The year’s best space station video

February 13, 2013 by Dave Knadler

I usually don’t just post links to things, but since no other topic leaps to mind, this video is the best thing I’ve seen in awhile: Aboard the International Space Station, Astronaut Chris Hadfield (also a Canadian) plays and sings with the Barenaked Ladies. It made me kind of misty-eyed. Apart from the cool factor, it’s also a pretty good song. And how about that photogenic young choir? I might be persuaded to sing tenor with those lovelies.

I’ve long been a fan of BNL, and it’s good to see they’re still out there making music. What can I say? Canadians rule.

More along these lines:

  • Grammies and grandpas
  • davy jones heart attackOh, what can it mean?
  • Paul Simon strikes another chordPaul Simon strikes another chord
  • Beach BoysKnow these lyrics?
  • Lee BriceStill on the charts? That’s crazy.

    Great song. It amazes me they have the technology to “real-time” that recording.
