- I binged Muse as a young Elizabeth way too much. I find Matt Bellamy's voice divine, and know a LOT of their earlier works. When I saw this was released, well, you can imagine the amount of giddiness. This song is about standing your ground against bullies, and I couldn't be more on board with this message!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Muse for the fifty five thousanth time, but the first time hearing "Won't Stand Down”.

You should react to and(/or, if you've already seen it) breakdown epitaph by king crimson
Hi you unknown charismatic and beautiful woman. I never ever expected to hear about Muse again, but I'm happy to be wrong and also happy to see how this quite strong piece of music hit you.
Seeing Knights of cydonia from Muse live with a crowd of 100.000+ who sing along with the lyrics is one of the best live experiences of my life!
Knights of Cydonia live is a life changing experience
It always makes me sad because it means the show is over 😭.
There’s no denying, Matt is a generational song writer. You can love or hate MUSE but the talent he has is not something that is surpassed. One of the greatest. Then there’s their live show……
I don't hate them at all. I take back what I said about that song they did when it's not autotuned. I did an apology video on wrongfully ranting about it
It's my fav rock group band and Matt is my fav rock singer and composer
The live shows are ridiculous.
Wait, there's people who hate Muse?? The unique thing about Muse to me is how people who like vastly different genres come together and appreciate their music. I've had multiple partners where Muse was literally the only band we both liked.
They are not afraid to try different stuff
Probably one of the best bands I've heard live. And I was amazed by the diversity of the crowd, there were goths and dudes wearing cannibal corpse shirts mixed in with 70 year old ladies and middle aged men that look like they only like beer and acdc. Was wonderful
Absolutely! I had the same experience at their concerts. Extremely diverse audience. The only other artist I've seen live with as much variation in fans was Nick Cave and The bad Seeds.
Oh yeah, that's a nice point. I saw them once, in summer 2019, during the Simulation Theory world tour. And what can I say, I did expect the audience to be some 18 y/o dudes and girls, some 90's kids, maybe some metalheads too, but no no no - there was everybody. All the aforementioned? Check. 15 y/olds? Check. Actual elders? Check. A LOT of just middle-aged people? Check. Crazy metalheads, punks, emos? Check. Very classy, well-dressed people? Check. So incredible to be somehow melding all these different humans as your fanbase. Muse does truly amaze!
@@ravciozo2137 There are no boundaries in appreciation of true talent.
Watching Elizabeth have a honest “fangirl” moment over Muse …is truly endearing to me!
This song after several plays leaves me wanting more …the way it should be with great compositions…but how big of a let down will it be if this is a lonely single and not a suite of sound direction for an entire album!!
rumours are that this single is part of there next album ...and this is not the heaviest song on the album 🔥🔥❤😀👍 , i can't wait
This song is the first single to their newest album and like others have said, it is meant to only get heavier.
They just dropped a vid most likely showcasing the album cover.
It would be great to hear your analysis of Matts voice from a live performance at some point even if you do know the song.
Like Microcuts or Citizen Erased from Hullabaloo.
Their live stuff is really impressive, he jumps around, sings and plays almost on que
“New born” please… pretty please…
Each single song by Muse is great, but I really really would like to hear your opinion about songs from Hullabaloo, like Shrinking Universe, Microcuts (or any other!)
may i suggest do we need this from a live 1999 performance? it's a b side and it's live version is raw and garagey and just rad...
Matt’s voice is a siren to me. Your description of his sound “like he’s crying”…is what I haven’t been able to articulate when I’m raving about him. You nailed it girl.
Love this band. As disappointed as I am that I won't see more of your reactions to their older stuff, I'm glad you haven't been missing out on them for all these years. To me Muse is a modern day Queen. Same level of care in composition, experimentation, and talent.
Yes finally, Muse!! I've been a huge fan for about 12 years! Their cover of Feeling Good is underrated. Also for some more interesting vocals, I'd say Micro Cuts or Showbiz. My favorite is Sunburn
I LOVE THAT COVER! Their entire catalogue is so incredible…
That's my favourite version! In my opinion better than the original!
yesssss! I long time muse fan... I discovered in 2006 and have been a die hard fan ever since, fav album origin of symmetry hands down...
