I recently read an interview where Matt said he was so damn nervous throughout this whole gig, Blackout was the only moment where he could relax because the focus shifted to the acrobats. He said he also looked at the acrobats as if he were another spectator (0:51), and momentarily forgot he was the one performing.
That’s what I noticed while watching this. He’s a human like us all, and it honestly makes me feel so bad for him reading about that. Dom said he found him crying on the floor before a gig. He’s just a nervous lil dude.
Matt Bellamy explain that the song is about life being too short, written from the point of view of a lover on their deathbed, looking back at a lifetime of a "love too good to last".
"Blackout" Don't kid yourself And don't fool yourself This love's too good to last And I'm too old to dream Don't grow up too fast And don't embrace the past This life's too good to last And i'm too young to care Don't kid yourself And don't fool yourself This life could be the last And we're too young to see
Matt Bellamy is a musical genius and the most gifted modern day performer ever. Muse without a doubt is the most exciting live band ever. And Matt Bellamy will be in the history books as one of the greatest musical performers of all time. He will be like Beethoven in a 100 yrs time. For the rest of human history the world will know who Matt Bellamy is.
When I am no longer in this world, I want this and other great music from Muse played at my Celebration of Life......what magic they have! Just WOW! Penda
I love how at the beginning he holds the mic to his head and almost seems to be saying a little prayer or something, or maybe just getting into the zone by channeling the universe and it's musical brilliance so he can play and sing it as well as he did. All of their music has so much intelligence, emotion and passion its awe-inspiring to watch them.
+The Hudless Gamer I wouldn't necessarily say that's true. Most bands who are truly musical are way better live than in the studio - the studio recordings are never the ultimate versions of a song, more of a template to be built upon in the live arena. Any band that just sets out to replicate live what they put to record isn't worth seeing.
Muse are outrageously good. I hadn't listen to them for ages and came back to them recently and forgot just how amazing they are. Silly me for forgetting.
This is pure magic. From 2:20 on... I can't name another guitarist in our generation that can single handedly captivate an entire stadium audience the way Bellamy does. This is truly legendary of a Hendrix capacity.
This is... No existing words (in any taken vocabulary, or any existing for that matter) could possibly describe how this makes me feel... Every note, every strum, every reverb, every Fuzz Factory shenanigan, every breath he takes in between those little supernovas we call lyrics, every ... I am left speechless
Esta canción es una de mis favoritas de Muse ,me hace sentir un mar de emociones, me da alegría y tristeza al mismo tiempo, hace sentir mi corazón en paz
this makes me cry like a baby 1st this is the most beautiful and touching song ever 2nd this was the most wonderful concert ever and i wasn't there 3rd matt's voice is so sweet it would make my dog cry
This just solidifies the fact that these guys are masters. They can blow you away with speed and complexity or with slow and simple. Favorite moment 3:39, I die every time.
The very sense of music is that have no rules, no ages, no bounderys, nothing can stop music, is above all our senses and with music u can even make a god dance!
I almost forgot how beautiful is LIFE ,LOVE, LAUGH , AND MUSIC ! and at the end of all i wrote here, i can't find materialism don't forget to know yourself and love all love all !!! Thank you Muse!!!
The atmosphere in the stadium.... It's quite romantic....Lovely as always... The first time i saw matt's jacket my mouth popped open because my bro has one that is really like his jacket and since then i am begging him to give this to me.... Love you matt chris and dom....
This to me is such a deeply personal song because Bellamy is singing about the question which goes through everyone's mind at some point in their lives - "Don't kid yourselves, this life could be the last." I get goosebumps every time I hear it and I do think it is their best song.
People bang on about Queen and the music they made and draw comparisons between Bellamy and Mercury but, truth is, Queen weren't capable of this kind of genius. This is next level stuff. It's just too weird and different for main stream. That, and the fact that Bellamy's voice touches you in ways no other can makes, for me at least, muse the better of the two bands. And by some considerable margin.
Hi from 2023 and i fucked up then i moved to here and i'm listening this masterpiece show over and over, i wish i could be in there. Please make the absolution tour and come turkey we need Muse.
Having been an insomniac for the past 3 years, I then found Muse, and this song and it somehow puts my mind and body at complete rest. Listen to it every night to send me to sleep. (In a good way, it's not a boring song or anything)
It was 03'-04' somewhere in there. Absolution had just come out, i got tickets to see them in a club in Tucson, Arizona with 200 other fortunate souls. Matt's guitar was on his back while playing piano, switching back and forth. It was magnificent.🤘
Today I decided that I should start listening to muse’s discography. NME said that absolution was their best album, so I startled listening to it. Found this gem. Just wow.
