The intro of the song is used in the trailer of the last episode of BBC show Silent Witness, and on the BBC show waterloo road. In February 2010, Muse had uploaded a picture puzzle of “Resistance” artwork on their official Facebook page. The puzzle itself has a making of the “Resistance” track (which will be able to see it after solving the puzzle). This song was featured in a promo for an episode of Human Target.

    Bitches please, the "it could be wrong" parts are really what's best about this song. Gives it a kind of 80s feel. (First I heard it in those VH1 commercials and I thought it was some 80s band before I heard Bellamy :P)

    I still can't believe the turn this song takes from really cool to irritating. What could have been one of the best songs on the album just gets completely ruined. :\

    I'm another one who thinks the "could be wrong" part is irritating! But after awhile I kind of accepted it and appreciated how it sounds a bit offbeat and yet syncopated in a good way.

    I think the 'it could be wrong part' makes this song even better 'cause it really emphasizes what the song is about, and I think it sounds pretty awesome. But well, that's my opinion.

    The ""it could be wrong" part keeps the song from being brilliant.
