As spotted by ConversationDue8475 on Reddit, Lana Del Rey has registered a song with ASCAP (the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers) that shares its name with IO Interactive’s new James Bond game: First Light.
That’s not exactly a smoking gun, given that Del Rey has an album coming out and this could be an unrelated song that just happens to have the same name. But come on, Lana Del Rey would be a perfect fit for a Bond theme of the smoky Nancy Sinatra variety. I reckon she could manage a brassier Shirley Bassey-type song too.
And it would be justice for the fact she wrote a theme for Spectre that ultimately went unused in favor of Sam Smith’s song, Writing’s On the Wall. (The song Del Rey wrote for it was eventually released under the name 24, Spectre being the 24th Bond movie.)
