Lorde is undoubtedly one of the biggest names in the music industry right now, and she is doing an incredible job in her role as the curator for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 soundtrack.

"I think the soundtrack is definitely going to surprise people." There is no doubt about that! This week, the full track list was unveiled, featuring musical A-listers like Charli XCX, Haim, Grace Jones, and several noteworthy up-and-coming artists.
