My version of Rue's Lullaby from The Hunger Games

[SexinessIsSexy]

This is the best I've heard so far. It's lyrics are so warm, but the way it's sang and the way the piano is played is rather dark. Which is perfect in my opinion, because this is how I would imagine Katniss actually singing it, trying to be warm in her lyrics... but her being so sad that the rest of it would sound a little bit dark...

[cocoa020]

I know it's supposed to be warm and all, but let's get serious. Katniss was devastated, she probably wasn't warm and bubbly when she sang it. She was crying....it's dark. Now, can I get a download link?

[selenafanforever1000]

Its not supposed to be creepy you know its supposed to make you feel safe and warm like it says in the lyrics

[AbigailWestly]

I am sorry your cat was put to sleep, it will live on in our memories. I think you should check out the version of this song by Christina Gifford at cgifford103

[SavyReyVA]

beautiful. i've never read hunger games, but this song is gorgeous. beautifully done. :)

[ichi030]

Do you have a music sheet made out for this song? Your version is very beautiful and I would love to play it.

[klutchmusic]

Awesome! Check out this version of Rue's Lullaby that I found, Search "Rue's Lullaby Matt Hay" It's pretty Legit too.

[inceptious]

This is by far my most favourite rendition of the Rue's lullaby. Your voice is so beautifully soothing, and the piano accompaniment really added to the haunting atmosphere. I also loved how it's in triple meter. You should sing the Hanging Tree!

[iloveballet1000]

i like this version the best :D they should use this for the movie :P

[verduna2]

It's close to what I've imagined, but not exactly...

It's better than what I've heard so far, that one version that got many covers really sucks in my opinion.

[Skyewinge]

this is gorgeous- it sounds exactly like a lullaby, but a darker one. Thank you for sharing this! <3

[GMHS2015RoCkS]

amazing!!!

[folllowyourdreams]

Nooo way u sang this ur voice is soo beautiful

[FriendRandomness]

Arrrrgggryrggyhrejroroyrtakigf­rcbhhpfh!!!!!!! Translation: THIS WAS AWESOME AND SLIGHTLY CREEPY. Just the feel. But I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'

[toadmonkey01]

turn it up all up the way, close my eyes,and relax.

this is by far my fav song, ever.

[ABookwormAndProud]

It sounds almost vaguely Russian, at least ot me. I love it so much. Bravo!

[XxNerdxAngelxX]

I love it! I would download this if I could and listen to it everyday, because your voice is beautiful.

[DrippingSmiles]

I LOVE IT!! *hits replay button 5 more times*

It is hauntingly beautiful. This is like those Japanese lullaby's that i listen too but better, and in englidh! XD

[vennessa1998]

beautiful doesn't begin to cover it...

definitely my favorite version

[LadyAngela123]

@vennessa1998 thank you so much!! truly :) it makes me so happy that you like it.

[ban1]

Wow, I hate that I never found this after I finished the first book! I can honestly say out of all the version I've heard of people singing this lullaby, yours is by far my favourite :) Amazing, soothing, dark and beautiful, your voice is amazing and I hope when the hunger games movie comes out, they can capture the song as brilliantly as you have :D

[LadyAngela123]

@ban1 thank you! everything you described is exactly what I was going for :) I cant wait to hear what the movie does?

[brigrove]

beautiful

[LadyAngela123]

@brigrove thank you :)

[Sally122333]

This is like amazing. It's so darkly beautiful. I applaud you for the most original I've seen so far. ><

[LadyAngela123]

@Sally122333 yay! most original :) what a compliment! thank you!

[elizabethmalone17]

i think this is great and better than the main version, but check out mine at /watch?v=G5sjCWL4_Ag

[diamondlighting101]

Sounds a little scary to be a lullaby but this is nice

[LadyAngela123]

@diamondlighting101 haha yea its a little dark but i thought the time they lived in was pretty dark so i wanted to to create something dark yet soothing. Still, thank you form commenting. Im glad you still enjoyed it. :)

[BlackUmbrella19]

It's really beautiful :)

[melthedancer98]

WHERE CAN YOU GET THAT NECKLACE!

[webkinzproductionz22]

Absolutely amazing. Btw,did you make up a verse?

