Muse talked to MTV about their conversation with Chris Weitz and what song they think they will be contributing to the New Moon soundtrack.

Speaking to Zane Lowe the group revealed that they’ve recently spoken to the film’s director Chris Weitz about recording a new version of a song from their album The Resistance.

Singer Matt Bellamy revealed: “I spoke to the director yesterday (and) he wants the track I Belong To You, the sort of vaudeville piano track.

“He wants a rendition of that but the only thing with the new film is they want the songs to be exclusive to the film. So he’s asking if I mind doing, or if we mind doing an alternative version of it.”

Asked if they were up for it Matt said: “I think it’s alright- if it was one of the main tracks on the album I would never do it. But it’s actually one of the weirder tracks on the album.

“(It’s) one of the can’t believe we got away with it kind of tracks. I think it might be worth giving it a go cos it’s a track that might not get played live very often… one of the obscure tracks off the album so it might give that track some life that it wouldn’t have otherwise.”

I just played this one for my husband yesterday to point out how much I like it, especialy the part where he sings in French. It isn’t the song I would have picked for the soundtrack, but that doesn’t mean it won’t work! And I am OK with a reworking of the song because it will be like getting a new Muse song. Looking forward to it.
