[W]hile Mr. Bowie would give his full support to the use of the song by Commander Hadfield, Space Oddity was the only one of more than 300 songs he has written and recorded for which he did not own or control the copyright. Mr. Bowie offered to have his people call the publisher and convey his strong support, but he had no ability to personally dictate any of the terms of the licence or even require the publishers to issue one. Basically, when the hullaballoo about astronaut Hadfields video covering Bowies tune was pulled the media said, Oh Bowie pulled support what a weenie. That wasnt true at all. BOO TO YOU WHO BELIEVED ILL OF BOWIE. Bowie begins with BOW. So. YEAH.
