"We were on tour abroad, and it got me thinking a lot about America, which lead to me write 'I Love the USA,'" Cuomo said. The band was later approached by Apple Music and NASA to take part in a celebration of NASA's Juno spacecraft's arrival at Jupiter on [[July 4]]. Cuomo said that the song "seemed like the perfect fit" to commemorate the occasion. | ||
