The Hunger Games Movie Official Soundtrack!!! Taylor Swift's Song: Safe and Sound


I love The Hunger Games, and I love Taylor Swift, so put those two things together and what comes out?

Complete awesomeness!!!!


Listen to Taylor, just listen to her... OMG IT's REALLY AWESOME!!! I mean, it's very different from what Taylor usually does, but I think it totally goes with the tone of the movie, and the books. It just makes sense, and the way they deliver the song is so heartfelt... I can't wait for the full soundtrack.

The song also features The Civil Wars.

Here's the Facebook Page for the music.

Did you like it?!

Here are the lyrics:

I remember tears streaming down your face
When I said, I'll never let you go
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said, Don't leave me here alone
But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight

Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound

Everything's on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold onto this lullaby
Even when the music's gone

Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound

Just close your eyes
You'll be alright
Come morning light,
You and I'll be safe and sound...

PS; My repeat button is going to HATE me today...

    I love Taylor Swift's You Belong With Me & Love Story just not this one.

    But

    So excited for The Hunger Games though!

  3. I can't say I love it, it's a nice song, with lovely lyrics but I am not loving the melody.

  5. Wow. That is astounding and beautiful. It's perfect for the sort of seedy yet emotional future Katniss lives in where there's so much country, yet devastating city as well.

  6. I like the song, but I never pictured Taylor Swift singing for The Hunger Games. I like her, but she's more teenage angst than "I have to kill everyone in an arena just to make it out alive" angst. Maybe it will grow on me. It's better than I would have expected it to be!

  7. @Cassandra we all are!! :D

    @MissRemmers I know what you mean, I want it on my Ipod already.

    @Sandy Just give it time, and a few repeats ;)

    @Stephanie It's so awesome!! I can't wait for the rest of the soundtrack.

    @SuzKorb Exactly.

    @Sara I know what you mean, but she has such a good voice, and maybe she is expanding on the things she sings about. I like it, it's very haunting, the collaboration is a good one. I bet it will grow on you :)

    Smiles!
