I don't think Dom gets enough credit for the drumming in this song. It's so perfect at each point in the song. How can he make the perfect fill every time?!
Honestly listened to countless versions of Chopin's Nocturne no 2 in my life but coming back to this song the way he plays the excerpt is the actual best in terms of pacing and little tricks
John Millthorpe Muse's interpretation of Chopin's Nocturne is very authentic and original but perhaps what makes it so great here is by how it works with the song as a whole. After the heavy militaristic theme it arrives like an epiphany; a nostalgic reflection of the bliss of youth... and we question ourselves, how did mankind ever come to this?
Matt's version of Chopin's nocture op. 9 no. 2 is my favourite of all time. Despite it not being complete, the way he put emotion in it is amazing. And the samples on the background really add to the song! It makes me want to cry everytime.
A very special CD. I'm glad I got it years ago. I was wondering if I could ask you a question? Do you know where Muse stands politically? They seem to know quite a lot about what's going on with the elites. They know about mk ultra and Eurasia. I was just wondering where they stand on a lot of this stuff and what they support?
Don't wanna sound like I'm purposefully trying to be a 'special snowflake', but... Muse are living geniuses. Matt Bellamy is such a beautiful composer, writer, musician in general... I love the theme to this song. I am a huge fan of Muse, Queen, and Orwell himself so logically this is one of my favourite songs (pieces?) by Muse. I've read Nineteen Eighty-Four as well as other novels by Orwell and I've fallen in love with the whole concept of the dystopian world. I'm 13 years old and sadly none of my peers have an appreciation for neither beautiful music like that of Matt Bellamy's nor the hard-hitting stories like those of George Orwell's. Forever a lonely snowflake :(

Muse are geniuses. They are channeling Freddy Mercury, Lawrence of Arabia and Chopin in a single song. It's beautiful. (BTW, It's Nocturnes, Opus 9 by Chopin).
The guitar lick is a direct tribute to Brian May's signature guitar sound and the "There can be only one" is a reference to The Highlander to which Queen contributed It's a Kind of Magic.

The first part of the final instrumental has the feel of the world in happy times, with children playing and laughing. The second, feels like war beginning with the sound of fighter jets, radio commands and the laughter is all gone. This music is perfect to go as a covering soundtrack to a chaotic scene of carnage. You can imagine a battle scene being played out to the piano. In fact, it hauntingly reminder me of the final scenes of Schindler's List. Absolutely amazing. ❤️
This is by far my favorite song from "The Resistance". It changes enough to keep it interesting, but not so much that it's so horribly mixed that it isn't defined.
With so many people comparing this song to Queen, it aches my soul everyday knowing ill never experience Freddy Mercury and his beautiful voice live. At least we have the next best thing, Matt Bellamy from Muse.
Exactly, I listened to this song a long time ago and today I listened to Chopin nocturnes, it sounded so familiar I had to look it up and go back here 😂
"Why split these states when THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE?" I'm a Queen fanatic first, so I remember hearing that for the first time and feeling this gigantic grin slap itself onto my face. The May-esque guitar harmonies, the intense vocals, the possible Highlander reference...Yup. :) :) :)
Hmm, I am looking through songs by Muse, and this one is really.. Intensive and just awesome. It reminds me of Queen songs. I really love the part with this.. Oriental piano (?), guitar and drums. It sounds amazing. I am falling in love with Muse's songs.
schizokaria. ♣ If you like their songs, try unintended, starlight, space dementia, endlessly, resistance, hyper chondriac music, butterflies and hurricanes.
Adarsh Jarangal I recognize (s?) this song, but I have never known a title of it, thanks! I listen to very different genres of music, Muse is the calmest probably. Mainly I listen to Architects, Bring me the Horizon (something like core), Marilyn Manson, System of a Down (kind of nu metal?) and Muse. I don't know many bands. But I love "I belong to you", "time is running out" and "Stockholm syndrome" by Muse, these are my favourites.
Just came to listen to this song because of what's happening right now in Ukraine. It fits perfectly. I'm so sad and hoping for freedom and peace for them.
You're not alone with this one. Time's up to get up, leave nationalities behind and unite as it was thought to be. At least that was one big goal when they first thought of and started the European union. The Euro was just meant to be a step towards a really unified Europe.
@@goswinschreck2654 I'm not so sure... It appears to me that "unification" actually means "control" through a massive central government above each people's sovereignty. This unification comes from top to bottom. We actually should unify our values and hearts as members of the same mankind. Not our governments.
@@danielsan1981mg depends on where the pressure to unify comes from. If the people are pressuring governments to unify that's perfectly fine. And your thought is the bad side of the medal no matter if countries are unified or devided. 🤷♂️

