(Redirected from Safe and Sound (Taylor Swift song))
'Safe & Sound' is a song by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift and alternative country duo The Civil Wars, taken from The Hunger Games: Songs from District 12 and Beyond, the official soundtrack for the 2012 film The Hunger Games. The artists co-wrote the track with its producer, T-Bone Burnett; the song was written at Burnett's house within two hours.
The song was released to the iTunes Store in the United States on December 26, 2011, and was later added to the BBC Radio 1 playlist in the United Kingdom. The song was critically lauded, with critics praising Swift's breathy vocals, the simplicity of the music, and its lyrics, with some citing it as a welcome return to form for Swift.
Background
'Safe & Sound' was written by Taylor Swift, Joy Williams, John Paul White, and T-Bone Burnett.[1] In summer 2011, Lionsgate required Burnett to record songs for The Hunger Games: Songs from District 12 and Beyond, and he subsequently corralled a range of artists, including Swift, Maroon 5, The Civil Wars, and Arcade Fire. On a fall night in 2011, Burnett and the production team, as well as Swift and The Civil Wars, came to Burnett's house in Los Angeles to write the lyrics. After two hours, the song was finished. Swift further elaborated, 'The Civil Wars had a show that night in L.A., so they raced right over to T Bone's house. There's so many things he could've done production-wise to make that song bigger sonically than it is, but I think that would have possibly been a mistake. For him to have left the song as a lullaby is brilliant.'[2]

On December 22, 2011, Swift posted a portion of the song's lyrics via her Twitter account and said that 'Something I’ve been [very] excited about for a [very] long time is going to be happening very soon.'[3] Four days later, the song was released digitally on iTunes Store.[4]
Composition
'Safe and Sound' is a departure for Swift from her previous country pop releases,[5] and is rather described as a moody folk ballad.[6][7]Rolling Stone deemed the song reminiscent of alternative country music.[2] Written in the key of G major, the track has a moderate slow tempo of 72 beats per minute. Swift's vocal range on the song spans from the low-note of G3 to the high-note of D5.[8] The song is mainly accompanied by an acoustic guitar and features The Civil Wars' 'harmony' vocals.[9] According to Swift, the theme of 'Safe & Sound' represents 'the empathy and compassion Katniss feels for Rue, Peeta, and Prim in different parts of [The Hunger Games].'[5]
Critical reception
'Safe & Sound' received mainly positive reviews from music critics. Jody Rosen from Rolling Stone gave the song four out of five stars, calling it Swift's 'prettiest ballad.'[10] In a review of The Hunger Games: Songs from District 12 and Beyond, AllMusic's Heather Phares picked it as one of the highlights on the soundtrack, calling it 'the most crucial' track.[11]Idolator praised Swift's 'breathiness that sounds more eerie than sweet',[12] while Jason Lipshutz writing for Billboard commended the 'non-Swiftian anthem that embraces the folksiness of the soundtrack' and favored the guest appearance contributed by The Civil Wars.[7] In a less favorable feedback, Darren Franich, and editor from Entertainment Weekly, was not impressed towards the track's lyrics and Swift's vocals, writing that 'there’s no sense of triumph'. He further added that 'Safe & Sound' 'sounds more like a funeral dirge than a victory chant, especially as the song continues with light percussion that sounds like soldiers marching to their doom.'[13]The Wall Street Journal's Christopher John Farley agreed, opining that the song 'has a rural feel, but doesn’t sound like a commercial country song.'[3]
At the 2012 Country Music Association Awards, 'Safe & Sound' was nominated for Musical Event of the Year.[14] It also garnered a CMT Music Award nomination for Collaborative of the Year in that year.[15] The song was nominated for Best Original Song at the 70th Golden Globe Awards in 2013, but lost to Adele's 'Skyfall'.[16] At the 2013 Grammy Awards, 'Safe & Sound' received a nomination for Best Country Duo/Group Performance, but lost to 'Pontoon' by Little Big Town, and won the Best Song Written for Visual Media.[17]

Live performances
During the Australian leg of the Speak Now World Tour, Swift added 'Safe & Sound' to the tour's setlist.[36] Swift performed the track while sitting on a couch onstage, wearing a 'sparkling, floor-length gown', which, according to Brittany Cooper of Taste of Country, was slightly reminiscent of Belle from Disney's Beauty and the Beast (1991). Cooper provided a positive feedback to the performance, writing that '[Swift] took the song with a whimsical air and gave it all the mystique you would expect from the haunting ballad.'[37]
