This is a remarkable and amazing tribute, made even better by the fact that the carillon is operated by human hands (the Utrecht Klokkenluiders Gilde) instead of the modern habit of computer programmed bells. Bravo. 

From the Huffington Post:

David Bowie’s death has rightfully sparked a multitude of tributes, but this could be the most spine-tingling of them all.

Bells at a 634-year-old church tower in the Netherlands rang out the tune of his 1969 classic “Space Oddity” on Monday.

Marchal Molenaar filmed the wonderful rendition emanating from the Dom Tower in Utrecht and posted it to Facebook, where it’s going viral.