Showbiz and Shrinking Universe are some of my favorite vocal performances from Matt.
I walked down the aisle to that cover 😊
Even if you have already heard it, I'd still love a reaction to Micro Cuts live at Le Zenith from their Hullabaloo live album. What an insane performance that is!
THIS 1000000x OVER
Yes yes yes!
I second this
That whole show is sensational
Great call. That is a great track
I'm relatively new to Muse - my 23 year old kid turned me on to them - and am so thankful to see this video, Elizabeth, and to know that this band is still being listened to and still creating new music for people like you and I and your other viewers to enjoy.
i wish i had people in my life as passionate about music as you are. For now, i'll settle with your youtube channel :)
Aww, thank you Joey. I hope one day someone in your life becomes as passionate about music as well. For now, that person is YOU in all of their lives!
@@TheCharismaticVoice What a positive and inspiring response Elizabeth, I like that. I shall remember that when I wish people in my life to be like minded :)
I hate that so many people don't share my enthusiasm for music... and no one ever heard the cool things I hear!
man, those first few notes make me think its going to do the "take on me" melody for a min.
muse was thefirst band I ever saw when I was like 10. Still one of the best performances I've seen
Micro cuts is the one. It would be a great watch.
Thank you for sharing your most incredible analysis of Matt crafting his own personal talent. Muse is underrated and been a fan for many years. Like others have said, their live shows are intensely authentic and on a higher lever of greatness. The lyrics too speak directly to truths. Sweetness to thy ears and emotional sensitivities have perked up just listening to this new one. Thank you!
Muse is my favourite band hands down, i've seen them live 4 times and a lot of my best gig memories are from their shows and honestly, finding out you're a huge Muse fan and geek out over them as much as I do has just made me love you even more than i already do! (in a platonic way :P) This song spoke to me on so many levels and just being able to rock out to Muse again has revitalized me, it's like it was something I needed that I didn't even know I needed until I heard it. Honestly headbanging to that breakdown is a lot of fun! :D
Love the video, love the reaction! It was an absolute delight to watch you geek out this much :)
Muse is a great band. Talented musicians who aren’t afraid to mess around with their sound.
This new song is an awesome mix of a pop, almost dubstep, sound on the verses with the amazing metal sound that comes in for the chorus. The transitions between the two different sounds is perfect.
The “won’t stand down” metal scream near and at the end reminded me a lot of Randy Blythe from Lamb of God, only in a somewhat higher register.
I absolutely love how passionate you are about music and to react to my favourite group the way you did I learnt so much! Thank you!
Soldier’s Poem by Muse has some of the most beautiful and interesting vocal harmonies. The interplay between lead and backup vocals is brilliant
Yeah, Matt and Chris's voices are perfect for each other.
And the transition into Invincible my favorite song post 2000
Hi Elizabeth, I loved this new Muse song and performance. The MV's production was outstanding, and I enjoyed Muse's return to their roots w/ some overdriven guitar effects/riffs and distorted bass sounds. Matt Bellamy has such a unique tone to his voice, that he can sing any song and you would know it was him. Thank you, Elizabeth!!! 💙
Thank you, Kirby! The production on this is AMAZING, and I wish one day I could talk to Matt about it, his voice and so much more!

@@TheCharismaticVoice you have a large following, I'm surprised you don't do Grace VanderWaal
You're the only reaction person I dont mind who pauses a lot, because I feel like im learning from your breakdowns , the 1234 part you did and then when you got to the 5 was really a cool breakdown, hope you do more Muse songs 👍👍
As much as I agree just wanna jump in as drummer quickly: it doesn't change to 5. She started counting in the wrong place which threw her off, it stays in 4 throughout the song. Easy mistake to make, still great analysis.
I like pauses; I don't like it when I keep looking forward to the chorus hitting only to be repeatedly frustrated.
There's the analysis element of the video, then the timing of that for the emotional flow of the song. I'm not sure how that can be best balanced... I can only say transition moments are important.
Still love the videos overall though.
Can we just appreciate the fact that Muse did a breakdown in their song and came back to their roots?
Great song and reaction!
