“Uprising” is a song by alternative rock band Muse, featured on their fifth studio album The Resistance. Written by vocalist and guitarist Matthew Bellamy, the song was released as the lead single from the album on 7 September 2009. It is also being used as the opening song on the recent tour supporting The Resistance.

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.” (Source Uprising Songfacts).

LOL at the Illuminati guy bellow. This song is clearly so conservative and anti-Obama.

"Rise up and take the power back." That line just sticks out and makes the song for me.
