Here's something you might not have expected to see in 2014, Daft Punk's 'Get Lucky' being sung by a Russian police force choir at the opening ceremony of the Sochi Winter Olympics.

No, it really did happen, with two lead singers providing the majority of the spectacle at the front and in the background stood rows of officers in full uniform.

A video of the ensemble performing the hit song at a Kremlin function went viral last year ahead of the ceremony, and the choir is also known for performing Adele's theme for the James Bond movie Skyfall.

Watch the Russian Interior Ministry police doing their thing and performing 'Get Lucky' in the video below.
