Jabberjays.net – A Hunger Games Fansite Get the Latest Mockingjay Movie News
Earlier this week, Republic Records released the official audio for Dead Air by CHVRCHES and it was hard to deny that it was a catchy song (my kids love it!), but had a very 1980s flair to it and made all us young-adults-at-heart wonder, what would have happened if The Hunger Games: Mockingjay had been released in the 1980s? As a result, our staff worked through our personal lists of greatest 80s hits to curate a Mockingjay Part 1 soundtrack just for you.
