And they say Matt Bellamy isn't great lyricist. You can find at least one great lyric in every Muse song

[@j.clayton7672]

This is one of the most creative music videos I've ever seen. The cheesy spaghetti western theme, with a few retro fantasy tropes thrown in, is pure genius. Did the band watch the video first then write the song around it? They absolutely nailed it. Whoever is responsible, needs a raise.

[@Oddigan]

"Matt Bellamy wrote this song in part as a tribute to his father, who was a member of The Tornadoes and their 1962 mega-hit “Telstar,” which commemorated the first successful active communications satellite. You can hear the instrumentals at the beginning and hear their resemblance to the satellite-in-space sound that was a staple of “Telstar.” So much of this was a nod to the elder Bellamy’s hit."

in all honesty this is true, but this is also relevant for all periods of human history, what ends up happening is, usually, a legendary soldier/strategist will take advantage of the weakened state to make a military dictatorship that falls once he dies, or you get a roman empire situation, where you get the great REVSTITUTOR ORBIS, or restorer of the world, Marcus Aurelian who will keep your basically dead civilization surviving for another 200 years, 800 if you count the Byzantines. If your talking specifically for America though, usually armed revolution that forces people to make changes or else lose what they have, in this case our technocratic corporatocracy of a democracy, and if you want that gone you'll have to pull an armed revolution, though this has been the same throughout American history, though in this case instead of 'Robber barons take control of us for a hundred years' it 'companies through having far to much money to be reasonable, allowed themselves to change a law to the point where now they can bribe the governent to do things they want, and call it lobbying instead of bribery'

This was the Guitar Hero song that made me say to myself "Why am I wasting my time and effort to learn a sequence of button presses to fake play a song when I'm better off picking up my guitar or bass and learning the actual damned song." So much fun to play the bassline to this and so many other Muse songs. Whatever instrument you play, or always wanted to play, pick one up and learn how to play it. If you think listening to your favorite songs is cathartic, practicing your ass off and then finally nailing one of your favorite songs is absolutely intense.

I can also confirm this, muse and green day got me obsessed with learning how to play guitar, and when I played one of my fav green day songs on guitar after trying to learn it for so long. It felt so damn amazing.

I'm sure we're all a decent age here now if guitar hero was your source of this song. I know its kind of stigmatized a bit but ive found so many great bands and artists from that game and this is one of them. Thank you to the developers for putting such great music into an instrument based games that I spent waaay too much time on lol. With all that being said, if you too have came here for nostalgic vibes or whatever it may be and you're reading this. I wish you the best on your journey wherever it may take you. Much love to you all.

I absolutely adore the music video's style. The 'fake' martial arts are so refreshing and it's so nice to be free of the gritty realism and how seriously combat in media takes itself. It is so nice to just enjoy the comical combat and scenes like this video portrays. You rarely see pieces of film where combat is done in a comical and enjoyable way. 10/10.

One of best songs Muse ever produced. I remember when I listen to this song sixteen years ago on radio while travelling I was really mesmerised and pondered how music of this song was superb, it pushed me to ponder about all Good that had happened in my lifetime so far and it still does when I hear the song. It is kind of incantation of good vibration. Song definitely reflects also injustice in the world about the ‘God who fell asleep on his job’. Superb!!!

This videoclip encompasses what Muse truly do best and makes them unique: purely experimental, with a generous and pleasant dose of silliness; futuristic; highly creative and very well-written and executed songs. Muse are for music what Tarantino is for movies: lots of edge, silliness and greatness. That's why I loved so much the Simulation Theory era.

3:18-4:13 and 4:41-5:09 kind of reminds of the operatic section of Bohemian Rhapsody. Mostly due to the harmonizations in the vocals. Favorite parts of this song! Plus the instrumental building up to 4:14 also makes me thinking of the heavier head banging part of Bohemian Rhapsody. 🤘🤘