So no one else noticed the Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom reference at 1:33? They totally lifted "Parade of the Slave Children" - likely on purpose, as it comes right after the lyric "Must we do as we're told?" Brilliant. Also, I find it hilarious that the hugely obvious Queen riff at 1:16 coincides with the lyric "[Why split these states when] there can be only one!?" That's a veiled quote from Highlander, which included several songs by Queen. I love Muse so much...
Hey you, yes you, if you are listening to this song, congratulations, you have an excellent musical taste 😎. Thank you Muse. As many people here already said, this is the most Bohemian Rhapsody like song written in the 21st Century. I LOVE IT ❤️
This song should be a worldwide anthem. The text is a pledge against (proxy) wars and for global peace. Must we do as we're told? Must we participate in the wars the rich and powerful force upon us? What if it is war, but nobody goes there. Also the album The Resistance was a concept album dealing with topics from George Orwell's dystopian novel 1984 that deals with the suppression of Big Brother over the normal citizens. Muse is a genius.
That sample of the kids playing outside to innocent classical piano before getting strafed by the american "heroes" of global ZOG is the most evocative sample I've ever heard. Absolutely sickening. This is Muse's magnum opus.
3:42 First time, as young adult, that I cried listening to music. Muse incredibly enhances that masterpiece. I can't get bored of this song even years later.
tohopes Actually the answer is because it's so obvious it doesn't NEED to be mentioned. If we had a million comments talking about the queen comparisons (which there are plenty), then the comment section would be boring.
I love this song. "These wars just go on and on". Sadly that is so true. I love the message Muse illustrated with this album. There needs to be an uprising here in the U.S no doubt about it. Enough with greed, enough with corruption, enough with these unjust wars. I am so glad the released this album. It can really open peoples minds up if you think about it.
The whole album is actually themed around George Orwell's 1984, in which the world was in a actual perpetual state of war, it wasn't referring to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
actually in 1984 the world is separated into 3 countries which over all is a bad thing and considering this album is themed around 1984 it's easy to say that this song is anti globalization.
Jake Johnson Enough with greed, corruption, and unjust wars? You might as well say enough with hurricanes, earthquakes, and tsunamis. As much as nobody wants those things there is no combination of laws, no form of government, and no set of morals anybody could implement to solve these problems. Welcome to reality bro. Trust me, we all know it sucks.
@@theminuteman7611 Acho que os próprios países tem que saber lidar com seus problemas . Sempre achei essa coisa de governo unificado um erro que muitos ainda insistem em repetir .
I don’t know why, maybe it’s the way Matt sings it, but I love the “and do you want them, to go on and on and on...” the second interval down (re to do) sounds so beautiful.
Years after first hearing this song and first hearing the Chopin through it, I finally am taking piano lessons and learning the original nocturne. I was wondering why I kept wanting to play some of the rhythms and ornaments not as written, and coming back to this I see why-Matt made a few changes here and there to the melody. Nothing drastic, mind you, it’s still very much Chopin...but there’s a freedom, improvisational authenticity to Matt’s delivery. It’s almost as if he was playing a version of the piece that was passed on by ear rather than by sheet music, the way orally transmitted stories change slightly when told by different people. In the post-apocalyptic 1984 narrative that so heavily inspired this album, it’s like someone is playing the nocturne having heard it many times in years past, but the music has been burned by the government and now only exists in the player’s mind, with its little differences and creative freedom.

+Calum Mccabe So Muse, Queen, Chopin and Orwell walk into a bar and they say ouch.
Muse's Bohemian Rhapsody.
exactly, that's what I was thinking when I first heard it
listen to the Globalist and tell me again
yesss i thought the same...
I though about Queen too when I heard this song for the first time
Lol.
The Chopin's part with the children and then the planes give me shivers!
Me too its feel like we won the war by the end of time
@@jeflammering5620 it’s called colateral damage, I don’t think the kids survived
@@RaveInHell6030 Exactly
It reminds me alot of pink floyd, its like a story.
I like the part when the beast is calming down under the music
Poland '39-45 be like...
Here in 2022 and this song is more relevant than when it came out. 1984 was supposed to be a warning, not an instruction manual.
Here in 2024 and its coming to past😢
That's what I was thinking
It's literally resembling the world right now
October 2024 onward n upward
influences of Queen, George Orwell and Chopin at the end... I just love Muse... =)
Carla Ribeiro ...and Ravel
@@TheCygnusbass ...and Rachmaninov and Shostakovich... wondrous music...
And also arabic influence.
I found this out of nowhere and I love it
The bars following 2:54 are just incredible. This kind of gothic-egyptian hybrid.
It sounds more like gypsy-flamenco to me. It is very similar to Andalusia, I think.
Its called oriental sound if you guys want to name the sound ✌🏻
Exactly what I was thinking
@@evex3197 yep also it gives a small portion feeling from of şehrazat ''Scheherazade''. Western is familiar with it actually. It's a Disney figure also :)
You should listen to the soundtrack of Lawrence of Arabia, by Maurice Jarre ! I'm pretty sure you'll enjoy it.

