Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey belted out We Will Rock You on drums made from an exercise ball as part of his latest bizarre photo-op.
Sir Ed took part in a DrumFit class at Abbotswood Court Care Village in Romsey, Hampshire as part of the Liberal Democrats campaign tour ahead of the General Election.
In footage, Sir Ed can be seen drumming along to the Queen hit while singing, 'We will, we will rock you!' with a huge smile on his face.
Although he keeps the rhythm for the most part, there is a moment where he seems to get confused about whether to hit the ball or slap his sticks together.

Meanwhile, one of his drumming partners to the right side of him in the video looks less than impressive and doesn't crack a smile even once.
But other members of the drum ensemble seem much more happy with some whooping and cheering.
This isn't the first time that the Lib Dem leader was snapped in a quirky photo-op.
On May 30, he hurtled himself down a giant slip 'n slide in an inflatable ring in From, Somerset.

Sir Ed has made headlines in recent days for a number of publicity stunts which included the party leader falling off a paddle board in Lake Windermere
Donning a grey rash vest and a pair of trunks, he climbed into a rubber ring at the summit of the more than 300ft tall yellow and green water slide, before hurtling himself down at great speed.
The election stunt was to promote the Lib Dem's new policy on child mental health.
It came two days after he was snapped falling off a paddleboard on Lake Windermere.
The stunt was to put pressure on the Tories over the UK's sewage crisis.
Earlier this month it was claimed millions of litres of raw sewage were 'illegally pumped' into the Lake District beauty spot by United Utilities after a fault was not corrected for hours.
However, the Lib Dems claim these are more than just silly photo ops, The centrist party claims they are attempts to gain publicity in an election campaign so far dominated by the two main parties.
The stunts have also been used to put the spotlight on their policy proposals.
