'If you're in the office with music on in the background & we come on, we probably sound pretty silly, But, if you're listening on a plane going through turbulence, it would sound completely different' Matthew Bellamy on 'Black Holes & Revelations' (Irish Independent, June '06)

"I'd be the first to admit that we do have a ridiculous side. Sometimes we push the fantastical elements of our songs to the point where they're like sci-fi films. Our songs can be very serious, but if we pushed them any further they'd end up being completely comical!"

ZANE: You played, 'Live & Kicking?' MATTHEW: Yeah. It was a mime. New Born. Miming. ZANE: Wow DOMINIC: I was on the bass, Chris on the drums. And then at the end of it all, Glenn, our old Tour Manager came on, and did a windmill, and we all had a big bundle on the floor.

Q: 'I'd like to ask Matt from Muse, if he ever watches old stuff from Muse on YouTube?' MATTHEW: I saw some terrible performance of 'Feeling Good' in Spain, where I just forgot the lyrics and started swearing on television. DOMINIC: That's classic, that performance....

ZANE: What would you save of Matt's? DOM: Umm...his wine collection MATT: You make me sound a right twat or snob, now. I don't have a wine collection! What's he talking about? DOM: Okay, uh... MATT: I've got about four bottles... DOMINIC: I'll wheel your piano out of the door

ZANE: But you've obviously seen your likeness? MATTHEW: They sent me like screenshots when they were making the game. Which showed me looking pretty buff. ZANE: You look healthy! MATTHEW (giggling): Looking very LA, and I'm not sure why that is, but yeah, that was funny...

DOMINIC: We didn't have the new one. You're on the new one, aren't you? MATTHEW: Apparently, 'Assassin' was on the 'World Tour' game, but we couldn't find it. DOMINIC: Yeah, me and Chris couldn't unlock it... (On playing 'Guitar Hero' - Zane Lowe Meets Muse, 2009) #Museband

MATTHEW: It seemed like me and Dom always disagreed on things, but that's where Chris stepped in. And Chris is uh... ZANE: Bigger than you? MATTHEW: He's bigger. He's a lot bigger than us. He's probably, you know, twice the size of us, so when he steps in and says something....

"I only got in a mood like once, in the whole like making of the album...but, because of you." (Zane Lowe Meets Muse - MTV2, 2009) #museband

MATTHEW: Me and Dom had some relatively...relatively serious arguments I'd say, when we were making the album. I really wind him up when... DOMINIC: 'Creative conflicts' (Zane Lowe Meets Muse - MTV2, 2009) #museband

"I suppose because we were producing ourselves, we were much more free to explore the fringes of some ideas that otherwise would probably be frowned upon by producers, or those kind of people...." Matthew Bellamy ('Zane Lowe Meets Muse' - MTV2, 2009) #museband
