Muse - Dark Shines

[adinmilan]

Awasome matt,,powefull song.let's party guys ;)

[swaterik1986]

the instrument at the end. is it a saw?

[oxavelar]

At 2:42, a Scottish Duckling starts singing...

[YorkeTchock]

Far and away Muse's best song. Bass, drums and guitar are all so perfectly measured, vocals are spot on (and reaaaally raw and powerful) and the lyrics are actually pretty good (considering that's generally their weak spot). I'm sure I'll get some abuse for that last bit, but oh well.

[SosolidClaws]

@YorkeTchock

I'm pretty sure you haven't listened carefully to Muse songs.. the lyrics are always very insightful.

[Wirelessgreen]

Matt Bellamy can consume my innocence any day ;-)

[Akira0ws]

they do not play the piano part before the chorus live. too bad, it's so damn awesome :D

[painedgray]

"hold your hands up to your eyes again"

anyone think this is a Phantom of the Opera reference? >___>

[painedgray]

repeatrepeatrepeat

[TheIlian19]

How many Matt Bellamys does it take to screw in a light bulb? None, because Dark Shines.

[bunnykingIII]

@TheIlian19 clever!

[DilutedDreams]

@TheIlian19 Nice.

[husseinahmed95]

OMG, I really LOVE this song, it's amazing !!!!

[Bl4ckSting]

I like the part at 0:50 where it sounds like he's hitting a ton of random notes on the piano.

[FearlessCicada]

@Bl4ckSting Yeah, I like that part too.

[GustavMalja]

U have to love the part right before the chorus <3

[LordyGames]

Micro Cuts or Invincible=Best live muse song

[Zanandran]

Secretly everyone loves Muse, but some people are afraid to be confronted with the truth ;)

[Skateblub]

@Zanandran Why? I fucking love muse and I don't care who knows! Their unique take on the rock genre is amazing.

[TheBlocknickel]

awesome !

[TheReadySetFans]

God i just love the piano part

[evmuketa34521]

Kinda sounds like me when I try to play the piano....only he does it awesomely and I just fail epicly...at failing..

[JoeStunner]

The Origin of Symmetry is nothing less than a masterpiece.

[spankthezebra]

Saw it at Reading :D :D :D Love Muse so damm much !!!!

[TilderWasHere]

@spankthezebra was there too, fucking amazing!!

[GreenDayandMuse]

[TheArchpickle]

wow i think i hear a theremin in there towards the end.

[enigmista994]

thumbs up for the drum solo at 5:11 !

[VERACITYxv]

This song brings out so many emotions in me its indescribable. Its a masterpiece and all of muse's songs touch are incredible. Since my little brother passed away I feel like this song... the darkshines and my heart always feels sore I feel the emotion behind the music. Its just Beautiful!

[zapcatzach]

@VERACITYxv im sorry to hear about your brother. you have my regards and prayers.

[AX15v]

@VERACITYxv Sorry about your brother :(

[dudamuser1991]

One of the best sounds of Muse

[evmuketa34521]

Man paris111191 you bailed on us weres the lyrics?

[cmommsen1]

it sounds very pink-Floydian.

[arosaooo]

i dont really know but they can also be justin beiber and his seven fans

[iamJosefine]

@arosaooo Don't even talk about justin "the big fag" bieber,he sounds like a girl and he is fking 17 yrs old or something like that!

Muse is amazing,Muse is REAL music!

[xILoveSmilesx]

this song was sung so well at Reading! awesome song!

[MandeepMandem]

@xILoveSmilesx I was there as well! The whole set they did was just amazing! Words cannot describe how beautiful the show they put on was

[deidara350]

8 peoples must die :S

[razzamatazzify]

fucking love muse SO FUCKING MUCH

[AnnaTheMuseFreak]

I only heard this song once when I first bought OoS, then 3 months later it was in my head and I only checked City of Delusion because I thought the intro was from City of Delusion. Then I started playing OoS on full blast on Friday, and I heard the song and I was like, I remember that?

[kennylepauvre]

Je l'adore, elle me fait beaucoup penser à Uno

[Sipper0]

I saw this at Leeds and now it's my favourite Muse song and I don't know why xD

[xsupernazix]

@Sipper0 aww you suck :( ill never be able to see this live lol

[EmperorPokey]

Am I the only one who was disappointed that this song was not in Alan Wake? I think it would have fit in the one of the end chapter titles perfectly!

[thecitizenme]

bass line sounds so funny lol, except for the chorus

[SinnloseNebenperson]

8 persons are Edward Cullen or other Twilight person

[arosaooo]

@SinnloseNebenperson i think they are *******and can also be ************

[SinnloseNebenperson]

@arosaooo ^^

[axsmindz]

i dont know why, when i hear this song, i imagine a couple waltzing during the apocalypse...

[Fozza217G]

@axsmindz Your not the only one LOl. 

[luno94k]

@axsmindz amazing imagery...

[KittenDoll218]

matt has a godly voice........

[zaur191]

check out my version of DarkShines with piano intro /watch?v=cjnfbQ63uA4

[zaur191]

3:14-3:46 Making my heart feel sore !

