like my bipolar dad, 90% smokin cigars and cigaroshi gatto sayin, 10 percent wig wam bam gonna make you my man bam in the face wam in the clam tender like lamb when the chose slam of my 90 lb body hits the dry wall.
The buildup... Is just phenomenal. The lead up to "take a bow" and how the song slowly gets more and more intense before the climax at the end, exploding in a beautiful mix of guitar, piano (I'm guessing) and that cool sci-fi music, it's just perfect. Black Holes and Revelations is my favourite muse album and honestly this is such a perfect opening for it.
I saw these guys in Portland (Oregon) when they toured for this album. I actually didn't know anything about them. The girl I was dating at the time asked if I would go with her. I said "Sure". LOL. After the concert I bought the album. And then of course a few more Muse albums right after that.
Good for you! I saw them once live for the Simulation Theory tour and they played this song!! I was 100% jamming lol. I listen to a lot of unconventional music but this is my favorite band by far.
I can't believe it's been 6+ years since I was sitting at a movie theater watching the previews and the watchmen one came up. That is how I discovered Muse. I can't begin to tell you how blown away I was by this song. Even to this day this song continues to sway my whole consciousness. I have now seen muse live 3 times and sadly they have played this none of those times but I have hope they will someday!
I saw them in early April 2019 in Detroit, Michigan, and this was their tour for Simulation Theory. They started playing this song and I fucking lost it and became a maniac. This is one of my favorite songs of theirs and combined with the songs from Simulation Theory, when I first heard them playing this I was literally manic. I screamed along with the lyrics like a revolutionary madman. It was one of the best experiences I've ever had. Words cannot describe how happy I was that they played this song. I probably almost lost my voice with how hard I was screaming with the lyrics lmao.
The chord progression for Take A Bow is super complex but follows a beautiful pattern. I-major to I-augmented, I-major to iv-minor, to THAT chord's major which becomes the new I, following the same augmented/iv/ I key-change pattern. It circles all the way to Eb, takes a break, then continues that pattern all the way to B major. Love it!
Glad for you. They've been my favorite band ever since I seriously started listening to music as a teen. They had a conspiracy theory era, but whether they're right or not, they smartly toned that wayyyyy down, but I still love their songs about it (Exo-Politics for example) because they're so relatable, and so is the knowledge that we have no idea what governments truly know or are up to. Even if you don't necessarily believe every lyric. But I've never found a greater band than Muse that talks about these things.
that line and your prof pic... matches... and yet doesnt... don't know how to explain it but it's fucking hilarious when trying to imagine that face sing that line....or the song in general XD
is true man in my country Venezuela we live in a dictatorship who´s speaking about lies and lies, they´ll bring deaths during prostesters, massaccre his own citizens. is fucking crazy
@@pedroluismendezalbujas7720 Typical leftist American college student: "UHHH NO IT'S NOT A DICTATORSHIP, THE US CLEARLY WANTS VENEZUELA'S OIL AND IS BACKING GUAIDO AND WAGING ECONOMIC WAR, THE PEOPLE ALL SUPPORT HIM" The middle part may be based in some truth, but that doesn't mean Maduro isn't a dictator. I hate it when people sympathize with tyranny just because it would be in the interests of the U.S. if that dictator were removed. That doesn't mean I support U.S. action there at ALL because I do not.
i once met this girl at a birthday party and it was her first time doing mdma, we had an hour long conversation on a big swing and i told her this is gonna change her life, i put my earphones in her ears and played this on full volume while i swung her to the beat, i swear she had an outer body experience
This was the opening song one of the times I saw Muse live and the whole crowed lurched forward intime with this drop 2:35 and pulsed intime with the chords.
As a Musical theatre/Choir singer I've used this song as a warmup for every singing performance I've had to do for the past 16-17 years. Extremely useful to get the vocals loose. I know I'm ready when I can crush it..
No one .. can play against destiny and fate... No one.... Can play and defy the energy that created us.. for we our all .. one.. and "an attack on one of us ... Is an attack on all of us"
The musical composition is on point. Anyone who can see them exposing the corruption of the leaderships of the world in quite an interesting and cryptic way have been awakened to the truth and I hope the truth sets everyone free
Lovely song you got & the 2 trailers of Watchmen which this song is in one of those as it's awesome. This song even with the trailer of Watchmen reminds me of as it should've been on: 1. Pokémon: Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution trailer as one trailer (English version). 2. Nez Screens GTA5 Super Squad 2: Neonwave including its Trailer. 3. Nez Screens GTA5 Justice Falls including its Trailer. 4. Star Trek 2009 for its Trailer. 5. Batman: Telltales season 1 for its Trailer. 6. Batman: Arkham Knight for its trailer. 7. Batman: Arkham Origins for its trailer. 8. X men: Apocalypse 2016 for its trailer. 9. Godzilla: King of the Monsters 2019 for its trailer. 10. Godzilla vs Kong 2021 for its trailer. 11. Tron: Legacy 2011 for its trailer.
EXCELLENT SONG with a VERY TRUE WARNING & ENDING! FAIR WARING: Dear Christian brothers and sisters, we all know satin WAS an excellent musician and IS the PRINCE of the earth, HIS mission is to devour your SOUL. I BEG YOU to turn away from sin. REPENT NOW! Tomorrow may be too late. Do NOT be of this world. OBSERVE. HEED THE WARNING. I don't want to see YOU left behind... In JESUS name I pray, Amen. Amen. Amen.
Total bombast. A great marriage of Queen and Radiohead. I had the pleasure of seeing them in September 2007 at a relatively small theater (6,000 seats) in Grand Prairie, Texas.
I always wondered why there's a VHF signal in the beginning of this song... Does anybody else hear this? Probably a reference to secret signals broadcast on the ultra low frequency used to communicate with nuclear subs.
I hear the high frequency sound throughout the song both here and on Spotify and on this specific UA-cam upload it seems to be amplified compared to the other uploads on UA-cam and Spotify. Pretty annoying. Reminds me of those old CRT TVs we had in school in early 2000s and at home. Always the high pitched sound us kids could hear but not the teachers.

Prophetic and true:
“Now freedom’s consuming itself,
What we’ve become,
Is contrary to what we want”
Take A Bow, indeed.
I will always be a fan of old-school Muse. What a GEM of a song!
With all good songs there's a beginning, a middle, and an end. This song has it all, and then some.
What an opening to such an incredible album! This and 'Map of the problematique' are my favourites.
This song starts on D major and Knights of Cydonia ends in E Dorian, which uses the same notes as D major.
Always something new to learn about how they put their albums together
