The “Satellite” music video (featuring a Wall-E-adjacent roving satellite 🥺) again portrays that sense of feeling lost and confused. The two sparked romance rumors in January 2020, and maintained a super low-key relationship until their November 2022 split.Ĭonsidering the fact that Harry was very much with Olivia during the writing and release of “Satellite,” it seems unlikely that it’s specifically about her, and might rather be about any of his other past relationships or lovers. At this time, Harry was in a relationship with director-actress Olivia Wilde. In his April 2022 cover interview with Better Homes & Gardens, the artist shared that he started writing during the pandemic and actually finished the album before the Fall 2021 leg of his Love On Tour. First, let’s rewind a little - Harry’s House debuted on May 20, 2022. mood / I don't wanna talk to you.” From there, the track doubles back to the chorus and bridge, repeating Harry’s wish “to be there for ya.” Overall, the song could be about the ups and downs of relationships, the uncontrollable feeling of falling in and out of love, the messiness of break-ups, and the journey of finding oneself. In the second verse he changes his tune, and instead of begging to be pulled in, Harry sings, “I'm in an L.A. Throughout the song, there’s a clear disconnect between Harry and the subject, who’s just referred to as “she.” Harry sings about “spinning out” and seemingly wanting to be needed and loved by this person, but being distanced from them: “Spinning out, waiting for ya to pull me in / I can see you're lonely down there / Don't you know that I am right here?,” he belts out in the chorus. In the first verse, Harry sings, “You got a new life / Am I bothering you? / Do you wanna talk?,” which suggests a break-up or failed relationship. Although an upbeat tune, the lyrics convey the feeling of being lost and broken-hearted. “Satellite” is anchored around this notion of aimlessly going around and around in circles - ya know, kind of like a satellite. The dreamy, synth-infused bop remains a fan-favorite of the Grammy Award-winning artist, so naturally, we can’t help but wonder what (or who 👀) the song is about.


Surprise! Harry Styles just dropped a new music video for “Satellite,” the eleventh track from his 2022 studio album Harry’s House, and we’re simply over the moon (pun very intended).
