The music's a bit......well.....strange...it reminds me of something ...but I can't think what......since opera and classics are my thing how would one describe this......apart from............................
How are you?! I'm as dreadful a correspondent as ever *cringe*, but I love the peeps here and miss y'all when I'm away.
I instantly loved the first part of that tune when I first heard it a few days ago, but wasn't quite sure about the louder/heavier part that comes later on. After 3 days of listening, though, I'm entirely besotted! I love the way they've mixed heavy/classical/electronic up together :)
I read on H/W earlier today that Fox are planning to make some further episodes in this series after all (having read last week that they were going to dump it, and move straight to series 5). However... I've given way to temptation and watched all teh Torchwood episodes, and become a bit addicted to the extremely sexy Captain Jack *grin*. Have you watched Torchwood at all?
**hugs you**
p.s. I'm so glad you like my icon! The ears are a little weird, but... c'est la vie :)
OMFG................have I watched Torchwood?????????? Is the Pope Catholic???? Podga....my G/N beta described him.... '.....yummy, omnisexual studpuppiest of all studpuppies.....' get the drift?
Gorra go babe....going out in three minutes and my hair's still wringing wet!!!!
Oooh Muse! I love them! I actually have the Origin Of Symmetry album on which they released Micro Cuts. From that album, I also love Bliss very much.
OoS is their strangest album, though. I can't decide if I like Showbiz or Absolution better (that's the first and the third album), but I was a little disappointed by Black Holes and Revelations (the most recent album). It seemed like they'd lost a lot of their originality.
I've seen them live twice in the last year, and they're an AMAZING live show. Lots of lights and flashy neon things and shiny stage decoration, and a beautiful sound. If you ever get the chance, go see them!

I'm so glad you love them too! I'm getting Origin of Symmetry too, but maybe I'll also check out the other ones you've mentioned. I'll certainly go and have a listen to Bliss after I've written this. I saw Micro Cuts described as the 'Marmite' track somewhere on the internet earlier today i.e. the track that people either love or hate. I'd rather hoped that the whole album was exactly like that, but apparently not.
Francesca, who now works with me, has also seen them live twice, and she also said they were the very best live band :) Ta v. much for the recommendation. I'm definitely going to seek them out now :)
If you want me to, I could rip the four Muse albums to my computer and upload them for you to megaupload or sendspace. Then you could have a listen and decide which song you want to acquire, and which don't strike your interest all that much.
Muse definitely is a love/hate thing, not only Micro Cuts. That one is maybe the most extreme example, but Muse is a taste that not everyone shares.
If you ever get into Doctor Who fandom, then I'll have to make you watch a Master video to Feeling Good, which is amazing. Muse is nice vidding material. Oh, and if you like Muse, you should check out Radiohead (if you don't know them already). Muse is often compared to them. And they're playing in London in July (Radiohead that is. Not Muse.)
Hello Piglet! Guess what, if you go to cuteoverload.com, you can see some wonderful piggly pictures. They are on February 21, if they aren't on the main page anymore by the time you get there.

That would be brill, TVM! Yes please.
Master video
Master as in The Master? I'd love to see that!
I've not really listened to any Radiohead, but I'll go and take a look, thanks.
Must is nice vidding material.
Heh. I was thinking about a H/W angsty Muse vid y/day, but I'll probably not get round to it. Still...
