Second Paragraph

Mere speculation, if anyone can find some references for the claims that's fine, otherwise the paragraph should be deleted. mode_seven 17:27, 16 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is Matt Bellamy really addicted to porn?

I don't think so. It's just speculation, maybe one should delete it. --Nr. 213-140-22-64 17:51, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Seeing as nothing's happened over the last five months, I'm going to remove it. Mark ^(Talk) 16:40, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Genre

Due to the ongoing disputes about which genre Muse's music falls into I think it'd be safest just to describe them as a "rock band", as that can hardly be challenged. 81.23.56.53 (talk) 20:23, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've made the alteration. Pretty sure it should be okay. Can always be reverted if not. I just struggle to think of PiB as a "prog" song. 81.23.56.53 (talk) 20:25, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Move?

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was no consensus. Meanwhile, try to figure out what the grammatical intent of "in" is in the song title. @harej 13:47, 20 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Plug In Baby → Plug in Baby — caps —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 20:03, 4 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Capitalizing "in" likely depends on detailed examination of the song's lyrics to find whether the "in" is a preposition ("plug into the baby") or an adverb ("a baby which is plugged in"). Pop music songs are about strange topics sometimes. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 22:28, 4 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Per this Here are the lyrics. I guess you can move or close the discussion based on that. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 01:28, 5 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
From the lyrics it looks like that "plug in baby" should be "plug-in baby" and the "in" is an adverb: the lyrics as printed are inadequately punctuated: for example the first line "I've exposed your lies baby" should be "I've exposed your lies, baby." with a comma before the vocative, and a fullstop. (And, in pop music songs "baby" often means not "infant" but "my girlfriend".) Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:35, 5 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
