The Hanging Tree’ James Newton Howard ft. Jennifer Lawrence (Official Audio)

I like the straightforward performance of this, truly sounding like a folk song, especially the first part before the tempo picks up.

This hapaning in reaalll life longe life resistence

Long life resitence 🇵🇸

The song actually roots back to a dark time in early America. If you know you know

Free 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

🍉🍉🍉🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be. Always play in my head.

i keep seeing people complain about others diss her voice, but ive seen literally nobody call it bad😭

anyone else here after watching The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes ?

hey! how are you? i hope you have prayed today! we need to expand the kingdom of Heaven! many souls are going to hell! Heaven is a place of peace and loving with the Lord our God. hell is a place where u burn in the lake of fire for eternal life without no rest, and, there is no second chances! turn to Christ while u still have the choice!! Don’t let satan deceive you! repent of your sins before it’s too late!!!! A lot of things are also demonic, such as shows, stranger things and harry potter! Also homosexuality is a sin!! 1 Corinthians 6:9

I know who sang this song first!!

I was listening to this while playing BG3 (only the ambiance on on game), and oh my it was a while different experience

I love this song! And the Katnis is the Genifer Lorens

Love this song and love Lucy Gray's version too 😢❤

We didn't sing it anymore, my father and I, or even speak of it. After he died, it used to come back to me a
lot. Being older, I began to understand the lyrics. At the beginning, it sounds like a guy is trying to get his girlfriend
to secretly meet up with him at midnight. But it's an odd place for a tryst, a hanging tree, where a man was hung
for murder. The murderer's lover must have had something to do with the killing, or maybe they were just going to
punish her anyway, because his corpse called out for her to flee. That's weird obviously, the talking-corpse bit,
but it's not until the third verse that "The Hanging Tree" begins to get unnerving. You realize the singer of the song
is the dead murderer. He's still in the hanging tree. And even though he told his lover to flee, he keeps asking if
she's coming to meet him. The phrase Where I told you to run, so we'd both be free is the most troubling
because at first you think he's talking about when he told her to flee, presumably to safety. But then you wonder if
he meant for her to run to him. To death. In the final stanza, it's clear that that's what he's waiting for. His lover, with
her rope necklace, hanging dead next to him in the tree.

I used to think the murderer was the creepiest guy imaginable. Now, with a couple of trips to the Hunger
Games under my belt, I decide not to judge him without knowing more details. Maybe his lover was already
sentenced to death and he was trying to make it easier. To let her know he'd be waiting. Or maybe he thought the
place he was leaving her was really worse than death. Didn't Iwant to kill Peeta with that syringe to save him
from the Capitol? Was that really my only option? Probably not, but I couldn't think of another at the time.

I guess my mother thought the whole thing was too twisted for a seven-year-old, though. Especially one who
made her own rope necklaces. It wasn't like hanging was something that only happened in a story. Plenty of
people were executed that way in 12. You can bet she didn't want me singing it in front of my music class. She
probably wouldn't like me doing it here for Pollux even

Mockingjay Chapter 9

Love you Angel

For me.. it means something else.. beautiful voice

I wonder why they changed “a necklace of rope” to “a necklace of hope”

U think I'm fucking edget they try go eye

Manipulated tree blessing literally denied by 4

All the comments saying people think she can't sing. This is blues. It doesn't matter if her voice cracks, it's supposed to. Put it to a guitar, and stamp on an old box for the rhythm, it'll fit right in 🙌

I wish there was a version where it was just an extended version of all the people singing together

9 years damn

They must have never heard Clint Eastwood sing!!

I personally think the song is sung as it was intended (with emotion) and is very poignant especially in these times ❤

This, is the song. Not some musical number.

Her acting is so real even her voice in singing. she is really a great acter.

This is a chilling song when you watched the movies

She is souposed sound like that cuz Hunger Games kinda a Horror movie she sounds sad

Lucy Gray's Timeless voice ❤❤😢

This song is relevant now more than ever, gives it entirely a different sort of power and feeling. 🍉🇵🇸

Haters be hatin she's a great singer No Doubt

hanging tree >

Mmm

Why the hell are people saying this is bad?!?! It’s frickin amazing! Her voice is soothing and overall vibe of the song is hauntingly beautiful

People think this is bad singing? This is really lovely.
Its really raw and rustic.

Just watched the Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes and now I know this song was about the man, Arlo Chance, who was hanged and accused for murdering a peacekeeper and two mine bosses (“murdered three”) and he called for Lil, his lover to flee when she screamed and protested his innocence. He screamed “Run, Lil!” right before he was hanged 😭😭😭😭😭

Are you, are you comin' to the tree?
Where they strung up a man, they say, who murdered three
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree
Are you, are you comin' to the tree
Where dead man called out for his love to flee?
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree
Are you, are you comin' to the tree
Where I told you to run, so we'd both be free?
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree
Are you, are you comin' to the tree
Where necklace of hope, side by side with me?
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree
Are you, are you comin' to the tree
Where I told you to run, so we'd both be free?
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree
Are you, are you comin' to the tree?
Where they strung up a man, they say, who murdered three
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree
Are you, are you comin' to the tree
Where the dead man called out for his love to flee?
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree

Goosebumps everytime

Lucy Gray is the reasen why snow becomes so evil 😢

i dont like her much i dont like her her or her acting but song was ok.for me problem was so much pushed up.i mean like similar movies or books etc heroes had some kind real power or hold something real this was waslike today all created organda war she wasnt best fighter she wasnt best person she was nothing she isnt special at anyway.that maybe some kind atraction like she wasnt super hero .shw wasnt even cleverest erson everyone kind a build it for her.incuding i forget that diffrent typed name pter?
again i dont like her acting ot herself this was some kid and teenager series which all power come from book anyd story not from her and powerful acting
like some day people gone forget it all.
like once opon a time kid little girls were crazy about twlight who care now that silly actors some even cant even find any decent roles like playing wolf actor
i didnt watch nwq movie i didnt fell it becouse of was so populer i look up much later time on it was ok.cast was good lot of good actors were secondart roles
just people go greedy like similar series divercy was divided 2 part they were greedy resulyt movie series colopse due those greeds
her claiming before her no woman hero lead movies etc crap not help it as well.
her sing not bother me if i put list wont even become top 100 if she was like in music film dunno like pergect ptch think in then i can get in ciritisim agree or not can understant but on this no she can be signed much worst then this and will be ok.

Love her voice❤

I finally understand this song

Touching song...I remember all the men that was hung at the hanging tree

For me, this song is about sacrifice. Sacrificing for the greater good. Sacrificing oneself for others to carry on. The essence of this song is incapsulated in the scene where the dam is blown up so the victors can be rescued.

Je crois que notre monde aurait grand besoin d’une Katniss…

I love this

2024✋🏻😢

I love this song

If anyone is saying this should be banned, it's those who know the power of this song.