Yeah, it's completely different than any other musician's interpretation, but it's simply better
I've always found his decision to play the harmonic chords in a straight rhythm interesting, I feel like Chopin's would be more rubato.
He totaly killed Chopin

Why split these states
When there can be only one
And must we do as we're told
Must still do as we're told

To be punished for unproven crimes
And we know that there's no one we can trust

Besides Queen and Chopin influences there’s a hint of Middle Eastern flare in the music. LOVEEEEEE 💕😍
This is very reminiscent of Queen!
***** Everyone thought that.
A masterpiece just like QUEEN
Am I the ONLY one who thinks that this sounds like queen!? It's like NO ONE else noticed and then commented about it.
Harry Dykhoff ikr its like no one else even knoes who queen is who listens to muse, why did NO ONE else comment about it..
tohopes Actually the answer is because it's so obvious it doesn't NEED to be mentioned. If we had a million comments talking about the queen comparisons (which there are plenty), then the comment section would be boring.
Ian Welch lol actually like 50 people have pointed it out, was being ironic..
tohopes Wayy more than 50 dude. Unless you mean on this page alone XD
Ian Welch Oh gosh you made me listen to the song again. How dare you. I like the Chopin piano at the end.
When the world comes to an end while playing this song. Then, Op9 No2 comes in. Damn, what a way to end everything peacefully.
i love the little piece of Nocturne💞Muse is a genius band omf👏
What's the name of the song from Noctrune?
Christian charles Nocturne in Eb op.9 No. 2 - Chopin.
What a moment to listen to this.
A masterpiece! Absolutely brilliant!
Obsessed with this song, lyrics and composition, literally music to my ears and it reminds me of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen.
I love this song. "These wars just go on and on". Sadly that is so true. I love the message Muse illustrated with this album. There needs to be an uprising here in the U.S no doubt about it. Enough with greed, enough with corruption, enough with these unjust wars. I am so glad the released this album. It can really open peoples minds up if you think about it.
The whole album is actually themed around George Orwell's 1984, in which the world was in a actual perpetual state of war, it wasn't referring to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
actually in 1984 the world is separated into 3 countries which over all is a bad thing and considering this album is themed around 1984 it's easy to say that this song is anti globalization.
Green Shaman I know the album is about 1984, I'm just saying the song can be interpreted more than one way. That's the beauty of music.
Jake Johnson Enough with greed, corruption, and unjust wars? You might as well say enough with hurricanes, earthquakes, and tsunamis. As much as nobody wants those things there is no combination of laws, no form of government, and no set of morals anybody could implement to solve these problems. Welcome to reality bro. Trust me, we all know it sucks.

5:36 "look mummy, there's a plane up in the sky"
Hello Sunshine I dig this Floyd reference
Yes and it drop a bom
there needs to be an epic edit of the dystopian world our future is heading towards and this is the track behind it.
Such a beautiful song.
I don’t know why, maybe it’s the way Matt sings it, but I love the “and do you want them, to go on and on and on...” the second interval down (re to do) sounds so beautiful.
Escuché esta canción hace mucho tiempo. Luego crecí y escuché a Chopin. Inmediatamente recordé esta canción después de haberla olvidado, lo mejor!
This is my first time listening to this album. The childrens voices got me the most. Thank you Mr Muse for the upload xXx
Still sends chills down my spine. Whoa what a song!

Years after first hearing this song and first hearing the Chopin through it, I finally am taking piano lessons and learning the original nocturne. I was wondering why I kept wanting to play some of the rhythms and ornaments not as written, and coming back to this I see why-Matt made a few changes here and there to the melody. Nothing drastic, mind you, it’s still very much Chopin...but there’s a freedom, improvisational authenticity to Matt’s delivery. It’s almost as if he was playing a version of the piece that was passed on by ear rather than by sheet music, the way orally transmitted stories change slightly when told by different people. In the post-apocalyptic 1984 narrative that so heavily inspired this album, it’s like someone is playing the nocturne having heard it many times in years past, but the music has been burned by the government and now only exists in the player’s mind, with its little differences and creative freedom.
If you want a little fun fact chopin was famous for improvising, and when he was playing his pieces, he always make little change like matt !
@@levraidunoob I did not know that but it doesn’t surprise me in the slightest, and that makes this recording all the better!
The Queen influences are strong with this one.
This is probably my favorite Muse album. I love all of their albums, but I love this one the most.
Queen has Bohemian Rhapsody
Radiohead has Paranoid Android
Muse has United States of Eurasia
He loved Big Brother.
Stephen Santiago Maybe he just heard about it...
This song is actually legitmate to the current situation
That hook. That god damn hook has got to be the most underrated hook in Muse's entire discography.
Esto es demasiado bueno para ser real
Chopin just adds a magical touch to an already fantastic song. Great job Muse.
Just finished 1984, I'm so glad I can now fully comprehend this album
