+Roreo B well i can assure you they're not lip synced, Matt Bellamy (the lead singer) has a pretty good range and can still hit notes higher than the original song. they just sound as good as they do in the studio
It's incomprehensible how he can pull that falsetto off live every time while playing guitar. You'd think it could only be done in a studio setting under perfect conditions. Well, I guess that's why they're legends.
I was pointing out to this song in general, but boy you're right! Probably the best outro of the Knights of cydonia at Reading 06. I just wish it started with that intro too
Man, that's f**king Ennio Morricone, one of (if not the) best score composers. Please watch Once Upon A Time In The West by Sergio Leone, the best Western ever made. No exaggeration.
@@jonathanwalther I think Knights of Cydonia will remain the only song that could pull off this riff from Once Upon a Time in the West. It's just goes correct with this.
I saw this live at Sziget Festival in 2010. This was just THE very best ending to a rock concert ever. Even visually - with the lights flashing bright into the audience at the very end - it was like the stage just exploded. Usually, everyone would've gone "play one more", but after this, everyone was just like "whoaaa, okay, this is the perfect end. It can't get any better"
I have a feeling there’s quite a few extras in terms of musicians and electronic help that you don’t see on stage. Just listen to all the arpegiated synthesisers... that’s not being played on a guitar,bass or drums. Great performance but not from just the three of them.
I was in their live show in Barcelona last night, the feeling of 40 thousand people thriving with this song, as well as with their other masterpieces, is something that can't simply be explained! Thank you Muse!
@@Whovian1029 I think we got our ideas crossed! I call a film a film, you may call a film a movie! I agree with you that a series would have worked given the episodic nature of the book, but as a film/movie, no. Saying that, I enjoyed the film immensely.
@@jerrymouse346 Oh, I see. Yes, I agree it would have been near impossible to turn the book into a feature-length film. It's way too sporadic and episodic.
Gosh, I remember the very first moment I fell in love with Muse. I saw the film clip to 'Bliss' on RAGE in Australia at about 5am on a Sunday. I knew then, that I would forever be a die hard fan, and would have to battle the masses and bad internet connections for ticket sales, just to have the opportunity to see them live on stage. To this day I have seen them 5 times and every stage show has been better than the last. Looking forward to December 2013 when they play Brisbane!! YEEOW!!
Why does Matt make it so that it looks like he isn’t even trying? Like, this is just.. pure *Skill* Like, he sings, and plays the guitar with incredible skill, without even looking at the guitar to make sure he is hitting the right notes. It’s insane!
Only people who ever did music and sound work, especially on big stages, will know exactly how much preparation, expertise and talent it takes for a band and a sound engineer to replicate this song's sound and instrument mix so perfectly like in the studio version.
they literally are. Saw them 8times (27/10/12 02 Arena London, 25/05/2013 Emirates Stadium London, 21/06/2013 & 22/06/2013 Stade de France Paris, 16/07/2015 Festival des Vieilles Charrues Carhaix, 03/03/2016 Bercy Paris, 18/04/2016 SSE Hydro Glasgow, 28/06/2016 Fan Zone Euroe Champs de Mars Paris) and every time I seen them they are even better. they were made to be a live band !!!
I saw them at the Emirates a week before this and they were insane! I also went to their War Child gig a few months ago and that was equally awesome! They are one of the best live bands ever!
This song is a crazy and brave attack to rock and alternative as it spreads a deep sense of fight and energy; I mightn't shirk this delightful vibe which seems to be a reward to the classic artists and to that epic feeling we were waiting for. Honestly I'd listen to it on repeat because the length doesn't make any bias, it all sums up Muse flawlessness and dedication. After listening to this album I noticed it features utterly the perspectives of the sound at that time and the right way to drive out those who plot to underrate such a great album!
That's what I always think, this guy is an incredible musician, playing multiple instruments (incl. voice) to perfection. And as a drummer I really admire the tightness of the rhythm section. The drummer is not the most versatile on the planet, but he is a living metronome. It's a treat to listen.
have to say I am officially a fan of Muse now...this is a recent conversion, but an inevitable one. Muse is unique...there is really no sound out there near what they are doing Hope to see more to come soon
The tie-in to this song is at the end of the little story. The year is 2062 alien scouts return to earth and make a report on what they consider, "highly coordinated aggressive crowd behavior". They note that before large challenges of athleticism anthems are played which make entire masses of people both enraged and exibit coordinated signs of aggression. The most popular of which is the clapping of hands, stomping of feet, shouts of the phrase, "we will rock you" which roughly translates to: your corporeal matter will turn to stone at our bidding; or we shall hurl asteroids at you. In the alien language. Some aliens are afraid, many chalk these words up to be superstition. A second alien comes and shoes a report on graves. Graveyards tombstones and caskets. Then he finishes with his discovery that the pyramids and other great stone structures are also graves. A few more of the aliens start to become superstitious and even some of the most empirical of them admit that while they don't think we are capable of turning our enemies into rocks they have no idea why human brains contain so many different ways of importing computing and exporting information. A third alien comes in with his, "Archive of the Human Anthems" The formation of chords and structure of music is very reminiscent of a language spoken by a race of aliens that had mysteriously disappeared around when they believe the pyramids were constructed. Some superstitions have taken hold completely of the more fical leaders. They hear Beethoven's fifth and it sounds strangely close to last message sent out by the exploratory group. They hear we will rock you and are reminded of the simultaneous actions of millions of people. People who have thousands of seemingly unnecessary parts in their brains. Many of them are already scared out of their minds. The chief of sciences and the head of machinery laugh at all their political opponents' fear. Many of their students stand by but stay respectful to their superiors. The third soundtrack they listen to is this song. They are all afraid. A vote is held before the song is even finished. They decide to go see what's happening in the other arm of the milky way.
I was there, somewhere in the middle, and I can tell you the crowd was good, and esp. so during KoC! People were jumping like crazy, everything went mental! I thought it was amazing for a "side gig", had an absolute blast!
Can't wait for Muse to play Brisbane in December. It is going to be amazing. I know a bouncer at the entertainment centre and he said Muse was ranked fifth best live concert he has ever seen at the entertainment centre after 10 years of him working there.
For a modern prog-rock band I am impressed by the size of their audience. Gives me hope that great music will once again prevail. Keep that momentum Muse. Let it rain down!
I went to Emirates 2 weeks ago, to WWz premiere right in front of the stage and in 2 weeks will be in South of france for another concert!! Muse Muse Muse!!!
How are they not as globally famous as Coldplay is beyond me. Matt Bellamy is underrated and underappreciated as hell
Too complicated music for sheeps😉
I disagree. Muse is freaking huge
Coldplay follows the market
@@agassifathurisma3865 muse didn't sell out to the LGBTQ community
MUSE is huggee bro. Not as commercially big as Coldplay but they’re one of best in the world. Atleast in Top 15
8 years later... Still hitting the high notes, still playing this on gh3
+The Real Novapolitan The high notes seem super lip syncd in this.
+Roreo B Have you even heard the original? The high notes are nothing like the live version.
+Roreo B well i can assure you they're not lip synced, Matt Bellamy (the lead singer) has a pretty good range and can still hit notes higher than the original song. they just sound as good as they do in the studio
+Roreo B they hate lip sync so why they would do that? please don't be ignorance.
Guitar hero World Tour ** ;)
It's incomprehensible how he can pull that falsetto off live every time while playing guitar. You'd think it could only be done in a studio setting under perfect conditions.
Well, I guess that's why they're legends.
Oh, he's fucked it up, don't worry about that.
Falsettos require very little effort, it's the one thing about this that he's unlikely to fuck up
Hes freaking amazing!
@Colin Baker you've never been to a Muse concert to say stuff like this mate
@@brothersofcouilles562 yeah, they're pretty well known to not use backingtracks and stuff like that...
When the studio version is flawless and perfect...and live is even better....no words....
i really don't know if anything can be more epic than the intro of this song, this song, the lyrics, the guitar, the muse
Knights of Cydonia at Reading '06 with Space Dementia outro
I was pointing out to this song in general, but boy you're right! Probably the best outro of the Knights of cydonia at Reading 06. I just wish it started with that intro too
Man, that's f**king Ennio Morricone, one of (if not the) best score composers. Please watch Once Upon A Time In The West by Sergio Leone, the best Western ever made. No exaggeration.
