IamThatGirlLily 533 Posted September 24, 2012 It's a little repetitive don't you think? Put Me in a Movie is also repetitive you'd say but at least she's playing with her voice. Not a bad song and definitely not her best. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sitar 22,210 Posted September 24, 2012 Looks like I'm one of the minority that's in love with this song. The instrumentation fits so well, doesn't seem too tortured like much of Born to Die. What a Jaguar ad this'll make. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sitar 22,210 Posted September 24, 2012 I actually was annoyed when I first heard it.. thought it was boring but it is growing on me I think it's a great closing track, the repetition and dirge-like quality is good for that. Just not a single. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baby V Alex 2,859 Posted September 24, 2012 It's a little repetitive don't you think? Put Me in a Movie is also repetitive you'd say but at least she's playing with her voice. Not a bad song and definitely not her best. Brite Lights is repetitive as fuck, I enjoy this, it's a song for an add so I'm not annoyed, I like it 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NEAL 740 Posted October 3, 2012 I actually was annoyed when I first heard it.. thought it was boring but it is growing on me It grows on me now too. i hope it's jusr the quality that makes the song feel... heavy? I get what you mean, maybe cos she sings in her (very) low reg. It almost makes you feel suffocated listening. oh and, I think it's maybe.. Santa Monica, I'm racin' in the lights for you, baby 1 Quote ..but believe me when I say that the surveillance we live under is the highest privilege compared to how we treat the rest of the world.

Coney Island King 26,002 Posted October 4, 2012 Have to touch myself to pretend you're there Ooooooh gorl! The lyrics are fairly simple, however, for me this song is more about the production and mood, and the song is pretty sexy imo. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maxthehitman 1,729 Posted January 22, 2020 I just LOVE this song while driving by the seaside on a sunny day. Takes may cares away ... far away. JUST BLAST this song out of the car speakers way up high into the sky. Driving fast by the seaside, seeing the waves on the sandy beach go by. No people and cars around. Just me and this sound. This sweet melody in my ear whispering sweet words... I've got a burning desire for you, baby I'm trying to get to you, baby I drive fast, wind in my hair push it to the limits because I just don't care ! I've got a burning desire for you, baby Watching the sun set on the horizon driving down a dream in a fast car The video is also cool IMHO 2 Quote - Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Embach 42,302 Posted September 4, 2023 I was today years old when I found out that Burning Desire has an alternate music video (the version without the old vintage clips). And it's honestly even a better version 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
