Not only did the single from _Mockingjay_ land at [No. 29](http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/jennifer-lawrence-breaks-uk-music-752709) on the charts in the U.K., but now the song has gotten the remix treatment. The original track was a haunting, acoustic song with lyrics penned by The Lumineers and _The Hunger Games_ author Suzanne Collins, but the remix is a club-ready jam that might even get some radio play. Lawrence may think she sings like [“a tone-deaf Amy Winehouse”](http://time.com/3583298/jennifer-lawrence-public-singing/), and claimed that singing in public is one of her biggest fears, but the remixed single isn’t all that bad. Not that she should give up her day job or anything. \[H/T [_Vulture_](http://www.vulture.com/2014/12/hanging-tree-dance-remix-hunger-games.html)\] Jennifer Lawrence Hunger Games Song Remix ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3641797/jennifer-lawrence-hunger-games-song-remix/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3641797/jennifer-lawrence-hunger-games-song-remix/"},"headline":"Jennifer Lawrence's Hunger Games Song Gets the Dance Remix No One Asked For","datePublished":"2014-12-19T15:27:15.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:15:28.949Z","description":"The surprise hit song takes on a new life","url":"https://time.com/3641797/jennifer-lawrence-hunger-games-song-remix/","keywords":["Newsfeed","movies","Jennifer Lawrence","Music","The Hunger Games","The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 1"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltb421728f18695c71/6987701ef887dc3fe3e892ae/491898815.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Melissa Locker","jobTitle":"","url":"https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltb421728f18695c71/6987701ef887dc3fe3e892ae/491898815.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"\"The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1\" Party - The 67th Annual Cannes Film Festival","caption":"\"The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1\" Party - The 67th Annual Cannes Film Festival","creditText":"Mike Marsland—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/3641797/jennifer-lawrence-hunger-games-song-remix/","name":"Jennifer Lawrence's Hunger Games Song Gets the Dance Remix No One Asked For"}}]}] ```
