Lorde’s Mockingjay Soundtrack Is Very Lorde

Nothing but the Lordiest from Lorde, whose curated Mockingjay soundtrack is as Lorde as it gets: Stromae featuring Pusha T, Q-Tip, and HAIM; the Chemical Brothers featuring Miguel; Charli XCX featuring Duran Duran’s Simon Le Bon; and a track from the elusive Grace Jones. Even a Kanye remix of herself, because if you’re given permission to curate something, you go to Kanye and ask him to remix you first. Here’s the full track list:

  1. Stromae, “Meltdown†(feat. Lorde, Pusha T, Q-Tip, and HAIM)
  2. CHVRCHES, “Dead Airâ€
  3. Tove Lo, “Scream My Nameâ€
  4. Charli XCX, “Kingdom†(feat. Simon Le Bon)
  5. [Track 5]
  6. Raury, “Lost Soulsâ€
  7. Lorde, “Yellow Flicker Beatâ€
  8. Tinashé, “The Leapâ€
  9. Bat for Lashes, “Plan the Escapeâ€
  10. Grace Jones, “Original Beastâ€
  11. Lorde, “Flicker†(Kanye West Rework)
  12. XOV, “Animalâ€
  13. The Chemical Brothers, “This Is Not a Game†(feat. Miguel And Lorde)
  14. Lorde, “Ladder Songâ€

Track No. 5 remains a mystery, but Stereogum is betting on the Lumineers song, as they were rumored to appear. (Why so mysterious, Lumineers?) For a taste, here’s that Chemical Brothers track, featuring Lorde and Miguel, “This Is Not a Gameâ€:
