Her own track 'Yellow Flicker Beat' is included in the collection, and Lorde admits it was her attempt at "getting inside" lead character Katniss Everdeen's mind.

"It's my first offering from what I hope will be a soundtrack you love. It's my attempt at getting inside her head, Katniss'." she wrote on Tumblr.

She added: "We are almost at the end, the point where this soundtrack gets taken away from me and becomes something real.

"I'm reminded of this day last year, when [debut album] 'Pure Heroine' came out in this country. The feeling of something very solitary that I had worked on spinning around and around further away from me, becoming someone else's, everyone's."
