I watched it, enjoyed it, thought it was cool.   :)

Apparently David Bowie was in contact to say something complimentary.

I guess he, after Freddie Mercury, must be two of the hardest Brits male singers to cover, given how distinctive their voices are. This astronaut, didn't do too bad a job at all.

I don't think it's really about this guy's voice.  I think it's more about the fact that someone filmed a music video for Space Oddity in outer fucking space. :contract:

:lol:  Boy, it took you long enough to get that.  That's what the title refers to!

Speaking as a Canadian in particular... I'm okay with that. :)

He's sexy. :)
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

I think that's a bit much.
