60 standing, just be less lazy! 🤣🤣

@@madsam7582 $150 was the general admission standing in a huge stadium. stop talking crap you don't know about.
