It’s Saturday, so it’s time to party. Let’s do that! Here’s Muse’s semi-serious “Undisclosed Desires”, off The Resistance (about which I wrote earlier). The clip has been out for a couple of days now, and it’s a sweet affair of musicianship, dancing, and way too many cables.
I want to reconcile the violence in your heart
I want to recognise your beauty’s not just a mask
I want to exorcise the demons from your past
I want to satisfy the undisclosed desires in your heart
I especially enjoyed Matthew Bellamy’s guitar-synth-hybrid, and the huge number of microphones he seems to require for this simple piece. But then, this is a song about a love going strong, a heart beating and bleeding with power: these things are so rare, they have to be proclaimed, communicated in as many channels as possible. Some cable salad and a little dance can do no harm – only amplify the glory of the feeling. Q. W3ary over & out.
