Not many people know what the song is really about, not even many Muse fans. Matt has said (on one occasion about 22 years ago) that the song is about admiring how a child can radiate happiness. "Everything about you resonates happiness". Just pure joy and bliss, without having to worry about anything, without any adult responsibilites, without having been exposed to stuff in life yet. And he said that he misses that feeling of being a child and would want to experience it again as an adult. "Everything about you is so easy to love, they're watching you from above" literally means adults looking down at children and loving them. "Everything about you is how I'd wanna be, your freedom comes naturally". A child can be completely in the moment, completely free, and be happy. And Matt envies that. "Everything about you pains my envying". He wants that for himself. "Give me all the peace and joy in your mind, I want the peace and joy in your mind". We've all had that when we were kids, but we grew out of it slowly. We can remember things from our childhood, but none of us really remember what it felt like being a child and what that carefree state of mind was like. "Your soul can't hate anything". A child is incapable of hating anything or anyone the same way adults are. If something hurts a child, they might cry for a minute, but they will forget it in an instant and go on living their blissful, happy existence without growing to hate it. Another interesting thing is that the background synth track is pretty much stolen from the theme music to a 1992 kids video game called Top Gear for the Super Nintendo (not that anyone ever sued Matt over it). Literally a game for kids. And a third interesting fact: In the early 2000's, they used to play this song live all the time with those huge balloons unleashed upon the audience about halfway through the song. Those balloons are literally something that kids would go crazy over, not adults, because adults don't care about balloons. Kids would jump up and down out of joy if they had balloons like that. But so did the audience. For a brief moment, the people in the audience got to feel that bliss and joy of being a child, lost in the present moment. All in all, it's a song about kids! :D
It is also about how many adults want to consume that purity. Maybe it wasn't on purpose but adults who keep their purity get preyed on by so many jealous ppl.
Freaking heck you crazies. They're bursting with so much energy in their early 2000s live shows, it's freaking infectious. Whenever I watch one I feel like I could run a mile in a minute.
This was recored 9 years ago approximately 350 miles away from where I am now, I've seen this video hundreds of times before and yet every time I watch it sends chills down my spine! Everyone who was there for that concert had the most incredible experience and I will envy them for ever. TUUUUUUUNE!!!
I love this song and I love MUSE.. the band has always fun doing live shows and they always put so much energy and feeling into it.. the vibe in the crowd and even in the air is incredible. I really admire that.. :)
I like how they start off with the song. I even think it's better than the studio version. It's starts off calm, then goes BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SYNTHESIZERS, DRUMS, BASSLINE, AND GUITAR = TOTAL BLISS. WHAT MORE CAN YOU GET FROM THIS LIVE VERSION????? It's simply a rare jewel.
The DVD is TOTALLY WORTH IT, AND THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT IT. Every song in the set list is played exquisitely and much more better than the studio version. Take a look at Bliss! It's start in the live version changes everything that the studio version has done. It makes much more impact as it goes all out with the synthesizers, guitar, bass, and drums from which it came from as an unexpected calm, steady intro.
when you say you want to be famous everybody tells you it's a hard life, but when you can do a concert like this you know you'd do everything for it, everything about this it's how i wanna be
its such a shame that muse have gone down hill since this was filmed, i mean 'i belong to you' and 'neutron star collision don';t sent shivers down your spine like this
I'm sitting in front of my computer watching a performance thousands of miles (or kilometers) away from the site of this performance... and the amount of energy I get from it is phenomonal... I wondered how the live people at this survived...
Amazing. Pure musical genius. That poor drum set! But still amazing. Tear worthy even. Gorgeous. No words can describe it! Love it, that's all that matters :D
Things like this are just so great I wonder if Muse is just a completely awsome figment of my imagination. Okay...I little dramatic but still. Muse forever!!!
I got rejected to this song about 6 months ago, I really thought I had something with her y'know, it felt special, everytime I listen now I think of her, it's hard to listen to a song with so many mixed feelings attached. When I hear the song I just think about what I could've had, and it gets me everytime. The raw emotion of the song hits me somewhere inside, and I feel a pang of regret for not being patient, for not getting to know her better. I've got over it in every other way, problem is, I love this song too much to let go of. I have a partner now, and I'm happy, but a part of me will always hurt when thinking of how low I felt at that moment in time, if I'd just left it a little longer, I probably would feel ok listening to this song, I'd have probably had a chance. I'm in a happy relationship, but I can't even bring myself to talk to her now, I miss having her as a friend, I can get over my feelings for her, but we've drifted and I don't know what to do, I'm too awkward to simply say it, and talking to my boyfriend now will just make me feel worse, I don't want sympathy, I just need to say something, even on some random part of the internet. O hit a low point in my life recently, and my boyfriend is the only thing that's stopped me from leaving. Sorry for the comment, I needed to get it out of my system.

