Queen and YouTube have presented three new fan made videos for the band’s classic songs. QueenOnline.com reported the “You Are the Champions” campaign included contributions from 10,000 fans from over 120 countries to create new videos for “Bohemian Rhapsody,” “Don’t Stop Me Now,” and “A Kind Of Magic.”

According to the website, “(Fans contributed) unique content via the YouAreTheChampions.com microsite, with each video focusing on one of three submission categories. The result is one of the world’s biggest musical collaborations including a musician/singer performance-based video for ‘Bohemian Rhapsody,’ an entire dance-based video for ‘Don’t Stop Me Now,’ and a montage of bespoke work from visual artists for ‘A Kind Of Magic.”

Brian May said in a statement: “It’s one of the most rewarding things that can happen to an artist of any kind: to see that our work has inspired folk all around the world to create their own performances and visual art is a thrill.  And the diversity of their vision is astonishing. Big thanks to everyone who participated.”
