It's literally a perfect closer to a Muse gig. I've seen them live three times, and though I don't love them as passionately as I used to, every time the crowd goes WILD during this song and it gives me goosebumps

I was in a massive nightclub in Berlin when the DJ put this song on, starting with The vocal part halfway through.. everyone in the bar stopped in their tracks to Chant along, and when the guitar kicked in, EVERYONE jumped/moshed for two minutes straight, just like they were at a live show. Amazing song.

I think there was a criminally small amount of time dedicated to the geniusness of Dom’s drumming on this track. To have the underlying beat be a gallop is so integral to keeping the western feel to the song

Something to note about the Morricone inspiration is that this song is often preceded with his 'Man With a Harmonica' from Once Upon a Time in the West when Muse does a live show.

The experience of seeing this song live is like no other, say what you want about new muse but their live shows really know how to entertain. Good video! always love the effort you put in everything.

A small correction. Telstar was the second British song that reached No. 1 in the US. The first one was Stranger on the Shore by Mr. Acker Bilk.

You can't mention the radiophonic workshop and the Dr. Who theme without crediting Delia Derbyshire's insane talent. Truly a musical genius and pioneer. thanks for pointing this out though, Muse have been my favourite band for a very long time and I never caught the radiophonic link before. Great video!

I recently attended a Muse gig (IT WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!) and the feeling of listening to Knights of Cydonia live just can't be described, the whole show was a lifetime experience. I was wondering if you 're gonna make a video about Muse, and I was very glad to see this one, it was really great, I didn't know about most of the stuff you presented (hope you're gonna make one about their new album, which is going to be released in a month, too!)! I really love your your work (the analysis, the graphics, the editing and the narration are flawless) and I hope you will keep posting these videos!!!!! As for my favourite Muse song, that must be New Born!

Came for "Knights of Cydonia" but stayed for your graphics and editing skills. Amazing content with amazing visuals.

As soon as you pointed out the "new" 4 horsemen I finally understood the outfits immediately. Paranoia is covered in eyeballs Intolerance is wearing blinders with a suit covered in religious symbols Narcissism is covered in mirrors Greed is wearing a suit of gold Wow, I never thought I would actually understand this album's art
