What sad is that if this was a song by a different artist that record company probably wouldn't have given a shit and would continue to copyright claim this. Bowie was only able to succeed because of the absolute legend that he was.
@boson96 Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield performed "Space Oddity" on board the International Space Station (ISS). With the express permission of Bowie it was released on RUclips on 13 May 2013. This was the first music video to be made in space." this is in "Major tom wikipedia" but right after that sentence there is a link to the full story. (9), (10), and (11). I cant write the full link, I don't want to be reported for spam.
In an interview, this is what Chris had to say about Bowie: "Bowie described my song as the most poignant version of the song ever done, which just floored me. I think, for him, he knew he was ill - it was getting to the end of his life. He wrote that song at the beginning, when he was still 19 or 20, before we had even walked on the moon. He had always fantasied about flying in space - Starman, and Mars, and all that other stuff, and I think for him it was just like a gift, to have that song updated with the lyrics, performed actually in space, just a couple of years before he was taken. To me that might be the best part: that he got delight out of my particular version of the song."

There's something surreal about seeing something that you associate with SF movies and literature, knowing that it's real footage, made in space. The answer to the first questions posed by our ancestors looking into starry night sky.

Can we just appreciate that Chris Hadfield didn't just sing Space oddity on the ISS for us. He produced a whole f'in music video in High quality. While working up there
Hate to be that guy but The actual story is way better. He recorded himself singing and some nice visuals as requested by his son. Chris then send the recordings down to earth for his son to edit into THIS video. He only saw the full finished video once he landed back on earth.
@@tj4y48 Wait. I don't get it. The original comment said Chris produced with this music video (i.e. made ot himself) and you only added in that his son edited it. I'm a bit confused. Am i missing something?
he said it only took about one and a half hours to record and he sent it back to earth for his son to edit and release it edit: yeah sorry i only saw someone had said it after i posted but now i dont wanna delete it incase you get a notification ._.
@@doublenfreundkase6656 I concur. It's possible that there are other civilizations in the universe making video clips on Dyson Spheres worth possibly quattuorvigintillions of earth dollars. Now, that would be a tough swag factor to beat.
I’ve worked on nearly every program at SpaceX and return every few months to watch this video, because it’s such a perfect distillation of every reason that gets a person into this industry. Thank you, Commander Hadfield, for this extraordinary video that, for a few minutes, makes every excited child-turned-adult in the aerospace world feel the ecstatic wonder of being Major Tom. You are one of my personal heroes and I feel so grateful to share this moment in time and space with you.
Chris Hadfield: _Makes his own version of the song Space oddity_ Record label: Hey, David Bowie we're gonna take this down becaus- David Bowie: No, keep the video Record label: What? He literally sto- David Bowie: I said keep the video
@@32artjenkins Apparantly, David Bowie had explicitly stated that Hadfield should get a free liscence to this song. Bowie's publisher took the video down back in May 2014 but was restored in Nov 2014 after some negotiations. More info on the wiki page of Space Oddity
Possibly the best cover song ever. Space Odessey sung by a man in space, and the original master of the song fighting his own record label to make sure the world had the chance to hear it!? In a word: Epic.
And to think this video was taken down for copyright 3 years ago. Thanks David Bowie for speaking out against the record company. Thanks Chris for your love of space, science, and all things fun.
It is a shame though that the Starman was only able to get the license pushed to November of this year, then this song may be gone for good. I for one have downloaded it and I will keep it forever.
According to him, none of the astronauts placed the guitar in the ISS. It was a NASA psychiatrist who put the guitar there. The psychiatrist obviously understood the importance of arts & entertainment in boosting the morale and productivity of its space occupants. I found out this trivia when he gave a talk recently in Vancouver. Canada. It was a very informative & lively talk. Certainly worth the $100 I paid for the ticket. I highly recommend it.
Watched the secret life of walter mitty yesterday and this song played. Had to rewatch this beautiful rendition of Bowie again. 10 years later it still makes me emotional
The record company that owns the music wanted it taken down but Bowie said hell no it's the best cover of that song ever made then chris got to meet him i think.
Yes... he did... Fun fact is that he didn't wanted to make a video of singing song up above there... but his son told him that he'll(Mr.Chris) regret for not doing that His son had chanced some of the lyrics as Mr.Chris Hadfiled told that the song is about an astronaut dying in the space... And pretty much sure he didn't wanted to do that... as he was living there... So, his son chanced some of the lyrics for him... Really a great video.. which goes nicely with song(changed one)
WOW. This is quite something. And Commander Chris Hadfield has a great voice for it too. RUclips wanted to take this down for copyright issues with the original by David Bowie, but David Bowie himself battled with his recording company to put it back up because he liked it. So cool!
And rewrites the bit where the astronaut dies but rewrites him coming back and then showing up his coming from the ISS which I think can be a comforting alternative for major Tom
@@someguy3999 But when Bowie wrote it #1 there was a much higher chance of astronauts actually dying in space or on re-entry (remember the crew of Apollo 13 almost didn't make it back) and #2 I don't think there were any that also had the musical talent to pull this off lol
