Queen fans were treated to a special performance earlier this week when the rock legends and Adam Lambert performed a heartwarming new rendition of the band's iconic hit 'We Are the Champions'.

Taking to Instagram, Brian May shared a video of himself, Lambert and Roger Taylor synced up from their respective homes as they performed the triumphant song.

However, they made one simple — yet significant — tweak, changing the titular pronoun from "we" to "you" in a display of solidarity.
