The 80s are BANGER after BANGER
Pretty much every song from 1980-1988 made Billboard's top 5
Yeah
Some classic, great songs that will be remembered forever. And some duds.
Some MAJOR duds and a handful of masterpieces.
To my ears the boredom sets in from the year 2000 on……till present.
Fred Astaire singing "The Way You Look Tonight" gives me goosebumps. Many of his songs were written with him in mind.
It depends on your age of course but go back to the songs in the thirties and forties and listen to the lyrics. Those songs often competed with other great songs. They were the golden years. Way before my time but I guess I like what I like.
All Amazing till it gets to the 2000's and then more misses than hits for me...
Yeah. Not every one, but a definite drop in the quality.
Best chance of winning: write a song for Bond or Disney movie
Skyfall was the first Bond's song to win ever
@@alvyandana Yeah, beating out probably more recognized songs like Goldfinger, Live and Let Die and A View To A Kill. Live and Let Die was nominated but I think what hurt that song winning (and A View To A Kill not even nominated) was the fact they were rock songs by rock acts, not middle of the road acts, and this was when rock acts had troubles. In fact at the time there was controversy because A View To A Kill not being nominated even though it was the only James Bond song to hit #1 and Duran Duran (who wrote it) being the most popular band in the world at that time. Instead they nominated some real clunkers, like from A Chorus Line. Reportedly someone stated they would never nominate a "punk" band. Not sure where I heard this but it did infuriate me. They are more open about what they nominate now, including hip hop (and Lose Yourself definitely deserved to win), but U2, who is the closest band to Duran Duran musically to be nominated hasn't won yet.
@@RadioLaPrincessLive and Let Die, Nobody Does It Better and For Your Eyes Only were nominated before Skyfall became the first winner in the franchise.
@@ForceMaximus84 I wonder why For Your Eyes Only was nominated but not A View To A Kill, which is so much better.
@@RadioLaPrincess I don’t know. Probably because For Your Eyes Only was more popular as a movie than A View to a Kill was (and still is).
I wish the little posters were readable, to show what movies the songs were from.AND I wish my eyes weren't leaking.😭
In 1936 it never occurred to them that one day the song "It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp" would take the statue.
Some nearly forgotten, some never to be forgotten.
Oh Gigi, Have I been standing up too close or back too far? ❤
Those particular lyrics knock me right out of my socks each and every time!
Thank You, Ever So much Misters Lerner and Loewe.
For all the beautiful music you’ve left us with!
My favorite movie!
The Oscars sure love low energy ballads, don't they?
And Disney songs!
Nothing wrong with that
I cried through this collection.
The odd thing is some of these ballads weren't even hits and beat out bigger or better well known songs.
Especially in the 80s.
70's and 80's the best!!
In 1967, Rex Harrison sang "Talk to the Animals". The next year, his son Noel sang "The Windmills of Your Mind".
Lo que no puedo creer que peliculas como Rocky, Saturday night fever y Midnight Express no hayan ganado oscars con sus temas musicales
I wish I could go back to the 50's and start all over. Great times until 2004 and things started falling apart in the world.
Some would say before then like after 9/11 in 2001. Pretty much the 20th century just sucks.
I love these best original songs!
You are slapping every Oscar winning song in the face with your cheap ten second versions. Make up a playlist with all those great songs on it, from 1928-1929 to the present. I'd wait for that playlist to come out, surely.
I actually made such a playlist a few years ago, although I haven't kept it up-to-date with the most recent ones or replacing any that are no longer on UA-cam.
80s and 90s the best!
The 80s wins the battle for Best Original Song Decade.
Yes
Naatu Naatu and Jai Ho are 2 of my favorite songs. Nearly every song from1934 into the 60s and some until 2024 are still great.
It's because you're an Indian
@@bayuanggoro348 Sorry I am Irish who grew up around Indian people for most of my life.
@@bayuanggoro348 THANK YOU for the compliment !!!!
However I am an Irishman who grew up in an Indian neighborhood.
so u just like Pakistani Pakistan Pakistani Bangladeshi songs?
Tks for the list!!! 🌷🌷
Great video! 😊
🎉 musical greetings from coastal Mississippi. Very good countdown. Thanks for the research. Been watching the Oscars since 1972😂
Madonna ❤❤❤❤❤
gotta love how most of the Oscar songs take themselves seriously and then there's AM I A MAN OR A MUPPET
I didn't realize Billy Eyelash won twice. That's amazing, good for her! 🎉
She is now the youngest person ever to have won 2 Oscars (ages 20 and 22). The second youngest is her brother Finneas (ages 24 and 26).
Billie Eilish
@@su-rv2uq EYELASH 🙄😄
@@claylexander6171Eilish
@@jesseowenvillamor6348 EYELASH!
We may never love like this again from The Towering Inferno.
Loved it when watching the movie,thought it was going to be a gigantic hit.Never heard it again!!!!!!
Whatever happened?
Absolutely agree ❤
TY for this!!