Nothing about the breakdown has anything to do with their roots. I can't think of anything from Showbiz, OOS, or even Absolution that's remotely close to this. You could argue about the drop tuning of Citizen Erased, but it's just not the same. The closest it would come to that era would be the interlude on Citizen Erased from the 2004 era, for example Glastonbury.
What the dude above me said. The guitar riff right before the chorus definitely reminds me of something Muse would write when they were more guitar-centric (I don't say heavy because they weren't heavy, really. They just had crunchy tuning), but the breakdown is entirely new.
@@Rhythmic1274 ignoring the technicalities of it, if it reminds somebody of Muses roots then so it is. As much as people want to break music down into a science at its core its a subjective experience and we all will interpret it differently. Sometimes you just need to let people enjoy things. With all due respect
Well, when you see that adorably goofy tooth and tongue smile from Mrs. Zharoff, you know it's going to be fun, or should I say a-muse-ing! Also, isn't that Jeremy Irons from Time Machine? I do like the thematic connection with today's reaction as well! Todays reaction was about cancel culture, which is a form of bullying. Here we have a song about standing up to bullies. I say plant your feet and stand your ground. Never let your life be dictated by others!
Nice, I really liked this track. I can't wait for the full album. Muse are some of the all time greats if you ask me. One of the most amazing live bands I've ever seen.
2 clicks and after seeing a brief clip of the original I can say. Bring it on. This seems to offer so much Elizabeth can nerd out over.
When I heard Muse as a kid for the very first time on MTV in the 90's, 2 things about his voice grabbed me: his amazing strong falsetto and the peculiar way he audibly breathes in. I found it so distinct, I'd never heard anything like it.
I am so happy you are reviewing my all time favourite band and in my opinion, the best 3 piece ever (sorry Rush fans). A truly epic return to form from them and I love how they have moved back into the more heavier side of their music.
As a Rush fan I am indeed triggered.
Yes I'm ok with that there's nothing like dreaming
Why "sorry rush fans"? It's your personal opinion... why should be all the same? 🤷🏼♂️
YOU BINGED ALL OF MUSE AND DIDNT RECORD IT?! THIS IS EVERYTHING IVE EVER WANTED FROM YOU!!!!
Hahahaha! I was a pimply teen back then! Or young adult. Something. I was much younger without a channel!
@@TheCharismaticVoice oh okay! I grew up with Muse. Thanks so much for this video!
@@Broken_Fret Same here, we are blessed people in that regard! 😊
I don't know y'all's age but I remember Plug In Baby on MTV 😂
That and Freestyler. It was so god damn cool and exciting as a little bastard
I saw them live and they killed it, what a show!! great analysis btw Elizabeth🤘
I Love how he infuses his breath right in with the flow of the lyric's energy timing without there being any gap, void or missed beat.
It's interesting that you count it like that, with the bar of 5/4, because I count the entire song in 4/4 with the 1 falling on a different beat haha! During the verse I have the big bass wahs on 4 and 1, rather than on 1 and 2 like you were counting them. Really cool arranging anyway! The verses are in this triplet, reggae feel and then the chorus and heavy bits are in a straight 4/4. Great stuff as always from Muse!
samesies, was thrown off when Elizabeth started counting it like that (snare on the 3 is the giveaway - imo)
I counted the song entirely in 4/4 as well. Am I counting wrong? I don't see how there is a bar of 5/4.
@@Syfur-td1tw She just started to count wrong which led to her believing that the 4 before the drop was a 5. It happens. But funny how she was so amazed by something that wasn't even there :D
hmm, I hear the bass on 3 and 4, it makes Matt's vocal lines fit better in the measures to me. Then going into the prechorus riff, the final measure of the verse is cut short to 3/4.
And the big shift between the verses and the chorus (if no one else has pointed it out) is that the verses are triplet based (12/8) and the choruses are 16th note based (straight 4/4). I like the fact that they ditch the subdivisions to make that transition from vs to ch.
Really enjoyed that. I feel educated in a lot of ways and also really dig your enjoying yourself, it's infectious.
