== Childhood ==<br />
Matthew Bellamy was born in Cambridge on the 9th June 1978 and moved to [[Devon]] with his family at aged 10. Matthew’s dad, [[George Bellamy]] was in a band called [[The Tornadoes]], who were the first band from the UK to get a US number 1 record.{{cite/none}} At the age of 13 Matthew’s parents got divorced.{{cite/none}} "It was ok at home, middle class, we had money.” Matthew says. “Well until the age of 13. I think I almost got everything I wanted until the age of 13, yes. Then, everything changed, parents got divorced, and I went to live with my grand mother, and there wasn't that much money. I have a sister who's younger than me, she's actually my stepsister: my dad had her from another marriage, and also an older brother. Until the age of 14 music was part of my life since it was part of the family circle: my dad was a musician, he had a band, etc. But it's only when I moved in with my grandparents that I started playing music myself. It was like a need to me."{{cite/none}}<br />
<br />
Matthew started playing piano at 6 when his brother influenced him to play a soundtrack from a TV series by holding him in front of the TV and then putting him in front of the piano.Matthew managed to play the song and his brother used to make him play it in front of his friends for show off.At the age of 11, after seeing Jimmy Hendrix putting his guitar on fire, he decided he wanted to buy a guitar, which he asked from his grandmother.{{cite/none}} His parents and older brother also used an Ouija Board to contact the dead, which Matt discovered when he was wandering downstairs late at night. He then became interested in it after the divorce of his parents. “It was exciting to go to school and to tell 10-year-old kids all about it, as they found it all quite scary and I was quite impressed that I was doing something that was scary to other people but that wasn’t to me. I did get quite into that.” His beliefs changed after one correspondence predicted the first Gulf War a year before it started. “My beliefs in the whole thing changed. I now believe that you’re contacting something in your subconscious, which is quite different. Something that you might not have known was already there. That’s probably more realistic than thinking you’re contacting somebody who’s already dead. And I do practice that".{{cite/none}}<br />
<br />
Bellamy's first<ref name="nme20000202">{{cite/NME 2000-02-02}}</ref> memory is of breaking an expensive family heirloom<ref name="mm199912">{{cite/Melody Maker 1999-12}}</ref> - a large mirror<ref name="mm199912"/> - after letting go of a bucket whilst spinning around with it, as a result of which his mother proclaimed that he'd cursed the family for seven years.<ref name="nme20000202"/> This occurred in the year previous to the one during which his parents split up.<ref name="mm199912"/> In December 1999, he claimed this was his most guilt-ridden memory.<ref name="mm199912"/><br />
<br />
== Music ==<br />
=== Style ===<br />
Matthew Bellamy is the driving force behind Muse’s lyrical and musical composition. Popular devices he uses are singing with vibrato and in falsetto ("[[Supermassive Black Hole (song)|Supermassive Black Hole]]," "[[Knights of Cydonia (song)|Knights of Cydonia]]," "[[Ruled by Secrecy (song)|Ruled by Secrecy]]," "[[Micro Cuts (song)|Micro Cuts]]," and "[[Showbiz (song)|Showbiz]]," among others), arpeggiations ("[[Take a Bow (song)|Take a Bow]]," "[[Starlight (song)|Starlight]]," "[[Butterflies & Hurricanes (song)|Butterflies & Hurricanes]]," "[[Ruled by Secrecy (song)|Ruled by Secrecy]]," "[[New Born (song)|New Born]]," and "[[Bliss (song)|Bliss]]," among others), and large or octave jumps in melody lines ("[[Map of the Problematique (song)|Map of the Problematique]]," "[[Stockholm Syndrome (song)|Stockholm Syndrome]]," "[[Butterflies & Hurricanes (song)|Butterflies & Hurricanes]]," and "[[Citizen Erased (song)|Citizen Erased]]," among others). Some songs (most notably older ones) express a more esoteric side in terms of guitar riffs and vocals ("[[Execution Commentary (song)|Execution Commentary]]," "[[Agitated (song)|Agitated]]," "[[Ashamed (song)|Ashamed]]," and "[[Yes Please (song)|Yes Please]]," among others). He also seems to pronounce clearly the hard consonant sound "n" at the beginnings of some phrases when he sings. This has commonly been interpreted as the word "and".<br />
<br />
=== Lyrics ===<br />
