When music icon Meat Loaf passed away last week, the tributes quickly came pouring in. However, the latest homage may be the best yet, as it is one that was fit for a king. The Queen’s Guard, the soldiers who stand still outside of Buckingham Palace in London, recently performed a brass version of ‘I’d Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)’ in honor of the late singer.
The Queen’s Guard usually spend their day standing outside of Buckingham Palace, trying to stay still as tourists attempt to get them to move. However, the one thing the group will apparently move for is Meat Loaf. The Queen’s Guard went viral recently thanks to their performance of ‘I’d Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)’ on the grounds of Buckingham Palace.
According to Ultimate Classic Rock, the group performed the song while in their traditional bearskin hats. Many fans enjoyed the tribute, with some asking for the band to share more brass covers of Meat Loaf songs. Clearly the Queen was a big ‘Bat out of Hell II’ fan.
