"Burning Desire" at the Jaguar F-Type Launch in Paris

[Sitar]

My suspicions were correct--this is the perfect live song for her.

From the Jaguar website:

 

"The car was revealed in front of the dramatic setting of the 18th century Musée Rodin. Following the reveal, singer Lana Del Rey took to the stage and performed a new track ‘Burning Desire’, that she has written as part of her collaboration with Jaguar for the launch of the F-TYPE. The track is confirmed to be the sound track to a short film that is being produced in association with Ridley Scott Associates and will be featured on her new album."

Do you think that this song was written specifically for Jaguar, or that she just so happened to write the song beforehand, thought it was a perfect fit, and tweaked a few bits?

 

I'm inclined to believe the former, but you never know with Lana.

Starring Golden Globe nominated and Emmy Award-winning actor Damian Lewis, the short film is scheduled to be filmed in South America next month and will be released early 2013."

 

Wow! Ridley Scott directing a small movie with Burning Desire soundtrack, can't get any better, wow!

Although I believe it's personal, it seems to be intended just for the campaign, so perhaps she added the car lines?

It's not like anyone would be that hard-pressed to find a song about driving in Lana's song catalog.

Her two first song at the itunes show were really neat, I was like "where the hell is Lana, are you an evil-perfect-pitched-twin??" then she sang Born to Die, I cringed, she was back.

[Sitar]

Are the white dress/red car pictures official? Like, they'll be ads?

what I loved that performance. especially the outro vocals! It doesn't top the debut at Nouvou, though!

[Coney Island King]

I love her most when she performs live in LONG dresses, it just looks so elegant on her. Great performance and hot car pic.
