March 16, 201115 yr Ok, this thread needs a bump :wacky: So I'll post one of my favorite preformances by them :awesome: [ame] [/ame]
March 17, 201115 yr GUIZE. I don't know if any of you watch "American Idol." But maybe you should. MATT WAS THERE. Ryan Seacrest was talking to one of the contestants (James, I believe), and he asked him, "Are you a Kate Hudson fan?" James said, "Yeah, I like her" or something like that. Anyway, they put the camera on Kate. Her son Ryder was with her, and Matt was sitting to her left. This is what happened: Me: -GAAAAASP!- Matt Bellamy! :cheesy: :dazzled: Mom & Dad: :inquisitive: ... :shrug: -carries on with life- Me: :dazzled: :wacky: LOL. :awesome:
March 17, 201115 yr Me: -GAAAAASP!- Matt Bellamy! :cheesy: :dazzled: Mom & Dad: :inquisitive: ... :shrug: -carries on with life- Me: :dazzled: :wacky: LOL. :awesome: :cheesy: That would have been my reaction too. I probably would have jumped out of my seat. :lol: Apparently, he's been having a (hopefully) lovely vacation in Mexico and California. :wacky: He should drop by my city, even though there's nothing to do here. On another Muse related note, we're doing a March Madness thing at ontd_muse with a bunch of Muse songs. :awesome: It's good fun . . . even though we just mostly rant/scream/sob over how "[insert Muse song title]" is losing to "[insert another Muse song title]" and how it's messing up our own brackets.
March 17, 201115 yr ^^ You stop laughing at my fangirliness, Lore! :lol: ^ Actually, I almost did jump out of mine. It was crazy. :bomb: Wait, Muse March Madness? I WANNA PARTICIPATE.
March 17, 201115 yr ^ :awesome: We're on Round 3 now. It can get a little crazy with the matches and sometimes you want to yell at the computer ( :blank: ), but it's pretty awesome. And fun. If you want to actually participate in the voting, you'll need to have a LiveJournal account and then join the ontd_muse community. Or if you don't want to do that, I could just report what the results are each week. :tongue: FYI: The songs were chosen by taking the top 64 Muse songs on last.fm.

March 17, 201115 yr OK, so I was going to try to make my own bracket. IT'S WAY TOO HARD. I CAN'T. :bigcry: With that being said, I'm going to keep a hard copy bracket of what goes on and go from there. Here's what I didn't like about the results of Round 2: 1. "Sunburn" beating "Hoodoo." Yeah, "Sunburn" is a classic, but "Hoodoo" is so beautiful and completely underrated. I love "Hoodoo" to pieces. 2. "New Born" beating "Escape." Same reasoning as #1. I know, I know. "New Born" is awesome. It's just that "Escape" is arguably my favorite track on "Showbiz." Wolsty and I share that view. :heart: 3. "The Small Print" beating "Unintened." WHAT THE HELL, GUYS. :wreck: 4. Some of the match-ups for Round 1 going into Round 2 were torturous. USoE vs. MoTP? Awful. RBS vs. ToaDE? Torturous. I hated that one SO BLOODY MUCH. :bigcry: 5. And now, going into Round 3, it gets even harder. "Megalomania" vs. "Apocalypse Please?" "Hysteria" vs. "Glorious?" ARE YOU SERIOUS? :wreck: Mkay. I'm done. For now.
March 17, 201115 yr While I'm not participating in this bracket thing, I can't say I'm too bothered by most of the results, with awesome tracks like Blackout, Ruled By Secrecy, and MotP making it past tough competitors and DEAD STAR LOST TO KNIGHTS OF CYDONIA ARE YOU SKANKS SERIOUS? I mean, putting 95% of Muse songs against Knights is probably a death wish, so that's just unfortunate seeding, but Dead Star going down in Round 1 is still quite painful. I like The Small Print more than Unintended. :embarrassed: Psh. Pick "Showbiz." Done. Yes. I love Cave and all, but choice is clear.
March 17, 201115 yr Cave was my favourite song for ages, so it's difficult for me. D: I actually can't choose between Hysteria and Glorious. :|
March 17, 201115 yr I actually can't choose between Hysteria and Glorious. :| Yeah, that's a toughie. It seems like Glorious is the only non-Hullabaloo B-side they threw on there. Stockholm vs. Darkshines and CE vs. Blackout are also difficult. Most of the others in Round 2 feature two awesome songs against one another, but one clearly being superior.
March 17, 201115 yr I know what you guys mean. Even Round 2 voting was really difficult for me. :freak: And I'm still miffed with some of the results, like how Unnatural Selection beat Uno (just because I love Uno way too much). :shifty: 1. "Sunburn" beating "Hoodoo." Yeah, "Sunburn" is a classic, but "Hoodoo" is so beautiful and completely underrated. I love "Hoodoo" to pieces. :awesome: Hoodoo is gorgeous. I chose it over Sunburn, but I guess I'm not surprised with it losing. . . . DEAD STAR LOST TO KNIGHTS OF CYDONIA ARE YOU SKANKS SERIOUS? I mean, putting 95% of Muse songs against Knights is probably a death wish, so that's just unfortunate seeding, but Dead Star going down in Round 1 is still quite painful. :lol: There are a lot of people on ontd_muse who share your opinion on that. As much as I like Knights, I'd take Dead Star anytime.
