Clearly inspired by almost of year of social distancing, Nick Jonas' "Spaceman" lyrics aren't subtle when referencing the pandemic and state of the world. He sings, "Mask off minute I get home / All safe now that I'm alone / Almost like a spaceman / I feel like a spaceman (via Genius)." The chorus, which sounds like most of us after a year of Zoom calls with loved ones, sings, "And I'm talking to you / But it never feels like it comes through / I'm on my own, I'm a spaceman."
Jonas fleshed out the rest of his Spaceman album by keeping his wife, Priyanka Chopra, in mind. He admitted that many of the songs are just "love letters" to her. And, in case you were wondering, Chopra has listened to all of the songs and she "loves" the album. "I was away from my wife for a few months while she was filming a movie, and that's when I started making the record. And then the reconnection, understanding there is hope on the other side," Jonas told Zane Lowe.
No word on what the next single will be, but Jonas is excited to be back on the scene. He will be performing "Spaceman" on Saturday Night Live! on February 27 — and he's totally stoked about it. He's been tweeting behind-the-scene photos from his rehearsals all week.