Billie is sooo deserved!
Thank you for this :)
I wish 9 to 5 had won for Best Original Song of 1980,
I See You by Leona Lewis should’ve been nominated and win of 2009
Song of the Heart by Prince ( Happy Feet) should’ve been nominated and won of 2006
Lady Gaga of 2015
I’m Just Ken (Ryan Gosling) - Mark Ronson of 2023

The biggest atrocity was Barbara Streisand's Evergreen winning over Gonna Fly Now (The Theme to Rocky).
Musicals lost their Oscar appeal in recent years except for a few beautiful ones. It used to be a great musical competed against another even greater musical. I hope that time revives itself in film. Theater has not lost that greatness in music ... another reason to see a play.
Most of the Favourite Oscar's Best Original Songs are from Disney.
Out of 90 years only 12 were from Disney/Pixar, although they were some of the best of the best songs!
Some have REEL staying power.
Most do not.
What!? "Man or Muppet" will live on forever!
@donbrown1284 Love that song! And Sheldon being the human version of Walter is PERFECT!
I can't believe the sound went out on the video during "My Heart Will Go On".
Brilliant ❤
Reviewing the also-rans from the past, some years were just tougher than others when choosing a single song. 1944, for example, with "Swinging On a Star" as the winner and also-rans including "The Trolley Song" and "Long Ago and Far Away." Or how about 1941, with "The Last Time I Saw Paris" beating "Blues In the Night," "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy," and "Chattanooga Choo Choo"? 1937's nod to "Sweet Leilani" still baffles me - it beat "That Old Feeling" and "They Can't Take That Away From Me."
On another note, my community chorus performed choral versions of two of the winners. We loved "Jai Ho" and were less than enthusiastic about "Skyfall."
Sweet Leilani got nominated instead of Someday My Prince will Come from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
I Just Called to Say I Love You beats out Footloose and Ghostbusters for Best Original Song back in the 80s.
I like "Swinging on a Star", but I love "Long Ago and Far Away". Oh well.
I LOVED IT! I JUST WISH YOU LET THE LAST 2 decades go a couple seconds longer
1984-1987
4 wonderful songs in-a-row! 💚😍
Back when the Oscar didn't allow the original singers to perform during the award ceremony, the world missed out on watching Karen Carpenter sing one of the finest love songs ever put on film.
"Love, look at the two of us
Strangers in many ways
We've got a lifetime to share
So much to say
And as we go from day to day
I'll feel you close to me
But time alone will tell."🥲
Don't care for the songs in this century!!...
Good selection, but the worst were the ones from 2000 and on.
Wonderful! The clips are well-chosen, and just long enough to give you a good idea of the whole song. (Personal favorite here: the clip of Jackie Gleason singing "Call me irresponsible,' taken from the film; I usually see/hear it performed by a trained vocalist.) I'm thinking that it might by like opening Pandora's box - also take way too long - to list what the competition was for the years covered. Anyway, thanks so much for posting this.
MARVELOUS MUSICS ❤❤❤!!!
80’s the best
Great STUFF! 😂
80s and 90s were amazing, only song I truly loved since 2000 is Loose Yourself. The rest since then is so low energy (not necessarily bad, but not always great)
i wouldn't say "let it go" is low-energy..
Thanks for the *Memory
Surprisingly no The Sound of Music 😢
Sound of Music was based on an existing musical, so it wouldn't be eligible for this category.
From the slow and calmness of Billie Eilish to NAATU NAATU NAATU NAATU and then back to Billie Eilish.
Lady gaga, Taron Egerton (c'est lui qui chante dans le film) , Phill Collins, Elton John, Irène Cara, la reine des neiges.
I just realized that most of the clips had the singers sing the name of the song in the song :0
The Best Original Sing winner has come from the Best Picture winner only 5 times so far. These are "Swinging on a Star" from "Going My Way", "Gigi" from "Gigi", "My Heart Will Go On" from "Titanic" and the songs from the 3rd "Lord of the Rings" film and "Slumdog Millionaire".
There have also been at least 4 Best Picture winners that featured a song the won Best Original Song when used in an earlier movie:
"Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head" - "Forrest Gump"
"Call Me Irresponsible" - "American Beauty"
"You'll Never Know" - "The Shape of Water"
"White Christmas" - "Nomadland"
2020s is a going to be a spectacular era
Música, propriamente dita, só começou a ganhar a partir dos anos 70.
Animações da Disney dominaram os anos 90.
Música popular só ganhou até 2015.
In my opinion, I don’t want to miss a thing should’ve won the Oscar over when you believe
In my opinion it was either When You Believe or The Prayer.
When You Believe's legacy speaks for itself.
The Prayer for me
In spite of being a HUGE Whitney fan, I have to agree!
Good song, but I thought that Prince of Egypt song was better. Also, songs from Mulan were better than I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing which was released the same year, but they weren’t even nominated. I think Dianne Warren should have won for Till it Happens to You.
Very cool!
