Singer James Blunt has revealed that his new album Moon Landing is not inspired by astronauts.
The 39-year-old singer, who released his fourth studio album Moon Landing recently, said the name actually refers to performers who accidentally brush bottoms while undressing backstage, reported Contactmusic.
"In the dressing room, if you bend over and the person beside you bends over at the same time, and should your cheeks touch, that's a moon landing. You've associated it with space, but I was thinking of dressing rooms," said Blunt.
The 'Stay The Night' hitmaker said he has suffered his share of wardrobe malfunctions on stage.
"I'm not a great wearer of boxers. I like to be free in my expression. I've torn my clothes, but fortunately I hold a guitar I can hide behind," added Blunt.
