"  If people in Panem could listen to today&amp;#039;s music, we&amp;#039;re pretty sure Katniss Everdeen would listen to nonstop Lorde. So it makes total sense that the Kiwi singer has been picked to &amp;quot;curate&amp;quot; the soundtrack to The Hunger Games: Mockingjay\u2013Part 1. She&amp;#039;ll also record the lead single for the album, according to Billboard. &amp;quot;I sat down with Lorde on the set of &amp;#039;Mockingjay&amp;#039; this spring,&amp;quot; director Francis Lawrence said in a statement. &amp;quot;I was immediately struck by how she so innately understood what we, as both fans and filmmakers, were trying to accomplish with the film.&amp;quot; The soundtrack will go on sale this fall, ahead of the movie&amp;#039;s release on November 21. The singer cheerfully announced the news on Twitter this morning:    building this thing piece by piece has been amazing. i can&amp;#039;t wait to share the other artists&amp;#039; contributions with you. http://t.co/mlZdIDy8Kd \u2014 Lorde (@lordemusic) July 31, 2014    Lorde&amp;#039;s music is a perfect fit for The Hunger Games universe. Her songs are moody, dark, and always against conspicuous consumption. The Capitol would hate her. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
