Initially available for immediate digital download upon pre-ordering Del Rey's third EP, Paradise.[1] "Burning Desire" was released as a promotional single on March 19.[2] On Valentine's Day of 2013, a music video for the song was released. Lyrically composed by Lana Del Rey and her long-time collaborator, Justin Parker, the record was produced by Emile Haynie.
Background and composition
In 2012, Del Rey was named the new figurehead of the latest brand of the Jaguar F-Type automobile. To promote the photoshoot, she sang "Burning Desire" at the Paris Motor Show, wearing red lipstick and a white sundress.[3][4][5][6]
The song is composed by Del Rey and Justin Parker, co-author of the bulk of Born to Die. "Burning Desire" is a tragically-themed love song, with the lyrics: "I drive fast, wind in my hair/ I push it to the limits/ 'Cause I just don't care".[7][8] Breathless pants and groans begin the track.[9] On writing the song, Del Rey said: Шаблон:Blockquote
Music video
A promotional video for "Burning Desire" appeared online on Valentine's Day of 2013, featuring Del Rey as her usual lounge singer persona, interspersed with snippets of the Jaguar F-Type.[7] Directed by Anthony Shurmer [10] the video was filmed in the Rivoli Ballroom in London's South end.[7] The video contains "bright red floral imagery, California landmarks name-checked, reckless automotive shout-outs, old Hollywood imagery and cinematic glamour, some epic lipstick[...]".[7] NME called the video "typically sumptuous", heavy on the product placement.[11] Desire Thompson of VIBE noted that Del Rey channeled her inner Jessica Rabbit in the 1960s social-scene video for the promotional single.[12]
Critical reception
Music reviewer Carl Williot wrote that "On "Burning Desire,[...] Lana is no longer willing to let you play your video games, she's the active agent."[13] Nicole Sia of SPIN said the video was a straightforward affair, channeling Del Rey's typical retro-inspired style, interloped with old-fashioned video clips.[9] "Fast cars might not be everyone's idea of paradise, but at least for LDR it pays the bills." Sia concluded.[9] After hearing the song, The Independent dubbed the singer, "Queen of sultry pop".[8]
Usage in other media
The song serves as the title track to a 13-minute promotional short film for the Jaguar F-Type, called Desire.[7][8] The film, directed by Adam Smith, produced by Ridley Scott[14][15] and stars Damian Lewis.[7] Filmed in Chile in 2012, the film was launched in April 2013 at the Sundance Film Festival and available for free streaming online.[8] In the movie, Lewis going by the name Sydney Clarke delivers the Jaguar F-Type to a notorious gangster named Ernesto Martinez (played by Jordi Molla) and finds trouble in a love interest (played by Shannyn Sossamon) in a desert setting.[16]