[brokencoryphee]

This is one of the best songs ive heard for the words. I heard them sounding just like this song is. Great great great job! ^^

[TsukiLovesCiel]

Très Bien :))LOVE IT ...

[CrazyNinjaCourtney13]

That was amazingly unreal yet it was absolutely exactly how I imagined it! It was breathtaking I loved it. Rest in peace Rue. This is the place where I Love You -3

[Captntiger]

Oh my gosh this is beautiful!

[TwilightLugia3532]

It sounds dark but like a lullaby, like it's supposed to. It's still so very lovely and your voice, I swear it just makes it that much more beautiful. Thank you for sharing it with us.

[LadyAngela123]

@TwilightLugia3532 what a lovely compliment. Thank you. Im glad you enjoy it.

[TheBlondeOstrichGal]

Sheet music for the piano please? I love it so much!

[LadyAngela123]

@TheBlondeOstrichGal Let me see what I can do :) Thank you for commenting. Im so glad you like it!!

[cranialjukebox]

This is perfect.

[LadyAngela123]

@cranialjukebox Thank you!! :)

[lunawolf98]

@LadyAngela123 hey do u think i could download it? I would love to have it on my ipod! <3

[LadyAngela123]

@cranialjukebox Thank you!!!

[MonakoSM]

Best version of the song I've heard yet.

[AdenaKatsa]

YOU HAVE AN AMAZING VOICE! this made me want to curl up in a bed of grass and fall asleep!

[LadyAngela123]

@AdenaKatsa Thank you:) It makes me want to do the same thing ;)

[LadyAngela123]

@AdenaKatsa Thank you so much! It makes me want to do the same thing ;)

[Daghain66]

OMG this is incredible! Thanks for sharing!



[LadyAngela123]

@Daghain66 thank you for commenting. Im glad you enjoyed it ;)

[LadyAngela123]

@Daghain66 Thank you so much!! Thank you for commenting! It makes me happy you enjoy it.

[RainiesCorner]

The way the song is sung sounds exactly like anistasias once upon a memory

[LadyAngela123]

@RainiesCorner OMG I love that song! It does have that vibe huh? Thank you for listening and commenting. :)

[22xxCaitlinxx]

This is so good, how you sing it, it keeps the message of the song, like pirates of the carribean and the hoist the colours song. I love it!

[LadyAngela123]

@22xxCaitlinxx Thank you! I wanted to keep it simple since its a lullaby. :) Im so glad you like it!

[cloudrider123]

You should do the Hanging Tree. I love this video. It's the only one I like!

[LadyAngela123]

@cloudrider123 wow! thank you! i feel honored since there are so many :) Yes I plan on doing the Hanging Tree. I guess I should get on that haha.

[MrMaximumNRG]

I love this version....just Katniss has a much more pure innocent sweet voice....

[yunilein]

this touched my heart <3

[TheMc2themax]

sssoooo beautiful  its awesome

[mahasalimable]

This hauntingly beautiful! Your voice really remains with me!

[lirialgrace]

Wow, this is a perfect melody to what I imagined, poignant enough to both sing a small child to sleep, or to sing a broken girl to death. Definitely better than any of the other versions I heard on youtube, which were either too sad or too sweet. This is a perfect balance. :)

[Lololuvr1]

This is amazing ... its a little more depressing than i would've thought the song to be, but its beautiful anyway and I think you did a great job!!

[YYballerina]

Stunning!

[ReeReextraordinary]

Wow! You're voice sounds so different. This is beautiful. I really hope you get this in the hands of T-Bone Burnett who's the executive music producer of THE HUNGER GAMES. Good luck!

[KHnaruto29]

this is the best thing ive ever heard! the best version by far on youtube. your voice is so beautiful and the piano fits the rhythm amazingly. favorited it you should really do "The Hanging Tree", the other song from the hunger games trilogy. you'd make it even more amazing then it already was.

[ShiverSuccubus]

you're voice fits this exactly! You have a nice soft and calming voice, thanks for posting

[LadyAngela123]

@ShiverSuccubus thank you for commenting :) Im so glad you enjoyed it!

[KiokoTama]

This could be in a Tim burton movie, beautifully haunting.

