Survive (Arena Mix | KÁRYYN Rework)

PLAY

“Survive” was born in the Memento Mori sessions with James Ford producing, and first surfaced as a bonus track on Memento Mori: Mexico City. Now KÁRYYN has reworked it with new vocals as the Arena Mix for The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping, the 29-track soundtrack out today, a week before the film opens on 20 November. Gérôme painted the original arena: the crowd turning its thumbs, the victor waiting to learn who survives.