Bellamy's lyrical writing is relatively simple but his subject matters are usually not - world events, the end of the world, hyperspace, technology, religion, George Orwells '1984' (for 'Resistance'), among other subjects.<br />
Many of his main ideas are set in a dystopian future, in which totalitarian governments control every aspect of private and public behaviour, maintaining their power with political and forceful tactics such as widespread surveillance, state controlled media etc. Freedom is out of the question, and the idea of terrorism can be placed onto any individual regardless of age, etc.<br />
<br />
=== Vocal range ===<br />
Bellamy's displayed vocal range spans from F♯2 to C6, a total of 3.5 octaves.<br />
<br />
The lowest full note he has reached is A2 in [[Spiral Static (song)|Spiral Static]] at 2:24. In an interview with KROQ, August 2010, he displays an F♯2 while impersonating growling vocals.<br />
<br />
The highest note he has belted is B♭4. He hits this note at 2:08 in [[Feeling Good (song)|Feeling Good]], at 5:52 in [[Unnatural Selection (song)|Unnatural Selection]], and several times throughout [[Futurism (song)|Futurism]]. He more commonly hits A4 in songs like [[City of Delusion (song)|City of Delusion]], [[Cave (song)|Cave]], [[House of the Rising Sun (song)|House of the Rising Sun]], [[Sing for Absolution (song)|Sing for Absolution]], [[Exo-Politics (song)|Exo-Politics]], and [[Hyper Music (song)|Hyper Music]].<br />
<br />
The highest studio note Bellamy has hit is A5 at the start of [[Dead Star (song)|Dead Star]], and in [[Hyper Music (song)|Hyper Music]] at 2:53, both of which are backing vocals. His highest note in a lead vocal is the final scream in [[Showbiz (song)|Showbiz]], and in [[Micro Cuts (song)|Micro Cuts]], both reaching G♯5. Live, Bellamy occasionally hits B5 during [[Time Is Running Out|Time Is Running Out]]. During [[Agitated (song)|Agitated]] at the [[Paris MCM Café 1999 (gig)|MCM Café in 1999]], about 10 seconds after the first chorus, he approaches C♯6.<br />
<br />
Whilst this is not out of the range of a male singer with due practice, Bellamy managed to reach these highs without the amount practice usually required, and before he developed his breathing technique. According to [[Dominic Howard|Howard]] speaking for an interview around [[Saint-Malo Fort de Saint-Père 2001 (gig)|Route du Rock 2001]], a doctor once examined Bellamy's vocal cords and commented that they are unusually small, explaining how he managed to reach the high ranges that he does with relatively little practice or training. Bellamy also stated in said interview that he used to, sometime prior to that interview, attempt to sing lower due to being embarrassed about singing using high ranges. He doesn't anymore, however, as he has lost that inhibition.<ref>[http://youtube.com/watch?v=-5sbGANaROA Route du Rock interview 2001]</ref><br />
<br />
=== Pre-performance preparation ===<br />
Bellamy uses an electric foot massager to prepare before shows. As well as treating nervousness, this helps him in regards to jet lag.<ref>{{cite/ninemsn 2007-02}}</ref><br />
<br />
He has also said that bubble baths are his favourite way to "warm up" prior to shows. <ref>BBC Radio 1 Podcast, December 2006</ref><br />
<br />
It has also been said that Matt "can't play a gig" without eating a banana.<br />
<br />
In an interview with NME, he has said that once he gets offstage the first thing he drinks is red wine. According to Bellamy, it's the only alcohol that doesn't make his throat dry and helps with his voice. <ref>[Interview (NME Feature, 08/13/2008)]</ref><br />
<br />
=== Live action<!--better title needed :P--> ===<br />
Bellamy has several live regularities. One of the most prominent is repetitively walking back and forth, though pro-shot videos manage to mask this by changing angle often. Other regularities are song specific, for example in Plug In Baby he spins a few times during the final instrumental section. He has the world record at breaking guitars,{{cite/none}} he smashed 140 guitars at the Absolution tour 2004.<br />
<br />
=== Miscellany ===<br />
Bellamy would rather artists not need the media to reach their audience.<ref name="nme20000202"/><br />
<br />
Bellamy can "vaguely" read musical scores.<ref name="nme20000202"/><br />
<br />