[LadyAngela123]

@KiokoTama wow thank you! what a beautiful compliment :)

[perhapscrazy]

we all know that the 1 person that gave this video a thums down is presedent Snow

[LadyAngela123]

@perhapscrazy haha

[lovesfireflight]

best version yet!!!! =D 

[LadyAngela123]

@lovesfireflight that means so much. thank you :)

[phantomofthefestival]

you are a phenomenal singer o:

[LadyAngela123]

@phantomofthefestival what a phenomenal compliment. Thank you :)

[iloveyou1997jd]

where did u get that braclet necklace thingy

[LadyAngela123]

@iloveyou1997jd I actually found it on google under pics of hunger games. I dont actually have the bracelet :(

[iloveyou1997jd]

@LadyAngela123 oh ok ty :)

[tristainvestri]

Wow, one the best so far! Shared and faved! XD

[LadyAngela123]

@tristainvestri thank you so much for the love and support :)

[ASDAPOI]

So beautiful, this gave me goosebumps...

It also kinda reminds me of the intro to Panic! at the Disco's 'Ballad of the Mona Lisa'

[LadyAngela123]

@ASDAPOI I'm glad you like it! :) Thank you so much!!

[stephieann30vb]

beautiful

[LadyAngela123]

@stephieann30vb thank you :)

[stephieann30vb]

All you can say is beautiful



[ARTA4]

This creeped me out a little it was just so perfect. Lovely =)

[LadyAngela123]

@ARTA4 haha thank you :)

[LadyAngela123]

@ARTA4 Haha, I'm so glad you liked it. Thank you. :)

[humphrke]

Omfg I'm cryng

[LadyAngela123]

@humphrke I was crying when I wrote it. So we have something in common. haha. I hope they were good tears :) thank you for commenting.

[humphrke]

@LadyAngela123 It kinda reminds me of Once Upon A December from Anastasia :3

[sakurastar55]

that is exactly the way i thought it shoulda been sung! i thought the way they did it origonally was way to rushed it was like someone took this and cliced fastfoward

[LadyAngela123]

@sakurastar55 thank you :) I was really going for a lullaby you know. and if you think about lullaby's they are usually slow since they are used to put babies to sleep. I'm glad you liked it. Thanks again:)

[TheBaconsisters]

can you buy that necklace that is your picture? I really like it.

[LadyAngela123]

@TheBaconsisters I am sorry it took so long to reply. Not intentional. You know I am not sure. I just found when when I was googling pics of hunger games. I hope you find it or have found it at this point. OH! But check out Etsy.com I think I saw an artist on there that was making hunger games jewelry. Good luck! Let me know if you found it :)

[ninjagurl5674334]

oohh! i just love that necklace or bracelet , or whatever it is:) its pretty. and i love ur voice!! keep singing:)

[LadyAngela123]

@ninjagurl5674334 The jewelry was a pic I found online. I don't actually own it. I think its very pretty too!:) Thank you so much for the compliment. I'm really glad you enjoyed it :)

[allyrose125]

Ur voice is too old to sing katniss's song

[LadyAngela123]

@allyrose125 Haha well, I am not trying to be Katniss :) I actually sang it from a place in my voice that sounded more motherly since that is how Katniss heard it. I hope you enjoyed it anyway. Thank you so much for commenting.

[vfighterful]

@LadyAngela123 wow!!!!!!!!! it is so great r u doing more?

[ChannelHMC]

@allyrose125 wow that was really rude. She has a beautiful voice, and if you even read all the books, you would know that Katniss sang this song to her children as a nearly 40 year old woman herself...and who are you to tell anyone that they are to old to sing any song...that is a really ignorant comment.

[aquamarinep]

I love the piano. Post an instrumental version please!!!

[LadyAngela123]

@aquamarinep I'm sorry it took me so long to respond. Im still getting used to the youtube thing :) I will post one for you. Thank you for commenting and making the request. Im really glad you enjoyed the piano. Davy Nathan played and recorded it. He is a very talented musician. :)

[aquamarinep]

@LadyAngela123 Thank you!

[MsBonnieful]

Oh my good !

i´ve read the german book - so the german Lullaby, and i slap me right now for that ! The German one is not a translation of the english one, it´s an new one and i SKIPT It !!! But this one i would NEVER skip, i keep on listing. Your voice is amazing, thanks a lot

[LadyAngela123]

@MsBonnieful I am so happy to like it :D Thank you so much!

