Happiest Muse Songs?

Luis.S · 18-07-2010, 04:50 AM

I found talking about the saddest Muse songs quite depressing haha, so I thought we could discuss the happiest ones as well to lighten the mood up

Sorry if this already exists, I couldn't find it in search.

All Muse songs can make me really happy when I listen to them, but now that I'm thinking about it, I'm really struggling to find songs I would actually call "happy" songs. What does everyone else think?

What I've come up with so far:
Popcorn

KOC
Bliss, although the chorus can be taken negatively
Invincible, or at least its lyrics
Uprising
Don't know about any of Absolution or Showbiz, maybe Apocalypse Please, despite being in a minor key and being about the end of the world

This is actually quite hard.

bliss is supposed to be sad, about envy, however it does have a happy mood

and feeling good is happy

KoC , uprising and AP are not what I would call "happy"

Undisclosed Desires is one of their more happy love songs

The only ones coming to my mind would be SMBH and IBTY.

I'm gonna go with Invincible and IBTY. Maybe I'm interpreting Invincible wrong, but it sounds happy enough to me.

The song's lyrics may not be so positive, but Map of Your Head has this happy little skip about it lol.

With Muse there are so many songs that sound happy, then you get into the lyrics and realize how depressing/angry/obsessive they really are.

(I'm looking at you, Bliss!)

The only ones I can think of that are 100% happy are Feeling Good--and it doesn't really count, because it's a cover--and Invincible. Popcorn definitely. Ummmm...possibly Bedroom Acoustics--a very mellow sort of happy. IBTY, 'cause it's jazzy and cheesy. The cover of Can't Take My Eyes Off You. Fillip...maybe? IDK what that song is about, but it sounds happy.

I'd add Butterflies and Hurricanes as well. It's not "happy", really, but it is positive.

There seems to be a lot of evidence against that.

Undisclosed Desires seems to be a happy song.

Happy songs don't do well with the charts and Muse though. Stick to the depressing songs.

Yes, sex. Although the chorus seems a little on the negative side.

"And it's gonna be our last memory.."

P.S. Holy crap, who's the Ninja Assassin who tagged this thread?

Invincible, Undisclosed Desires and I Belong To You.

Map of Your Head sounds really happy.

It really really isn't though.

Ef(L)Muse · 19-07-2010, 11:18 AM

Feeling good is happy and invincible
