| YOU SIMPLE MINDED PEOPLE! just because the name sudgests its the end of the world doesnt mean its about the end of the world. Havent any of u noticed that all the songs sound like they are adressed to someone, or giving us instructions?! They are giving the message out that we can "change the course of history" and that our " last chance has arrived" and so on and so on... | |

| i never really thought about muse being sexy, but i think their music is brilliant. i like this song and it fits so well in the second track (absolution is really good listening) i think its about change, the end of the world... or maybe the beggining of something new. i really like: "proclaim eternal victory come on and change the course of history" MMM, Muse. | |

| Also, it's about the fact that religion is an excuse to do things that are in total contradiction with what it teaches. There have been so many wars and arguments over religion while it's meant to be about peace and working together. While I agree that often religion helps bring out some of the best in people, like in all human nature, there is an evil in it that we have created ourselves. Theologists, philosophers would have a field day here... The album can just be studied from so many different aspects. | |

| "Doesn't anyone know what "Apocalypse" means...??" It's funny you say that, Muse Bety. Apocalypse is derived from the Greek word apokalypsis, but the literal meaning of the word is actually an "unveiling", or "revealing" In keeping with the concept of the rest of the album, I think this about what comes after death, after what we see as the "end" - something terrible and fantastic...? "it's time we saw a miracle come on it's time for something biblical" I once read an article describing this song as a "cataclysmic Nazi stampede of piano chords". At first I thought this was distasteful and bad criticing (thats not a word - I know) but maybe the critic is reacting to what he or she feels Muse is trying to create an impression of - the worst, most terrific thing ever, and evil from history is all he can identify Muse's awesome lyrical description with. As for the name - does anyone else feel Matt's wry bit of humour - Apocalypse Now seemed a rather brusque and demanding title, so he thought he'd be a little more polite with his own masterpiece..? Just a thought... | |