The first song that Bellamy learned to play was the theme tune to Dallas. His brother held him in front of their television, then held him in front of their piano and made Matthew work it out with one finger. His brother showed this off to his friends.<ref name="nme20010616">[[The fan-ish inquisition:Muse (20010616 NME feature)|NME 20010616]]</ref><br />
<br />
== Additional information ==<br />
=== Family ===<br />
Bellamy's father is [[George Bellamy]], former rhythm guitarist of [[The Tornadoes]]. Bellamy's mother is Marylin Bellamy, who left Ireland for England during the 1970s.<br />
<br />
George Bellamy's brother was shot and killed in Northern Ireland some time during the 1960s or 1970s under suspicious circumstances. He was a soldier of the British Army, but the IRA never owned up to his death (as they usually did) and no conclusion was ever came to. Rumours were abound that he was a member of the SAS, and the suspicion surrounding his death was one of the factors leading to Matt's 'obsession' with conspiracy theories.<br />
<br />
He has an older brother called Paul, who bought Hulk comics during their childhood. Matthew came to like The Incredible Hulk as a result, but he never bought any of the comics - he took them from Paul.<ref name="nme20000729"/> <br />
<br />
Bellamy's fiancée [[Kate Hudson]], an American actress, gave birth to his first child, a boy named Bingham "Bing" Hawn Bellamy on 9{{supo|th}} July 2011.<br />
<br />
=== Religion ===<br />
Bellamy has shown signs of atheism: "Being an atheist means you have to realise that when you die, that really is it. You've got to make the most of what you've got here and spread as much influence as you can. I believe that you only live through the influence that you spread, whether that means having a kid or making music".{{cite/none}}<br />
<br />
In 2000 Bellamy stated that Mary, the mother of Jesus, was "extremely cool" to have been able to deceive people into believing she remained a virgin after conceiving.<ref name="mm20000615">{{cite/Melody Maker 2000-06-15}}</ref><br />
<br />
Bellamy has also stated that God will never be cool due to Satan introducing rock 'n' roll first. He said that "all those cloaks and everything" is "not a good look".<ref name="mm20000615"/><br />
<br />
In a session where Matt and Dom answered questions from fans, Bellamy stated that the celebrity alive or dead he'd most like to meet is Jesus Christ (Dom answered Jimi Hendrix for this question). Matt: I'd like to meet Jesus Christ. Eh just because I'd be interested to know how he did it all. You know what I mean? You know...making fish out of bushes and stuff. Walking on water. I'd like to meet someone who can do that. I think that'd be uh, certainly one of the most interesting people to meet I'd say.{{cite/none}}<br />
<br />
However, more recently Bellamy has shown signs of being an Agnostic or a Deist. In an interview with a Rock Music channel in France (2006), Bellamy states, "I believe in the God of the universe, definitely." In addition, he revealed in a 2007 video inverview that, "I don't believe in heaven or hell, I don't really believe in that version" {{YTw |Nje70tnlq10}}. Bellamy's beliefs are therefore probably closer to the philosophical concept of "The Absolute" as opposed to the structures of organized religions.<br />
<br />
=== Miscellany ===<br />
Bellamy watched Road Runner when he was around 4 years of age. He claims that the way the road runner tortured the coyote constantly without self consequence "got" to him.<ref name="nme20000729"><br />

}}</ref><br />
<br />
Bellamy avoids 'hard' drugs, due to his experience of their effects on those around him. Bellamy moved into a flat with a drug dealer at the age of 18. He described the flat as looking like "a scene from Trainspotting, white powders and mirrors and tin foil everywhere."<ref name="k20020622">{{cite/Kerrang 2002-06-22}}</ref> He did however use [[Magic Mushrooms|mushrooms]] containing psilocybin "to experience something thats not always on offer. I'm not afraid of seeing something horrible. It's a way of connecting with yourself in a way that you can't normally do."{{cite/none}}<br />
<br />
During the early years of Muse, Bellamy became involved with some "dodgy" people, with which he stole and sold a Ford Escort for £500. After the owner of the scrap yard from where they stole said Escort threatened to burn Bellamy's house with his family inside it, Bellamy gave the man Muse's tour bus. Bellamy has stated that he'd like to exact revenge on this man by putting him into a car crusher.{{cite/none}}<br />

==Information==<br />
