Here are a few more clues about the Mockingjay album:
Quote:
Lorde “curated” every song on the soundtrack.
“I approached an artist and said, ‘Would you like to write for this film?’ So it’s all completely new content, specifically for the film. I’m featured on a few songs.”
At the time of the phone interview, she didn’t think she was allowed to reveal any of the artists, beyond her own lead-off single, “Yellow Flicker Beat.” It will be released on Tuesday, just in time for the show.
The rumored collaborators include Bruce Springsteen. “Safe to say (it will appeal to) a lot of different age groups and listeners,” she says, just like the rest of her career so far.
Florence + The Machine would be perfect for this film. Their three soundtrack songs (Heavy In Your Arms, Breath Of Life, and Over The Love) are all perfection and perfectly written for their respective films.
I doubt Taylor will be on this, though, since she already has done two for THG, and she has a new record coming out right before, so releasing another song separately would be confusing.
But come on, Lorde, you better have gotten Queen Flo.
