The addition of the harpsichord, additional falsetto vocals is a nice touch to an otherwise already brilliant song. I'm spamming this song all day long. You can actually understand what Matt is singing now. Hoping this song makes a comeback at future gigs even if it's pitched much lower than OG pitch.
the thing is, they were always there. They didnt technically ''added'' anything. They were just disabled because of sound mixing limitations or something like that. This remaster/remixx gave them the chance to reach the full potential/version of the album. No re-recording just enabling and clearing the audio 😁
@@Bad_Dog_Gaming In the process of making tracks you often end up recording/creating lines that don't end up in the finalized versions. It's more of a creative decision than anything else (sometimes corporate decisions though). Most likely not due to technical limitations I'd bet. When they were finalizing the album back in the day they might've wanted the album to sound more like rock music and kind of fade the classical influences. (matt hinted at something like this in the video where they talk about micro cuts xx edition) That's purely speculation though. Personally I prefer the 2001 version, in my opinion the harpsichord and "added" vocal lines dont give much value. Though I do like the clearer vocals and mix generally. Just my opinion!
i love micro cuts but i couldn’t understand the lyrics at first in the OG OOS. Matt’s vocals are so much clearer now and the choruses are even more epic, the harpsichord adds a lot to this. That outro hits different in a chaotic way which fits the song, and i love it. love this remaster
I want to say the same. It was the neatest production trick of this album when I first heard it - and it hooked me. Perhaps that's down to the TH-cam codec and the vinyl will have that stereo 'swing' effect.
Hands are red with your blame Megaphone screaming my name Whimpers someone I should've loved Souls weeping above I've seen what you're doing to me Destroying puppet strings To our souls Micro waves me insane A blade cuts in your brain Sounds like forks on a plate Blackboard scratched with hate I've seen what you're doing to me Destroying puppet strings To our souls
I'm loving everything about this album remix, the equalization and added parts make it sound much more dynamic, I feel like it's swallowing me and it feels like I'm hearing OoS for the first time again 🥺
@@fentolix5973 I thought that at first, but it's on all platforms... It's a bit jarring for me, after knowing this song for 20 years. I understand they got rid of the phasing FX which transitioned between citizen erased and micro cuts, but i don't see why that would mean they'd have to get rid of the first note from micro cuts, as the phase FX were an artefact from citizen erased. I'm a studio engineer, so i understand the recording and mixing process quite well, but i really can't wrap my head around it, if it is a deliberate decision.
That’s kinda strange you say that. Like the guy above me said, the tempo is the same, but a few of the songs sounded slower to me than the originals. My theory is that since all the dynamics in the songs have been increased dramatically, it’s easier to hear each beat, so instead of the songs playing fluently with all the instruments bunched up into a single sound, you hear them individually which gives the illusion that they’re playing at a slower pace.
@@bandit4690 the song has the same duration as before but it's missing the first bar so I think it's possibly slower unless they added a few details in between or stretched some parts
@@lucas_sg Its the same tempo. The tracks havent been re-recorded, just remixed/remastered. Asides from the possible extra overdub (unsure if they have added stuff or just re mixed in stuff that was buried in the background), the raw takes are the what was recorded originally.
@@stuartgibson1981 I didn't imply they had been rerecorded. I was just pointing out that they had cut off the first bar of the song, even though both versions are equally long. Therefore I'm guessing it might be less than 1bpm slower.
One of the most powerfull Muse's track. Ever. I cannot describe how this makes me feel. It's like watching the mushroom of an A Bomb right in the eye, weird thing is that you enjoy it.
Honestly this almost feels like an intirely different vocal track. Shows just how much different something can feel, depending on how you treat the mix and the track itself
i've never understood this song other than it's when matt almost becomes a dog whistle. then it hit me the other day. this is like matt singing opera which is beautiful
they've changed anything on this track ! even the guitar effect and extra matt's vocals , this is wonderful ! but the song's atmosphere is different from the main version ,but still wonderful.
Absolutely insane !!! I got shivers down my spine. I can't believe i'm reliving the emotions of the first time hearing OoS. As a personal note, i believe the extra falsetto from the 2nd verse is unnecessary, it doesn't sound as unique as in the 1st verse. Also, the faded vocals during the final riff should not be there because i believe the riff at the end is so good that it should not be doubled by those vocals. It's a violent end riff in the style of RATM. Nevertheless, this version of Micro Cuts is an outstanding performance, same with all the remixes from OoS. They all sound like a new, fresh, live performance but in a much cleaner way, without any sorrounding noises. I am now waiting for number 9 !
A big thank you to all my fans! What will my name and career be without all of your love and support? Amidst my darkest days you all stood by me, I don't have all the time in the world to reply, but i do read your heartwarming comments and i truly appreciate all.

