The singer shared that he had always dreamt of writing a tune for the franchise and had written the song as a pitch for the prestigious role...

"I want to do a Bond tune so bad. This isn't a good way of selling it, but I just... I've wanted to do one for years."

"I'd love to [do a] Tina Turner style & absolutely belt something out. There's been so many good ones recently I think. It's cool because it's opening up what a Bond song could be."

The Space Man singer then went on to reveal how this desire had inspired one of the tracks on his album.

"I wrote a song on my record, Tiny Riot, literally as a pitch for a Bond song, because Bond songs always have the same kind of chord structure and stuff."