This video features the band performing at home and was made "very cheaply". They rented a thermal vision camera and just messed around.<br />
<br />
[[Thomas Kirk]] shot/directed it. The entire video uses a thermal vision camera, and as the band were playing around with ice and stuff. There's one shot at the end where they aren't under any of the effects.<br />
[[image:StockholmSyndromeHiddenFrame.png|right|thumb|The hidden frame in Stockholm Syndrome]]<br />
[[Matt]]: "We made this video ourselves. We did it in the place where we'd pretty much written the whole album ('Absolution'), a warehouse in Hackney. We went down there with a few thermal cameras - influenced by the film 'Predator', with the thermal shots where you can just see the heat. It was more of an excuse just to get the cameras out and have a little laugh with them, really!<br />
It shortly just developed into Dom bending over a pool table, lighting a fart and filming it with a thermal camera. You'd be impressed if you were to see that footage. I really argued that we should put the shot in because people would never see what it was, they'd just think it was a dragon or something.<br />
It was good fun mucking around with thermal cameras and throwing ice and water over yourself, 'cause obviously, if you do, that makes it look like you're dissolving your body".<br />
<br />
*At ~0:02 the word CAPTOR is written on a wall.<br />
*At ~2:44, a frame contains "FUCK". This frame was never removed from the TV version of the video.<br />
*From ~3:39 till 3:43 the letters PRISONER can be seen.<br />
*At 3:14, A flame can be seen shooting from a persons rear. (Possibly the fire fart footage Matt was talking about)<br />
<br />
==Alternative video==<br />
[[Image:StockholmSyndromeVideo.jpg|thumb]] <br />
An alternate video was shot for the US, using the US radio edit of the song. The video features what appears to be a typical American talk show named "Oracle TV" with Muse as the guest performers. As Muse plays Stockholm Syndrome, the sky turns red and a gale coming from the band literally blows away the host and a guest sitting next to him through the set. The guest's hawk begins pecking at audience members, who begin to flee out of the studio. Next to go are the show's band, one of which flies through a wall.<br />
<br />
During the main riff, audience members, the host, and the crew return to the set through the holes in the walls, and together sing the final chorus, but flee once again near the end of the song.<br />
<br />
*The scenery behind the set seems to be Ayers Rock in Australia.<br />
*This version was directed by Patrick Daughters.<br />

'''David Slade (director):''' "This was a double A side single, I wrote about seven treatments for [[Feeling Good (song)|Feeling Good]] to find that they actually needed two videos for both sides of the single."<br />
<br />
"It seemed that performance was what was needed. We had to split one budget into two videos and so this became an exercise in invention and improvisation."<br />
<br />
"Feeling Good was meant to be a pop performance piece, the mainstream flip side to the nasty [[Hyper Music (song)|Hyper Music]]. In the end it became the absolute antithesis after we cast a bunch of monsters to be in the crowd."<br />
<br />
The video features Muse fans with distored faces and loads of cherry blossom petals. There was also a bit of the scene that was cut off which involved [[Matthew Bellamy|Matt]] falling down the room with a pyramid of Muse fan heads. It was cut off due to time constraints when renting the studio.<br />
<br />
It was filmed in front of a blue screen.<br />

==[[David Slade]] (director)==<br />
"The budget was as tight as a nun’s chuff and we ended up going to Prague to shoot most of the video.<br />
<br />
Prague is like Canada in that budget’s go a lot further. We built a set and shot with extras and a single strange warehouse location. It was a really well organised shoot, but it was one of those scenarios when everything that could go wrong did. All beyond our control.<br />
<br />
We ended up doing a tiny blue screen pick-up shoot of extras back in London a week later. The deadline was cast iron and we ended up having to rush the post through three different houses. It was one of the toughest jobs of my career.<br />
<br />
To this day the mere sound of this track sends poor producer Russell Maclean into tortured fits of anguish."<br />
<br />
