Wembley music?

After giving up on trying to get into the bogs at half-time to take a piss, I got back to my seat just as the teams came out. Stirring guitar music, which I liked. It sounded a bit like something Muse would put out. If it is by them, I can't identify it.
Anyone know/remember what it was? Cheers.
In the second half, it wasn't my bladder that I was worried about......

that just reminded me: i'm glad that one of the post-victory songs exorcised the ghost of luton away. everytime i heard
this song, it reminded me of being crushed at the final whistle at kenilworth road.
it'll still remind me of that, but i'll have a smile as i think of what came afer: promotion at wembley without a town fan in sight.
didn't really like the song anyway, but you hear it bloody everywhere.

I'm afraid I'm one of the 5 million or so people who downloaded it for my iPhone.

does wembley insist on pelting out music at full blast at the final whistle..the one time that the winning side are guaranteed to make a good noise( although we did all day long!)
As least we didnt have to listen to " we are the champions...."

Where might one find the 'Wembley' version of 'She Wore a Yellow Ribbon'?

Song you're looking for is indeed Muse. Knights of Cydonia is the title.

Ah - great, thanks. I'll get it off itunes later, and annoy the household by listening to it loudly whilst necking Bulmer's Pear Cider.
Thought the music at Wembley was rather good - or at least, to my taste (Killers/Kaiser Chiefs et al). Overblown before kick-off and FT though, but what the hell.
As proof that OUFC have emerged from under a stone since Sunday, I was overtaken yesterday AM on the A46 going into Leicester by a Black Merc with an OUFC minikit. Caught up and gesticulated like mad - he grinned knowingly....