[mwa735]

The bassline, just badass !

[XxboVodxX]

Such an underrated masterpiece

[stacyresistancej]

@TheBigPedoSecret

Huh, good to know.

Thanks :)

[MsLizzieRae]

Very first Muse song I ever heard! Hooked ever since :)

[stacyresistancej]

@TheBigPedoSecret

Really?

[BlakeIsOWNAGE]

Best bass line Chris has ever written in y opinion. It gives the song such character that makes it stand out in the album.

Forever my most favorite album ever. Ever.

[0skydark]

Why does a Muse song has only 200'000 views and Justin Bieber or Lady gaga have million ones? In what a world do we live? :(

[ToukkaXX]

@0skydark because theres only one video of jb or gagas songs because they suck and a bunch of muse songs, because everyone wants to upload them :)

[Muser1803]

Only 19 days until I hear this at Reading! :D

[MetalLee00]

backsound : thriller MJ. :D!

[gerlachrose]

@Shougunner i have do deepy disagree with you. it adds a certain feel to the song that i love

[gerlachrose]

i love the piano part where it sounds like hes just hitting random keys :)

[Shougunner]

@gerlachrose meh, personally i think it kills the song a bit. sort of ruins the groove D:

[SlappaDeBassMon]

Bass carries this song very nicely. Chris' best bass line in my opinion.

[quinnisawesome1]

Origin of symmetry is one heck of an album. Every song is amazing

[spagetti001]

does anyone else think 'City of Delusion' is the "mature" version of this song?

[bumbisAle]

@spagetti001 I think it's other way around... Just my opinion though.

[bLink4900]

DarKsHiNeSs

[husseinahmed95]

have always loved and will always love Muse! - a one great song, i wish they have released it as a single, it would've kicked some butts! :)

[gladthisnamewasfree]

this album was so good, darkshines, micro cuts, space dementia. So many amazing songs.

[thesIeepywiIIow]

love the intensity in the whole song, especially 4:15

[XXFancyPantsJrXX]

this feels bad ass blasting in my head phones

[ParorouCrystalFlower]

This is chaotic sexy. Oh yes, epic eargasms.

[carmenmaria94]

/watch?v=AA5gC6TR15A&feature=c­hannel_video_title

[anya9rock]

how can someone dislike Muse???? anyway, <3 Muse,Greece

[blacklight131390]

i dont get it, why are there no popular videos for dark shines? its a good song and if you look up hysteria, it has millions

[MUSEstl314]

@blacklight131390 Hysteria was a single on a better known album. Dark Shines is a non single on an earlier album that's lesser known around the world and wasn't even released in the US until 2005

[AirWaterLandBuffalo]

@blacklight131390 It's also only a bonus track to said album.

[letiquia]

@AirWaterLandBuffalo Actually it did come in the album...Futurism was the extra song on the Japanese version...^_^ CHEERS!!!

[TBseric]

MUSE <3

[cookielover734]

@Koryo8 hmm... I've never really thought of it like that before, but now you mention it, it probably is about rape or something along those lines.

[Muddrelks]

the guitar part at about 3:15 is soooo damn sexy yet mysterious

[Koryo8]

am i wrong or are the lyrics implying forced sexual intercourse with a virgin?

[nicfradd]

@Koryo8 i think it might be about doing drugs but not sure

[killerkite333]

for the last time, dark will shine. Reading/Leeds 2011.

[Henares9]

Piano at 2:02 is like SEX

[kenyasong]

@Henares9 more like a rape or slaughter

[cpriicorn]

This song makes my heart feel sore, because it's gooooooooooood!

[VOELLIGsinnlos1234]

thumbs up for the scream at 4:14 :D

[EleDjdupa]

This song is one of the best I ever heard.

[aleith07]

@musemattbellamy bahahaha muy gracioso!! :D

[rococoness]

the poor piano xD

[monya1962]

The song is beautiful. It would be nice to have a video on this one...

[YankEZe911]

this song sounds like it would be in Invader Zim

[sizzlor108]

@YankEZe911 Any reference to invader zim has to be acknowledged.

[darkshinessyndrome]

Passing by, you light up my darkest skies...

[bloodylapinou]

02:02

I hope the piano's stayed alright...

[bluffed12]

157.500 views.... common

[142ldiferALTl144]

he, i have a longer version (is the video response).

[crhettbuttler1]

Matt!!! I hear you

and I wish I had your sexy screams

I wish I were you

[pretty8710]

I love you MUSE

[WafflesPlex]

Just saying, I don't think it's really a piano "mash", but rather discords/dissonance :)

[88HUSE]

I know love this song cos i totally know that feeling. The pain in your heart bringing you down, but it feels so good, so good that you hate yourself for feeling this way. thats what the chorus means to me anyway

[Traci9988]

this is fucking bliss! just as blissful as Showbiz

[TheMrKacang]

matt voice so different in this song..

[AssistandReject]

what an awesome song...so beautiful! and if u dont like my comment...well at least im not being irrelevant and talking about justin beiber! lol

[flubiedub]

@AssistandReject yes you are. ? lol

[kingoftheswing000]

the bass is SO groovy.......ah bliss..........

