Hear The Muse And Streets Collaboration

added 05 August 2008 at 08.55

A ‘late night jam’ featuring Mike Skinner and Muse has been leaked on-line. You can hear it here.

A collaboration between Muse and Mike Skinner has surfaced on the ‘net. The song - called 'Who Knows Who’ - features vocals from Mike Skinner and was rumored to be on The Streets’ new album which comes out later this year. It’s a typically rocking Muse backing track set to a Skinner rap.

Muse are happy for the track to be leaked and, in a statement on their website, said:

“The MP3 floating around on the message boards at the moment is a track we recorded with Mike Skinner a few months ago. The track was the result of a late night jam session and something we did for a bit of a laugh featuring a blues riff we have been playing live recently upon which Skinner recorded some vocals”.

Check out the track here: 

 So what do you think? Is it bangin'? Is it B***ocks? Let us know below...

  1. I love Muse but don't really like The Streets, though I do like this. I think it's pretty catchy.

  2. Im sorry, but this puts Muse, The Streets, and most importantly Rage Against The Machine to shame. All three are good bands alone, but Muse+Streets=a mess, not "the British answer to RATM", which is basically an attempt at the biggest tribute band since Oasis.
    Stick to what you're good at.

  3. I partly with Chris - Mike Skinner won over plenty on the day, but didn't convert the masses into Streets fans.

    He guessed that it wouldn't rain while Muse were on and was essentially correct.

    On the matter of this tune - it's not about whether or not people love or loathe The Streets. It's about the fact that this tune is rubbish, jam or no jam.

    Muse broadcast it after their V show on Sunday evening and it brought me down to Earth very quickly, from the enjoyment of an otherwise fine performance.

    If it's released as a single, I pray it's released under The Streets, rather than under Muse, as it will look like a carbunkle on their back catalogue.

    Just my view.

  4. I love the way muse fans all hate the streets. I was at the wembley gig on saturday when the streets played and i loved it. At the start of the day whenever the streets were announced everyone was booing, but by the time the streets' set had finished everyone was singing along and loving it. They managed to convert a lot of muse fans that day. Why don't you listen to their music before you dismiss them (Also their live performances are very good, but obviously nothing compared to muse!).

    Tho having said that this song isn't very good. Even if it is just a jam.

  6. It is much better than the comments below. What other tracks released this year are better than this?? It rocks.. it is just a jam and is still better than anything else in the top 40.
