Make sure to like the video if you enjoyed it! I have a LOT more things that I'd add to an iceberg, so if you guys really enjoy this I could do a part 2 with more deep cuts.

hey I'm the original creator of this iceberg chart - thanks for making this video! I made it quite a while ago so I'm sure there are way more niche things that people will be mentioning in the comments haha

'the muse' refers to when muse went to " a quelli che il calcio" on Italian TV and exchanged musical instruments. For an Italian muser like me this video is wonderful. I managed to remember all the levels of the iceberg. I'm glad you included hate this and i ll love you, one of my favorite but unfortunately little known songs.🔥

11:29 I think it refers to that famous performance at some italian TV show where they were forced to playback and in revenge they swapped instruments. The announcer called them The Muse

Music icebergs overall aren't quite common, and I've ofc been waiting for a Muse one so kudos for making this

I can't remember what interview it was but Chris did say that Matt called him and just went "Listen to this: PWOPA PWOPA PWOPA PWOPA PWOPA PWOPA GANDA" when pitching a new song idea

Can’t believe the “Matt is an alien” theory wasn’t on here 🤣🤣🤣 Because there’s lots of good arguments to confirm it lol

2012 Olympics - their live performance from the opening ceremony was cut from the US audience for commercials. There was like 20 performers and literally Muse was the only one cut for commercials. I am still upset at NBC over this. I sat through that whole thing waiting for them.

Won tickets on the radio for the Evanescence and Muse concert. Muse was outright incredible to watch.

BRO. So. I’m pretty sure “the muse” is from that itallian tv show they went on where they switched roles and lip synced. So dom pretended to be Matt, Matt was on the drums etc. I believe it was because they didn’t wanna do the performance and were forced to. Just put “muse itallian tv show” into KZfaq it’s still there I believe And it’s very very funny

I'd personally put Showbiz down a tier. I feel like some casual fans don't even know that album exists and although it got most of its success in the UK, Feeling Good (which is in tier 2) is more well-known over here than pretty much the whole of Showbiz

I think "matt trying to kill dom" can also refer to that one infamous and hilarious tumblr post about matt "full on" trying to kill dom with a knife 💀💀 but considering that was loooong ago the tier could just be referring to regular deathly guitar throwing lmao

Matt's speech impediment is called "rhoticism" (trouble with the R sound, particularly after a consonant). He can nail R's okay some of the time or when he slows down - but he rarely slows down (he just is one of those people who thinks too fast for speech) 🤣 and he has particular trouble with R's immediately after other consonants, such as "pr" and "tr"

10:27 - about Dom's fashion. It also had an appearance on The Resistance tour - I think there were several gigs, in which Dom dressed up weird or unusual. The other thing is that in one making of video (I guess Neutron Star Collision) he also has a costume, an unusual costume.

13:27 Corey Taylor’s mask makes an appearance in the Music video for You Make Me Feel Like It’s Halloween, I’m guessing as an homage to the clip

As a Pwoper Muse fan im in wayyy deeper than tier 7 haha, but this was really cool and if youre a new fan this is kind of a nice introduction actually. I missed takeabow19 in this list though :P and also their refusal to do playback on live tv :D

surprised there wasn’t anything on the conspiracies and controversies of drones. hardly anything about chris either. would love to see more.

The fishing trip was part of the Hullabaloo bonus documentary!

Great iceberg, thought it'd mention Chris's alcohol problem and how it is showcased in Liquid State and Save Me songs

me realizing I know every single reference on the iceberg -

My sister came up with theory about twilight book series and its connection to muse because apparently Stephanie Myer's fav band is muse and she used to write fanfics before her novel maybe apparently slash yaoi ones and there's like weird love triangle going on between Bellamy(Bella) Howard(Edward) and Wolstenholme(Jacob)

Surprised the 'Dom Howard Loaf of Bread' didn't make Tier 7

Finally! I was waiting for someone to do one of these about Muse

18:00 I actually can't sing Micro Cuts quite well and it's definitely my biggest achievement in life

17:56 my god that nearly killed me, I couldn't stop laughing. It's basically the mood for the whole song. Jesus christ, that's great

Saw them live in Fort Worth. They sounded EXACTLY like the record. Absolutely awesome show

Clarification. In an interview, Matt said that it was for his ex and was never intended to be used for the Twilight movies. It just sounded appropriate for the movie.

Been a fan for nearly 10 years and it felt so good to remember all of these moments, also I believe Matt's socks could also be when he put socks on in the middle of an interview hsdhaksfka

Oh man where do I start. I remember being at school when Showbiz came out. Got me into Jeff Buckley. I saw them support Bush with Soulwax. I have all the original EPs and Nishe is my favourite song. Inspired me to play bass guitar.

please please please pLEASE do a part 2! like you said, i've never seen any muse icebergs and this was just so refreshing and cool to watch :D

Thanks for the vid! The "Sit the f*ck down" clip is so famous because of Matt's hilarious laugh. There are more clips of his laugh on YT. Would love to see another video including WOTPing and aliens! And their live shows.

