Big Eyes. Tim Burton. Lana Del Rey. Yes, the sultry songstress has lent her entrancing voice to another movie - Tim Burton's Big Eyes, starring Amy Adams. The title track by Del Rey is very much in-keeping with the feel and theme of the biopic, which revolves around Artist Margaret Keane and the fraud of her husband Walter, who allegedly passed off Keane's work as his own (although this is still heavily disputed). Nevertheless, 'Big Eyes' is a real number, a crooning ballad that features some killer string instruments. Del Rey certainly has that classic aura and gravitas, and these types of tracks always showcase her talent best. It's certainly one to listen to.
The track is set to be incorporated into the film at some point, with another of Del Rey's songs for the movie ('I Can Fly') being used for the ending credits. With memorable lyrics focusing on the main themes of the movie "With your big eyes, and your big lies/ Is it me was I wrong to have trusted you" the track is a haunting affair and Lana Del Rey does a chilling job of portraying the movie's key emotional aura. Listen to 'Big Eyes' below:
