Goddamn it Muse, why do you continue to do this kind of shit? The new Muse song, Survival, has just been designated the Official Fucking Song of the 2012 Olympics. Here's the deal, this song is absolute garbage. From the uninspired orchestral intro clearly chosen to make the song "more musical" to the awful lyrics specifically geared towards the Olympics ("Life's a race and I'm gonna win"is seriously in this song) to the generic piano tappings to the lazily sung (and lazily written) melody. The whole thing sounds like a Queen ripoff, from the choir brought up way too high in the mix, to the anthemic feel of FIGHT! FIGHT! WIN! WIN! Matt Bellamy is now a professional panderer. One of the worst songs of 2012.