I hate when people are saying, that Matt and God are the same person! Like yes, he's really good, but still he is not Matt!

Man what a great comment. Thank you. And of course, all hail Muse, what a band..
It is also about how many adults want to consume that purity.
Maybe it wasn't on purpose but adults who keep their purity get preyed on by so many jealous ppl.
That is intense.
Bliss, album version awesome but when it's live it takes it to whole other level.
Never have I felt the pure and raw emotion of a band so much in one song
This was the concert in 2001 that introduce me to this band, amazing skills and emotion.
This is what happiness looks like!
just perfection
Alessia 98 bliss
This is the fucking's coldplay's clocks 2:42
Clocks has been released after bliss
@@nutriarider352 for ur information, Bliss came out on 2001, clocks came out on 2002 🤷
@nutriarider352 it's not even the same progression you dope. It's literally just arpeggios in the same time signature as clocks 🙄 Epic fail comment
everything about muse is so easy to love
Olá
4:50 Muse knew they're living their dream as a band so they just had to break everything to celebrate it.
High quality is relative when it was filmed with a potato but still looks beautiful
iKiel2012 It's actually more than 13 fps and that's already impressive
Freaking heck you crazies. They're bursting with so much energy in their early 2000s live shows, it's freaking infectious. Whenever I watch one I feel like I could run a mile in a minute.
lol matt jumps and dom while chris pushes the kit over!! Haha! They have so much fun when theyre performing, great to watch!!! :D
3:38 Love this moment xD
This was recored 9 years ago approximately 350 miles away from where I am now, I've seen this video hundreds of times before and yet every time I watch it sends chills down my spine! Everyone who was there for that concert had the most incredible experience and I will envy them for ever. TUUUUUUUNE!!!
this is the best performance of bliss live i have heard!!
I love Hullabaloo. Energizes me!!!
Bliss is one of my favorite songs
As the most quiet member, it's fun to see Chris being chaotic in his younger days on stage. The way he carried Matt makes me laugh so hard 😂
No alcanzan las palabras para describir lo que expresan, gracias totales
this is how you end a show. I really missed this badass Muse. :'(
for only 360p, this is the highest quality band i've ever seen!
I've never seen them so happy. Especially Christopher :P. That's what bliss is all about, right?
the bass in this is just thumpin man those variations in the chorus are soooo good
I love this song and I love MUSE.. the band has always fun doing live shows and they always put so much energy and feeling into it.. the vibe in the crowd and even in the air is incredible. I really admire that.. :)
could some one make an audio file of this video, this is my favorite version of bliss, it's so..... GREAT!!!
One of the best Muse songs, so glad they've been playing it and also MOTP in gigs this year :D
3:42, bass is less sharp than guitar
Such an amazing performance :) I love how Matt goes mad at the end and jumps on Chris, aswell as Dom's drum kit lmao they are true gods :D
wish they threw this in setlists more often today, but all in all can't complain, at least I get to see them live!
french audiance is amazing
I like how they start off with the song. I even think it's better than the studio version. It's starts off calm, then goes BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SYNTHESIZERS, DRUMS, BASSLINE, AND GUITAR = TOTAL BLISS. WHAT MORE CAN YOU GET FROM THIS LIVE VERSION????? It's simply a rare jewel.
PURE ENERGY AND ECSTASY!!!

