Uprising by Muse - Song of the Decade

Song Info

Matt Bellamy described this to Mojo magazine, in a pre-release interview, as "like a heavy-rock take on Goldfrapp . It has football-style chanting, with all of us going 'Oi!' in time with the snare drum." He added laughing, "It's meant to be football hooligans chanting in protest at the banking situation."

I love this song, the simplicity of the guitar and the power the bass gives, and the vocals... it was a hard decision cause there are so many to choose from but from the 1st time i heard this song it really did just do it for me.. love it... those boys from devon are the greatest band of the 90's end of... an ABSOLUTE classic
