      I mean: there are counter videos where it's supposed to count all same things in one video. I thought of making such video but including Matt breathing in before every possible line.

      +Darren Mosley I'm reading their biography right now ^^ In this clip they were playing as Rocket Baby Dolls (fairly known in the ol' Muse fanbase), *BUT* this name was changed for the Battle of the Bands - as well as because they had developed their music to something not remniscent of their then current name - Gothic Plague.
      Apparently the gig turned into a mini-riot after Dom smashing the drums at the end of the show, and Muse were declared the out-and-out winners for "taking the piss".

And I think, effort and perseverance is what we see now. The talent is domething you develop, not something you're just born with. They had it in this video, they took it further and made it one of the best bands in the world.