2008 jai hoo has emotion❤
800th like congrats bro
Loved seeing the hairdos from way back.
In the 90s Disney owned the music categories at the Oscars deservedly so mainly thanks to Alan Menken
The 80s ROCKS!
Madonna, Elton and Billie Eilish are 2 times winner
Elton John won for the wrong Lion King song. He should have won for The Circle of Life instead of Can You Feel the Love Tonight.
Also Maureen McGovern
Ironic that one of the most memorable and best performed songs of the movies, 1977's New York, New York, not only did not win...it wasn't even nominated!
I was happy that "I'm Gonna Love Me Again" won (although "Into The Unknown" is a good song too), because I wanted it for Bernie Taupin, because Elton had already won (Tim Rice was the lyricist). I was disappointed that Taron Egerton wasn't nominated for playing Elton because I thought he was very good. Funnily enough, when my youngest nephew heard "I'm Still Standing" (just Elton at the piano), he started clapping his little hands together. I'd never seen him react like that to any music.
Shallow is one of the best!
6:57 If i Didn’t Have You
I'm glad a song from mary poppins won but it should have gone to either feed the birds or lets go fly a kite
I love this list, but why so short pieces??
Wait! The Song of the South got an Oscar
YIKES😳
Well… it is a good song tbh
@@bnicethegaynerd6025 and the song is a classic.
i still don't understand how the only James Bond songs to win are more recent. In fact most of the earlier ones weren't even nominated except Live and Let Die. A View To A Kill is the only theme to reach #1 on the US charts but I remember at the time someone saying (or someone told me this) they would never nominate a "punk" band (same reason why Don't You Forget About Me from the Breakfast Club wasn't nominated either but they nominate flops like a song from A Chorus Line).
"Live And Let Die" is one of my favourite Bond songs and the best song Paul McCartney has ever written. You know it's good when the person who wrote it says it didn't take long.
idk why this moment has stuck in my mind but i distinctly remember when three 6 mafia won for it's hard out here for a pimp. also i loved that song and had it on my mp3 player listening to it at school. also also taraji p. henson performed it at the oscars which was my introduction to her.
The Oscar’s for a movie or song are always given the year after it s made.
Still think against all odds should've won best song
Bob Dylan was right: Things Have Changed over the years.
Oh another atrocity is Barbara Streisand's The Way We Were winning over Paul McCartney's Live And Let Die and You Light Up My Life winning over Carly Simon's Nobody Does It Better.
Cool
The Bare Necessities should have won over the crappy song known as Talk to the Animals.
THANK YOU! So true! Rex Harrison was just talking in pitch, but 'he's Rex Harrison so...'
That's Hollywood Golden Child mentality
Any other Disney songs that should’ve won over Best Original Song winners?
Someday My Prince will Come from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs should have won over Sweet Leilani. Also, The Circle of Life should have won over Can You Feel the Love Tonight from the same movie.
1:40 Jane Russell ali ❤️
What happened in My Heart Will Go On 😢
Copyright
Who are the singers?
I'm noticing a theme for the 90s. Disney/animation and Tim Rice. Not a complaint but just saying. Also, how on earth was Skyfall the first Bond theme to get the Oscar???
I know, right? I would have nominated Goldfinger, Live and Let Die and A View To A Kill, and possibly For Your Eyes Only and the Spy Who Loved Me, maybe others. Outside of Live And Let Die, none of the others were nominated, although A View To A Kill got nominated at the Golden Globes. This is the only theme to hit #1 on the pop charts and also hit on the rock charts as well.
@@RadioLaPrincess I'm sure plenty would have been nominated, but its surprising that this was the first one. Bond Themes are a staple of the series and of movies in general.
Still think I'm Only Ken should have won LOL But, Last Dance, Flashdance, Fame, Lift Us Up to Where We Belong, Philadelphia and Lose Yourself, are up there as my favorites.
Disney killed it in the 90's! Almost every song was from a Disney movie!
i may be biased, but i think the '90s were Disney's prime
Interesting.... after the year 2000 the songs gradually turn to crap.
Just like everything else
14 for Disney/Pixar/Muppets….unless I miscalculated!
Congrats to Billie and Finneas on winning their 2nd Oscars (even though “WWIMF?” was way too sad & depressing for me to hear, that doesn’t mean it’s bad. It’s a good song about knowing who you are. That’s one reason why I stopped watching Barbie even though it was a fantastic film). I like a live version of that song better than that depressing studio version.
They picked the wrong song from Barbie.
5:28 mean green Mother :"v
Et Audrey Hepburn et Bruce Springsteen.
80s baby amazing
The ones from 1980-2002 were awesome…a few later ones were decent too…a few surprises too…❤
"Writing on the Wall" but not "Goldfinger" or "Thunderball"? The Academy is stupid!
Lots of Disney
Only 20 good songs. The rest?? Not worth even mentioning.
After 2000 the songs went really downhill...I think I can do better..
Neil Young should have won in 1993.
