Stockholm syndrome is a real, psychological effect sometimes seen in an abducted hostage, in which the hostage shows signs of loyalty to the hostage-taker, regardless of the danger or in which they have been placed.

This song was made available as downloadable content for Guitar Hero 3.

Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater covered the intro on his drumming focused ‘‘In Constant Motion‘‘ DVD

When the chorus is played backwards, the message ” You can’t see me, you sneak off. I lost your love. Please … save me” can be heard.

According to Matthew Bellamy, the riff in the song is inspired by System of a Down.

the only thing that makes it even remotely close to radiohead would be the kinda of falsetto vibrato singing style that they both use . but their music is so different

How can someone even think of mentioning Radiohead in the context of this song? It's like mixing fire and water. Muse is fire. Radiohead is water. Both great bands, but seriously.

extremely fucking amazing, especially when you've got a great sound system like I do now, so you can celebrate and REALLY enjoy the bass and riff of this song
