The airwaves are buzzing with Thirty Seconds to Mars‘ new track, ‘Stuck,’ marking their first original song after a five-year hiatus. Recently, Jared Leto revealed some heartfelt thoughts about the brand new music video for ‘Stuck’ in an Instagram post, describing it as a ‘love letter.’
Fans have been anticipating the new ‘It’s the End of the World But It’s a Beautiful Day‘ album since the band dropped hints about the first single ‘Stuck’ days ago. This electropop-tinged track, a departure from their rock roots, certainly stirred excitement among the fanbase.
In his recent Instagram post, Jared Leto shared his thoughts on the newly-released music video for ‘Stuck.‘ He conveyed his appreciation for art and photography, attributing it to the influence of his creative mother. He also acknowledged the impact of various photographers on his perception of art.
The music video, according to Leto, is not just a separate entity but a continuation of their artistic journey and a tribute to art, design, fashion, and the people who breathe life into them. Interestingly, he characterized the video as a ‘love letter,‘ reflecting his deep connection with the artistic process and the creative minds involved.
Here is what Jared Leto said about ‘Stuck’s new music video:
“Thanks to my incredibly creative mother, my brother and I were instilled with a love for art and photography from a very young age. The video for ‘Stuck,’ our first new song in five years, is a love letter to some of my favorite photographers. Artists who made a very deep impact on me, like Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, Robert Mapplethorpe, Diane Arbus, Herb Ritts, and more. Artists whose work changed the way I saw things and showed me new possibilities at every turn.
The video for ‘Stuck’ is very much a companion piece and a continuation of a journey started with ‘Up In The Air,’ a celebration of art, design, fashion, and the remarkable people who bring them to life. It is a love letter to the power of movement and connection, a testament to the awe-inspiring potential of people who don’t necessarily fit so neatly in – but make the world so much more fascinating.”
Let’s remember that the new album is set for a September 15 release. This is an exciting time for fans of Thirty Seconds to Mars, with the band promising a fresh sound and an interesting music video that seems to carry a personal message from Jared himself. As the anticipation builds, we can only imagine what more the Leto brothers have in store for us.