@@someguy3999 Actually, this song was written and released ahead of the Apollo 11 moon landing 1n July 1969, while the first space station, the Soviet Union's Salyut 1 was launched in April 1971. So while the concept of space stations might have been around when the song was written, there were no actual space stations when Bowie wrote the song.
I cannot even begin to describe the amount of chills that I get when he sings "here am I sitting in a tin can, far above the world" and you can see the Earth behind him. Amazing.
@@anthonylv64 What a sad thing to believe. I don't envy you. I say this with no sarcasm, and all sincerity: I hope you get professional help with whatever has pushed you to such extreme skepticism, and find real purpose and happiness in life.
Fun fact: my bluetooth earphone was disconnected to my mobile phone while on the subway, and I played space oddity without knowing it was played over speaker. Nobody complaining and I start to realize when the dude next me start humming to the song. I decided to let the song finished before putting my earphone back. No regret after all
I love how he rewrites the bit where the astronaut dies but rewrites him coming back and then showing us his coming home from the ISS which I think can be a comforting alternative for major Tom
I believe what actually happened to Major Tom was that he faked his death because he preferred to be among the stars, of which he now considered his home.
Who would have imagined that someone would ever play a song in space, outside our planet, and then millions of people could see it from all over the globe without being there? truly amazing.
From a generation who all wanted to be Astronauts to ride the fire into the sky, you carry our hopes and dreams with you up there. You make us proud. God bless you all and safe travels.
Big Thumbs up for saying this. Bowie was never driven by money and from what I have seen here on YT he was genuinely humbled by this video. Who wouldn't be.
Damn, I just cried.. I'm just 17 years old, i have discovered Davie Bowie 3 month ago, but his songs makes me dreaming about life Sorry for bad english, i'm french but I have to share this
+captloki13 They sent the creator of Star Trek Gene Roddenberry's remains into space. I don't know if Bowie was an influential as Gene Roddenberry, but I don't see why they couldn't. Unless it was against his wishes and he wanted to be buried on Earth.
+captloki13 Do you know what would have been great? If Major Tim Peake took Bowie's ashes into space and released them when he was stepping through the door on his spacewalk. Then he could truly become stardust.
I remember watching this when it was posted and thinking "no one can be as amazing as this man", my mind as not changed since then. love you Mr. Hadfield.
@@danielalexander5153 well maybe he paid for the absolute shit load of education that u need to become an austronaut. Atleast he paid with time and hard work.
My son had not long turned 1 year old when David Bowie passed on. He's 9 now and do you know what his favourite song is? You guessed it. A truly great song from a great musician/artist still winning new fans. Thankyou, David Bowie. Rest well.
I remember watching this on the day it released and now here we are, inching closer to a decade later. I was starstruck by it then, and 8 years later at 2:00am I'm still trying to understand those complex feelings this video still gives me. Life is a trip, man.
He actually said in his book that during his last moments on the space station he felt "not sad but respectful". And that his time in space meant so much to him but Earth was home to everyone he loved. Lastly that leaving space made him appreciate living on Earth more than ever!
@@AleksyCastillio No, he wouldn't be staying there forever. Nasa decided how long he was up there for. The chances of him going back to the station are very low and he were getting old at the time.
Wait, he cant even sing this, he isn’t ground control. Bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Everybody may have said this already: But this is an exceptional combination of the human endeavours in arts and science, and thus maybe the most beautifully human thing ever.
I know a lot of people are joking and having fun but honestly...this is one of the most emotional things ever imo. When the song was originally written it wasn’t too long before we landed on the moon, and the song was actually released 5 days before Apollo 11 landed. To see this song be performed in space is some kind of universal fate honestly. It’s amazing.
I never get tired of this. For nearly 10 years once or twice a week. Can't explain it or the feelings, for many times it is different. 2020 was when this really made an impact on me. Thank you for this.
Hopefully one day, 1000 years from now, some kid in his tenth grade history class reads about Chris Hadfield making the worlds first music video from outer space.
@@knowledgewillincrease7508 proof? "and may god's love be with you" a song about space ik he did not make the song, but it still shows the fact that you are wrong, as it is still about space, and astronauts that go into it
he put the bar pretty high though. it's the sort of legacy you can't really live up to, or you may attempt to live up to, but destroy yourself on the way... just imagine: "oh, you are Chris Hadfield's grandson? we can expect great things from you then!". imagine having to live up to those expectations all your life, and basically being socially defined by your relationship to a great family member, rather than for your own personality or achievements!
This man I swear! He can speak 2 languages, sing, amazing at physics, made it through being blind on a spacewalk, and saved the space station by estimating how far away one of the docking things were with his hand and watch! Amazing!
American here- If you're reading this, Mr Hadfield, just know that you're an inspiration to us all, plus, you got to play David Bowie, in SPACE! Coolest thing ever! As a child of the 60's, want you to know that you're my hero!

