Having a pint of Guinness in space might be tough, but Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield found a way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day in space.

The International Space Station commander sang "Danny Boy" and posted it on SoundCloud.

This isn't the first time the astronaut has shown off his musical chops from space. In February, Hadfield recorded a song with the Barenaked Ladies' Ed Robertson.

His outer space rendition of "Danny Boy" wasn't his only tribute to the Irish. Hadfield also tweeted a number of photos of Ireland.
