"Stockholm Syndrome" is a song by the English rock band Muse from their third studio album, Absolution (2003). The song was released as the album's first single on 14 July 2003 and also appears on the Absolution live DVD. It was released alongside its artwork as a download-only single through the official Muse website. The song's promotional video was included in the "Time Is Running Out" CD single, and was shot using a thermal camera. A different video was made for the song's release in the US, depicting the band playing the song in a fictitious talk show.

In March 2005, Q placed "Stockholm Syndrome" at number 44 in its list of the 100 Greatest Guitar Tracks.[1]