@@jonathanwalther I think Knights of Cydonia will remain the only song that could pull off this riff from Once Upon a Time in the West.
It's just goes correct with this.
sounds like ur aMUSEd haha

chris's backup vocal is absolutely beautiful too!
I'm curious to hear what Chris' voice is really like...for live shows backing vocals are also provided by the keyboard player.
"Save Me" and "Liquid State" on 2nd Law album are both sung by Chris entirely
This is the hymn for all the MUSE's fans... I love this song!!!!!
Hymn* but yes I do agree this is was and always will be my favourite muse song.
GetALife4938 he said hymn
Thanks, but when i posted my comment i wrote "himn" so i changed it to the right form. Have a good day!
Hmm dunno, newborn or plug in baby for me
Mike Roberts plug in Baby gotta be
The greatest live band that coming in the late 90s. Still the greatest today. I love Muse.
Muse Is One Of The Only Bands I’ve Heard Of That Sounds A Lot Better Live Than A Regular Music Recording.
Fantastic Job.
3:58 until he started singing, but honestly I wouldn’t of cared less if the intro was an hour long. Song’s brilliant.
you actually care about the singing ?
When you can sound like your record live your doing something right.
If not actually better live but I agree with your comment
you’re
I have a feeling there’s quite a few extras in terms of musicians and electronic help that you don’t see on stage. Just listen to all the arpegiated synthesisers... that’s not being played on a guitar,bass or drums. Great performance but not from just the three of them.
Mike Smith they have a keyboardist, and he’s very much on the stage
Benjamin thanks for the insight. I still can’t see more than three guys in the limelight on this stage, where are they hiding?
Probably one of the best live performances ever by any band. The level of skill is crazy high.
I was in their live show in Barcelona last night, the feeling of 40 thousand people thriving with this song, as well as with their other masterpieces, is something that can't simply be explained! Thank you Muse!
This Song is just a Battle from Matt against his Guitar „Who can get higher“ 😂
That sounds kinda wrong
@@dizzy6947 Easy, just a joke. I get it
Everytime I slightly forget how awesome Muse are, I just watch this performance! One of the best ever!
I was there. Tickets were free. I think they only play 8 songs but you can't complain when you didn't have to pay.
@@andyspurgin1554 Yeah! I lived in London at the time but somehow I always missed these free events! Only found out after it happened! 😅
This band is far too good for a movie like this
Heh. Ya ever hear of Twilight? ;-p
The film was actually very good. I think the book was unfilmable to tell you the truth!
jerry mouse The book was very easily filmable. It should have been a miniseries with each interview being an episode.
@@Whovian1029 I think we got our ideas crossed! I call a film a film, you may call a film a movie! I agree with you that a series would have worked given the episodic nature of the book, but as a film/movie, no. Saying that, I enjoyed the film immensely.
@@jerrymouse346 Oh, I see. Yes, I agree it would have been near impossible to turn the book into a feature-length film. It's way too sporadic and episodic.
Is it just me or does Matt really like the colour red?
It's his favorite color in case you hadn't noticed that already ;)
LabradorIndependent Who doesnt like red
@@dude6966 someone that like other color?
Project Riza yeah but does that mean the person doesn’t like red
Black and red are his favorite colors
Awesome Improvisation at 5:05 & 7:30
not really improvisation since that outro has been used for most Knights performances during the 2nd Law Tour
Well... Are just two different guitar licks
Sounds like halo
@@UNKN0WNSHAD0W halo uses this song :v:

gotta love rage
yeah Brisbane 2013 is gonna be lit 🔥
Chris and John frusciante are the best backing vocalist in rock ever!
PaulGilbertrulezzz
Jason Newsted is. But yeah, I love Chris.
Brian May or Roger Taylor?
Listen to John's solo stuff and recomment
Sambora too
better than the movie
Finski Zoro
Better than any movie*
@@skann9048 nah man you're over-exaggerating
yah righ LOL! nobody can make it sound like Ennio Morricone buddy
Non dire sciocchezze
@@jotemerario8206 beh più o meno...
I can't believe I've seen this song peformed 9 times and been blown away every single time!