Loved your reaction!! So passionate!! Thank u!! ♥️♥️🤘🏻🤘🏻
Such a fangirl 😁
But you're absolutely spot on with everything you said. Not many singers that I get goosebumps consistently, but Matt Bellamy for sure one of them. Miss those guys live (last time 2019 in Prague)
Yep. Matt is the king of goose bumps. Hands down!👏🏻
Im missign them this year in Prague
What a treat! Watching Elizabeth's first time run through of a new song from an absolutely stellar group, now at the peak of their creative ingenuity, with the added bonus that she personally has always loved their music, but just so happens to have not heard this song yet. The enthusiasm is genuine and infectious to any rock music lover. Entertainment at it's highest form.
It just gets better and better... I'm not familiar with a lot of the music you introduce on this channel and it's quite the education! I mean that sincerely... Thank you so much for everything you do!
Thank you, Ray. A lot of the music on this channel is a huge diversion from what I'm used to, so I'm on this journey along with you!
With Matthew reaches with his voice it just goes and goes and finally rests somewhere in the stars. Chills.
I highly suggest that you check out the acoustic version of their song “The Void”. The arrangement is haunting and it’s easily one of my favorite vocal performances from Matt. It really shows off how unique his singing style can be
Yes
I don't think "arraignment" is the word you were looking for
Definitely a good one to listen to.
Thank you, Elizabeth! That was so much fun for me to watch and listen to. What an amazing group, an amazing song, and your reaction was fantastic. Thank you for your positive energy!
Hello Carl. How are you doing?
Not only is the musicianship of Muse incredibly impressive (including Matt's vocals) their lyrical Content is some of the most relevant and truthful you will find.
They've been trying to send a message for years and unfortunately (i.e. The Resistance, Drones, Simulation Theory) alot of it is still falling on deaf ears, no pun Intended.
It's not just art, and it's definetley not fantasy, but no body wants to admit they've been fooled, and no one wants their "reality" shaken up by frightening truths.
Brilliant reaction as always, and it's always a pleasure.
Stay Golden, Liz ☯️
I’ve noticed a lot of bands starting to get very anti-establishment as of late. Lamb of God’s recent album was pretty intense in the realm.
To take moment on Muse, dear lord this was way heavier than I expected from them.
@@goldenhate6649 not just anti-establishment but there's been a growing overreach from those in power for the last 20 years.
We could have a whole debate about the subject but I think what I might say would possibly be misconstrued or misinterpreted
I'll simply suggest anyone who reads this watch the 1976 movie Network, and legitimately look into the concepts that MUSE bring up, esp those regarding simulation.
And i 100% agree. Pleasantly surprised about that, I heard it was gonna be heavy but this is a side to MUSE we haven't seen since Absolution/Black Holes and Revalations... even then this is much angrier and more along the lines of having metal influence. I love it!
Elizabeth's mention of dubstep elements was spot on as well.
We are seeing a very matured, and polished version of MUSE with this project
I really hate how bad their lyrics are nowadays... They used to have such beautiful lyrics but now everything is so awkward and over the top without any nuance. I'm still a little traumatized from "cold chick, you ate my soul like a death eater" and Propaganda in general, just to mention one.
What happened to things like Hoodoo? Those are some of my favourite lyrics ever. Especially "and I've had recurring nightmares that I was loved for who I am and missed the opportunity to be a better man"
@@chaotictuc I get where you're coming from but Won't Stand Down and Propaganda don't even compare. Matt could've been a bit more clever here, as the repetition isn't all that catchy, but Propaganda is easily one of their worst songs.
If I could raise this thought as well:
How many albums/songs do they have?
There's only so many times you can keep saying the same messages in different ways.
I'm not even the biggest MUSE fan, just like music in general but even their worst songs trump most "relevant" musicians' (if many mainstream artists can even be considered such) best songs.
@@BuddhaDog93 I mean, I really like Won't Stand Down but I just kinda have to try my best to ignore the lyrics because they're so awkwardly worded I can't enjoy the song if I pay attention to them haha
I'm also aware that it's personal preference. I just happen to be a big fan of pretty words, even some vague meanings. But I do think there are ways to make these "really spelling it out for you" lyrics a little less clumsy with a little effort. I feel like "Assassin" or "City of Delusion" do a decent job at that.
