But you cant stop nothing
If you got no control
Of the thoughts in your mind
That you kept in, you know
You dont know nothing
But you dont need to know
The wisdoms in the trees
Not the glass windows
You cant stop wishing
If you dont let go
But things that you find
And you lose, and you knowI need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown

I totally agree.
I never would have thought of Jack Johnson and the Hunger Games in the same sentence… but that’s kinda cool! His voice is sort of impassive, or it has a go-with-the-flow feel. Since everything in Katniss’s life seems to be falling apart (and being controled by the Capitol) she has to keep smiling when inside she justs wants to, well, breakdown.
Nice

i think its AMAZING!!! im kinda sleep-deprived-slap-happy right now but ive gotta try to relay my thoghts cuz its well..amazing!! I think all tributes can relate to this song cuz this is how they all felt at least once, no matter how tough they appear to be. They want to break down and just stop thinking about the games and how they will kill the next person. they keep wishing that they would be able to stay alive to hear the next roar of the anthem.
I really hope i made sence cuz i dont want to confuse people!!
o and im sorry that i say “Cuz” alot!!

imagine the movie: Katniss has just borded the train, watching everybody from the capitol wave and smile. She is looking out the window, having flashbacks of home, the boy with the bread, her future competition, and then (if it made sense enough, which it doesn’t) she wakes up from the terrible nightmares of what lays ahead…. and this song would be in the background. Great choice!

COOL. I would have never thought of a Jack Johnson song having anything to do with the hunger games but it totally works. I like the train part since it’s the train that brings them to the games. This immovable force that the tributes have no control over which could metaphorically represent how the government forces them to go to the game. And it would be great if the train, or the corrupt government would just break down. Nice one.
