About This Track

The vocal solo at the end of Showbiz contains the highest recorded note that Matt has ever sung, extending to an G#5 (tied with Micro Cuts Ab5, the same note). Occasionally he has hit A5 during live performances, an example being at the Two Days a Week Festival in Wiesen, Austria. The later live versions had extra guitar work before the solo, as on Hullabaloo and Hullabaloo DVD.

Matthew Bellamy: “The song “Showbiz” is about how we all have an inside personality that we sort of hide from the outside.”

    I had a broken version of this, it was just like some old dial-up internet sound, only more fucked up. Then I read all the comments with a sarcastic tone. Hilarious.

    So emotional. Music can express feelings much better than something else.

    Does anyone else this song sounds a bit like what going mad might sound like? In the best way possible?

    The guitar solo to me is the best guitar solo I have ever heard (Bar maybe Exogenesis: Overture). It's the first time I've experienced a guitar being able to express emotions that a vocalist's voice can't, even with Matt's incredibly emotional vocals. It's just sheer pain and frustration.

    So epic. The guitar work is out of this world.

    This song is quite possibly the best song they've ever done. I don't see them ever being able to capture the same atmosphere as they captured during this song again.

    This and Micro Cuts are so under-listened and underrated.
