At the end of 2014 Paul sang, “We will build bridges up to the sky”
on his single ‘Hope For The Future’, and this week he has done just
that corresponding with British ESA astronaut Tim Peake. Tim joined the
International Space Station this week, the same craft that Paul sang ‘Good Day Sunshine’ to in 2005.
On Wednesday Paul sent the following note:
Hey there! Paul McCartney here. Congratulations on your
great journey. My family is very excited and I am living your journey
vicariously through you. Great stuff, have a brilliant, interesting and
peaceful time up there. Enjoy the view!
All the best,
Paul
All the best,
Paul
Tim got in touch via Paul’s London office to pass on his "sincere thanks" for his kind words:
It seems that space and music have something in common
when it comes to breaking down barriers – certainly all the crew on the
International Space Station are Beatles fans and were equally delighted
when I told them you had written!
With best regards (from somewhere over the Pacific!),