There were two versions of this video, one being the full edit of the song as found on the album and one made with the radio edit of the song, a minute and a half shorter.<br />
<br />
==Muse on the video==<br />
[[Christopher Wolstenholme|Wolstenholme]]: "I think it was the first decent video that we did. We went to Prague. They kind of built this big set but the set was turned on its side, so the wall was on the floor".<br />
<br />
Bellamy: "The idea was supposed to be that we were playing on the side of a wall. No-one got that bit - everyone always thinks that the camera was at 90 degrees. I think it's because we didn't have the crowd there, we had to do the crowd separately on bluescreen and morph them together. Compromises were made. But we ended up with something reasonably good, I think.<br /><br />
It was directed by David Slade. He always used to make us wear a lot of yellow make up. He'd plant us all yellow and say, 'Trust me' - then we'd look in the mirror and look ridiculous. When you filmed it, it made us look golden. Our skin doesn't look all that unusual on screen, but we were completely fluorescent yellow for all the videos we've ever made with David Slade".<br />

This video was directed by Howard Greenhalgh and features the band sitting a surreal enviroment. [[Matthew Bellamy|Bellamy]] is sitting on a bed, and a chair, singing, [[Dominic Howard|Dominic Howard]] enters the room and sits on a chair with two drumsticks in his hands, eyes scanning the room. [[Christopher Wolstenholme|Wolstenholme]] is playing an electric [[Double bass|double bass]], with two female 'mirages' twisting about him.<br />
<br />
The band didn't have any instruments aside from the electric bass at the time of filming, so Greenhalgh told them to sit in their respective positions.<ref name="k2005"/><br />

==Information==<br />
This video is of a babysitter who sneaks into the bedroom of the parents of a boy she is supposed to be taking care of and begins to try on and steal their belongings. As stated in a 2004 interview(<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gU7fRTdSww&feature=related</ref>), the band appears to her in a mirror as a manifestation of her guilt. As well as the band appearing in the mirror, the babysitter's hair arbitrarily changes from untidy to tidy, thus the distinction between what happens in reality and what's symbolic within the video is unclear.<br />
<br />
The band didn't record their part at the same time as the girl did.<ref name="k2005">{{cite/Kerrang 2005}}</ref> Matthew Bellamy recalled that he was very nervous when recording the band's part, as he sang into a camera.<ref name="k2005"/><br />
<br />
The girl in the video is played by Brooke Kinsella, an actress who then went on to star in the British soap 'Eastenders'<ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brooke_Kinsella</ref><br />

<br />
The initial idea of the video had people carrying out their daily tasks, then breaking down. The video didn't turn out as expected, the environment was not intended to be as "pristine" as the recording location - Los Angeles - was. In the initial ideas, the people within the video were not meant to cry all the way through as they do in the final version.<ref name="k2005">{{cite/Kerrang 2005}}</ref><br />
<br />
The video was recorded while Muse were signed to Maverick records in the USA. At the time, they were supporting Red Hot Chili Peppers in Los Angeles. The video was apparently "extremely" expensive to make, which Matthew Bellamy attributed to Maverick overhyping Muse. He also attributed their later falling out with Maverick to this overhyping.<ref name="k2005"/><br />
<br />
During the recording of the video, director Joseph Kahn was almost run over by a truck by the camera van, whilst watching already recorded sections of the video. The actor who portrayed the crying fireman, Daniel Bilodeux, pulled Kahn out of the way just in time. Kahn's back was grazed in the process.<ref><br />

<br />
==The Original Idea==<br />
<br />
According to Matt and Chris, the original idea was too dark, "There were some really perverted ones that were quite dark," explained Muse frontman Matthew Bellamy, "[one] involving an eight-year-old boy walking around with a syringe with milk [in it], squirting it in people's faces. I thought that was pretty dark, so that got a big no. Yeah, there were some weird, strange ones involving hospitals as well," Bellamy continued. "I think [directors] just read the title 'Muscle Museum' and think it's supposed to be a twisted, dark Marilyn Manson thing. But some of the ones I like have been quite weird. The one I wanted to do starts with us drinking out of petrol pumps. It was a really strange video." <ref>Muse Gets Macabre For "Muscle Museum" David Basham, MTV Article - 18th October 1999</ref><br />
