This song is awesome! Rumored to be their first single off the new album.

I don't think the meaning is that hard to figure out. It definitely sounds inspired by Starman by David Bowie, which is not a bad thing!

I'm pretty sure this songs about how much he doesn't like being famous! think about it he's getting abducted by the music industry in the begining of the song and he thought it would be great but then he CHANGED HIS MIND and he got too famous and people are calling him by his name...

the star maker is the talent agency the dream maker just a metaphor for his own dreams not being like he thought and He is the spaceman (or maybe someone else telling him that being famous sucks) and that the glam and all that about being famous...

I guess it wasn't their first single...I wish it had been though! It's awesome.