That guitar solo is out of this world. Bellamy describes this as a perfect performance..... can’t argue with that. Hands down the best live music experience of my life.
3:37 Everytime I hear the song and I sing along, I try to hit those notes. Every time. I never do it, but that's how the song sounds to me. Because of THIS recording.
Don't kid yourself And don't fool yourself This love's too good last And I'm too old to dream, yeah Don't grow up too fast And don't embrace the past This life's too good to last And I'm too young to care Don't kid yourself And don't fool yourself This life could be the last And we're too young to see
Sublime ! J'ai pas les mots pour dire ce que je ressens après avoir entendu cette version...juste beaucoup d'émotion, un très beau moment de musique :)
this is one of the best things that ever happened to humanity
How right you are . x
I've seen them live over 6 times now, really wish I was at this gig though!
Sliced breads got a slight edge
My wedding song.
i agree
I recently read an interview where Matt said he was so damn nervous throughout this whole gig, Blackout was the only moment where he could relax because the focus shifted to the acrobats. He said he also looked at the acrobats as if he were another spectator (0:51), and momentarily forgot he was the one performing.

How is it possible that their album versions are great, but the live versions are soooooooo much better????? Best band ever!
Very few artists are better live like The Cure and A Perfect Circle!
because musicians do that
Radiohead in basement
Only Matt Bellamy can silence the Wembley to play Blackout... They have magic in their music.
'the wembley'
Pretty sure they just removed the audio from the audience is all
Carolina García i
@@danrawlings504 - No, they were hypnotized by the beauty of this music.
Not magic,,, muse's sound penetrated their brain,,,
Thousands of people just stood still admiring Matts guitar solo. Quality. Wish I'd been there
2011jakew They were musemerized.
Without bragging, I was lucky enough to be one of those people. A large amount of us were reduced to tears
GOING TO LEEDS FESTIVAL!!! They wont play this most likely but at least im finally ticking something off the bucket list :)
2011jakew I've had to sell two sets of tickets to Muse due to health problems. LEEDS, wow. You got it going on. I see eargasmsin your future.
Thanks haha and sorry to hear that :(
Matt Bellamy explain that the song is about life being too short, written from the point of view of a lover on their deathbed, looking back at a lifetime of a "love too good to last".
Really? Amazing.
And too old to dreeeeeeaaaaaaammmmmm yeeeaaaahhhh ooohhh yeaaaaahhhh uuuuuuuuuu
Atheist's lullaby
"Blackout"
Don't kid yourself
And don't fool yourself
This love's too good to last
And I'm too old to dream
Don't grow up too fast
And don't embrace the past
This life's too good to last
And i'm too young to care
Don't kid yourself
And don't fool yourself
This life could be the last
And we're too young to see
After this I think I can confirm that muse performs the best lives on earth
2:30 is the best guitar effect, and best guitar solo ever
Then you have not heard Invincible :P
Haha that's amazing as well! Just this song connects with me more! It's more a personal reason for liking the solo not just the fact it is AMAZING!
2011jakew It's a built in Fuzz Factory like what uses in a lot of solos and riffs
2011jakew Check out the Glastonbury version of this song :D

Axiomatic truth there.
They are for the Ages.
Not gonna lie, I cried when they played this.
Gets one in the core every time. Peerless.
glad im not the only one
this does make one cry...
This song was way beyond it's time.
This comfort zone is exactly what is happening today.
goosebumps every single time i watch this.
yeah
Juventud
More goosebumps if you watch blackout live Glastonbury 2004
Yuup
this solo is a fucking GOLD
Thunder- Suckle Fuzz Canyon why do u say gold ? that saying is from like the stone age u must. be ancient lol
I don't know why but the extra notes from 3:17 to 3:23 makes me feel so emotional, sad and happy at the same time, Muse songs are magic :)
I know man I get so emmotional when I hear this song!!!!!
kylee lines me too, but this version is more emotional because the extra notes :D
+Enrique Shrinking That part gets me emotional... makes me shed a tear every time.
Daniel Aldana Me too, I love the HAARP because they played this song and well, the setlist is amazing
IlIIIlllIlII Well, that's a point, guy, it would be incredible if the extra notes were in the cd version too.
Still here in 2024 watching this for a pick me up. That guitar solo is the best thing that's happened to Wembley since Freddie at live aid ❤
That ending to the song just sounds completely perfect. The length the notes are held, the pitch of the notes, everything.
