This is different - a cover of Queen's We Are The Champions by a group of Tatars willing the Russian team on to victory in the Winter Olympics. I have absolutely no doubt that if Freddy Mercury were still alive he would give a wholehearted thumbs up to this gloriously kitschy rendition of one of Queen's better known rock anthems. It's not just the whole camp aesthetics of the thing - its the joy with which it is sung that makes this such a delight.

I liked it. I wouldn't call it kitschy but ethnic.

If I hadn't heard the original song, I'd think this was a traditional tune. Insane-o-crazy!

However qute this might look, I can't help but see Weird Al Yankovic's face somewhere in that group, happily playing te harmonica or something like that...