Beautiful. matt can hit the high notes very powerfully. Also love the remixed drums and guitars. Overall, it has a much cleaner and better sound. Love it 🔥
This and Citizen erased are probably their best songs ever,only thing i miss in this song is more dominant guitars in the chorus,bass is clearer in every song

@@Shineh234 thank you. Good info.
Origin of symmetry is a masterpiece, gritty, experimental, not one single bad track in the album, love it so much, bravo muse
Can you hear it?
When 3:25 hits, you can hear Matt singing EVERYTHING at x999 speed.
Mindblowing!!! These dudes really had fun remixing this album.
Holy shit!
Woah, I never noticed that
This is probably the best Muse song they have ever made
The vocals, bass, guitar and drums are at their best here. I live with Micro Cuts in my veins
Да
i think it is the most sonically raw and experimental muse have ever been. i don’t think it is the best but the artistry is undeniable
Don't cut your veins bro :(
No
It’s not the best but that’s subjective. It’s a raw power driven song during their older days and influences they had at the time
This album is a masterpiece I love Muse so much
they did a phenomenal job on this one.
The harpsichord and vocal intro is icing on top of an already incredible song. I am in awe.
It feels like when I first heard this song. Unexplainable feelings
Great, now i can hear Matt's voice more clearly now 🤣
Pgn nangis gua rasany kyk dengerin album baru
That’s the point..in all it’s glory

Ok tinggal nunggu album showbiz sama hysteria di remix 😁

The vocal at 1:41 always gets me with how on-pitch it is with just a slight vibrato. It's very beautiful.
The falsetto at 2:18 never fails to amaze me every listen
That part is like trying to jump out of a truck!
The song explodes at 03:20 and suddenly some random aliens start shouting
😂😂
M M M M M M M M MADNESS
😂😂😂
The best band FOREVER!!!
If you ask Matt Bellamy he will tell you that the best band of all time is Queen
@@hanschristianamayamira44 of course, too The Beatles, AC/DC, The Doors etc... but I meant to this genre
New album disagrees with your opinion xD
A little sad that the riff at the end doesnt have the left-to-right pan like the original did
I was about to comment the same, I started to love this song back then thanks to that part
I didn't notice at first because i was distracted by the weird synth noise that happens in it's place.
Honestly I do too, although it was a nice surprise to hear how much heavier it is now. In fairness, I can like them each for what they are
I want to say the same. It was the neatest production trick of this album when I first heard it - and it hooked me. Perhaps that's down to the TH-cam codec and the vinyl will have that stereo 'swing' effect.
@@jbones360 Nah, nothing to do with the codec. If that was the case, it would be missing on any uploads of the original version too, which it isn't.
Hands are red with your blame
Megaphone screaming my name
Whimpers someone I should've loved
Souls weeping above
I've seen what you're doing to me
Destroying puppet strings
To our souls
Micro waves me insane
A blade cuts in your brain
Sounds like forks on a plate
Blackboard scratched with hate
I've seen what you're doing to me
Destroying puppet strings
To our souls
Just a masterpiece!
Funny, I always thought he was saying “…frog spawn on a plate”. Misheard 😅
Absolutely beautiful
Didn't think that micro cuts could be any better. Great job, Muse. Still favourite album of all times!
Finally, this masterpiece is ready to liste. Honestly this is my favorite song, the best of the best song of this group. Beautiful, simply beautiful.
It's like hearing it for the first time. Hair raising. Absolute chills.
More clear, everything is amplified...
These are more than just a "feeling good" ...
Perfect !!
I'm in love with the harpsichord omg
I'm loving everything about this album remix, the equalization and added parts make it sound much more dynamic, I feel like it's swallowing me and it feels like I'm hearing OoS for the first time again 🥺
Royal Blood's new album this year and now this masterpiece from Muse? What a lucky guy i am to be alive! 🧠🎸💙
Why does the song now start on the second note in the bar?! I’m loving the clarity of this remix, but this was a strange decision.
I think it was an accident when posting this video
It’s the same on the Spotify version I think it’s deliberate
like some dude said on the other comment, maybe it's been "micro cut" 😄
@@fentolix5973 I thought that at first, but it's on all platforms... It's a bit jarring for me, after knowing this song for 20 years.

@@LetsSewIt lol that moment 😂😂
That choir sound on the hit of the chorus had me absolutely shook, was not expecting that at all
seriously!!! that hit me so hard, SO good
That intro vocal did increase chills of this song
Edit: and at the end too!!!
Muse the only ones who can remix their own songs and pull it off
How dare you release this I am going to explode ?!?!??!?! this is too brilliant for this dull, earthly plane 🤯
it's inexplicably good how it feels to hear these vocals
Chills. This entire album has meant so much to me for so long. I feel blessed tonight.
I don't understand why they would remove the panning effect near the end. That was always one of the coolest parts of the song.
Eh, it's their reinterpretation, I don't mind. The original still had it if you want to listen to it.
Totally agree :(
LITERALLY
Novelty, glad they removed it
Maybe because it's seen as a bit naff these days.
oh it's really changed. I need to time for this. this song was special for me :)
03:20 *THE SONG KILLED ME*
Unexpected...I love it!!
It sounds like Matt’s voice screaming something with a ton of distortion
@@MisterRawgers it sounds like "uuuuhhh aaaaa bblblbblblblb aaaa"
0:12 the song already killed me
th-cam.com/video/1BwcDw03C_o/w-d-xo.html
Good grief. They made this better, they made this even better, how is this even possible?
this sounds like a whole new version of Micro cuts, not a bit similar to the original version from 2001, but sounds so damn good, a little slower tho
It’s the same tempo as before

