Fun tune, all the same. such as 'womanizer' by britney spears? the last couple times this song has begun i cant stop it from coming to mind. ugh. |

I think the new seasons of Doctor Who are great! If you like sci-fi camp, then visit the Doctor. I think I preferred Christopher Eccleston over the guy who has done the last couple of years. But it's all good fun. |

actually they hit it big by being exposed to the millions of twilight fans. Muse will appear on the second soundtrack as well.

I like Muse for the most part. Seeing them live was fun. I too got a Dr. Who vibe from this tune.
My only issue is that the more I hear Muse, the more I find them a little too camp. But I haven't heard much from this album... I will give it a chance.

Enjoying their 70s-80s mode on this album way better than the 90s homage stuff on the last.

This song is about 5 years too late...to be on the soundtrack for the Matrix. The music is good, the lyrics aren't.

Yay for Muse! Thanks RP!
Check out "United States of Eurasia" from this album and enjoy the homage to Queen.

Ever since I read the review in the Guardian calling this song "a deceptively conventional glitter-stomp melange of the Dr Who theme and Blondie's Call Me," I just can't hear it the same way.
That said, Muse in their bombastic fine form. |

New Muse! I was excited. I don't think it's as good as Absolution or Black Holes and Revelations but it's still pretty damned good!
