Best Bets:
I think this is one of the odd years where we have a lot of popular musicians in the fold for the Oscar. Off the top, I think that there are only two sure things: “See You Again” and “Til it Happens to You.” After Lady Gaga crushed it at the Oscars last year, and then has an amazing song in one of the years most important documentaries, it is hard to ignore her. She’s becoming Bette Midler, and this should continue that trend. “See You Again” was deeply personal, was an incredible sendoff for a well respected actor, as well as an excellent way to acknowledge the franchise. Plus, it was number 1 for 12 weeks. It was infectious and everyone (even my Grandmother) has heard this song.
