I know that, but I thought that wasn't until later. Have some places got access to it before others then?

The Muse Thread - Hate This & I'll Hate You
a) Can someone fill me in on this whole 'legit leak' thing? b) I haven't listened to the album yet, but I have heard the live songs from Cologne, plus Unsustainable and about half of Isolated System. Most of what I've heard seems pretty good though (miles above The Resistance at any rate) so I'm not sure what all the negativity is about. I'll reserve judgement until I hear the album in full, but from initial impressions I'd rate it about level with BH&R. (Better than TR and Showbiz, not quite up to par with Abso or Origin)

I think very few people have actually got it to work :P

LP6
Muse disappointed a lot of fans with the Resistance in 2009, and I feel the same thing happened with Coldplay in 2011. Muse's LP6 however is shaping up to be one of their best albums yet, so I can only hope that Coldplay will follow the same pattern.

The Muse Thread - Hate This & I'll Hate You
I think Follow Me is pretty likely as the next single actually. I wouldn't be surprised if Panic Station was a single at some point though.

Is there a God?
If there was a god, LMFAO wouldn't have existed in the first place. Seriously though, I think there is no 'god' in any physical sense of the word. Anyone who believes in a religion is perfectly fine to believe in whatever mystical deity they want. Whatever gives them hope, reassurance, strength, courage etc. It doesn't matter to anyone other than themselves what they choose to believe in. Do I believe that there is some all-powerful guy watching over everything that we do and constantly judging us? No. Do I believe in a set of rules and patterns that govern the known universe and how it works? Yes. You say tomato, I say tomato. 'God' only exists to people who call this force/creator/whatever 'god'. You could call it the flying spaghetti monster (some people do, I believe) and it would still be the same thing, just with a different name. In my view, there is no reasoning, thinking 'god'. If 'god' is some force of nature, then it is not one that punishes individuals because they've done something wrong. It doesn't reward those who have done something right either. Good things happen to bad people, bad things happen to good people. One cannot prove or disprove the existence of a god, simply because there are no rules that define what this 'god' is. One could point out as many flaws as possible (and there are many) in the beliefs that 'god' exists and its existence would not be disproved, because 'god' could operate under completely different rules than humans can comprehend. Logic, common sense and science on the other hand, are completely human by design and as such they appear flawless and perfect to our mortal eyes. They govern everything that we know and understand, and when we discover something that we don't understand, we change the rules so that we can understand them. This makes logic and science essentially flawless by any human definition, because any flaws are simply patched up as we go along, so to speak. The existence of 'god' on the other hand, can be easily picked apart due to its many flaws. These flaws however, cannot be so easily stitched back together because to do so would be to admit that religion itself is a human construct, which we can just amend whenever we see fit. Science will ultimately prevail. Don't take this to mean that I condemn the idea of religion, far from it. If people need something to give them guidance and comfort in times of need, and that something happens to be religion, then so be it. These are just my views and I will stick by them, unless of course something big happens which completely changes my mind. Jeeeeeez that was an essay. :uhoh: Sorry if it was a bit all over the place, and didn't make sense in some parts. I'm tired and the last time I wrote anything like this was in secondary school. Also I haven't read the whole thread at the time of writing this so sorry if any part of my post is redundant.

every crush is like a white water rapid
Whatever you do, don't do this. Believe me, I've made the same mistake. In 'a few more weeks' you will still be thinking "Okay, I'll give it one more week..." and before you know it it will be too late. The only way you can resolve this situation is to just go for it. If you don't force yourself to do it now then you never will. What's the worst thing that could happen? This is exactly the kind of advice that my friends always give me, but I'm too shy/scared/cowardly/stupid to do it even though I know it's the only way. So basically, what I'm trying to say is: Don't be like me. Act now before it's too late. Here, I'll even give you some inspirational lyrics: "How can you know it if you don't even try?" "If you never try you'll never know" etc. Judging by your description of this guy, I'm sure he'll be flattered that you feel that way about him. Even if he doesn't feel the same way about you, he'll surely be understanding about it. If you've already spent a lot of time with him at college, then maybe you could ask him if he would like to go to your house. Watch a movie together, or play video games together, or something, whatever you both enjoy doing. If you both have a really great time, then that's a good sign. I'm sorry I can't really be much more help than this, but I hope this advice helps. :)

Now I'm really looking forward to The 2nd Law. I know people doubt Muse after The Resistance, but this one's shaping up to kick The Resistance's ass.

The reviewers have only listened to the album version of Follow Me, which is electronic and mixed by Nero. The song apparently originated as a full band rock song before Nero mixed it, so for all we know the live version could be completely different from the album version. edit: See: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqkSvJpl3Ug&feature=player_embedded]Muse - Follow Me (live extract) - YouTube[/ame]

Apparently Muse played Madness, Follow Me and Sign o' the Times (by Prince) at Taratata today. It's not being broadcast until the 28th though :\
