The difference is pretty subtle, but Kanye’s version is a bit more haunting and sinister than the original. As the eerie notes play, you can definitely imagine Katniss marching bravely into some smokey, dimly-lit wooded area. Or something else _Hunger Games_\-y. You get it. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3579149/hunger-games-mockingjay-lorde-yellow-flicker-beat-remix-kanye-west/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3579149/hunger-games-mockingjay-lorde-yellow-flicker-beat-remix-kanye-west/"},"headline":"Listen to Kanye West's Remix of Lorde's Hunger Games Song","datePublished":"2014-11-11T21:33:47.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:14:32.557Z","description":"'Yellow Flicker Beat' now sounds even more haunting","url":"https://time.com/3579149/hunger-games-mockingjay-lorde-yellow-flicker-beat-remix-kanye-west/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Music","Lorde","kanye"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltf411561d0b6a4185/69869e75169ab0c86727a9e2/lorde-cows.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltf411561d0b6a4185/69869e75169ab0c86727a9e2/lorde-cows.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"lorde-cows","caption":"","creditText":"Mark Horton/WireImage – Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3579149/hunger-games-mockingjay-lorde-yellow-flicker-beat-remix-kanye-west/","name":"Listen to Kanye West's Remix of Lorde's Hunger Games Song"}}]}] ```
