Olympics organizers have selected a song by the prog-rock neo glam trio Muse as the official song of the 2012 London Games -- July 27 through Aug. 12.

A Queen-heavy indulgence, "Survival," had its first broadcast on BBC Radio 1 Wednesday evening, giving Olympic fiends some grandiose fuel for traveling fire, and Muse fans the first sanctioned look at the new record, The 2nd Law, slated for release this fall.

Appropriately soaring and anthemic, "Survival" -- the British band's first new material in about three years -- will be played as the theme for all international television coverage.

Viewers will hear the song when athletes enter the venues, before the medal ceremony, and in your nightmares for the rest of your natural born life (especially vulnerable are those who still harbor deep Guitar Hero resentments about "Knights of Cydonia").
