The off topic thread

It's OK. Doesn't do much for me, though.

Yeah that's fair enough.

Matt Bellamy is absolutely ridiculous for his lead vocals, brilliant voice

Seen them live twice, it's amazing how high his voice gets.

 

[Cooldude]

He is one of the few who explores his falsetto perfectly

He is like Chris Martin except he sings 100 times better

 

[Cruyff14]

Barry Gibb is the king of falsetto.

Billy Joel's was very good too.

 

[Cooldude]

Very few of them are willing to explore their falsetto that extensively, maybe it's an alpha male issue

Saw them a few years ago, absolutely amazing band.

Muse has some great tunes, not a fan of everything but rarely am with any artist

It's always the lead man that makes the band for me, Matt Bellamy is one of the best going around right now

Since this has become the "Post good live performances" thread, here's the best Muse live performance:

Their recent stuff is pants. BHAR was their peak.

One of the things I love about Muse is the occasional classical piano, love that with Muse, just suddenly goes bang on the ivory

This is why Butterflies and Hurricanes is top tier Muse.

Top song that

Not sure what you'd think of AM, I feel like you might like some stuff from their new album more than their earlier stuff. Do I Wanna Know? is a good place to start.

I absolutely ****ing love them, speaking of good songwriters Alex Turner is up there.

Alex Turner is the Lennon/McCartney of this generation. Incredible poet.

Did you go see AM at their recent tour?

I did! Absolutely incredible. Definitely one of my favourite bands.

Turner has said that his ambition is to write a song as lyrically complex as I Am The Walrus, so he has the right tastes.

Yeah went as well, amazing performance. Changed so much since I first them live.

Vanilla Ice 2007 was one of the best live acts I've seen.

Epic.

Yep I sure did. They were fantastic, although I wish they'd played When the Sun Goes Down or A Certain Romance.

Mardy Bum for me, one of my favourites.

Their earlier stuff is brilliant live. Would have loved ritz to the rubble.

All their albums are brilliant in different ways, but definitely love Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, Favourite Worst Nightmare, and AM the most.

Those are my favourites too. Not many bands have produced five top, quality albums and they don't seem like slowing down any time soon.

 

[jod23]

Wow Glass, that was unexpected.

Gutting... took me unaware.

Will be missed. What a player.

Muse are terrific. The ultimate knock your socks off big band. It's incredible the amount of noise and music the three of them generate live. I know they have help but yeah for a three piece they are ridiculous and Matt Bellamy is a hell of a front man.

Ive seen them live twice. Both times they were incredible!
