The members of Muse, namely the front-man Matthew Bellamy, have stated that their name was mainly chosen because it looked professional on posters and the like. However, Bellamy has also stated that the name could possibly have stemmed from his interest in spirits, ghosts etc and that his experiences in such fields were like "an odd Muse descending upon us."
Matthew Bellamy said that his mum used to teach him the Ouija board (to speak to the dead) and so he started hanging around these witches (he says to get laid) and one of them said "an odd Muse descending upon us." ...
His mother was the muse Calliope.
Calliaphone
She was the muse of History.
I thought Calliope was one of the 9 Muses and not a horse?Definition: At one time, the goddesses of inspiring springs, the nine Muses became the representatives of poetry, the arts and science : Calliope, Muse of epic song, Clio, Muse of history, Euterpe, Muse of lyric song, Thalia, Muse of comedy and bucolic poetry, Melpomene, Muse of tragedy, Terpsichore, Muse of dance, Erato, Muse of erotic poetry, Polyhymnia, Muse of sacred song, and Urania, Muse of astronomy.
There is no Greek goddess of music, but technically there is a Greek god of music, Apollo. There are also the nine Muses, which brought joy to anyone who heard their music. Their names are:Thalia - Muse of comedy and idyllic poetryMelpomene [mel-po-men-ee] - Muse of tragedyCleo - Muse of history.Euterpe - Muse of lyric poetry.Terpsichore - Muse of music and dancing.Erato - Muse of erotic poetry.Calliope - Muse of epic poetry and rhetoric.Urania - Muse of astronomy.Polyhymnia or Polymnia - Muse of sacred hymns and harmony.http://www.csun.edu/~hchum001/muses.htm