Thanks for reminding me of the profane Feeling Good performance 😂😂😂😂

the fishing trip was part of the hullabaloo 2nd DVD which ccontains all sorts of behind the scenes from the tour and covvershoot (i think this was a special edition) the "sit the eff down" thing was also part of that DVD also, the hullabaloo soundtrack is not just edits, they are all the b-sides from the origin singles (plugin baby alone contains 5 additional tracks which are all on the sountrack)

let's not forget the mushrooms

oh! pwoper also refers to that same video of the guys on a fishing trip and matt saying something about catching a "pwoper fish"! :D

Matt is just plumping out and filling his skin, stretching those gaunt lines to a rosy roundness/smoothness. 😊

What a joyful video, I'm grinning so hard from start to finish, although I still want more... I want to believe a bigger iceberg is only a matter of time... Muse lore is hilarious! I can picture "Guiding Light sucks" up on the sky, then "Guiding Light is actually good" deep underwater!

11:29 to say "the Muse" was the Italian presenter Simona Ventura, in a program where they were forced to sing in playback. The video is hilarious kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i518h5Z32bbYkpc.html

The also played Adiago for string before Resistance during some of the gigs

Belldom is the funny bromance between Matt and Dom. Bellamy and Dom= Belldom lol 😂

I always sing along to micro cuts, it's too addicting

I think "the muse" maybe also came from a show they did in, I think Austin, that was end of the Absolution tour dvd. I'm pretty sure they were introduced as the muse and the song was Fury, it's been about 15 years since I watched it so might be wrong! I also remember Matt talking about how it was "proper fucking rock and roll" haha

There should be on the lowest tier the PMT thead on Muse forum which sadly is inactive for some years now, but back in 2010 was booming with ladies literally posting pictures of our boys and well, they mostly included their crotch regions xD It was interesting part of the forum back in a day, I'm kinda happy I was still be able to be part of it xD. BellDom - ship between MattxDom mostly just describing their bromance. These two are very close friends and often their interactions during interveiws included long stares at each other and weird comments from Matt, so it just happened. But they are totally hilarious and it's just a joke. Also what adds to it "Suspecting Dom to be gay" as Dom was the last one of them to get a girlfriend and his fashion sense is quite original, let's say it, because our guy loves skinny jeans and panter-dot shirts xD.

no way you got too shy to even say “belldom stays for Bellamy and Dominic together” lmfao 😭😭😭 also “the muse” is about that italian tv-show where they swapped their instruments, they got announced this way

btw the place muse started is pronounced ten-muth (teignmouth),. Just thought I would mention it

If you ever do a part 2 then here's some ideas. Maggots in jacuzzi on shrooms (and shrooms generally), lots of stuff from the Showbiz era, not just THE MUSE lip sync moment but all the other ones too, no yew idiot, one of their CDs getting thrown in the bin by the mayor of their home town, Murph/Will/Charles, the glitterati (RIP), the Top Gear videogame influence for Bliss, Takeabow19, I could honestly go on and on.

This was fun! I forgot about some of Muse's albums, thanks for the reminder ;)

When I heard survival I feel like it’s worthy of many MANY awards 😭 it’s the gold medal contender of the music world

as someone who had a similar speech impediment until i was 15, this makes me respect matt more actually

Several things were new to me. Would love to hear more things in a part 2.

should have put Glen Rowe deeper in the iceberg than Tom Kirk lol

i love them so much bro

I love this it was so entertaining! Of course I’m sitting in the Atlanta airport for two hours. 😂 great video

There’s a much larger iceberg that you should cover

Love the list, but do feel like it's missing a proper Level 1. As far as the general audience goes, people might know Starlight, or Uprising, or have heard the Feeling Good cover, but I would've put Showbiz and even Knights as a deeper cut. Origin of Symmetry again is sadly less well known than it ought to be.

I thrive on Nightwalk Muse content 🖤!!

that classic sounding intro is on the album.

My Favorite Album's. The Resistance, Drones, Simulation Theory. Drones has something special to me. Whole the album has a great atmosphere. I am still a big fan of Origin Of Symmetry too. Micro Cuts came in the spot to me these days. This album is very talented. As Absolution is too. Black Holes And Revelation's is very energetic to me. If You think about how great the last Album's where' Simulation Theory and Will Of The People. I am a fan of Matt his Beautiful singed song's. This remind's me to U2. As I find Megalomania is great to listen again too. Thanks for this video. It's amazing

18:00 I don’t have words to describe the version they played during the Black Holes Tour. It starts quiet and more stripped down, and when you think this version will be calmer and simpler for Matt to sing, the chorus comes and he just completely fucks his throat and his voice sounds like he’s bleeding through his mouth and screaming like he’s going to die when the song ends but you still can’t understand a single word while Chris seems to be punching his bass and Dom just goes crazy on the drums.

