I doubt it will, but I really hope ‘Identical’ from On the Rocks gets a nomination. It’s such a good song and my favorite of the year (with ‘Hear my Voice’ from Trial of the Chicago 7 a close second).

My username is an acronym of “Quiet On Set! Lights, Camera, Action.”

Judas and the Black Messiah has an original song called “Fight For You” which is written and performed by H.E.R.

She has two songs in the race?
Good for her (no pun intended)

Speak Now, Fight for You and Hear My Voice are definitely three of the most cliché Oscar nominee song titles ever. It would be so funny if all three were nominated.

FYC:

Lead Actor: Mads Mikkelsen (Another Round)

Supporting Actress: Maria Bakalova (Borat Subsequent Moviefilm)

Supporting Actor: Paul Raci (Sound of Metal)

Which is exactly why we need following to happen

• Academy Award nominee “Boss Bitch”
• Academy Award nominee Ja Ja Ding Dong “Husavik”
• Academy Award nominee “Wuhan Flu”

This on the other hand would be the funniest thing in this category ever. It would surely beat “Academy-Award-winning Man or Muppet”.

“Loyal Brave True” just went top ten on Adult Contemporary Radio this week, it’s Aguilera’s first top ten in this format since “Say Something” in late 2013.

Think Disney will put all of their eggs in the Onward/Brandi basket wouldn’t be shocked if LBT starts showing at more critics and guild groups.

It’s just the same old same old, but it will probably win
Every day I find a scenario where Leslie take two oscars home more plausible

I will agree it’s not a very original number, but I still thought it’s great.

Granted, I’m hopelessly in love with Leslie Odom Jr, so there could be a level of bias going on here.

I think Boss Bitch is dead since Warner will prioritize campaign for Wonder Woman and rumour has it that BOO hasn’t even been made a FYC yet