Your joy is absolutely contagious, you have become part of my morning routine and between the good music, analysis and infectious attitude you genuinly put a smile on my face to start the day!!! Thank you!
Matt is a chemist of music. Experimenting different weird sound and perfected it! Love it!
Watching you so excited and happy gives me so much joy! Thank you for your videos.
Literally just yesterday, I was thinking about suggesting Muse to you. They have some of the best vocals, instrumentation/orchestration, and musical intelligence of any band I've heard. Matt Bellamy is insanely talented.
I asked for it today and here we go!! My favorite reaction person??! Doing my favorite song right now. Thank you. Can’t wait!!!
I call it his taffy voice. How it stretches and pushes against the notes it's confined to. I got into them late and with Madness of all songs, but it showcased that quality of his so well. Tumbled into the rest of their music Very quickly.
AWESOME!! Every few years I look for new bands. I’m in that mode and just found you 2 weeks ago. I bought this song due to your review, response, the lyrics, vocal (so unique!) and of course the music is spont on fabulous! I’m a fan! Thank you for sharing!
Matt ( lead singer) is doing the main singing as usual with his stunning voice , but it's Chris who plays awesome bass guitar that is actually doing the gritty, distorted screaming parts. And Dom is doing the amazing drums . Just an amazing group all of them so talented and intelligent.
Only just seen your channel for the first time and loving this already. Now subscribing. ☺️👍❤️
Chris is basically the reason I learnt bass in my teens all by myself, using fingers, of course! And I was actually a large contributor to tabs at one point online lol, ah good times!!!
@@SebHaarfagre Do you still play bass guitar?
Actually that first scream going into the breakdown is Matt.
@@jhamilton1007 Ok thanks ,but I did hear that Chris did complain of a sore throat for the sounds , so maybe they both did stuff .
@sallykilby524 Actually I was wrong. It was Kill Or Be Killed
I love your reaction, genuinely interesting analysis, but you can see how much you love the song and Matt too!
I must admit, I haven't stopped listening to this song since it came out.
I love the fact they threw some metal in this song, can’t wait to see this song done live. Yes, you should do reactions to them live, it sounds better than the studio versions.
Chills! And I love seeing someone having the same reaction to it as I had. I can listen to this over and over!
Elizabeth, I love you! Though, I must bring to your attention that this song is entirely in 4/4; your '1' count comes in early on the '4' of the prior measure, giving your phrasing a bit of unbalance. Absolutely love your take on Matt's vocal specificity. Muse is my favorite band of all time, and watching you (as a fellow Muse fan) nerd out over his style after all these years brings me so much joy.
You may not have heard any tracks from their Drones album, but I really enjoy the meaning behind "The Globalist", where Matt sings in such a fabulous, yet morose way in order to capture the lyrics and mood of the song. It's a long one, but give it a listen!
Agree on the 4/4, was going to comment before I saw yours :) You can hear her counting 4 on the snare while that should be 3
I loved your reaction, the song seems simple but it has so many details that actually gives the song a lot of depth.
Dammit, I have to wait a day?!
I cant wait to see your reaction.
I've been sooooo waiting for this reaction. I absolutely LOVE Muse!!!!
Thanks Elizabeth. I had a pretty good idea you’d like this one. Muse is off the charts with talent and Matt’s voice is right there up with the best. And the song is epic. Really enjoyed watching you freak out over it😀😀
I came here on parachutes because of reviews of grunge musics, and literally i love the way you react them. it's really charismatic to watch!
now, i'm stuck by a mountains of interesting reacts LOL!
Thanks for a wonderfull content!!
and choose to coment in this one because Muse is a one of my favourite bands acctualy and i love to discover more songs of them. I would be wonderfull to watch more reviews of them because it's marvelous how Matt Bellamy put his voice on Rock Music.
This is quickly becoming my favorite Muse song. Great new album.
I’m so happy that you love Muse!! I’ve followed them for years, they originated just a few miles from me. Matt has an amazing voice & I continue to be amazed by his musical skills.. what a gift
La voix de Matt est incroyable, et cette chanson complètement folle ! Elle m’a retournée le cerveau la première fois que je l’ai entendue et m’a hantée des jours et nuits durant. Le clip est génial mais creepy cependant il apporte de la tension à la musique, l’histoire y est amenée petit à petit.