About the guitar smashing record... That was proven to be false; Matt never smashed 140 guitars during that tour. However, the myth was so widespread even Guinness World Records were fooled for a while.

The speech impediment abusing on Propaganda isn’t alleged, he confirmed it himself on an interview where they went over all the Sun Theory songs Edit: it was the Radio X interview

Not sure if this is iceberg-worthy, but I recently discovered that Citizen Erased and Resistance use an almost identical background melody. Just thought it was cool to share

Ayy I knew them all! 'The Muse' refers to that italian show where they swapped instrumenta

5:22 I once posted on the Radiohead subreddit asking for album recommendations given that I'm a fan of Origin of Symmetry. Almost every comment said that Origin of Symmetry was a straight copy (some even said rip-off) of OKC so I should just start there. I've listened to OKC many times since then and I still don't know where the comparisons come from.

Just saw them for the fifth time in Las Vegas. They're still absolutely awesome.🤘🇺🇲

"The Muse", I suppose, is a name of Muse in an Italian TV-show, where Matt was playing drums, Chris - piano + guitar, Dom - bass + vocal. Organizers told him to play under the phonogram and guys decided to make a prank with instruments and name :) Despite this, the audience did not guess

I remember the fishing trip being an extra on I think if you bought the dvd of one of the live shows 🤔

singing along to micro cuts might as well have been singing along to execution commentary

They didn't write neutron star for twilight. It was just a song that missed their last release.

I have a fun obscure one for the iceberg. Did you know that there exists an extended outro version of Bliss? The version on the album, even the rerelease, fades out at the end. It is extremely obscure, but it was distributed to radiostations waaayyy back in the day.

I love the classic muse videos like the fishing one :)

no love for Morgan?

Nice Video

This guy Muses. Proper video!

Oh my god... the matt speech impediment video intro ahah

First, thanks algorithm

The fishing trip is on the second DVD from Hullabaloo _ - it is the documentary content. Also the Chris / Slipknot /Mask Scene. :)

Tier 8 : floccinaucinihilipilification

No sé inglés pero cuando lo estudie vendré a ver el video y lo voy a disfrutar, le doy like :')

I love that I already knew about like 75% of the bottom tier XD good job

ive had a few older people thinkthat knights of cydonia was an older song, i think they confuse it with telstar by the tornadoes

I love this video so much! 🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️

What about Muse logo from 12 Monkeys , the film?

Not a great iceberg when large parts of it are just standard album releases and tracks from those releases. No mention of World War Z, Matt's solo career overlap, ST video chronology, "Will of the Sheeple", the Exogenesis Pt 4 joke etc. Your analysis missed that the Rocket Baby Dolls battle of the bands (at Teignmouth High) plays out in the video for Pressure and that "sit the f**k down" is referenced in the YMMFLIH video. Most surprisingly, you don't get what "The Muse" is referring to? It's literally what every single song is about - The Anima. You've been missing out on what any of the lyrics really mean without knowing that. Propaganda is on there because it's the entire meaning of the Simulation Theory album - layers of propaganda like being in stacked virtual worlds, hence the can of Propaganda causing the issues in the video for Pressure.

a french TV show introduced Muse as "The Muse" & the band members swapped places as a prank because it wasn't truly live.

10:22 you took that from the muse wiki. the only reason I know this is that I was studying muse for an English assignment lol

if you listen to the song “Inside My Head”by radiohead, it’s sounds a lot like muse

Wow it's been 500 years since the last time I hear "pwoper fish" lol 😂

I’m gonna check this band out!

I feel like this iceberg isn’t rlly accurate

11:32. Когда я читал книгу о Muse Марка Бомона и там писалось, что muse это вроде как сокращение(вроде даже не очень то и приличное), но я не помню на какой это было странице и увы поискав я не смог найти :(

Sit the f down is maybe a reference to the "Jump the f up" in lives version of spit it out

They are fishing at Wimbleball Lake. Recognise it :)

I’ve been a fan of muse for wayyy over 12 years now, I seen them for the first time in 2018 and it was so bloody amazing! I see them again next month and I’m already buzzing for it! This band could do no wrong in my eyes🩶

I knew everything, EVERYTHING. It's a pwoper fish!

Cool, I was at lvl 6

Plug in Baby, get with the pprogram!

What was the pronunciation of teignmouth? Was it meant to be a gag- I’m local, great vid btw! :)

love exogenesis so much! Muse is easily the best band ever. (My opinion is the right one)

I like how he put 2007 Radiohead song in comparison with 1999 Muse song. Seems like Radiohead stole Muse's style and not vice versa 💀
