Description
According to Matt, in the Radio 1 interview after 'Survival', this track features brass. Muse have cited Prince as the inspiration for the 80's effects on the track. The song is described as having a "hysteric" feel, which is reflected in demented 80's elements such as backwards 'Let's Dance' drumbeats and riffs reminiscent of INXS' 'Suicide Blonde.' It features more gasping vocals from Matt. "That's 'Scary Monsters' Bowie meets Primus," said Matt. "Doing a funk track was for us remembering Rush and Primus, the more slap-bass things we liked." "Those big, spacious, wet, massive drum sounds," added Dom. "It started to conjure up memories of songs we'd listened to or grew up on in the 80's by Prince and Stevie Wonder and we wanted to take it in that direction."[1]
According to the French magazine, Jeuxactu, this song has a "bounding bassline." They've also said that Panic Station is very likely to become a radio hit.
The guitar solo in the middle section resembles that of Hysteria.
This song has been compared to Prince, Queen, Talking Heads, and David Bowie.

Lyrics
You won’t get much closer
Until you sacrifice it all You won’t get to taste it With your face against the wall
Get up and commit Show the power trapped within Do just what you want to Now stand up and begin
Ooh 1, 2, 3, 4 fire's in your eyes And this chaos it defies imagination 5, 6, 7, 8 minus 9 lives You've arrived at panic station
Doubts will try to break you Unleash your heart and soul Trouble will surround you Start taking some control
Stand up and deliver Your wildest fantasy Do what the fuck you want to There’s no one to appease
Ooh 1, 2, 3, 4 fire's in your eyes And this chaos it defies imagination 5, 6, 7, 8 minus 9 lives You've arrived at panic station
Ooh 1, 2, 3, 4 fire's in your eyes, And this chaos it defies imagination. 5, 6, 7, 8 minus 9 lives And I know that you will fight for the duration Ooh 1, 2, 3, 4 fire's in your eyes And you know I'm not resisting your temptations 5, 6, 7, 8 minus 9 lives You've arrived at panic station