It makes much more impact as it goes all out with the synthesizers, guitar, bass, and drums from which it came from as an unexpected calm, steady intro.
i love how they completely destroy the stage when they're done! muse is the best!
the most incredible thing about this performance is the bass pedal staying on the bass drum at the end!!
when you say you want to be famous everybody tells you it's a hard life, but when you can do a concert like this you know you'd do everything for it, everything about this it's how i wanna be
i think this was probably one of their best songs performed live and the guitar solo was perfect
i love how he plays the solo and then just starts to crush the balloons.
Best band of the last 10 years!!!
God freaking bless Muse!!!
how can you NOT love this?! i've got goosebumps, i'm sweating like a prostitute in a church and my heart is racing. Dude, i love muse!
The way this song kicks in is amazing
the final riff is awsome!
this one's wonderful - I love the end and that guitar solo, improvising...
its such a shame that muse have gone down hill since this was filmed, i mean 'i belong to you' and 'neutron star collision don';t sent shivers down your spine like this
@drummer1269 I cried with happiness when i watched them live for the first time, they are so brilliantxx
I'm sitting in front of my computer watching a performance thousands of miles (or kilometers) away from the site of this performance... and the amount of energy I get from it is phenomonal... I wondered how the live people at this survived...
That'll be the end of that Drum Kit then... LOL. What a fucking great performance, I've never seen anything like it, it was just totally mental!!!
never will we see MUSE this raw and epic again...so unfortunate that I didn't know them back in the early 2000s when they were still this insane :((((
Muse, radiohead and coldplay in that order
Why i didnt born in that era
That show was perfect
A brilliant song one of my faves
only muse could do that, thata why we love them!!!
taken from the best live dvd ever.....
This proves originality isn't dead!!!
Doctor says you have 6 minutes to live, ok I already know what to listen to.
If anyone asks you why muse has won all there live band awards... Just simply show them this video.
Muse........ Fucking awesome.....
3:37 = Bliss, right there.
Best version ever!!!
NO words to describe that. Amazing
Best performance ever!!!
they`re so crazy... love them^^
How can be Clocks from Coldplay, when Matt Bellamy played it an year before? 2:41
He still is and always will be.
this is my favorite muse song :) of the album... ;)
Always spine thrillingly amazing!!
miss that days U_U
muse is a pretty good band....
HAHA UNDERSTATEMENT OF THE YEAR

That has got to be one of the bst endings EVER! :D
if god can listen to music , Muse would be his favourite band. !

poor dom.. missing out on all the balloon popping action! :(
You don´t know what living means untill you have been to a muse concert

I watch this daily...and no I'm not kidding
oh man the atmosphere at that place must have been electric.

@SpanienFlyer Estan to locoooss!!
Amazing. Pure musical genius. That poor drum set! But still amazing. Tear worthy even. Gorgeous. No words can describe it! Love it, that's all that matters :D
Things like this are just so great I wonder if Muse is just a completely awsome figment of my imagination.
Okay...I little dramatic but still. Muse forever!!!
This just cheers my soul.
saw them at the o2 last night, first time in six years. jesus it was bad. watching this to cleanse my soul.
farroj04 saw them too and thought it was one of the best performances ive seen
@theamazingzivmaster omg....you use cba...respect
Best version ❤️👍
And that´s a true rock band my students.!
Cool performance :)))
Muse, my love.
awesome best performance ever, the end was so funny
When God hears them play this song he says "but I already gave you all the bliss in the world, how else would you be so awesome?!"
I'd say Citizen Erased is the best song of this decade. Live or not. And one of the 10 best songs of all time.
They used to be so much fun. Now they don't do these kind of silly things anymore...I miss them the way they were before *cries*
they were crazier back then, but not better.
Have you listened to them lately?
Muse deserve best band in the universe
aww dang it, that was our first song!
best blissn ever played i love matts smirk at 4:10 lol
Okay, time to finish the chorus of this s- OH WAIT A BALLOON
Gunna go see them in May, shitting myself in excitement
hell yea im with ya with that one man
the end is mindblowing
That's how you finish a concert.

@rolisac matt is one of the best live vocalists around the world, his improvisation and madness make it unique! ♥ ♥
