For all you that talk s*t on the us shut up and leave! We have the safest and best government in the world. Instead of throwing out your idiotic ideas why don't you just see what the actual band said about the meaning of their song. Not to mention they are from the uk they are talking about their government. Lead singer Matt Bellamy explained: "The lead single, 'Uprising', was kind of inspired by the G20 protests which took place last year. I was in London at the time and I saw it all going on outside where I live." He added: "I sort of found that whole protest quite inspiring really; just the idea that people just having a good time, putting together a peaceful protest but the police still do their best to make it become violent and I find that quite aggravating. So, that's what the song's about." The Muse front-man went on to explain further: "There was a whole economic crisis and the MP scandal which took place last year where everyone felt like they were being ripped off by the powers that be." "I sort of wanted to write a song that summed up that feeling like you've been done over by people you're supposed to trust. That's kind of where the song's coming from really." -Mtv. Uk.
