30 Seconds to Mars Lean Pop on First New Song in 5 Years, ‘Stuck’
Jared Leto’s band Thirty Seconds to Mars with his older brother, the drummer Shannon Leto, have returned with their first original song in five years, the electropop-leaning “Stuck,” which, apart from a dollop of guitar, is assuredly not a rock song.
Regardless, it’s the first single from Thirty Seconds to Mars’ upcoming sixth studio album, It’s the End of the World But It’s a Beautiful Day, out Sept. 15.
Near the bottom of this post, read the lyrics to “Stuck,” watch its music video and see the cover art and track list for It’s the End of the World But It’s a Beautiful Day.

The group had teased “Stuck” in preceding weeks. Anticipation heightened around Jared’s Met Gala appearance last week, where the singer — he’s also an accomplished actor — wore another outlandish costume to onlookers’ bemusement.
In 2002, Thirty Seconds to Mars (then stylized 30 Seconds to Mars) introduced themselves as a rock band with emo and prog elements on their self-titled debut. In 2012, Loudwire named Thirty Seconds to Mars’ 2006 single “The Kill” a top hard rock song. By the time of 2018’s AMERICA, however, it was clear the group had found a new muse in electronic music centered on mainstream pop elements.

Thirty Seconds to Mars, “Stuck” Lyrics
I’ve been lost in your eyes
All afternoon
The more I drift
The closer I get to you
She’s a ghost and the truth
It’s impossible
But I love her lies
You make sure
I don’t find somebody new
It’s the way you move
I knew I’d stay with you
After just one touch
The way you move has got me stuck
Got me stuck
I was lost and then found
Inside of a dream
Running out of the circle
Trying to believe
It’s the way you move
I knew I’d stay with you
After just one touch
The way you move has got me stuck
Got me stuck
