Washington, May 14 (ANI): Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield released a YouTube video of him performing David Bowie's 'Space Oddity' in space on Sunday.
In the video, which has been viewed over a half a million times in less than 24 hours, Hadfield hammed it up for the camera as he crooned about Major Tom, the intrepid, lonely and ultimately doomed space adventurer in the song.
Hadfield stared wistfully out the window and strummed on an acoustic guitar aboard the space station, ABC News reported.
"With deference to the genius of David Bowie, here's Space Oddity, recorded on Station. A last glimpse of the World," Hadfield, who has been active on Twitter and YouTube while in outer space, tweeted out to his followers.
The 'Space Oddity' video even earned a response from Bowie himself, who tweeted out to Hadfield. (ANI)
