Lorde Mockingjay Single: 'Royals' Singer Set To Release New Song To Be Featured On 'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 1' On September 29; Artwork Revealed!

A new Lorde Mockingjay single is bound for release on Monday.

According to Hypable.com, the singer's new single is set to launch on September 29, 2014. It will be entitled "Yellow Flicker Beat" and will be among the songs featured on "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 1", which stars Jennifer Lawrence.

An attractive artwork was revealed by the singer on September 22 via a tweet. The cover art will come with the Lorde Mockingjay single, featuring "LORDE" in bold gold letters at the center, together with the golden Mockingjay symbol just under it. Above her name, the inscription "From The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part I" appeared. The song title, "Yellow Flicker Beat" can read at the bottommost part. The art featured an intricate charcoal background.

Earlier in September 2014, Lorde also introduced the first lyric from the single. It read, "I'm a princess cut from marble, smoother than a storm." One reader believed that the line might be referring to the character Johanna from the novel. In a promotional material for the upcoming movie, Johanna is featured in white marble together with two other key characters.

In a report by Hollywood Life, the film promoters continue to build momentum towards the worldwide release of the film, scheduled on November 21, 2014. Earlier in July, Lionsgate announced that the Lorde Mockingjay single will be included in the official album. Lorde previously contributed to the soundtrack of the first installment of The Hunger Games. More songs from the soundtrack are expected to be presented on September 29.

Francis Lawrence, the film director, particularly shared his excitement about Lorde's ability to capture the essence of Mockingjay. Lorde said about contributing to movie soundtracks, "Curating the soundtrack for such a hotly-anticipated film was a challenge but I jumped at the chance... I think the soundtrack is definitely going to surprise people."
