Exploding with Canadiana – Chris Hadfield Plays from Space with Barenaked Ladies

Does Canadian Astronaut Chris Hadfield do any work up in the International Space Station? When I went to the Toronto Maple Leafs home opener last month, the ceremonial puck drop was done by Chris Hadfield – from the International Space Station. Of course, the puck sort of just floated there, but the idea was cool.

Another thing Hadfield recently did from the ISS was record some music with Barenaked Ladies. He must’ve done a lot of planning and scheduling to organize all of these cool events. The song is alright, if not a little gimmicky, but it’s the fact that part of it was played from fuckin’ SPACE that should be mind blowing to you. Hadfield’s voice isn’t bad, either! Check it out below, and have your little maple leaf heart explode with all of this Canadiana in one video – courtesy of the CBC, of course.
