If you could re-order/re-track a Muse album, how would you do it?

Travisx2112 · 14-09-2008, 11:18 PM

How would you re order or put different songs on to any of the Muse albums if you had the chance? They can be B-sides, re-ordering the tracks, or getting rid of/replacing them with others.

I would get rid of the Assassin on BHAR, I think, and replace it with the GOB edit. I'd also get rid of the Butterflies and Hurricanes version without guitar, and replace it with one with guitar.

I'm so used to the albums I would not re-order the tracks !

But I'd definitely add the B-sides... Actually that's what I did on iTunes : I added all the B-sides at the end of each album.

Take Feeling Good off Origin of Symmetry and you have the best album ever

Clunge · 15-09-2008, 12:09 PM

+1 to that.

Disagreed.

Raiko · 15-09-2008, 01:36 PM

I wouldn't change a lot to be honest. I would drop The Small Print, Endlessly and Thoughts of a Dying athiest from Absolution and replace them with The Groove and Fury. I'd then swap Soldier's Poem for Endlessly on Black Holes & Revelations.

As for Origin, I think it's perfect. Wouldn't touch it at all.

you sir, are correct

Replace Invincible with Glorious on Black Holes & Revelations, then it's a slightly more enticing listen.

trvrphlps · 15-09-2008, 02:19 PM

get rid of interlude and replace it wish nishe on absolution.

its a pointless part of the album and i thing nishe is at least more listenable than a distorted version of adagio for strings

CountDracula · 15-09-2008, 03:58 PM

I would mix showbiz and origin of symmetry making it a double album and that would be the best album to ever be heard on the face of earth :P

forevermusic · 15-09-2008, 04:07 PM

Replace Interlude with Fury on Absolution, and replace Feeling Good with either Shrinking Universe or Dead Star on OoS.

Those three songs you would remove are very good. Why remove them?

Replace Interlude and also Soilders Poem off BHaR if anything.

Iddy · 15-09-2008, 04:20 PM

Showbiz: Replace Overdue with Spiral Static, Escape with Recess or Yes Please.
OoS: Replace Feeling Good with Futurism and add Forced In as the first track (Like an intro) Best album ever

Absolution: Replace FAWY with Eternally Missed, TOADA with Fury and add Dead Star to the tracklist in 2nd.
BHaR: Replace Assassin with the GOB edit, replace SP with Glorious, Easily with Starlight and put Crying Shame in somewhere.

Obi · 15-09-2008, 04:33 PM

Recess and Nature_1 > most Showbiz tracks (apart from Sunburn, Muscle Museum, Showbiz, Unintended). They should both be on there.

"OoS: Replace Feeling Good with Futurism and add Forced In as the first track (Like an intro) Best album ever "

+1.
The greatest album ever would be:
1. Forced In
2. New Born
3. Bliss
4. Space Dementia
5. Hyper Music
6. Plug In Baby
7. Citizen Erased
8. Micro Cuts
9. Screenager
10. Dark Shines
11. Futurism
12. Megalomania

I love Absolution mostly the way it is but I've gone off Thoughts of a Dying Atheist recently. It's a fine song but doesn't fit in as well as I'd like. I think Eternally Missed would be fitted there. In fact EM could be on any album, it's that flipping good.

BHAR should have a rehaul.

1. Take a Bow
2. Starlight
3. Supermassive Black Hole
4. Map of the Problematique
5. Easily
6. Glorious
7. Assassin (GOB edit)
8. Crying Shame/Exo-Politics (unsure here)
9. City of Delusion
10. Hoodoo
11. Knights of Cydonia

Obi · 16-09-2008, 03:47 PM

In fact. Re-ordered Absol today.

I really like this order.

1. Intro
2. AP
3. TIRO
4. Sing For Absolution
5. Stockholm Syndrome
6. Dead Star
7. Nishe
8. Hysteria
9. Blackout
10. Butterflies and Hurricanes
11. The Small Print
12. Endlessly
13. Eternally Missed
14. Ruled by Secrecy
