More than a decade after Lana Del Rey submitted her song “24” for consideration as the theme to the 2015 James Bond film Spectre—Sam Smith’s “Writing’s On the Wall” was chosen instead—the pop singer has finally collaborated with the franchise. No, it’s not for a new 007 film but a new 007 video game called First Light. Listen to the song below while you wait for news of who the next Bond will be.
Del Rey wrote the track alongside frequent Bond composer David Arnold. In a statement, Arnold said that, “Lana brought an elegance and atmosphere to the song that felt perfectly suited to continuing that tradition while introducing something fresh for a new era.”
In February, Del Rey released “White Feather Hawk Tail Deer Hunter,” the latest offering from her forthcoming album.
