A collaboration with veteran Bond film composer David Arnold, “First Light” opens with Del Rey crooning over a slinking arrangement of drums, bass and strings. “Can’t say I’m surprised to see you running towards the sun/ Like a moth to a flame,” she sings as the composition crescendoes into a cinematic burst of brass instruments. “People try and stop you, all the fates just watch you/ Dying just to know whether you’ll play your life like a game.”
The upcoming “007 First Light” game is set to drop via IO Interactive and Amazon MGM Studios in May. In a lyric video for Del Rey’s theme song shared to her YouTube, fans can see the rendering of the franchise’s infamous secret agent who will serve as the project’s avatar, a tough-looking brown-haired man cooly pointing a gun at a target in the distance.
Though not exactly a Bond film theme, Del Rey’s track joins a broad canon of songs composed for the 007 universe. In 2022, Billie Eilish and Finneas won an Oscar for “No Time to Die,” written for the movie of the same name, and Adele, Paul McCartney, Madonna and more have also contributed memorable Bond anthems over the decades.
Listen to “First Light” and check out the lyrics below.
