Band Name Origins:
- As teenagers they went through lots of band names that were verging on the ridiculous. After hanging around with a local tramp/'musician' who noted a strange surge in the creativity of their hometown's youth ("like a muse passing through the town"), they decided to settle on Muse. (Sourced from various interviews with the band.) Submitted by: Anamaria
- The real reason: Matt Bellamy said in an interview that when thinking up a new name for Rocket Baby Dolls, he was studying the seven muses at university. Submitted by: Liamy T.

Story about this misheard lyric by: H I was at a Muse show with my niece. And not being familiar with their music, I thought maybe they were gay (this is in no way to be taken as a homophobic remark!!!). When my niece set me straight, we laughed like crazy. She reminds me of this song every time I see her; and it still can make me laugh until I cry. |

The Funny Lyrics: Link it to the world Link it to yourself Stretch it like a birth squeeze
Why They're Funny: Well after not really having a clue what he's talking about in the first place you then come to the funny bit. If Matt Bellamy is a man why does he sound like hes singing from experience of having stretched it like a birth squeeze. Does he have a secret he's hiding?
