Hunger Games Soundtrack Leads iTunes

The Hunger Games is set to hit the movie screens on 23rd this month and the soundtrack of the young adult novel is topping the iTunes (US), one of the largest online store for music, just a day after the release.

With 16 mostly heart-touching songs from greatly selected artists including The Civil Wars (Kingdom Come), The Decemberists (One Engine), Taylor Swift (Safe and Sound and Eyes Open), and many others, the album is truly a collection that speaks of the emotion and feeling of the movie.

The plot of the hunger games started at the Panem,  the aftermath of an apocalyptic event somewhere in North America, that is composed of the capitol and the 12 district that surrounds it. Each year, every district of Panem send out participants selected through a lottery to participate in the Hunger Games, a public reality TV show, where participants fight for their lives (that means, to kill the rest of participants) until only one survives the game. Watch out how Katniss, the main  protagonist, represents the 12th district, in place of her younger sister, to fight in the outdoor arena and eventually win the 74th hunger game and see how she hold her love set aside for the sake of playing a good game. 

Meanwhile, here is the Safe and Sound music video performed by Taylor Swift, one of the official soundtrack of the movie. You can buy the complete Hunger Game soundtrack on iTunes at $11.99 only.
