'The Hanging Tree' Dance Remix from The Hunger Games (AUDIO)

'The Hanging Tree' featuring Jennifer Lawrence from The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 OST has been released as a dance remix.

This of course is catchy with the EDM beat -- however fans are a bit upset, calling the remix treatment "inappropriate" given the song's message.

From Hypable:

“The Hanging Tree” is not popular only because it’s catchy. It’s popular because it is performed while we watch the Districts rise up against the Capitol. It’s popular because the song inspires people to take down President Snow.

For crying out loud: According to the book, Katniss is sung the song by her father as a child, and she later realizes the song is about a dead man asking for his lover to join him beyond the grave.

This song is not popular because people are dying to get their groove on to it at Club Catniss. It’s not intended for when you’re in the car on the way to work, either.

Um, OK. I think the EDM treatment is awesome.