[Drazhar106]

@kingoftheswing000

No dark shines, bliss is a different song

[ChaoticFaeth22]

@Drazhar106 I'm pretty sure he said bliss in reference to feeling that emotion because of the bass. Not referring to the other song.

[TheNatty549]

fucking mad ass guitar solo

[olisanz10]

I'd live in "darkness" without muse's sounds

[bloodylapinou]

ho putain.

[jadecatbellamy882]

There's so much emotion in this song! :D

Gotta love Matt...

[CrazyLayful]

awh yeah babeh. =3

[TheYoWazUpGirl]

4:15 I don't know if any more emotion could've come out of Matts voice. <3

[morrisonclone]

orgasmic

[Fortunate1965]

Love MUSE, anyway, anyhow, always...



[TRAVL3R1]

microcuts is insanier

[TheGuitarrist97]

i am exploring muse right now.

i have listened to most of their songs, and i just discovered hullabaloo, there wasn't a SINGLE song i didn't think was GENIOUS

all muse songs are perfect and original in its own way!

that's why muse is my favourite band !!!!

[Omnichronicles]

@TheGuitarrist97 I'd take you to school at scrabble genius =P

[TheGuitarrist97]

@Omnichronicles lol, thank you (:

sorry for the ignorance though, what's scrabble genious?

[euterpe757]

@TheGuitarrist97 he's making a joke about your spelling of genius. :)

[TheGuitarrist97]

@euterpe757 lol, ok, i see xD

im portuguese, it's kinda normal to make these small errors, i know it's not like that, but i didn't notice xD

[candyfloss362]

call me mad but this song gives me goosebumps

[MrBgibbi]

@candyfloss362 MAD

[MadMetalSlayer]

DAMN DAT BASS IZ FUNKY lol

[aloula97]

o.O the awesomeness is too great for my ears

[holden0001]

*dun dun dun dun dun*

DAARRRK SHIIIINNNESSSSSS

[vkuso88]

[cordellchantack]

STAY GREEN MY TUMBS

[cordellchantack]

I JUST GAVE A LIST OF PEOPLE THE  GREEN TUMB

[TheMarianaSilvestre]

Dont'you want to get sucked into the music and stay there for ever and ever and ever?

[Knightofcydoniaa]

@TheMarianaSilvestre i would love that...u cant imagine how much..

[TheMarianaSilvestre]

@Knightofcydoniaa Oh believe me, I don't need to imagine.

[musemattbellamy]

How many Matt Bellamys does it take to change a light bulb? None, because dark shines! haha. Sorry, I know that's cheesy. :{)

[rachelsaunicorn]

@musemattbellamy The mustache at the end made up for it :D

[GuruVasile]

@musemattbellamy

I say also none cause Matt is so awesome it has his own personal God to do all of his biddings.

[queenluvr92]

@musemattbellamy And because gods don't need light bulbs.

[anaismuse]

3:14 till the end my favorite moment of all

[massivejack10]

4 people will burn in hell!

[garrethdavis]

unbelievable

[kingbowser99]

DARK SHINES!! BRINGING ME DOWN!!!!

Awesome.

[manco82]

I love that Muse is "the Twilight band".

[aloula97]

@manco82 Muse are NOT the twilight band. anyone that says otherwise... well... you'll get enough replies with enough imagination

[GreenTwiMuseDay12]

@manco82 I love Twilight so much :)

[seiphroth000]

@manco82 - Yer, lets forget that this song has been around longer than Twilight....



[GreenTwiMuseDay12]

@manco82 Exactly! I was thinking about that when I heard this song :)

[Ashe15S]

When I heard the bass riff the first time I jizzed my pants.

[JaimeinUK]

Just imagine that these men had lived for one day only to give us this song only...

This is epic.

And yet they present us with masterpieces again and again...

We don't have the right to complain at the demise of Muse when it occurs, AT ALL.

[Misishaxi]

@JaimeinUK you're completely right, actually. In September 2009, I should have just been thankful for what they gave me and been happy.

[musicResistances]

musewiki says that this song "includes a chaos piano" ....can someone tell me what is it?

[TheKerplode]

@musicResistances Not sure, but maybe the small solos after each chorus? Unless that's a synthesizer.

[musicResistances]

@TheKerplode i think it's the slow piano before chorus but i mean what's a chaos piano like?Is it a real instrument like violin or something?

[perecilloman1]

@musicResistances i think they are just chords that sound bad (on purpose of course)

[musicResistances]

@perecilloman1 yeah i know i just want to know what the instrument "chaos piano" is like..or if it is not a real instrument which are its characteristics through which it is named "chaos piano"...

[Jaffell]

Man, Matt's voice is just so powerful in this song. It's awesome. I also want to do what hazzathemazza said.

[Anofreze]

one of the best

[SlappaDeBassMon]

Chris Wolstenholme has some damn cool bass lines, this is one of my favourite to play.

[Spac3man88]

>.< it have to be MUSE!

[AsianSnowybrick]

Gotta love the piano at 0:50 :P