Good God... 7 years later and it still makes me tear up every time. So perfect up til that beautiful fade out riff at the end. Never, ever gets old.
After life. Eternal and timeless. He always defines life and death.
When I am no longer in this world, I want this and other great music from Muse played at my Celebration of Life......what magic they have! Just WOW!
Penda
Imagined exactly the same thing....
Do u still alive, mam?
This is how Blackout should be played!
Fuzz Factory is love...
Fuzz Factory is life...
Live by the fuzz factory
+AlbertoMuse best purchase of my life
Has that guitar got a fuzz factory built in or is he just turning the guitar volume at 2:30?
+Liam Gilmour yeah its built in and he has the stab and comp controls on the front under the bridge
Long Live Fizz... I'm sorry, Fuzz...
I love his face when he puts up the guitar. Like he almost has to cry. I just don't have words for it. I just love it. Can't say anything more.
I love how at the beginning he holds the mic to his head and almost seems to be saying a little prayer or something, or maybe just getting into the zone by channeling the universe and it's musical brilliance so he can play and sing it as well as he did. All of their music has so much intelligence, emotion and passion its awe-inspiring to watch them.
My childhood was all muse. All my obsessive daydreaming was me closing my eyes and listening to Muse. Nostalgia hits hard 🖤
This performance and song is pure magic, to be there was a moment I’ll never forget
I'm only 13 and I already have a funeral song this is the most beautiful thing in the world
Rebel305Leeds At your stage right now
JESUS FUCK, and I thought the studio version was already perfect. This is more than flawless.
+Kari Paez Only group to ever perform consistently better live than in studio.
to be honest. Muse in concert is just majestic.
+The Hudless Gamer I wouldn't necessarily say that's true. Most bands who are truly musical are way better live than in the studio - the studio recordings are never the ultimate versions of a song, more of a template to be built upon in the live arena. Any band that just sets out to replicate live what they put to record isn't worth seeing.
+Adam you must be a lot of fun at parties
bruno gonzalez Apparently you're new to the concept of conversation.
Muse are outrageously good. I hadn't listen to them for ages and came back to them recently and forgot just how amazing they are. Silly me for forgetting.
My funeral song, along with starlight and unintended. I just love the lyrics and the beauty it's played.
I JUST LOVE MUSE!!
And also Soldier's poem.
Only MUSE can make the whole Wembley stadium quiet for a while...
2:30 for those that are new to the song, please adjust your volume to 11. Thank you.
This is pure magic. From 2:20 on... I can't name another guitarist in our generation that can single handedly captivate an entire stadium audience the way Bellamy does. This is truly legendary of a Hendrix capacity.
This song makes me feel...all,this song is the meaning of the life, what a poem
This is... No existing words (in any taken vocabulary, or any existing for that matter) could possibly describe how this makes me feel... Every note, every strum, every reverb, every Fuzz Factory shenanigan, every breath he takes in between those little supernovas we call lyrics, every ... I am left speechless
Giedrius Stasiulis
One of his best live solos.
2:46 Sexy bend, sweet slide and a fat power chord…. 3:17 the bends 🔥
Now i get the cover of Absolution... it's the people that went to the concert ascending to greatness after hearing this on live.
When he does that slow slide at beginning of solo I had an eargasm and had an out of body experience. Could this version be any more perfect?
This song makes you want to go to everyone you love and care about and hug them, and tell them how much they mean to you.
I was there! My heart stopped when I saw this amazingness and still stops when I watch it again.
Esta canción es una de mis favoritas de Muse ,me hace sentir un mar de emociones, me da alegría y tristeza al mismo tiempo, hace sentir mi corazón en paz
Legal saber que não sou o único a sentir todas essas oscilações de emoção e existe gente de todo mundo com o mesmo gosto 🇧🇷🤟
@@aluiziooliveira2867considero que soy alguien parecido amigo, un saludo desde México
Best song ever... I hope they will played this song at STADE DE FRANCE in July of 8th 2023 !!!
I dont think so Bro 😟, maybe de voice Is the problem, he doesnt have the same range
this makes me cry like a baby
1st this is the most beautiful and touching song ever
2nd this was the most wonderful concert ever and i wasn't there
3rd matt's voice is so sweet it would make my dog cry
One of the best songs, one of the best performances, and of course, the best feelings, I love MUSE
chills down my spine, this song is a masterpiece and it was a privilege to here this song live!
Sooo jealous! Glad you enjoyed it
I envy you, I've never seen them live
This just solidifies the fact that these guys are masters. They can blow you away with speed and complexity or with slow and simple. Favorite moment 3:39, I die every time.