Merci pour votre analyse, elle me permets de rentrer plus dans cette œuvre. En comprendre les rouages m’aide à apprécier plus encore la chanson.
Par ailleurs, les autres morceaux de l’album sont formidables également. Notamment « We are fucking fucked » ou « Euphoria » que je n’arrive plus à me sortir de la tête. Pourriez-vous faire d’autres analyses des morceaux de cet album ?
Merci beaucoup et très bonne journée à vous!
Oh je suis complètement d'accord avec vous votre commentaire c'est comme si je l'avais écrit c'est exactement ça idem pour moi MON CERVEAU En n'ai imprégné Matt vraiment un génie quel talent brillant et les membres du groupe également ils sont phénomènaux merci pour votre bon commentaire et pour la cootch vocal
I've loved Muse for soo long and as always, they never fail to impress.
Matt's voice is so glorious! He just has so much variety and it always sends a good shiver down my spine.😍
Thanks Elizabeth for reviewing this. I always come away with a fuller understanding of all the songs you review, which just adds to my enjoyment.❤️🤗
I'd love to see you react to Muse's "Supremacy" Matt's voice is insaaaane
She is so much fun to watch. She gets so excited! I love it. Great song, great breakdown!
I’ve been to hundreds of concerts, and Muse has consistently been the absolute best!! I would love to hear your reaction to Hysteria, even if you already know the song! To appreciate his piano skills, Butterflies and Hurricanes is incredible… please please!! Thank you for being awesome and so passionate about what you do!
Love the way you properly pull track's apart and analyse them Elizabeth 👏♥️ you're the best 🔝
As a long time fan, Muse's last couple of albums have left me cold. They really didn't gel with me at all. It's OK it happens when bands go in different musical directions, but this track has given me hope again. I've had the pleasure of seeing these guys live twice (Black Holes and Revelations and The Resistance Tours) and they were spectacular. Elizabeth if you ever do another Muse song on the channel I would like to suggest Exogenesis Symphony - Part 1 (Overture) from The Resistance album, so we all get to see you nerd out over Matt's falsetto again :D
That's a great composition! I love that.I wonder what's your reaction!!
New sub here. Matts voice is TOP notched. I have been a fan of Muse from their very beginning. And you my dear have tought me a lot about music that I didn't know. You take music to a new dimension. Thank you very much.
I would love to hear your analysis of ABBA "The Winner Takes It All"
I'm very stoked on your in-depth vocal analysis. I have a love for designing synth sounds and the language you choose to describe your analysis makes 💯 sense
another great singer is Sam Carter from Architects, his fry his the best in the metal scene
My suggestion are Modern Mysery, Holy Hell or Impermanence (live session)
we've asked and she's done it. love watching this.. thank you !!!
I love that muse have always moved with there style but ALWAYS had the muse sound,
Sure it turns some people off when they move away from the bit they like ( angry guitars moving into more dub step style beats etc) but they have always been experimental, Matt’s guitar had a sample pad on it before most people.
They are almost clinical in there arrangements and sound which is awesome but songs like this make me long for a live show where they can play and really let loose on the guitars etc, something they can’t really do on record.
As for there live show, muse is one of very few bands that I REALLY enjoy live and sometimes prefer live, they are so creative with there sets and lighting and love to put on a show. Something a few bands are lacking in nowadays
Love your analysis of this and I recently subscribed - the live Muse experience is reflected in this video -- larger than life, and I love that my kids all love them -- I'll always see Muse as one of the most powerful and multi-faceted bands out there where each musician can arguably be seen as the best or towards the top of the heap at their respective crafts. Amazing musicians. Additionally a great clip showing the energy of a live Muse experience is their closing song, Stockholm Syndrome, during the 2004 Glastonbury Festival -- an infamous performance that was so intense and passionate that after watching it, the drummer, Dominic's, father died of a heart attack.
please react to russian song in three different variation:
Sretensky monastery choir - Horse (HD quality)
любэ конь прям мурашки везде хор девушек
Песня "Конь". Московский Казачий Хор. "Выйду в поле с конем"
nice suggestion!i hope she'll notice it!
