Muse breakdown their most iconic tracks | Radio X

[@RadioX]

What do you reckon their most iconic track is?

[@acemew3255]

Showbiz

[@connoo-101]

Either Knights of Cydonia or Uprising.

[@lloolloollooii]

New Born!

[@wumpygaming]

It has to be either Starlight or something like it.. something with synths

[@komenasai86]

for me, unintended.the first muse song i heard.when i heard it, i feel the chemistry(maybe because of matt voice), and its weird(different sound from other band like coldplay,oasis,the strokes,popular band from that time).and i dont even know muse that time.only years after that,and after absolution release,i know about muse.and i remember unintended because of matt voice.after that i bought absolution cassette, after hours of listening, i bought showbiz and origin of symmetry with hullabaloo disc.and yeah,i been fan since then.thank you to whoever play that unintended song,because of you i found my fav band.

[@aayushcovers8723]

Yh you wouldn’t expect his pitch to go up that high one bit, plug in baby was the first proper falsetto I heard from him and I was shocked I wasn’t expecting it, but when I try to sing his songs. My own voice doesn’t work, I have to use a fake singing voice like him, he basically puts more air into his normal voice

I love resistance, what people think of Fury [Absolution]

[@abrahamissac5938]

It’s a song about “those people” it reminds them of ?what? But now they work for “those people” so it’s a song they can’t really enjoy playing.

"[Resistance] is shit" -Matt Bellamy (2018)

[@adamcallan3588]

@Rob Melrose I disliked it at first but over the years I have come to appreciate it. I was 12 when it came out and had recently got into them through Guitar Hero 3. I enjoyed New Born, KOC, Bliss, Plug In Baby, Stockholm etc.. so when The Resistance came out I only enjoyed the louder ones, my fav being Unnatural Selection. Back then I didn't care for thr symphonies and didn't even think of them as being part of the album. I still wonder whether them writing 3extra band tracks and releasing the symphonies as it's own release would have been better but they are now part of The Resistance for me and I enjoy the album because of how obscure it is. Alt,, Electronic, symphonic rock, classical, etc. It's probably on par with BHAR.

[@IceSpoon]

I wanted to hear Dom's thoughts on Stockholm. He goes freaking mental on the drums on that one!

[@andic2204]

so nice to see Chris in an actual interview

[@J29117]

Take a shot every time Matt says Y'know.

[@Apricot_418]

Take a shot every time any musician says it in an interview. It's pretty much hardwired into the brains of some of them to say it at least five times in response to a question. And this is almost exclusive to guitarists....

[@onnizx]

Rappers love to say it too.. With a "what I'm saying" added at the end, y'know whaddiamsayin?