It sounds more haunting with the extra vocals (& clearer btw) and the harpsichord!
This is sick
One of muses finest works
Wow this sounds crazy different than the original. Awesome song! They actually sound really cool layered on top of each other too
Matt is such a genius
Gracias Muse!!!!!
This sounds so fucking good!! Loving all these. It’s like listening to a new album. Thank you so much for doing this!!! 🙌🙌🙌
that moment your favorite muse song became your favorite song again.
Honestly this almost feels like an intirely different vocal track. Shows just how much different something can feel, depending on how you treat the mix and the track itself
OMG only Muse knows how to make greater something already great 😍😍
Man, the harpsichord is so dope, puts me in a trance
i've never understood this song other than it's when matt almost becomes a dog whistle. then it hit me the other day. this is like matt singing opera which is beautiful
they've changed anything on this track ! even the guitar effect and extra matt's vocals , this is wonderful ! but the song's atmosphere is different from the main version ,but still wonderful.
Also the "micro cuts" of micro cuts at the beginning you probably didn't notice🤣
Absolutely insane !!! I got shivers down my spine. I can't believe i'm reliving the emotions of the first time hearing OoS.
As a personal note, i believe the extra falsetto from the 2nd verse is unnecessary, it doesn't sound as unique as in the 1st verse.

They just released this all at the same time I can't do this
It’s like when I have a really good hot home cooked meal in front of me and I eat it too fast. Gonna burst!
I was literally up all night, but had to come back again. It's just too good.
Best Muse ever!!!1999-2009🤘🏻
Craziest remaster from the album by far. What. The. Hell.
Easily my favorite of the XX album. My wife and I lost our shit immediately with this one.
@@charliedb13 that's awesome
This straight up sounds like an Italian opera now
The little techy noise has gone at 1:52, I liked that on the original
It's still there but barely noticed
I haven't seen you guys since October. I miss you

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH😭
just when you think it could t get much better its breath taking now this song ,my absolute fave ! how about a singalong guys ....
This reminds me of the Mars Volta, Queen and TipToe in the Tulips guy mixed into one. Love it.
AWESOME!!!
Been looking forward to the remix of this one - and it does NOT disappoint :D
I haven't heard this in a hot minute! Love it so much!!!
Creía que la versión original no podía ser más EPICA... pero esto es otro nivel 🤩🤩🤩❤️💪
Siii tiene su algo, es vdd q tiene arreglos detallistas q refinan la escucha

PINCHE MATT CANTAS VERGUIZIMA TE AMOOOO!!!! LOS AMO JKSADKJASJDAJK
Ahh I knew matt still had it it in him. Love you guys. I could be happier
Beautiful. matt can hit the high notes very powerfully. Also love the remixed drums and guitars. Overall, it has a much cleaner and better sound. Love it 🔥
Great work. Is only that I still loving the first version but this one is great
This cuts deeper
Temazo, de las mejores canciones de Muse
This and Citizen erased are probably their best songs ever,only thing i miss in this song is more dominant guitars in the chorus,bass is clearer in every song
Would have loved to hear the chugging guitar chorus they normally use more recently for this song...
Qué genial el arreglo de clavecín que agregaron. No pueden ser más grosos... Los amooo!
This version seems fresh and better !
Best band of all time
im going insaannnneeeeeee i love this ugh
This album is awesome
How did they manage to make it sound even better than it has been for 20 years ??
by far the funniest evolution of a track ive ever heard
Timeless album
Omg he actually redid part of the vocals if not all of them? Loving this one !!
Nothing was re-recorded. Everything is an original recording. Just some takes used here weren't used in the original mix.
years later and i still love this song
WAAAAAAA, TEMAZOO
my first for this song, I don't now what I just listened to, ....gona' need a few more!!
WOWWWWW the difference is so beautiful HOLYYYYYY
i must say the album still is a masterpiece.....
I can explain this song with one word
Masterpiece...
Matt's voice....🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
大好きな曲です😭🙌
En verdad gracias por subir un remastered de la cancion esta excelente, les deseo lo mejor desde Mexico :)
Omg this is so smooth I love it
Been playing this remix on repeat for weeks.
the head voice is overwhelming
Feels like new CD. Incredible.
