started learning guitar in lockdown 2020, but my music taste has completely changed since then. my mum also gave me her old electric guitar (which just so happens to be the exact one used in the video lmao) since she doesn’t play anymore. muse quickly became one of my favourite artists, and i’m now trying to learn my favourite songs. i can play new born and feeling good on piano, so i thought i’d give guitar a go… and this is my favourite song so wish me luck!!!
4:21 if your having tricky with this part try going from your first finger on B then middle finger to G and then your first finger to the D so your kind of walking your 1st and middle finger up the one fret. That’s how I do it.
Thank you for this tutorial. I learned to play this years ago and totally forgot how to play it. Now I want to re-learn the tune your guidance has helped me pick the tune quickly. Often, if I’m struggling to play a tune by ear this channel a first search for me. THANKS :0)
Great video as always. Keep it up! Just something I would add though, if you play it in drop d tuning you can play during the verse. What you do is set your guitar to drop d and then play the 6th 5th and 4th strings on the 5th fret, then play the same strings open, and then 4th fret and repeat. The drop d tuning also makes it much easier to play one really weird chord just before the chorus hits. Thats just if you dont have a band and are playing by yourself. Great video!
thanx carl, great lesson as always. matthew bellamy is a pretty amazing guitarist, too bad the newer muse stuff doesn't rock like the old muse. origins of symmetry and absolution were both amazing albums....
+JJ Lille yeah ill check drones out, they kind of lost me with the resistance, that album had no balls aside from like 2 or 3 songs, which is fine but i like the muse that rocks! absolution is my favorite muse album by a mile, even the soft stuff on that album is amazing! stockholm syndrome is one of the most original and brilliant rock songs of the last 20 years in rock!
Amazing lesson Carl, thank you! Another Muse song that's for some reason ignored on TH-cam is Falling away with you, it's an amazing fingerstyle tune and I would love a lesson on that!
+ GuitarLessons365Song Can you please do a lesson of Muse "Survival" I promise that this song won't disappoint. Its a masterpiece. I suggest listening to prelude first because both prelude and survival connect. So if you have the time to do it that would would be awesome. And I'm only asking because your the best teacher on TH-cam:)
I don't even play electric guitar, I want to learn but yk being a jobless teen with a mom who would kill me for the noise won't let me XD I'm getting a job this summer though, can't wait to get me a 3rd instrument! I play flute and piccolo in marching band rn
I just realized the chorus is a copy of Bodies from Smashing Pumpkins! Wow... Love both songs, but didn't pay attention to the chorus in Plug in Baby. On Pumpkins side it's core riff of the whole song, and they play it in drop C# (drop D + half step down) - so one can play the power cord easy with a single finger staying on the top 3 strings, and go 3, 7, 2 to play what would normally be G, B, F#, instead of the B power cord with root on A string. Also the drop allows the switch to 2, 0, 5 reaching the low D (or rather C#) power cord which isn't possible otherwise. The songs are much different though, and that guitar part in Plug in Baby isn't as core to the song as the one in Bodies - in the former the guitar disappears in the mix with other instruments and voice being quite loud so it's not that obvious that it's practically a plagiarism (even down to the rhythm if I'm not mistaken).

coming back to a video that i already attempted and failed as a naive beginner and getting that hang of it almost straight away is a great feeling
Exactly what happened to me too
I’m that naive beginner 😇
One of the best feelings as a guitar player
I love that feeling 😅
Keep trying until it comes out!
Having trouble playing this song? Matthew Bellamy can play it while running. Has that helped your morale?
Sam Vimes While running AND jumping.
While running and jumping is nothing... You guys never saw him playing it while spinning around and behind his head without missing a beat?
But Matt Bellamy is not human!!
Puts things into perspective thats for sure. lol
You puny mortals. He’s obviously SCP 079 that hacked into a robot and created its own human camouflage!
Deserves mo views. He's fast and straight to the point than others

i love all their albums including the new ones. i guess u haven’t heard thought contagion, blockades, reapers, defector, etc.
Amazing lesson Carl, thank you!
Another Muse song that's for some reason ignored on TH-cam is Falling away with you, it's an amazing fingerstyle tune and I would love a lesson on that!
Thanks Carl, great lesson as always
Im a bass player but this is awesome, idc is a guitar riff, imma learn it on bass lol
I'm a guitar player, but I learned hysteria's bassline because why not
Splendid stuff!! Thanks 🎸👍😎
That rise of your eye brows on 35 seconds in lets us all know this is not as simple as it looks at first! Oh well here goes. : )
solid riff
Nice, personally I don't use the pinky on the 2nd note, seems more easy & smooth.

Thank you real man! I understand all Parts !
Thank you very much....nailed it!
영어로 설명하시는데도 배우는게 빠르고 정말 감사합니다!
Fascinating
so clean!!!
Hahaaaaaaa I am not skilled enough. I’ve been playing for like a week now haha. One day though. One day I’ll play this killer riff
I have been playing just a freeking month and Im trying yo play this
did you play this killer riff
Did you learn it yet 😂
Great lesson.. nice video.. many thanks

Hey past me, it's been 11 months and yeah we've got a job and have for 7 almost 8 months that we love. I'm picking up our guitar today 🩷
I'm following Grant's footsteps
Was it succesful?
I learned to play this song only downpicking...now I gotta do alternate picking fml
For me alt picking this song is way easier than downpicking
@@macdadydoo569 for me it's the fretting thats the hardest
@@londonwatson7342 fretting is super simple on this song. Its almost repetive with the finger movements.
@@macdadydoo569 way to be a cockhead to learning guitarists
Matt himself down picks, i think you're good unless you wanna practice alternate

do the day that never comes, please
Hi! Thanks for the tutorial. I wanted to ask you what pedal are you using for distortion? Greetings from Chile!
Thank you for this. How could I play the verses ? :)
hey carl! good job! whats the picking pattern for this song, i cant seem to get my picking up in speed. keep up the great work!
I'm sure you can do it however but I just do down picking and it works great for me
Are u a beginner? Because if u r that means your pretty much slow
I haven't attempted this song yet, but usually down-up-down-up picking us the best way to go! That goes for most songs actually.
It's alternate picking.
Somewhat neoclassical
than you!!!🎸🎸🎸🤘
I've been watching for five years!!! Your the greatest teacher in the WORLD! I owe you a lot of money, can I pay you with crypto?
3:19
Nice
Tabs could really help! Makes it clear what you are saying.
please do new born
DSM Studios I’d be so happy if he did new born oh my god
oof or Assassin
What power chords are used in the chorus?
what are you talking about? did you even watch the video?
What scale is it?
What about albatross by Fleetwood Mac
Sheet music?
Please make tutorial alter bridge one day remains
if u listen on .5 speed he sounds drunk
If you play it at 2x he sounds fast
Maxwell Cunningham LooL
😂😂😂
You don’t say?
Lmao why did this make me laugh so hard
Carl Brown is the best!!!
The speed of this is the problem for me especially the sweep picking part
Niiiiiice!!!!
the oral cigarette - kizukeyo baby
Doesn't he use a whammy bar or fuzz factory
le cambrioleur He doesn't have those.
Yes, Matthew uses a Fuzz Factory
Tiago Trindade Actually the Fuzz Factory is already inside his guitar, the phaser Mxr 90 too
**nice**

Here because of the Trash Taste episode about Music 🙏
So Far Away Avenged Sevenfold please
Tabs for the chorus?
Power chords, G, B, F#
Great first half, having trouble with the power chords. You don't into a whole lot of detail with finger positioning!
Tabs?
I can do It kinda just not accurately and very slow
ok i go back to Wonderwall...
