Let's start over again
Why can't we start it over again
Just let us start it over again
And we'll be good
This time we'll get it, get it right
It's our last chance to forgive ourselves
Why can't we start it over again
Just let us start it over again
And we'll be good
This time we'll get it, get it right
It's our last chance to forgive ourselves

| chris_the_man | Posted: Mar 08, 2013 - 09:00 Just a beautiful song this is.jeah they've gone over the top now with too much drama.but this song is from before that.saw them twice live,unbelievable good live band! |
| schitfitz (Heart of the Pines) | Posted: Mar 08, 2013 - 08:59 Okay, this just got me to turn the stereo up. That's a very good sign. A very good sign indeed. Beethoven meets (god forgive me for saying this) Coldplay. Oh well, I know somebody who loves Sardines and Peanut Butter sandwiches. |

| stahlwerk | Posted: Dec 04, 2012 - 08:27 The beginning, before the drums set in along with the pathos, sounds a lot like Mono (Japan). |
| NeuroJoe (Central mASS) | Posted: Dec 04, 2012 - 08:27 For me, starts out similar to The Delgados "The City Consumes Us". I always expect to hear Emma Pollock come in with vocals. |

| Lug | Posted: Jun 06, 2012 - 10:26 Turn off the vocals, and then... enjoy |

| AndyJ (Oregon) | Posted: Jan 31, 2012 - 15:07 Vocal harmonies could be smoother... The contrast with the music makes vocals seem unpracticed. |
| shutter (You can't get here from there) | Posted: Nov 24, 2010 - 06:19 Ehhhhhhh, it's pleasant enough, I s'pose. It's got that soothing Beethoven-y kinda hook working for it. Not a fan of the vocals, though. |

Thanks for a superb listen Bill and Rebecca. (From a fan in the UK) Can I hug you? You are exactly what RP is all about - music appreciation. Whether we love a song or hate it, that we're here listening and commenting is just a wonderful thing. And I'm with you - rap doesn't make me happy, but that doesn't make it "bad." That whole freedom of choice thing is getting pretty important in these days of censorship and political-correctness. And then there's Stingray, who is in a class by himself (because he killed and ate all his other classmates.) |
| helgigermany (Germany) | Posted: Sep 08, 2010 - 23:18 Very nice album! Like to hear more!! |
| Cynaera (South of Neanderthal) | Posted: Aug 20, 2010 - 20:48 I was folding clothes, and this song came on, and I sorta froze to listen... It's gorgeous. Not hip-hop, not rap, not disco, not rock - it's simple, elegant, beautiful, and perfect. I love it. |

| (former member) (Idaho) | Posted: May 04, 2010 - 12:28 Watching Muse take classical, rock, electronica, mind-blowing vocals and a universal message to a place no one cares to discuss let alone sing about .. I've truly experienced that Muse brings a dimension to our day that no one else can supersede. The way the band sticks together and actually respects each others talents is 9/10 of the magic, especially given the propensity for bands to be argumentative and competitive within themselves. .. hearing the Exogenesis Symphony is beautiful .. |

| nate917 (2,815 miles from home) | Posted: Apr 15, 2010 - 11:57 I just don't have enough information to know whether Matthew Bellamy actually takes himself as seriously as it sounds like he does on this song. If he does, I think he's on the fast track to a pie in the face. |