[LadyAngela123]

@MsBonnieful aww. thank you. I am so glad you like it!:) Sorry for the late response.

[MsBonnieful]

@LadyAngela123 better late then never ^^

[ROCKSTAR101YOYO]

omg so good!! where did u get the piuc of the braclet n if u have thatb where did u get it, cuz this song is seriously lke my ultimate fave song n esecially thoise lines, it brings a tear to my eye :)

[LadyAngela123]

@ROCKSTAR101YOYO I found the pic of the bracelet online somewhere. Its pretty right? haha :) I am so glad you like my version. I will be posting an instrumental soon :)

[AngelRose1880]

This seriously brought tears to my eyes. You're voice is amazing and beautiful!

[LadyAngela123]

@AngelRose1880 awww.... thank you. :)

[LadyAngela123]

@AngelRose1880  Thank you so much :)

[LadyAngela123]

@AngelRose1880 Thank you so much :)

[AnnaStarFire]

I keep on listening to this. It's so calm and sad...

[LadyAngela123]

@AnnaStarFire I'm so glad you like it. calm and sad... absolutely.

[PaintShani]

Do you have sheet music, maybe? And if you have sheet music, can I have it? I'd love to play it, but I really suck at playing-by-ear...

[LadyAngela123]

@PaintShani hey there. Im so glad you like it and would like to play it. Unfortunately I didn't make sheet music for it.

[PaintShani]

@LadyAngela123 oh... Do you have the names of the chords? I already figured out some parts of it but some parts are really difficult ;)

[BlondeStar1000]

It's supposed to be more... Not upbeat but...not this dark and depressing. I mean katniss is trying is soothe a small girl while she is dying!!!!

[BlondeStar1000]

Ok this is good but, it's supposed

[CithMusic]

This is the best version. I am truly impressed. Actually im trying to learn how to play the song. Can you send me the chords?

[MitternachtVampireRN]

I love the way you did this version! I think it should be song by a yonger person tho.... concdering shes only like 15, but nothing you can do about that... you are the age you are.

[LadyAngela123]

@MitternachtVampireRN I totally agree. However I sang it from the perspective of a mother verses Katniss since that's where she learned it. Plus it fits for the end of the series. But yes I would love to hear a younger voice on this. :)I'm glad you liked it.

[SamanthaJade101]

Amazing you are truly great at singing this song please make one of the hanging tree!!!

[LadyAngela123]

@SamanthaJade101 Thank you! I am working on it:)

[timtuttle1]

sounds good... but doesn't fit the mood of the song at all... it would fit the 'hanging tree'... but not this one...

[He0Ku]

Absolutely amazing! <3<3<3

[LadyAngela123]

@He0Ku Thank you very much. It makes me happy that you like it.

[namelykarlee]

Great job!  The melody seems like the right mood and emotion for a song that Katniss would have sung to Rue in the situation...

[LadyAngela123]

@namelykarlee Thank you. I came up with the melody in a moment I could relate to Katniss when she sang it. I'm glad to hear you think its a fit:)

[giatekla]

I think this is the best Rue's Lullaby I've heard. Good job :D

[LadyAngela123]

@giatekla thank you so much. What a beautiful compliment:) I'm glad you like it.

[yva143]

nice version. great job! :D

[LadyAngela123]

@yva143 thank you so much! :D

[yva143]

@LadyAngela123 No problem. are you going to make a version of "the hanging tree" from mockingjay?

[LadyAngela123]

@yva143 Ive been asked that a lot :D Yes I will. In time.

[EmmaWikkeHornbak]

Its really good. :) A bedtime story/song. :)

[LadyAngela123]

@EmmaWikkeHornbak Thank you:) I'm so glad you like it.

[LadyAngela123]

@EmmaWikkeHornbak Thank you:) I'm so glad you like it.

[reseam]

Love it!!! Soothing, yet sad and melancholy. Very nice!!! Please do one for "The Hanging Tree" from Mockingjay!

[LadyAngela123]

@reseam Thank you so much! :) That will be my next project:)

[cheriezree]

Awe I'm gonna have to play this at bed time for the boy's!!

[LadyAngela123]

@cheriezree I'm glad you like it. I would be honored if you played this for your boys:)
