I love this. the only problem i feel is the drums. i dont know why they just feel off. rather then that everything else is executed perfectly and just sounds wonderful. for a group of 14 ish year old. you guys did amazing!
for me as a drummer it seemed a little off in timing with the percussion... or maybe it was something else but something didnt seem right in the background
@sasukezeroordie ha, this is anything but pop music, they would probably get bored playing pop because the large majority is so basically written and mundane; it only existing to make money from fools. Its quite ironic how Matt is classically trained as a musician and you can see that influence in his songs, its kind of come full circle to performances like this
This is probably a stupid question for those of you who listen to orchestra a lot, but are any of the instruments mic'd to a P.A. or is everything just naturally amplified by the room they are in?
@scdjkg matt wouldnt like this video cause those players arent nothing like matt bellamy, and this is so lame version of very good electric guitar/drum song. and btw i dont care if u play violin ..
I miss those four holy characters: R, O, C & K. This is the most heartless song I ever heard an orchestra play... - Assassin has a story, a brutal story, this tells the story of Charly in the Chocolate-factory...
Kind of funny how the conductor didn't think to tell the orchestra that the violins needed to follow standard meter and the rest needed to play with swung eighths.
This is awful. Typically I love orchestras taking on more than just classical music but this rendition saps everything that makes Assassin and Muse so damn EPIC.
you gotta give props to this orchestra for taking this type of song on and making it work for themselves. sure its not the high energy fantasism(is that a word lol) that muse created and perform but this is very good imo and im a huge muse fan
It just doesn't give the same affect and feeling that the band actually does when they preform it... It's not too bad but it is missing something... No energy you could say?
I will admit that the orchestra are not by any means playing this perfectly, but I would like to point out that this was played by the Stoneleigh Youth Orchestra and not the Stoneleigh 'Symphony' Orchestra as it says in the description. So I think we can forgive some of the wrong notes and untidiness of some part of this arrangement since all the players are children and there are no adults or professionals at-all. I hope I have made my point clear.

@otharennaur Sure it's not perfect. But the arrangement is very good. It doesn't look like they are a professional orchestra so I think they did a good job.
It sounds off because they're out of time in bits and whoever transcribed the music put the emphasis on some of the wrong notes and wrote some parts wrong.
this is awesome guys!! stop complaining about how it sucks and that Muse plays it better. come on, seriously! of course Muse plays it better, i mean its MUSE! they made the song!! this is a cover, and they did it well, though it wasn't perfect. so stop complaining, and enjoy this masterpiece!!
There are so many technicals points about this "cover" that missed the mark entirely (let alone, the way it was arranged) that burn me up. (I probably can't even cover them all in two comments, but know that there were many.)
Was this a high school? You need a lot of finesse to successfully pull off this song, and this was not successful.
Nope no where near as good for two,wait three reasons. Now Matt's insane guitar or voice, no Chris's excellent bass, no Dominic's epic drumming. Also no distortion. So make it four.
Sounded good in the beggining with the violins but it fell apart after that, guess you just cant get better than an overdriven guiter... I am decreeing this a FAIL and a Muse FTW.
you know what i always think..that the person who directs the people is actually meaningless...none of the group is paying attention to him/her...only for the countdown...
Okay, the recent Muse albums have been shite. But this is just insane. I will never remove my "Matt is god" sticker from my guitar, but their past 2 albums are pale in comparison to their early stuff.
Why don't people like this? If dom's drumming was in this song it would simply suck because it doesn't fit... I think it's amazing this way, it's a complete new sound.
@viniliima I'll make this simple for you, since you don't come off as a very bright person.
PaugeStick's comment is his opinion. He believes that Muse plays better than this whole orchestra. Opinions are not fact. They are what people think about something.
Is there anything else so extraordinarily simple you don't understand?
@viniliima Also, I never said respect his opinion. You just think that, in your "MY OPINION IS THE GREATEST OPINION EVER" stupor, I said that you should respect his opinion. I didn't. So, ha. And now, I'm ending this little... conversation because it's stupid and you're wasting my time that I could be spending watching YouTube videos.
this is amazing as well knights of cydonia. it would be even amazing if they did the grand omega bosses edit's version instead, longer and more riffs ;) very very cool! i feel so proud for Muse! X)