Why does Matt make it so that it looks like he isn’t even trying?
Like, this is just.. pure *Skill*
Like, he sings, and plays the guitar with incredible skill, without even looking at the guitar to make sure he is hitting the right notes.
It’s insane!
I like how the they do the music from "once upon a time in the west" in the beginning
I was there, 10 years ago - time flies. Great gig, was a bit short, but can't complain for a freebie
BEST band on earth !!!!!!
Only who really knows, know.
yaaaah...the best ever
err queen? by which inspired matt in most of his songs
Pretty sure "most" weren't inspired by Queen, they have their entirely own style
You guys are wrong www.musewiki.org/Queen . Muse claim Queen is the best band
Next to Queen, I would really like to see Muse live. One of the best live act I've ever seen in ages
Well good news Queen and Muse are touring this year
Only people who ever did music and sound work, especially on big stages, will know exactly how much preparation, expertise and talent it takes for a band and a sound engineer to replicate this song's sound and instrument mix so perfectly like in the studio version.
holy fuck they seem like an amazing live band
Trust me they are saw them in april
so did I i saw them in manchester.
they literally are. Saw them 8times (27/10/12 02 Arena London, 25/05/2013 Emirates Stadium London, 21/06/2013 & 22/06/2013 Stade de France Paris, 16/07/2015 Festival des Vieilles Charrues Carhaix, 03/03/2016 Bercy Paris, 18/04/2016 SSE Hydro Glasgow, 28/06/2016 Fan Zone Euroe Champs de Mars Paris) and every time I seen them they are even better. they were made to be a live band !!!
VideoGameMaster2011 best band iv ever seen live i suggest u go to one of there concerts
what planet are you from! Muse is the best rock band
The best band in the world by far!❤
So obsessed with Dominic and his fucking incredible drumming skills.
I saw them at the Emirates a week before this and they were insane! I also went to their War Child gig a few months ago and that was equally awesome! They are one of the best live bands ever!
This is a modified version of the theme for the movie "Once upon A Time In The West" by my favorite composer, Ennio Morricone
@Tir mcdohl Indeed. You a fan of sergio Leone?
They do have a large fan base, they are one of the biggest alternative rock bands out there, but yeah. They deserve ALOT more
I love this song! The intro on this version is real art!
This song is a crazy and brave attack to rock and alternative as it spreads a deep sense of fight and energy; I mightn't shirk this delightful vibe which seems to be a reward to the classic artists and to that epic feeling we were waiting for.

After listening to this album I noticed it features utterly the perspectives of the sound at that time and the right way to drive out those who plot to underrate such a great album!
It's a spaghetti western pastiche, and a good one, but crazy and brave? From an established band? No.
@@DaveDexterMusic Exactly. Always reminded me of "The man with the harmonica" by Ennio Morricone
everyone there came to see Muse, not the movie
Guitar Hero introduced me to this wonderful song!!
Every performance of KoC gives me the chills. But *this* one is making me cry like a teenaged girl.
It’s one of the best live versions and best mixes, I agree
Matt performing,playing guitar it's too easy for him,it's like Ronaldinho playing football..
That's what I always think, this guy is an incredible musician, playing multiple instruments (incl. voice) to perfection. And as a drummer I really admire the tightness of the rhythm section. The drummer is not the most versatile on the planet, but he is a living metronome. It's a treat to listen.
How he can jump around and still play perfectly is incredible.
Soccer*
Jakob Sprague no football
hahhahaha
I've said it before and I'll keep saying it. Man that boy can play that guitar easier than people make toast
Chris is genuinely one of the coolest members of the band!
What a band Jesus... 🔥
3 dudes.. THAT’S IT!! Incredible
I swear this is one of the best bands I've found. It's like Prog Rock is back, but cooler. I love them.
Feels empty without the trumpets
^
The Cheesy Nachos then gets some trumpets in your life, boy
ruclips.net/video/qpZJqjtjD5o/видео.html trumpets
God I love the trumpet part to this
ikr
One of the best performances of Knights of Cydonia ever
It's from Once Upon A Time in the West (The Man With Harmonica).
I went to see them in stade de France, from wales!!!!!
brilliant group
Ennio Morricone, Once Upon a Time in the West!!!
