Not sure what you mean by out, it was only the first verified title of a song on the album after the little guessing game the had. Was never said to be the first single. It was released as a digital single today. Yeah sorry , I meant radio single.

I'm not disappointed in United States Of Eurasia in the least, after just listening to it for the first time. It absolutely has the Queen homage, which I have no problem with because it still keeps a Muse feel. I love that it also feels a little like Murray Head's "One Night In Bangkok" in places which is AWESOME!! It's obviously a digital single for a reason, I believe it's one of those songs that they are having fun with.

I actually like whatever that is BUT something is telling me that its not the song and they may have been joking around just because of what they say at the end "he comes in with a Vanilla Ice/Snow style rap". Seriously.

Sounds good. I think that last bit was a joke.

Seriously. Oh I'd say its definitely the song. I'm not entirely convinced the last bit was entirely a joke either... who knows?

I like United States Of Eurasia a lot better than Uprising.

I get Goldfrapp and Marilyn Manson from that... Loving it. Not sure how I feel about it in comparison to their other material, but I think this album will certainly work better as a whole considering how different it is to USOE. The only thing that grabbed me as a negative are the lyrics of the chorus... same old same old.

It's ok, but I'm a bit disappointed. I like "United States Of Eurasia" better. It may be a Queen rip-off, yet it's a great song. Hope there are more good rip-offs like that in the album.

Heard "Uprising" yesterday on the radio and actually quite liked it. Also like USOE. Definitely different but it definitely is Muse. Can't wait to hear the rest.

I really like both songs. Can't really pick between the two. Not exactly sure what people find disappointing about this song. To me , it's Muse just doing what they do. Their progressive sound has always been all over the map on influences and I love that they can do it with their own flair.

Had to go find another copy because WMG has already gotten the above video removed. Anyway I don't see what's wrong with the song. It may sound a little poppy by their standards, but really it is only the drumbeat that is contributing to that. Other than that it sounds just like the Muse I love.

A listen or two reminded me of a cross between "Knights of Cydonia" and "Supermassive Black Hole." Definitely reassuring after hearing "United States of Eurasia."

It's been put straight to the Radio 1 B-list in the UK.
Certain to be A listed in shot order.

Top 20 debut is far more than I'd been anticipating. Is anyone else thinkin' #1?

Am I the only one who thinks this sounds like Personal Jesus/Keeps Gettin' Better/I Don't Care?

Id have to think Breaking Benjamin will also debut in the top 20 and screw around with them. But yeah Im expecting a top 15 debut for TDG (and top 5 on Active lol) so Muse could get blocked
