I am so proud that Tove wrote a song that actually fits the movie. In an interview she said she re-read the books when got the job, to understand Panem better, and wrote the song in 3 days. This is one of 2 or 3 songs on the album that actually feel like they are about the movie, and not just a single from their own album. I mean, seriously, what is Ariana Grande doing there with her bubbly pop?
This is really good but you don't understand the lyrics of lorde song yellow flicker beat then u really don't understand hunger games at all that's why lorde song was the best but this is still good
Shamur Stewart That's not the point though. The point is why Lorde did just that. I am not blaming Ariana, her song is fine. But it does not fit the theme and she should not have been hired for this.

Dead and gone, will they scream my name? Scream my name [Verse 2] Wake up, guard up, and I'm bored Night runs with guns, too hardcore Don't dare to care about someone I'm dirt, I'm ice, is that wrong? [Pre-Chorus] Love it when I'm play-pretending When I can take bullets to the heart Fuckin' up my happy ending But I can take bullets to the heart [Chorus] Breathing violence and love, I was born on the scene Now it runs in my blood, yeah, you know what I mean When I'm dead and gone, will they sing about me? Dead and gone, will they scream my name? Breathing violence and love, I was born on the scene Now it runs in my blood, yeah, you know what I mean When I'm dead and gone, will they sing about me? Dead and gone, will they scream my name?

Why isn't this girl gettin what she deserves, like she has 15 / 6 / 20 and etc million views on her music videos. I can't stand it. And her lyrics are pure PERFECTION.
I think it's because Tove Lo sound like Selena or Selena sounds like Tove Lo. I love Tove Lo, but yes, she sounds like Selena in one song. It's something in how deep her voice is or the way she uses it that makes her sound like Selena. Whatever, they are different, of course, but sometimes they sound the same
Tove Lo really reminds me of Johanna Mason from the Hunger Games - I don't know if anyone else has ever thought the same! She's fierce and powerful but also clearly vulnerable and damaged. This song sounds more like Johanna than Katniss because it has a lot of anger and hatred, also Johanna is so witty and brave but scared as well. They also look alike (Jena Malone)! What do you think? Love this song, haven't stopped listening since it was released.
Can we please stop talking about Selena? I'm a Selenator and I love them both but their voices are completely different. Tove Lo did a great job writing the song. It fits The Hunger Games and it is amazing. Well done Tove Lo.
Their voices are actually not completely different. They do have very similar tones to their voices. I'm not even a fan of Selena, and I've only heard a few of her songs, and after hearing Tove Lo I thought it was Selena because they have similar tones to their voices. The difference is that Tove Lo can actually sing live.
Shamur Stewart I'm not saying that there is no similarity. There are some similar tones (just like OptimistHunter Reel said) but not to a point that every comment is about Selena.
Shamur Stewart I don't think I'm important (I'm probably the most ignored person in the world) but I just commented my opinion. Stop making so big deal about it. What's your problem anyways?
~ Loving TOVE LO more & more each day. Recently read she was having throat surgery. Heres hoping for a speedy recovery. The music scene needs this Sweede.
I'm thankful the Lord revealed you to me. You make me smile, afraid, strong, brave, and hopeful at the same time if that ain't heaven i don't know what is. Baby!!!
holy shit. I was 13 when I first heard of this song and it became my favourite of al time. Dang, how could I ever forgot about this song omg nostalgia.
Yuno Zaim What are you talking about? We're you replying to someone? And if so, why didn't you just reply to their commoner directly? If I sound patronizing or passive-aggressive, I don't mean to and sorry.
I do. I would do anything to get a *good* Hunger Games spin-off/sequel movie and/or book. I had to find new fandoms (I hate that word, it conveys pre-teens obsessing over Twilight, but, back to my point) because being intersted in something that's over isn't really healthy. Percy Jackson and Star Wars for the win!
Ify Ugbogu I mean besides the main trilogy. My mistake for not being clear enough. Expanding the lore and bigger universe of the story is what kept both Star Wars and Percy Jackson afloat after all these years.
daphnie angel me too. we can still read and watch them over and over again, but it'll never be the same. we'll never wait for a new book / movie and that makes me sad 😧 🔥
Although i am not to fond of this singers actual personality, she has an absolutely beautiful voice, and to tie in with the inhuman vocal talent she can write. Her lyrics are literally perfect on every song. Ebba's voice should be a inspiration to most if not all singers that are starting.
Abid Alam lol okay, I haven't listened to this singer a whole lot but i have seen a ton about her all over the internet, I just Googled her and that is the name Google told me :)
C'est.. C'est Juste Parfait, Mon Dieu ! La Voix De ToveLo est comparable à aucune autre, elle est juste parfaite. J'suis fan, à fond ! Continue, ToveLo.
