Description

A song featuring stringed instrumentation.

Additional information

The song title was found by Muse fans from a picture on Twitter of Matt holding a score.[1] The name comes from the book The Grand Chessboard by Zbigniew Brzeziński, who puts forward the view that Eurasia must be control by the USA to secure oil supplies. In addition, it draws influence from Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell, in which Eurasia is an enemy, then ally, of the country of Oceania, commanded by Big Brother.
