Part of a space-western rock and roll musical. The protagonist broadcasts himself to his lover just before his ship is eclipsed by a giant pulsar and can no longer broadcast for at least a year. He is playing an abba song (Hasta Manana) albeit terribly.  After a year of obfuscation and not being able to talk to his love, his ship will reach a gateway and return to earth within a month. Or will it? Therein lies the crux of the story. Muahahahaha (insert cliff hanger).