March 17, 201115 yr Me: -GAAAAASP!- Matt Bellamy! :cheesy: :dazzled: Mom & Dad: :inquisitive: ... :shrug: -carries on with life- Me: :dazzled: :wacky: LOL. :awesome: hahaha It's like me when I see Muse on TV :awesome: FYI: The songs were chosen by taking the top 64 Muse songs on last.fm. That graphic it's very useful if I want to decide which is my Muse ultimate favorite song :lol::lol: So I can't finally have a favorite song... :P
March 17, 201115 yr That graphic it's very useful if I want to decide which is my Muse ultimate favorite song :lol::lol: So I can't finally have a favorite song... :P That's what I did, and it came down to Sing for Absolution and Bliss. Now, Sing for Absolution is my favorite, but maybe it will change to Bliss (or some other song) in a month. :P
March 17, 201115 yr Yeah, that's a toughie. It seems like Glorious is the only non-Hullabaloo B-side they threw on there. Stockholm vs. Darkshines and CE vs. Blackout are also difficult. Most of the others in Round 2 feature two awesome songs against one another, but one clearly being superior. Yeah, they should of put The Groove on there. As much as I like Knights, I'd take Dead Star anytime. This.
March 17, 201115 yr While I'm not participating in this bracket thing, I can't say I'm too bothered by most of the results, with awesome tracks like Blackout, Ruled By Secrecy, and MotP making it past tough competitors and DEAD STAR LOST TO KNIGHTS OF CYDONIA ARE YOU SKANKS SERIOUS? . i don't like deadstar :shame: but knights is my exam song i always listen to it before job interviews and in past before exams:awesome:
March 17, 201115 yr I used to not care for Knights at all, but then I started listening to more live versions of it and it began to slowly grow on me. And then I listened to the HAARP version with Dan the Trumpet Man ( :awesome: ), and it won me over. I love the outro in the one they played at Abbey Road (5:45 - 6:14). :wacky: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYDerPy0sh0]Knights of Cydonia[/ame]
March 17, 201115 yr I LOVE those Live at Abbey Road videos :dazzled: Specially MotP :nice: but KC is brilliant too :awesome: Plus Dom looks so cute in that white shirt :wink3:
March 17, 201115 yr DEAD STAR LOST TO KNIGHTS OF CYDONIA ARE YOU SKANKS SERIOUS? I mean, putting 95% of Muse songs against Knights is probably a death wish, so that's just unfortunate seeding, but Dead Star going down in Round 1 is still quite painful. True that, man. I mean, I wasn't as bothered about that, given that I like them both a lot, but "Dead Star" is amazing. It shouldn't have been knocked out so early. :disappointed: I like The Small Print more than Unintended. :embarrassed:[/size] Haha, awwwww. :hug: It's OK. I'm not judging. I actually like "The Small Print" very much. I just like "Unintended" a smidge more. :smiley: Yes. I love Cave and all, but choice is clear. YAY. Someone agrees. :awesome: Cave was my favourite song for ages, so it's difficult for me. D: I actually can't choose between Hysteria and Glorious. :| Oh, I see. Yeah, it's hard to not choose a song you have a personal connection to. OMG, I KNOW. :freak: That's like asking me which arm I would like amputated. It's impossible. I know what you guys mean. Even Round 2 voting was really difficult for me. :freak: And I'm still miffed with some of the results, like how Unnatural Selection beat Uno (just because I love Uno way too much). :shifty: "Uno" is actually one of my least favorite Muse songs ever, so it wasn't that hard for me. -waits for stunned looks from fellow Musers- :awesome: Hoodoo is gorgeous. I chose it over Sunburn, but I guess I'm not surprised with it losing. Yeah, I know. "Sunburn" is too much of a classic with hardcore Musers for it to not win. :disappointed: Yeah, they should of put The Groove on there. OMIGOD YES. :heart:
March 17, 201115 yr Speaking of brackets, there's also a Musical March Madness taking place on MTV. Why does this apply to you Musers? Muse is the #2 seed in the South division. You need to vote for them to ensure that they at least get far, if not win the whole thing. (Which is exactly what I have happening in my dream bracket.) In the first round, they're facing Cobra Starship. Muse is winning at the moment, but you never know what could happen. You should go here to vote for Muse. :heart:
March 17, 201115 yr There are some pretty interesting matches in that MTV March Madness . . . *votes for Muse* Plus Dom looks so cute in that white shirt :wink3:[/size] They're great, aren't they? The boys sound pretty fantastic. I agree on Dom. :mellow: "Uno" is actually one of my least favorite Muse songs ever, so it wasn't that hard for me. -waits for stunned looks from fellow Musers- :stunned: :P Nah, that's cool!
