Jonas revealed "Spaceman" was based on four central themes: distance, indulgence, euphoria and commitment.

The title track of the album is also called "Spaceman," which delves into the time when everyone was quarantined due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The song also reflected on the anxiety the singer felt during the presidential election.

"Music has always connected the world and helped us to heal. I hope this music helps you on your journey through space and time," he added. "Spaceman (the song) is officially out now and the album is available for pre-order before it lands on March 12th."

In an interview with Apple Music's Zane Lowe on Thursday, the singer opened up about the concept of "Spaceman."

"I think the key for me was trying to find a way to give this idea a persona, give it a name. So 'Spaceman' came into my mind because I was thinking, 'What's the one thing that all of us have felt during this time?' It's just completely disconnected from the world," he explained.

Jonas added that people became "accustomed" to looking at the screen during the lockdown period rather than talking to others in person.

"I think the thing that keeps us all encouraged and hopeful is just the idea of knowing that there will be a tomorrow when this isn't our reality, and I think the body of work as a whole tracks that," he added.
