Along with the release of the film based on the hit novel series comes the soundtrack companion to the film “The Hunger Games: Songs From District 12 and Beyond”.
The album includes the likes of some big names in the industry by the likes of Taylor Swift, Maroon 5 and Miranda Lambert along with some not as well known artists. But all of these wonderful artists come together to create a soundtrack that is dark, edgy and compelling.
The collection helps tell the story of Katniss Everdeen and the themes of the film in music form. Each song focuses on one aspect of the film and it’s themes and captivates you with it’s haunting sounds and compelling lyrics.
The album includes the lead single “Safe and Sound” performed by Taylor Swift featuring the Civil Wars along with another Taylor Swift track “Eyes Open” and another Civil Wars track “Kingdom Come”. Also included is Maroon 5 featuring Rozzi Crane with the track “Come Away To The Water” and country music superstar Miranda Lambert featuring Pistol Annies with “Run Daddy Run”.
Standout tracks would be the album’s lead single “Safe and Sound”, Maroon 5’s “Come Away To The Water” and the Taylor Swift track “Eyes Open” but the other tracks are all more than worthy to be included on this album and I applaud each artist for their amazing efforts.
If you’re a fan of The Hunger Games books and film or just a fan of the artists featured you will more than enjoy “The Hunger Games: Songs From District 12 and Beyond”. Available now from Universal Republic Records and Universal Music Australia.
