Because I’m still forming my line-ups, and I want to see it there are any hopefuls I’ve missed. Also, we can use this as an eventual AMARA’s FYC. Let me see them!

yeah I was gonna post something similar because I'm pretty lost this year as to what's out there. I usually use the Oscar longlist as a reference point so I'm flying blind with my songs. even so, I've found some gems (mostly from the shortlist  ). Daily Battles of course, and Stand Up is really beautiful and stirring. Glasgow obviously, and I really like Speechless (which somehow worked better when I watched the movie) and Beautiful Ghosts too. some lesser-sung picks: A Glass of Soju, Home to You (Aeronauts) and Control (Her Smell) are decent too. |

I probably won’t get Portrait until February (IF I get it. AMC’s showing trailers for movies they never run, again).

I don't do this category because I'm far too lazy to track down which songs from movies are original or not but this is one year in which I can easily imagine a great lineup:
1. 'Show Yourself', Frozen II
2. 'Daily Battles', Motherless Brooklyn
3. 'Into the Unknown', Frozen II
4. 'Beautiful Ghosts', Cats
5. 'Glasgow', Wild Rose

Yeah, “Beautiful Ghosts” *is* so much better than I initially gave it credit for. Hearing it again (and genuinely feeling the lyrics), I actually got a little teary eyed.
And what else? I’m extra mad at the Academy for subbing it and “Glasgow”. All so Diane Warren can get nominated for writing the same song three years in a row.

I think all the ones from Dragged are original, but I'm open to correction. Does anyone actually have / know where to find that list of qualifying songs?
1 "The Hide and Seek Song" from Ready or Not
2 "Gilded Life of the Rich Man" from Dragged Across Concrete
3 "Don't Close the Drive In" from Dragged Across Concrete
4 "Glasgow" from Wild Rose
5 "My Magic Tricks" from Dragged Across Concrete
