"Saturn" on YouTube |
"Saturn" is a song by American singer-songwriter SZA. It is the lead single from Lana (2024), the reissue of her second studio album SOS (2022). It is a song about nihilism and escapism, discussing one's lamentations about why bad things happen to good people and wishes to leave Earth for another planet, Saturn, where they could possibly live a better life. "Saturn" features a twinkly instrumental, a result of a combination of arpeggios and beaming synthesizers. The song was surprise-released on February 22, 2024, after its official debut at the year's Grammy Awards ceremony over two weeks prior. "Saturn" won Best R&B Song at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards, and was nominated for Best R&B Performance.[1] The cover is a self-reference to the cover of her song "Love Galore" (2017).
