Song: Safe and Sound
Album: The Hunger Games (OST)
Artist: Taylor Swift and The Civil Wars
If you haven't read Suzanne Collins' "The Hunger Games," or been caught up in the hype of the upcoming movie... well... here's Taylor Swift's (heard of her, right?) song Safe and Sound to be featured in the movie. The song like the book conveys a sense of desolate landscape. The video helps bring the sparseness of the music into sharp relief. Even if you close your eyes and imagine the world of oppressed people, the music does nothing to assuage the feeling, only Taylor's voice offers the support needed to cling to sanity. A perfect companion for the book.
