I'm so sorry man, I know how badly it hurts 'cause I went through the same thing. The only useful advice I can give you is: keep looking forward. I know it's difficult, but the pain will become bearable eventually, and you'll start living again. Scarred, for sure, but the wound will be healed. Do it for him, and for you. Best wishes! 💪

Wrong, disorder is the norm. You can run away but it will eventually get you. With time every system will tend to disorder, being isolated it is not possible to bring order, making the disorder the status quo.

[@janecat8753]

histotoxic He is a genius. That can't be denied. His sheer talent alone is more than enough for him to qualify as one, but the knowledge and understanding of things that he possesses makes it even more so. And I absolutely do love that man to death.

The message behind a lot of their songs is blatantly obvious if you understand Matt's political views (as a Libertarian Socialist). This one was particularly blunt: ignore climate change at your future peril. You will never be able to outrun its destruction forever, it will catch up with you or those you care about.

[@barryproctor3484]

Yellowflop Try listening to the full album - the word unsustainable will stick in your head forever

[@RomanusKaiser]

Ayla Leppers It's about unsustainable economic growth, and how it will inevitably destroy the planet which sustains us, and therefore kill us. That's what the filmclip to the prelude song 'Unsustainable' shows, and what the lyrics talk about. The computer-wave is our economy 'rationalising' and 'processing' the natural world, leaving nothing behind for actual human beings to live in.

[@CFL0]

I would play this song every time I would go out for groceries while the Coronavirus lockdown was being implemented. Seeing empty streets, people with masks around the city, ambulances and business activity completely absent was such a SURREAL experience. The tension, uncertainty, the feeling of constant threat of an unknown virus. Wow. It was quite something. (I want to clarify I'm not saying this with a giddy tone or saying the pandemic was a good thing that happened. I'm only talking about how intense the feeling was and made a comparison to the film due to its similarity).

I have such tied feelings for this song. When I was 12 and excited to see World War Z, I just adored the theme. I learnt it on piano, and played it nonstop. Never bothered to find out who wrote it until started seeing if the creators made any other great piano themes (little did I know they had tons of them). That's when I found out about Muse. I explored The 2nd Law not knowing Muse had more albums and got addicted to animals (sorry survival). Then I went on to find Apocalypse please by accident in my recommended, and then Muse blew up for me.

One of the many reasons that I enjoy Muse so much: their ability to have variation. I love all the happy stuff, the epic stuff and the ridiculous stuff, but their sad songs are just beautiful. Unlike many songs that are meant to be sad produced nowadays, sad songs by Muse are never moany, they never give you the idea that it's just a song about how awful life is. Instead, they are tastefully sad, and bound to make you cry out of either sheer shock, fear or sadness, but it's not depressing. You just have that one moment when you watch this video and you think about it and it's just shocking, really. :oo :D We love you Muse. :3

[@jetskidad928]

This song.. I don't know how to explain it.. it hurts me, it gives me anxiety, it makes me want to get up and scream or break down and cry or both neither nothing everything. It just, well, it really gets to me, I guess, the way she just gives up and turns around and runs toward it and embraces it because she knows she can't change it, she knows everyone's dead, she knows it will be the end but she has the strength to just accept it and--- I can't.

[@kerwanstar]

Scanning the other comments, all I can see is stuff about how cool this song is, how cool the effects are, and how this song was in World War Z. I don't know if any of you actually realize the scary truth behind this song. Granted, the video is an artist's depiction of an event we can never comprehend (and quite possibly, never see). Regardless, this is a future we are heading toward. If you pay attention to the song preceding this one, The 2nd Law: Unsustainable, the message in that is that we, as the human race, are destroying our home. I wouldn't say I'm super-green, but there are definitely things we need to worry about. Please pay attention to the message Muse is trying to send us. I understand that environmentalism has been heard of unfavorably, but there are a lot of very simple things you can do that can save the planet. I'm not asking you to change anything. I'm just asking that you think more about this topic because we are heading down an unsustainable path, and, quite frankly, it scares the hell out of me.

So much arrogance in this line: "a lot of very simple things you can do that can save the planet". Not trying to offend or anything, this line is thrown very often in today's media/everyday lives. But still, us trying to save the planet is like our gut bacteria trying to save our own body. The planet has been through worse than us and recovered, but like every other entity in the universe, it has a life span and all we are doing is burning through that life span as fast as possible, as mister Hitler puts it, we have to hightail it outta here A.S.A.P.

this is one of the most profound videos of this era. It perfectly explains what is happening now. 4/26/22 Still relevant.

MUSE is the art of pure music

Totally agree

[@martillodragon034]

probably the best muse music video

[@jessicamoley123]

I see this as humanity running from inevitable extinction. As previously established, in an isolated system, entropy can only increase. Even though Physics dictates that the human race, among with all things, will come to an end, as a race we a we determined to keep running from it. When the woman runs the opposite way, it could symbolise how we will only realise this when it's too late. Just my view.

[@horusloko]

Survival instinct is normal in all life forms in Earth, even in humans, who know the end is inevitable.