Absolutely epic.
At 2:30 this goes from amazing to oh my fucking god. All these years later I’m still coming back to it.
The very sense of music is that have no rules, no ages, no bounderys, nothing can stop music, is above all our senses and with music u can even make a god dance!
I almost forgot how beautiful is LIFE ,LOVE, LAUGH , AND MUSIC ! and at the end of all i wrote here, i can't find materialism don't forget to know yourself and love all love all !!!

One amazing band, not afraid to take chances, try something different, and achieve the amazing. Great stuff
Why does this song make me cry........ so beautiful
Having been an insomniac for the past 3 years, I then found Muse, and this song and it somehow puts my mind and body at complete rest. Listen to it every night to send me to sleep. (In a good way, it's not a boring song or anything)
ent watched this for like 5 years lol. that solo took my soul, gave it back then said sorry
It was 03'-04' somewhere in there. Absolution had just come out, i got tickets to see them in a club in Tucson, Arizona with 200 other fortunate souls. Matt's guitar was on his back while playing piano, switching back and forth. It was magnificent.🤘
If you close your eyes, it feels like you're floating...beautiful!
This song, this performance... it's just amazing.
notice that the violins start playing when matt puts the mic to his head, even his thoughts are great:D
Today I decided that I should start listening to muse’s discography. NME said that absolution was their best album, so I startled listening to it. Found this gem. Just wow.
Oh Matt. Your voice is so heavenly
It’s 4 am, this song has a special meaning during this hard pandemic times. “This life could be the last and we’re too young to see”
I'm 15 right now, and can't go on my own to London yet, but when I can, I'm one of the persons that buys a ticket if they play in Wembley.
That guitar solo is out of this world. Bellamy describes this as a perfect performance..... can’t argue with that. Hands down the best live music experience of my life.
TEARS OF JOY ...
My anxiety calms down Everytime I hear this
Thank you Muse for keeping me sane
Now you've made me cry again.
3:37 Everytime I hear the song and I sing along, I try to hit those notes. Every time. I never do it, but that's how the song sounds to me. Because of THIS recording.
That part alone makes this the best version of Blackout, and one of the best songs in Absolution
This is the new classic music
Sweet melody and... the guitar of Matt is very... strong... Sweet, sweet 😊Uhhh 👋...
One of their best live performances ever!!!
There are tears on my eyes...
+Maria Ayanyan/Muse Fan Tears in the heart and the soul
Muse, you´re essential to my existence....!
Don't kid yourself
And don't fool yourself
This love's too good last
And I'm too old to dream, yeah
Don't grow up too fast
And don't embrace the past
This life's too good to last
And I'm too young to care
Don't kid yourself
And don't fool yourself
This life could be the last
And we're too young to see
the most beautiful song that has ever existed......
I LOVE MUSE FOREVER
What the hell are those 50 thinking to dislike this masterpiece, ha?
is this thom yorke?
My favorite part of comments like this is when someone else dislikes it so the number is wrong.
Its tearing up the soul.. maybe some people are afraid of there insides ?
Heidi van den Boogaard Means i love it ....... just love it..
María Lizarazo love Thom :')
It's so beautiful, I wanna cry and cry........
The guitar solo tears my soul apart.
Matt looks like an angel
I was there and remember the girls next to us being in floods of tears witnessing this performance
Nice to see this top 1,000,000 views like it deserves. Top song
This is one of the most beautiful things in the world
This is beautiful
and hope the 18 can enjoy it in future
Dopo anni, ogni tanto mi rifugio in questo video per provare delle emozioni che solo questo live sa darmi. Vi amo immensamente.
Io come te. Mi dà una sensazione di pace e commozione e meraviglia che è difficilissimo descrivere ❤
Love this era of BH&R...
One of the best from Muse
Muse is all about performance. It's never JUST music. :3
The wails from that guitar solo haunt my dreams
Dont kid yourself. Dont fool yourself. This life could be the last. And we're too young to see.
~genius
0:11 is me pressing play on this for the thousandth time knowing it's going to hurt me just as bad as every other time....
Best guitar solo ever
No quiero morir sin antes escuchar esta canción en vivo.
God, if I could do that, I don't think I'd ever stop
MATTS GUITAR SOLO! FUCKING INCREDIBLE!!!
This song makes me cry
I was There 😊!! Great Band ❤😊😮
People at their very best. Muse lovers.
Sublime ! J'ai pas les mots pour dire ce que je ressens après avoir entendu cette version...juste beaucoup d'émotion, un très beau moment de musique :)
This would be the song that will be resonated in my funeral