The actual story is way better. He recorded himself singing and some nice visuals as requested by his son. Chris then send the recordings down to earth for his son to edit into THIS video. He only saw the full finished video once he landed back on earth.

I really hope that the record label has the decency to extend the licence indefinately
Really? But it's just a cover?
So?
CSA: How important is it really to put a guitar in space?
Chris: Yes
he said in an interview that the guitar is still there and was there since 2001 because a lot of astronauts are singers and it's good entertainment
It's really important that astronauts are able to relax. Otherwise the productivity collapses
There's actually a really major music scene there. They even have a band with variable members depending on who is on Earth or not called Max Q.
ninja34744 no u
According to him, none of the astronauts placed the guitar in the ISS. It was a NASA psychiatrist who put the guitar there. The psychiatrist obviously understood the importance of arts & entertainment in boosting the morale and productivity of its space occupants. I found out this trivia when he gave a talk recently in Vancouver. Canada. It was a very informative & lively talk. Certainly worth the $100 I paid for the ticket. I highly recommend it.
Watched the secret life of walter mitty yesterday and this song played. Had to rewatch this beautiful rendition of Bowie again. 10 years later it still makes me emotional
The fact that this was filmed when David Bowie was still alive............. This warms my heart so much.
One of those times when a story ends happily
The record company that owns the music wanted it taken down but Bowie said hell no it's the best cover of that song ever made then chris got to meet him i think.

This is not just a cover of a song.

Like my science teacher said on the last day of school: “ Imagine writing a song about space, then around 40 years later a man in space plays it”
And rewrites the bit where the astronaut dies but rewrites him coming back and then showing up his coming from the ISS which I think can be a comforting alternative for major Tom
It's not like space stations weren't around when Bowie wrote the song..
@@someguy3999 But when Bowie wrote it #1 there was a much higher chance of astronauts actually dying in space or on re-entry (remember the crew of Apollo 13 almost didn't make it back) and #2 I don't think there were any that also had the musical talent to pull this off lol
@@someguy3999 Actually, this song was written and released ahead of the Apollo 11 moon landing 1n July 1969, while the first space station, the Soviet Union's Salyut 1 was launched in April 1971. So while the concept of space stations might have been around when the song was written, there were no actual space stations when Bowie wrote the song.

I love how he rewrites the bit where the astronaut dies but rewrites him coming back and then showing us his coming home from the ISS which I think can be a comforting alternative for major Tom

The song's lyrics never mentioned the death of the protagonist. That's just an automatic conclusion we all came to.

"planet earth is blue,
and i'm coming home to you."

I know a lot of people are joking and having fun but honestly...this is one of the most emotional things ever imo.