потрясающая песня на века! очень ждем реакции!
ELIZABETH,YOU'LL DEFENETLY LOVE IT!
awesome advice! russians adore this song
ждем с нетерпением реакции
I loved all your videos with 99% of my heart. Yet, I never understood why there was never a single react to any Muse song, which is my favorite band of all time. The only acceptable reason was of course, you being a fangirl and binging Muse.
It's so heartwarming watching you react to Muse and Matt's voice. Here, have the last 1% of my heart. It's 100% yours now.
Great reaction, and excellent analysis. But that "bar of 5/4" doesn't exist. You started counting by placing the 1 on the 4. The verses have the snare hitting on beat 3, not beat 4, for a half-time feel. The bass throughout the verse hits on beats 4 & 1 of every other measure. Love your content, though. Keep it up!
What a brilliant reaction video! Your passion, energy and knowledge was truly uplifting. Thank you for the video from a huge Muse fan.
Would be great if you could do some in depth analysis of some of their live performance. Microcuts live @ hullabaloo or citizen erased from the same gig.
Saw them live last night at MK Bowl. They were magnificent! Wonderful analysis!
A comparison of Hyper Music vs Hyper Chondriac Music would be cool. Same lyrics, wildly different sounds
I saw them live in London for Drones a few years ago, can't wait to hear them play this live, their production quality is so amazing on their live performances.
Surprised you haven't reacted to Avenged Sevenfold yet, the melody on Welcome to the Family is awesome.
Thank you for doing this. It's the first song in 20 years at least that I have really been blown away by. I heard it here the first time a week ago, and can't get enough of it. I wouldn't have even known about it if I wasn't subscribed to you.
Even right to the end, the production is so detail conscious. That tiny bit of sustain or reverb on the final drumbeat makes for a very abbreviated fade out. It is very cool.
I love your analysis. I've listened to this probably 40 times in the last week, and watching this again, I learned new things about it.
The Scorpions convinced Elizabeth that she's still loving you.
Kirk said "Send me an Angel", and there was Elizabeth.
@@metalmark1214 we got Satriani coming at us in about 45 minutes Mark how about that! Doug finally got on board that train.
@@sethkaicer319 Yeah, wish it were something off of Surfing with the Alien, but I'll take it. Doug convinced Joe it was safe to surf with an alien.
@@metalmark1214 Joe is truly Not of This Earth.
Elizabeth showed the hurricane how to properly rock someone.
Compared to the superficial singing shows, your channel is truly amazing in it's dedication to both the spirit, emotion and technical breakdowns in diverse genres. Thank you for being you lol.
Hello everybody! I just wanted to say that i recently noticed that Elizabeth haven't reacted to Amaranthe. Now i do realize that Amaranthe isn't neccessarily on top of the list if Nightwish is aviable but i still would like to hear professional's take on them.
Oh man. Amaranthe has been on my list for over a month, and I feel bad not getting to it. It's coming, I promise!!! (someday)
@@TheCharismaticVoice Try "Endlessly".
Love Muse, love seeing/hearing you walk us through this song and be so excited about it. You need to check out Bastille. Anything by them really, but the song that first hooked me was Pompeii.
The creepy-looking guy is Matt, btw.
Love your reaction lol. You express exactly how Muse, this and all of their songs make me feel.
You should review Starlight from their earlier album; better example of his voice.
Never heard of Muse, don't know Matt, so just watched. What a revelation! This is one of the things I really appreciate about Elizabeth's work here; she's got wide-ranging musical interests, and it's fun to watch her grow. She's now a Floor fan, and I'm now a Muse fan. All good, win-win. Thanks again for all your efforts, Elizabeth. 🤘😛🤘
I'd like to hear your review of Judith by A Perfect Circle
I'd love to share it! Unfortunately, it's a Patron exclusive video for our second and above tiers. If you're wondering why, our video release from today might explain it. ;-)
I love how excited you get listening to all these performances, but then being able to give really good insight into how and why you feel this way about it.
