The Hunger Games: Songs From District 12 And Beyond Reviews
| 19 of 23 people found the following review helpful  Wonderful, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: The Hunger Games: Songs From District 12 And Beyond (MP3 Download) Wben the soundtrack list was first revealed I was skeptical about a few of the choices. I literally said WTF when I saw Kid Cudi on there. I take it all back. With the wide array of artists it could have sounded horrible, but it doesn't.

It is AWESOME. From there, we hear a string of quieter songs -- the Secret Sisters' softly uplifting "Tomorrow Will Be Kinder"; Neko Case's rippling "Nothing To Remember"; the Civil Wars' trembling duet "Kingdom Come"; the Low Anthem's murky "Lover is Childlike"; Jayme Dee's warmly contemplative...

The Civil Wars, Taylor Swift, The Secret Sisters,ect....What I don't like is how everyone keeps complaining about how sad or slow the music was. How it was depressing. Duh kids are forced to starve, work, then kill each other!! What would you rather the songs be LMAO, Pit-Bull, Ke$sha? Give me a break. The book was set in the mountains, movie was made right here in North Carolina, yes in the mountain... so you get Mountain music. Great soulful folk, mountain music. I loved all of the songs.... So please music editors keep up the good work on setting the tone and mood of the movie with your great pick of music combos!!!!!!! For the people who complain about the music, guess what don't listen to it!!! I for one, who was born in the apl. mountains and raised in the south have great appreciation for the style of music you picked to use in the movie that repersents our heritage and style!!!! |
