EJAE co-wrote “Golden” from KPop Demon Hunters.
Diane Warren secured her usual position on the shortlist for best original song with “Dear Me” from the aptly-titled documentary about her career, Diane Warren: Relentless. This keeps her hopes alive of becoming the first songwriter in Oscar history to land nine consecutive nominations in that category. She is currently tied with the late Sammy Cahn with eight consecutive nominations each.
Sara Bareilles, Brandi Carlile, Andrea Gibson are shortlisted for co-writing “Salt Then Sour Then Sweet” from Come See Me in the Good Light. The film is also shortlisted for documentary feature film, which suggests broad support. Bareilles and Carlile executive-produced the documentary about Gibson and her wife dealing with Gibson’s experience with ovarian cancer. Gibson, who died of the disease in July, would be the first person to be posthumously nominated for best original song since Howard Ashman, who received four nods (including one win) in the two years following his 1991 death.
Two songs on the shortlist – “Golden” from KPop Demon Hunters “and “Dying To Live” from Billy Idol Should Be Dead — are each the work of five co-writers. The academy will award no more than four Oscars in this category. Should either of those songs win the songwriters must share a single statuette.
Here are the 15 songs that are on the shortlist for best original song at the 98th annual Academy Awards. Members of the music branch culled this shortlist from a master list of 65 eligible songs. They will vote again to determine the five nominees, which will be announced on Thursday, Jan. 22. The full membership of the Academy will vote to determine the winner, which will be announced when the 98th Oscars are presented at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood on Sunday, March 15.
