WATCH: New Muse Olympics track

Frontman Matt Bellamy says, "The song will be played throughout the Games including when athletes enter the stadium, in the lead up to the medal ceremony and also as the theme for all international TV coverage... We are honoured that the Olympics have chosen our song to officially represent the London 2012 Olympic Games across the globe."

Having recently premiered the first track from their 6th studio album, the Devon lads are planning a short UK tour after the summer. No Irish dates have yet been announced, but watch this space.