I don't know any music theory myself, but I love to hear your explanation behind it all
I really feel Elizabeth missed the message of the song a little bit... "Won't stand down" isn't about the bullies in our lives... it's about the bullying of these very very few assholes (multi-billionaires) who are literally toying with the lives of the whole rest of humanity, constantly oppressing them, constantly making their everyday lives a little bit harder, a little bit worse... and all that to get richer, to get more money, to have more power for them to keep committing crimes daily... crimes that nobody will ever judge them for...
It's not about somebody kicking your butt at school... it's about the very very few that control the masses... the ones that are nowadays above the law, above the rest of humanity just because they have fucking MONEY...
It's a very powerful song... just sad that nothing will ever change... our world is enslaved by money completely and it will never change... us, the plebes, will have to settle for mediocre, unfulfilling lives that are all about survival while the elite can have and do everything under the sun... we live in the most unfair and unlawful times of modern humanity.... they have managed to put us in a society of the middle ages and are just fooling us that this modern world is "better" and more "civilized" by dangling shiny gadgets in front of us to make us forget how shitty our lives are...
Let me ask this one question... what percentage of humanity around the world can say that they can afford to take a vacation, staying in a good hotel for 2 weeks every year? I would bet way less than 10%... 9 out of 10 people will never even have peace and comfort for 2 fucking weeks... I rest my case...
The truckers in Canada sure aren't standing down. But you're right. It starts small scale with bullying, goes to Control, then authoritarianism (total control). How much of this approach is Elizabeth ducking the bullying tactics of TH-cam? There are so many channels that say, oh, I can't say that here on youtube, go watch this video on Rumble. Why? Because words?
Muse has had a long anti establishment leaning, Resistance, Drones, etc. That 'Death Metal'/Tiger moment at 3:00 in the song? That's the Patient Man's Fury set loose. You don't want to be there when that happens when he's had ENOUGH and WON'T STAND DOWN.
@@LordNelsonkm I'm gonna disappoint you but the vast majority of people have become completely numb and have no feeling anymore... completely sucked in a parallel universe to ease their suffering (some call it TV, some social media, some video games etc) and they're not ever gonna stand up... plus they can't stand up anyway... the owners of the world (the billionaires) own the media, own the courts, own the governments, own everything...
I live in a country that has been completely sold to private businesses (Greece) and the standard of living is fucking atrocious... the average wage is around 1000-1200euros and the rent for a decent one bedroom apartment is easily 400-500 euros (and here the rent doesn't include electricity bills etc)... electricity went up 200% in the last year, heating 120% up, food 20-30% up...
And yet the people do nothing... they voice their anger and desperation online... but online doesn't hurt anyone... so who cares...
Anyway... I used to be an optimist but now I've lived long enough to know that optimism is for fools... there are ZERO options for a better life, ZERO opportunities for a better job and livelihood in my country... and I'm someone that has a university degree and speaks two foreign languages...
The world will go to utter shit my man... and we'll waste our years waiting for it to get better...
@@sportschool3537 Living in Greece too I agree on everything you said
@@sportschool3537 Hard times create hard men. Hard men create good times. Good times create soft men. Soft men create hard times. You are very right School. There are those that are doing something about it though. It's hard to turn the tide and it took 500 years to get out of the dark ages last time. Live your best life you can now and inspire others to think. Italy, France, and other places around Europe I've seen the resistance spark. It's there, it just needs more oxygen.
Matt’s a powerhouse. The guy uses his head voice like no other. The distorted voice in the breakdown is kind of a Muse signature as well as some arpeggiators. He does it as well in Supermassive Black Hole and Break It To Me. Glad you recognize his abilities. Cheers.
New Muse is Meh. Old Muse is pure gold
I am so in love with this dude singing always dreamed of seeing his song in some sort of revolutionary movies
Kind of makes you wonder if this is a response to all the covid bs.
that's what i was thinking too, seems obvious to me
Amazing video! Love how giddy and excited you get about them, I feel it too!
They are truly amazing all these years they have been around. Thank You for sharing :))
❤ Let's appreciate that one more time! Thanks for expressing exactly how i feel about this song.
