“The Muses are the inspirational goddesses of literature, science, and the arts in Greek mythology. They were considered the source of the knowledge embodied in the poetry, lyric songs, and myths “
-released their debut album, Showbiz, in 1999
– They were formed in 2000
– Matt Bellamy is wel known for being inspired by books like:
Rule by Secrecy by Jim Marrs
The Grand Chessboard: American Primacy and Its Geostrategic Imperatives by Zbigniew Brzezinski
Hyperspace by Michio Kaku
“Queen must be the best band in the word”
-Members are: Matt Bellamy – lead vocals, guitars, keyboards

” … There seems to be this paradigm which is: There has to be growth. I’m watching it and thinking, am I the only one who recognises this is a small planet isolated in a gigantic universe? Where are we growing to?
This song is from the praised concept album “Drones” which is about an indoctrinated human being turning into a robo drone.
Matt sais the album is a modern metaphor for what it is like to lose empathy.
I’m hurting you again
Too lonely to pretend
Like everything is new
I promise you to
Blow it all away
In your world
No one is crying alone
In your world
No one is dying alone
Too broken to belong
too weak to sing along
I’ll comfort you my friend
Helping you to
Blow it all away
In your world
No one is crying alone
In your world
No one is dying alone

Some space left for another song of MUSE
The handler
You (you, you) Were my oppressor
And I (I, I) I have been programmed to obey
And now (now, now) You are my handler
And I (I, I) I will execute your demands
Leave me alone I must disassociate from you
Behold (hold, hold) My trance formation And you (you, you)
Are empowered to do as you please
My mind (mind, mind) Was lost in translation
And my heart (heart, heart)
Has become a cold and impassive machine
Leave me alone I must disassociate from you
I won’t let you control my feelings anymore
And I will no longer do as I am told
And I am no longer afraid to walk alone Let me go
Let me be I’m escaping from your grip
You will never own me again
By MUSE: here’s the song
music in poetry – poetry in music
