The track, created with veteran Bond film composer David Arnold, features Del Rey singing over drums, bass and strings before building to a cinematic brass crescendo. “Can’t say I’m surprised to see you running towards the sun/ Like a moth to a flame,” she croons, with lyrics referencing playing “your life like a game.” The 007 First Light game launches in May. Del Rey’s contribution joins the extensive Bond musical canon, following acclaimed songs by Billie Eilish and Finneas, Adele, Paul McCartney, and Madonna.
