Original Songs By Pharrell, Robbie Williams and More Take Center Stage in Oscar Race


Original songs by Pharrell, Robbie WIlliams and more are taking center stage in this year's Oscar race.

The season’s other major musical, “ Emilia Perez ” contains 16 original songs, two of which are being heavily lobbied: “El Mal,” the showstopping fantasy number where Rita (Zoe Saldana) zeroes in on all the corrupt officials who pretend to support the cause of justice for victims of the Mexican cartel murder; and “Mi Camino,” which Jessi (Selena Gomez) sings in a karaoke bar. “Winter Coat” from “Blitz” Actress Saoirse Ronan, as a single mom in World War II London, performs this romantic ballad by Nicholas Britell (“Succession”) and Taura Stinson (“Mudbound”). “The Idea of You” title song by Savan Kotecha, Carl Falk and Albin Nedler for the spring release about an L.A. art gallery owner (Anne Hathaway) who falls for the much younger lead singer of a British boy band (Nicholas Galitzine, who performs the romantic ballad).
