YUNGBLUD Releases New Song “mars”
British singer-songwriter YUNGBLUD released a new song “mars” from his upcoming sophomore album “Weird!” on November 27th.
The track interpolates David Bowie's “Life on Mars?”, was released from his fourth studio album “Hunky Dory” in 1973.
It was written by YUNGBLUD and Matt Schwartz.
Last year, YUNGBLUD told Metro about the song in an interview, “There's a song called 'Mars' which is important to me, 'cause I had a trans man come up to me and say my track 'Kill Somebody' last year helped his parents with the community he wanted to be in. And [they] allowed him to go from being a girl – they sat with him through his transition to be a boy. I thought that was fucking crazy. He told me about his story, about how nobody understood him, and it clicked with me because it reminded me of 'Life On Mars?' by David Bowie – so I'm paying homage to that.”
The new album is set to released on December 4, 2020.- source : Spotify
