The Academy Award-winning actress is heading for the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart with "The Hanging Tree," from her film The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part I.
Industry forecasters suggest the song, performed by James Newton Howard featuring Lawrence, may sell upwards of 150,000 downloads in the U.S. in the week ending Nov. 30. The song was released as part of Howard's score album for Mockingjay, which was released on Nov. 24.
That's amazing. "The Hanging Tree" is really catchy and the film was amazing. I'm really happy for her. Hopefully "Yellow Flicker Beat" will smash, too.