Me too! That was my fourth Muse Gig in Three years! They just get better and better and then some more!!
have to say I am officially a fan of Muse now...this is a recent conversion, but an inevitable one.
Muse is unique...there is really no sound out there near what they are doing
Hope to see more to come soon
MATT! THANK YOU! Beautiful! LOVE MUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They should perform for Quentin Tarantino's movie
There are quite a few of those
Patrick - Destroyer of THOTS nice name?
No, they shouldn't
@@ramones-yq1wj why?
Lucas Wright he never answered why
I have seen Muse live a few times now. And every time that harmonica solo starts...
I'm speechless. This is a fuckin masterpiece. Can't wait to see them live
Gives me shivers every time I hear their live music... takes me back to the Vancouver show... best live show I have ever been to.
they're the best band ever!
wow!!!amazing quality!!!and you got it from all angles, even from above and behind-cool!!!thanks a lot for the upload!!!
I love MUSE !!!!
Muse were amazing live when I saw them a few months ago!!!
You know they don't know where the hell they are when Matt says "thank you for coming to see us" :P
playingforbritain Well...considering they're British and in London. I imagine they do know.
Mike They be from Devonshirrrrr. Nobbut knows nowt down tharrrr :P
I'm from Devon. And I was at that gig. Much offence taken!
Mike In that case, I humbly apologise that you were at that gig
This was after the movie, so he was saying that to the people who stuck around
Class act...Great songs, fantastic live show...
Omg I love Muse! :D
Happy Birthday Matt!!!! The best for you and you family.... I love Matt, I love MUSE,
Congratulation from VENEZUELA. you are genius awasome
6:02
YEEEEEHAHW
6:05...no comment!pure energy!!!
That intro from Ennio Morricone, fits surprisingly well
Ok, the Ennio Morricone cover before they ripped into KoD made my heart so frickin happy
Is he using.. the original Silver Mason?
That walk off whilst the guitar is still playing is badass

Love how this starts with the theme from Once Upon A Time in the West
Thanks to Guitar Hero 3 for letting Muse into my life!
this is perfect.. love muse♥♥
Morricone + Muse = Win
i have been to 3 and this was still my favourite...
Dont waste your time on me you're already the voice inside my head.
*yead
mydogrush wrong song my dude but I salute you all the same
awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HUGE Muse fan
You don't know who Ennio Morricone or Sergio Leone are? The Harmonica man piece goes everywhere and Sergio did some great westerns!
Gary Platts once upon a time in the west my friend, thats all ill say
I was there, somewhere in the middle, and I can tell you the crowd was good, and esp. so during KoC! People were jumping like crazy, everything went mental! I thought it was amazing for a "side gig", had an absolute blast!
i feel like that intro when the guitar comes in along with the harmonica does not get enough recognition
I’ve been 9 times on their shows. And I want more 🙏
Such a great song to set the pace for such a shitty movie
nice
Richard Loster good movie what
I was there. I spent the majority of the show gawping at the lights on the buildings. It was just stunning.
Ahhh, the stage is a Z. I zee what you did there.
Can't wait for Muse to play Brisbane in December. It is going to be amazing. I know a bouncer at the entertainment centre and he said Muse was ranked fifth best live concert he has ever seen at the entertainment centre after 10 years of him working there.
Matt es tan SEXY y PERFECTOOO!!!
I saw them in Amsterdam last Tuesday, it was epic!
For a modern prog-rock band I am impressed by the size of their audience. Gives me hope that great music will once again prevail. Keep that momentum Muse. Let it rain down!
I was in Manchester the night before this! Best live band in the world, simples
I think Matt sounds a little different
Oh, hello it's me again... forever fan here :) and still playing this on GH3 lol
How do I make this 100x louder?
Hack the speakers in your local walmart
I went to Emirates 2 weeks ago, to WWz premiere right in front of the stage and in 2 weeks will be in South of france for another concert!! Muse Muse Muse!!!
Once Upon a Time in the West :)
Matt's awesome beyond known words. He makes the other two bandmates look like mere backing musicians
esto si es música! :D
si señor 😎
His voice,this harmonic this bassist and drummer 🥺
