Muse fight the Powers That Be on one hand, and release the "official" for the money driven advertising fest that is the Olympic games.

Genius.

bILLOO · 27-06-2012, 04:17 PM

This means "main stream song for the general public".

kazzie · 27-06-2012, 04:22 PM

Even on BBC News...

This is really cool.

I don't care if it's laced with clichés about winning and all that. It's a new Muse song to listen that will hold me over until the new album comes out.

Although I think if there was going to be a Muse song as an Olympic theme, "Butterflies & Hurricanes" is more appropriate.

Yeah, definitely ! I always sing that one after exams, after sports, after rehersals with my band - wait - I sing that one all the time ! My favourite !

But fits the olympics - together with Invincible - that one maybe even more...

I'm so excited about the new one ! ! ! Hope it rocks ! ! !

I am disgusted that Muse would support the Olympics at all. Have they not heard of Bhopal and Dow Chemicals and the way Lord Smarmy Coe blocked all email protests from Amnesty? So much for all Matt's save the world rubbish, he's just another sell out.

Nice.

bellamylookalike · 27-06-2012, 09:55 PM

Falsettos and guitar. Praise the lord.

I don't care about all the crap behind it, I love this song. Although it does remind me of Take That's 'Shine'

OMG that!

I was afraid it was going to end up being crappy like NSC, but I love it. I think it was very well crafted.

I still can't believe they released a new song!!and it's AMAZING!!especially the intro....it gave me chills!!

Soulkeeper · 28-06-2012, 02:06 AM

so happy for this song. such a crappy year i've been having.

_A_ · 28-06-2012, 02:54 AM

I LOL'd then

and stopped playing it on first listen.

The lyrics, Matt's vocals, the choir, the Chariots of Fire like intro ... I don't even want to hear the supposed "Bohemian Rhapsody" like parts ...

I can't believe it. It's worse than NSC.
