Muse - United States of Eurasia (live with orchestra at Children in Need 2009)

Beautifull live version of United States of Eurasia with BBC Orchestra during Children in Need 2009.

Muse are an English rock band from Teignmouth, Devon. Since its inception in 1994, Matthew Bellamy (lead vocals, guitars, piano, keyboards, keytar), Christopher Wolstenholme (bass, backing vocals, keyboards, guitars, harmonica), and Dominic Howard (drums, percussion, synthesizers, backing vocals, sampling) have comprised the group.
Muse is known for its energetic and extravagant live performances, and its idea of perfectionism on stage, having played over 950 gigs in 47 countries and its fusion of many music genres.

Muse's primary genres are progressive rock, space rock, and alternative rock, but they also integrate parts of electronica, indie, rock opera, hard rock, and metal. As the bands primary influences they named Radiohead, The Smashing Pumpkins, Nina Simone, The Beach Boys, Electric Light Orchestra, Led Zeppelin, Nirvana, Pink Floyd, Queen, Depeche Mode, Blur, Manic Street Preachers, Rage Against the Machine, Jeff Buckley, Oasis, Jimi Hendrix, Supergrass, and The London Suede.
Queen guitarist Brian May has praised Muse's work, calling the band "extraordinary musicians" who "let their madness show through, always a good thing in an artist." In particular, Dominic Howard noted the influence of Queen on "United States of Eurasia."

Many Muse songs are recognizable by lead vocalist Matthew Bellamy's use of falsetto and vibrato. As a guitarist, Bellamy often utilizes arpeggio and pitch-shift effects to create a more "electric" sound, citing Jimi Hendrix and Rage Against The Machine guitarist Tom Morello as influences for this method.
