Kyiv Featured in Video by the Band Queen

Right now, humanity requires all the support it can get to keep people going. Maybe this is one of the reasons why Brian May, Roger Taylor, and Adam Lambert recorded a new “lockdown” version of one of the most legendary songs “We Are The Champions”. But this time, the lyrics were changed to “You Are The Champions”, a message addressed to every single person who risks their life to help us survive this pandemic.

This new version also features amazing footage of places all around the world, Kyiv included, that are now empty due to quarantine. You can see a magnificent picturesque shot of Maidan Nezalezhnosti (Independence Square), the central square in Kyiv that can be recognised at first glance by anyone who has ever been to our capital.

This might seem like a teeny-tiny detail, but in reality it shows that we are a part of something much bigger — it shows that Ukraine is struggling as well, people from all around the world are sacrificing something, and the feeling of being united is real.