[@eoghancorr3568]

To which I answer: Space. The Final Frontier. These are the......No really though. I think space exploration will probably only go so far. We are insanely and impossibly far away from any other system that can support life that we know of. We will burn a bright but short flame, then the universe will move on as if nothing happened. We will return to the stars as our base elements and be reborn into something else, be it inert or alive. Kinda beautiful in a way.

[@horusloko]

Eoghan Corr Beautiful and chaotic! Exactly how I like.

[@ShadoeLass]

+Eoghan Corr but even exploring space, the universe is a closed system, and eventually entropy will increase to the point in it that the entire universe will end

[@loganreed23]

@@ShadoeLass nope, Universe is infinte, so we can't apply Second Law to it. There must some more general and broad law to acknowledge the infinity of our universe but we don't have data to somehow find it and I guess we will never will

If you know what entropy is, it's really easy to understand the meaning of this video.

Entropy: The more you fight, the more you lose.

[@nolanwestrich2602]

1: You can't win. 2: You can't break even. 3: You can't quit. (You've probably seen this before but there you go.)

[@Jan_von_S]

We must expand our minds, hearts and conciousness. In an isolated system entropy can only increase...

[@primusro]

In an isolated system the entropy can only increase indeed. That's why everytime I hear someone say "why go to space, there are plenty of things to fix here on Earth first" is basically ignorance. If we focus on fixing things here on Earth, this has no end. In fact it will get worse as time passes. Why couldn't we just attempt to both?

I'm curious if other people feel this song could be about nuclear war and the world ending through nuclear explosions from the bombs being dropped?

[@tutsybassista]

The 2nd Law! 🥀 Perhaps their most emotional, unique, and personal album. I don't know why it's like the "forgotten" album. I love and hate this album at the same time because of the personal factor. I'm just now playing it after a decade....

[@andreahough2077]

I’ve been a fan of Muse since Origin of Symmetry, and have all the tours since then besides The 2nd Law tour. I disliked this album so much I wasn’t at all interested in seeing it live. Even my younger brother (who got into Muse from listening to me listening them) tried to get me into this album back when it very first came out. I wasn’t having any of it! “Too dubstep for me”. Only last year or so, when my other half found this album all scratched up in a car he washed, did we start to listen to it. I remember us sitting in the car that day, on the drive outside our house listening to it for nearly the whole album whilst saying to each “you know this is really good!” We love it now. I absolutely cannot believe we didn’t appreciate it sooner and I’m kicking myself for missing the tour. What was I thinking?!

[@tutsybassista]

Yeah, I don't get it. I loved it even though I was going through postpartum psychosis after my 2nd daughter. I was in and out of the hospital, forced to take drugs or lose your kids, and my then husband got me that album cuz my girls were forced to go to daycare. They just assumed I was gonna be a killing machine. The Drones concert had 1 bad intension, but it failed. Got forced to divorce in 2016, and been fine since. Except from 2010-2016, I can't remember almost nothing! It sucks. I love the album I hate. So, it's bizarre my youngest daughter is pushing me to listen to this album again. I really like the Mathness alternate version of Madness....

[@Akathelastnix]

I heard this at world war z and had no idea muse made it . This is awesome , muse always makes remarkable and unique stuff 👌

[@Djseagal244]

Amazing soundtrack by Muse. Not sure if you agree but this line that is following people on the video is actually time we have in our lives! We dont have much time, this is why you need to make the most of it. Do what you like, and follow your passion. At the end the of the video that women embraces it, which is the right thing to do. But that is just my interpretation and a message.

[@Ahonya666]

Listening to this song you understand why Muse's songs play a lot of times on Doctor Who episodes....I miss those times

[@nathaliavillegas4199]

To be honest, this intro for World War Z is the best thing I've ever heard. The creator chose the right intro.

Cómo el sonido en manos de artistas talentosos puede convertirse en obras de arte , solo con MUSE.

[@joelwoodford5737]

As a non biased Muse fan, impartial to any previous albums, I absolutely think The 2nd Law doesn't deserve half the crap it gets for being an 'inferior' Muse album. I personally feel it's a great collection of songs marred only by one or two missteps (the dub-step experiments were a bit cheesy and spoiled the mood). This song however ties together the whole album's bleak message beautifully and I think it marks the peak of their most electronic focused music.

[@Choco58740]

Thermodynamics everywhere...

[@twasbrillig33]

Correction, hyperdimensional physics everywhere www.halexandria.org/dward118.htm

[@Adlore]

+twas brillig the concept of entropy is still thermodynamics isn't it?

[@twasbrillig33]

ENTERUSERNAMEHERE555 yes it is but I my comment was geared towards the video which represents what I would imagine a hyperdimensional physical world would be like "the field of hyperdimensional physics as one based on geometry and mathematics, and which involve other spatial dimensions. According to Hoagland (with due regard to Tom Bearden, et al), hyperdimensional physics goes back to the 19th Century, where mathematicians and physicists began delving into “theoretical ‘non-Euclidian’ geometries (geometries involving spatial dimensions in addition to ‘length, breadth and height’), and a set of specifically predicted physical interactions of energy and matter determined by those ‘non-Euclidian geometries.’" and then you could combine that with entropy and get what's in the video. =)