<br />
"And there was a couple of dodgy torture ones," added bassist Chris Wolstenholme.<ref>Muse Gets Macabre For "Muscle Museum" David Basham, MTV Article - 18th October 1999</ref><br />
<br />
==Alternate videos==<br />
[[File:mm dc.JPG|thumb|right|Director's Cut video]]<br />
A Director's Cut of the video was also released, which consists of additional shots. These shots are mostly alternative shots or other people, such as a naked girl on the bed and a girl sitting on a toilet.<br />
<br />
[[File:mm8.JPG|thumb|right|US Mix video]]<br />
There is another video released in the USA, featuring live moments of the band, to go with the release of the Muscle Museum US-Mix single.<br />
<br />
==Other notes==<br />
On the [[Official Muse site|official Muse website]], the band does not have the original video in their "media" section. Instead, there is a video of them playing the song [[Pilton Worthy Farm 2004 (gig)|live at Glastonbury]].<br />

[[Matthew Bellamy|Bellamy]]: "The reason I like David Slade is his ideas are way above and beyond what is even achievable within the realms of the film industry. His idea originally for that video was a person falling through space towards earth. You think the person's gonna hit the ground and die but they just go through the centre of the earth and come out the other side.<br /><br />
It just sounded like a weird idea, so we ended up talking about trying to make a video that did that. But obviously, planet earth was a bit difficult to conjure up, so we ended up settling for a kind of 'Star Wars' Death Star thing. I spent the whole day strapped in a harness hanging from the ceiling. That was pretty knackering. It was just a mad idea, but we went with it".<br />
<br />
[[Dominic Howard|Howard]]: "For the majority of the day, me and Chris just sat around doing nothing, watching Matt swing around on his harness. We were both in these weird little pods, trapped outside of the tube that Matt was falling through, going, 'No! What're you doing?'. We kinda spun around for a bit, watched him falling and that was our only appearance in that video!"<br />
<br />
'''[[David Slade]] (director):''' Matt falls into a giant hole in a machine at the core of a futuristic city, then spends the entire video falling, watched by the other members of the band. He falls until he drifts out into space, continuing to accelerate until he reaches the edge of the universe where he comes apart as gas. We shot for two days with Matt Bellamy spinning on wires for the whole time. I believe Matt is a sadomasochist. He had bruises that took three weeks to heal and he puked three times. But still somehow came up smiling. Everyone thinks that this video was done with CGI, not so. We didn’t have the schedule or budget and so had to do it the old fashioned way - entirely with miniatures. There was a lot of 2D compositing though and Smoke & Mirrors artist Rob Maggoch created all the starscape backgrounds entirely in inferno.<br />

<br />
The video starts by showing the band in a boat, going through a "It's a Small World" or "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory"-like ride that appears to go through the history of the world; starting the stone-age, the band moves on through various wars and notable events in history. The animation style is said to resemble Lego-block people and flat, cardboard or wooden creatures. Near the end, all of the events run together, and an apparent end of the word scenario begins around them including numerous yellow twisters, giant robotic teddy bears with multiple rows of teeth destroying buildings and UFO's swarming the city, with the humans fighting back. The video ends with a shot of a caveman and woman looking to themselves and the band on their boat riding out of the other end of the tunnel and the massive brightly-colored door closing behind them.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
*The parts of the ride the band went through are: Stone age - Ancient Egypt - Ancient Rome - Viking age - Industrial age - World War II - Present time - Present time in chaos - aftermath<br />
