It's a song. For those of you who said that you won't buy the song because of the mention of 'God falling asleep', that's your choice. Respect that the rest of us choose to buy it anyway. I am a devoted Catholic Christian, and I take no issue with this song. You know why? Because it is not directly about God. It does not mention any particular god. Most would just to the assumption of the Christian/Jewish/Islamic God, and if you do, let's look at what that implies. The song makes a metaphor out of it. It is merely implying that there are times that were dark enough in the veins of history (or pages if you prefer more classical analogies) that one might be led to believe that God fell asleep or at least wasn't paying much attention. You know what? It's an understandable conclusion. Not everyone is an extremely devoted religious person. Some people (actually, I'd go as far as to say the vast majority) have doubts now and then as far as God goes. This song merely addresses those doubt. And you know what? It even says that it's time to 'make things right'. To restore things as God intended, one might conclude. This song leave it open to interpretation. I myself see it as pressing on despite doubts of God, much like Mother Theresea. If you see it otherwise, then that is merely your interpretation. But arguements about a poetic work like a piece of music are rather... pointless. Every person interprets a work slightly different than another. I'm sure not everyone sees this piece of music as I do. Thusly, we aren't even arguing about the same work, so to speak, because we all have our own versions of it. The lyrics are interpretted differently. Sorry for wall of text, but I felt the need to say it. Also, great song, awesome both muscially and lyrically, and Muse rocks! Wow, just chill | Reviewer: Manuel | 3/17/08 Honestly, and this is just referring to the other comments, why are you guys talking about religion? It is a song, not a psalm. Just enjoy the song and go "Ooh, aah!" like a good commentor. Excuse me, reviewer. I agree with the comment below this. | Reviewer: Maddi..x | 3/17/08 The christian god IS a scary thing!! BUT not god itself....the effect it has on people who choose to believe or not to believe. Religion is the cause of all the terrorism and bulshit in this world....its destroying us! Christians live there lives preparing to die. Where as me, MUSIC is my religion!! I enjoy life as it comes and the only thing i preach to people is about great music. LIVE YOUR LIFE n enjoy a song created by one of the best bands ever, instead of worrying that god will smyte you if u like it. And for that josh bloke....learn to be open to lifes critisisms, you wont get far in life if ur not. MUSE MUSE MUSE...I LOVE MUSE!! Bear | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/13/08 Great song. And personally, I truly hope that God doesn't exist or that he has at least fallen asleep. Because the Christian God is a terrible and vengeful creature who scares the crap out of me. Right.. | Reviewer: Bvz | 3/12/08 Firstly, saying God doesnt necesarily mean its the Christian god. Secondly, if it is, that really doesnt mean you shouldnt like the song because you're an athiest. So it say God one, time, WHO CARES? IF you dont like this song because of that, then you are an ignorant fool who cant see past his/her prejudices to just enjoy this song. btw my religion, or lack thereof, really is not important and has little influence on this comment... Muse rock, get over the so-called religious comments in this song. stupid people who take offense to this song | Reviewer: V | 2/29/08 God falling asleep on the job is a metaphor and a damn good one so all you dumbass Christians that find it offensive even though it is just a metaphor can print these lyrics and shove them where gods sun don't shine. i have Christian friends who seem a lot smarter than you and they love this song. SONG OF THE DECADE | Reviewer: Misael | 2/17/08 I've heard this song for the very first time after i got the cd, when it was realeased. I must said that overall the album is a wonderfull work, the kind of work that only Muse is able to do. A real fan doesn't find comparations between album and album, and this song is the proof. It does´t matter if you´ve listened this song first on GH3, only and only if after doing that you've search on internet or went to a record store and get as much as you can on muse's work. This song is for me... the song of the decade, i waited six years to really connect with the new millenium in the music scene. response to all u dumbasses | Reviewer: Angel | 2/17/08 wats with u ppl hes just stating his fucking opinion how about u guys grow up and fuck off i am christian too it doesnt mean all u fucking atheists or watevr the crap u r gotta start saying shyt just ignore the frikin comment it isnt gonna change ur lives is it?! i dont think so Muse ftw! Dumbasses FTL..! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/12/08 lol? i knew about muse LONG time before GH 3 came out -.- There is a reason the put it into GH 3. Muse had a lots of fands before GH3 came out...Learn to know facts, before commenting dumbasses... 99% of thoose who loved muse , knew of them before Gh3 came out Responding to Josh | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/6/08 I agree with Josh (I happen to be the only one I guess). I also first heard this song on GH3 (like a lot of people) and I was going to buy it (but I like to look up the lyrics first). Now I am not going to buy it for the same reason as Josh. They made this song not appeal to people who believe in God!!! although I do have to say I love the song w/o the lyrics. Oh yes, and why do some people have to swear? There is no reason!!!
