Have you ever done something just because someone told you that you couldn’t?
I bet you have; we all have at one point or another!
But if you are a new Muser and have no idea what the hell I am talking about, then the next video is for you. Muse’s live performance at Radio 3 in Madrid Spain in the spring of 2001 is a classic example of a much-needed young rebelliousness. Known as the “Radio 3 Incident”, this short gig is my favourite Muse from ’01.
What happened was that the band were asked not to swear during the live recording. Obviously, the manager/producer on the scene was unfamiliar with the band and not aware that Muse never normally swore in their music. The request angered Bellamy, who in retaliation proceeded to swear profusely during the second half of ‘Feeling Good’.
This is the only version of ‘Feeling Good’ in existence known to contain the words: “Fucking, fucking, fucking, fucking hell! Fucking, fucking little, fucking, fucking fuckers, yeah!” I must admit though, that the swearing is perfectly timed to the music for two whole lines, — you wouldn’t expect anything less from Bellamy, would you?
