Here’s a really sweet song written and performed by @SamiGreenwood called ‘As the World Catches Fire’. The video quality isn’t the greatest, but it’s still a very pretty song! What do you all think? I think T-Bone should line her up for the next companion album! ;)

    My gosh that was so good. I am amazed by your talent Sami! Sounded like a real soundtrack song and your lyrics were deep and meaningful. I would love for this to be in CF!

    Someone needs to show that to Taylor Swift, she knows what it’s like to be a young girl trying to make it, maybe she would help her!

    Amazing! She’s so talented, I love her voice! And the sound of the song is so different from anything out there… amazing!

    Its a great song for sure.But I feel that movie soundtrack songs really have nothing to do with the movie.Like the songs from the hunger games album have nothing to do with it.The songs sound good with the woodsy thing but catching fire is more like the capitol.great and all but not fit for the soundtrack

    i like it a lot! she should try to get it on the soundtrack!

    This was great! Wish it was on iTunes!

    hi again :) haha someone RTd on twitter so i thought id see what people are saying :3
    @Mandii omigosh thank you so so much! its not everyday a stranger tells me im pretty so i really like that :3
    @sydney i see where your coming from but i think the beauty of this song is that although it was inspired by catching fire, its not limited to only catching fire. i pay a great amount of attention to the words i choose to use and this entire thing is really an extended metaphor, i wasnt strictly referring to catching fire but to any situation where two people who most people believe wouldnt last fight the odds and try to last together anyway… you get what im trying to say?
    and to everyone who says they would buy this itunes, trust me, i really wish you could cuz this is definitely what i want to be doing with my life :3
    so thanks everyone! again :3

    Seriously, right now I want to record this song, and take it right to the director of ‘Catching Fire’ and force him to accept it. Sami, you got to find a way to get this song out into the world, at least onto ITunes. Cause I’m sure, once the creators of ‘Catching Fire’ hear this song, they will want it.
    Try to get them to hear it.
    When ‘Catching Fire’ comes out, I want to hear your song during the movie. Okay? You are extremely talented. Good luck.

    I really love listening to this song. Im not sure but I think I’ve hit the replay button over a dozen or so times. Is this up on youtube? bc if it is i will go there and hwlp you rank up those views. if you get enough im sure Lionsgate will take notice.




  31.  

    @jessica yea this is a share from the youtube video so i think by watching this it adds to the views on the youtube video
    and thank you everyone! i love seeing just how much everyone believes in this song :3 im currently working on getting the money to record my stuff so that *drum roll* YOU COULD BUY IT ON iTUNES!!! yay :3 but it might take a while and i need like donations and stuff, ill explain in a youtube video soon

    All I have to say is wow

    All I have to say is wow
    She’s great

    That was so good. You know how Taylor Swift did Safe and Sound, which wasn’t specifically made for The Hunger Games but it fit the bill? That song and your voice is perfect for the Catching Fire soundtrack. I don’t know where you live but I know in Michigan, there aren’t many opportunities so make sure you keep your eye out and take an opportunity. That’s what I did and now I am taking Honors Geometry and Honors English in the 8th grade. About 2 feet shorter than everyone else though:).

    Oh, and my band teacher always says that you shouldn’t cross your legs like that in order to get maximum breath. Crossing ankles is fine though. Just a suggestion, might not even be a problem for you.
