Lorde Releases the "Yellow Flicker Beat" Music Video & Talks About Her Inspiration

Lorde has released the new music video for "Yellow Flicker Beat" off the Mockingjay Part 1 Original Soundtrack. What do you guys think of it?

Here's what Lorde had to say about the music video on her tumblr:

This video is something i’m really proud of. There are so many beautiful shots and moments, and it’s really worth watching it a few times (in the highest possible quality ;~)) to see all the details.

when i was dreaming it up, i wasn’t thinking too hard about story or a specific narrative, more a mood; a harsh, crackling heat. yellow flicker beat is about katniss realizing that things have crossed a line, about being pushed to the edge and right over it. my character in this video, whether she’s weaving her way through a decadent ballroom, hiding out in a grimy, neon-lit motel room (her hair ever-so-slightly dishevelled), or waiting in the night for her bus to come dressed in her whitest clothes, is a shapeshifter, full of intensity and impulse, kind of like katniss. whether she’s in a small space or a cavernous one, she’s fiery.

 i don’t really know what i’m trying to explain to you here, but don’t read the video like a story, just let it take you somewhere.

Lorde to Release "Yellow Flicker Beat" Music Video Wednesday at 6:00am ET

Lorde was tweeting up a storm about the Yellow Flicker Beat music video this afternoon. She let everyone know that the video is FINALLY done and that she's going to debut it tomorrow morning at 6:00am EST, as the clocks tick over in New Zealand and she officially turns 18. She even shared some stills from the video, which looks like it has nothing to do with the movie - maybe The Capitol?? We're still hoping for some movie footage!

oh.. one more thing. we just finished the yellow flicker beat video

New Video Clip Debuts on GMA This Morning - PEETA!

A short but sweet new Mockingjay Part 1 video clip debuted on Good Morning America today. We got to see Josh Hutcherson as Peeta uttering part of one of the most poignant quotes in the book:

"When you're in the Games you only get one wish and it's very costly."

“Oh, no. It costs a lot more than your life. To murder innocent people?" says Peeta. "It costs everything you are.”
