(CNN) - British Army Band plays ‘Respect" as tribute to Aretha Franklin during the Changing of the Guard ceremony.

The world pauses Friday to remember “The Queen of Soul”, Aretha Franklin.

That includes the guards who protect Buckingham Palace in London.

The Welsh Guard Band came together to play "Respect," one of Franklin's best-known hits.

They played the tune during the Changing of the Guard, which is popular with tourists.

Franklin died earlier this month.

She is being honored Friday in her home town of Detroit with a star-studded memorial service.
