I'm pretty sure a bunch of voters got together after a bunch of drinks and said "let's get everyone we know to nominate this as a joke and watch the reaction". Uh, it was actually "Blame Canada".

CoolioD1 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) someone on indiewire made a spotify playlist of 70 of the eligible songs. most of them are sucky ballads but honestly this tune from Criminal, of all things, is kinda awesome. no nominations here, just wanted to point it out.

Ezen Baklattan Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Imagine if The Great Beyond somehow got nominated and they'd try to perform that in front of 30 million viewers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blankments Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 “Audition (The Fools Who Dream),” La La Land “Can’t Stop the Feeling,” Trolls “City of Stars,” La La Land “Drive It Like You Stole It,” Sing Street “How Far I’ll Go,” Moana 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidey Freak Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Bummed that We Know the Way got left out even if expected. The live performance would have been excellent. Gosling and Stone performances do have potential to be memorable in a different way though. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLAM! Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Sing Street was robbed. All those good songs with no Oscars to show for it. Sing Street would've gotten something if La La Land wasn't in the mix, for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 To the surprise of no one, neither Gosling or Stone will be performing at the Oscars. http://www.eonline.com/news/827035/emma-stone-and-ryan-gosling-won-t-be-performing-at-the-oscars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incarnadine Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 The list of who will be performing each of the nominated songs is out. Lin-Manuel Miranda will perform "How Far I'll Go" Justin Timberlake will perform "Can't Stop the Feeling" Sting will perform "The Empty Chair" John Legend will perform both "City of Stars" and "Audition". http://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2017/02/oscars-original-song-performances I'm fine with Legend performing City of Stars, but I think they should have gone for a female performer for Audition (I loved the speculation about Adele doing it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Gittes Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Strange to me that Gosling and Stone wouldn't even do City of Stars. It's a simple, short, quiet song, just get a piano out on stage and have them reenact the scene from the movie. Audition is another story obviously.

TalismanRing Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Quote Lin-Manuel Miranda will perform "How Far I'll Go" I think he's great but really? A power anthem meant for teenage girl? And unlike Stone and Gosling, Auli'i Cravalho can truly sing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auli'i and LMM are doing it together as a duet i guess since she's reported as doing it as well but for some reason the poster above didn't mention that. could've just been her solo but Lin has a lot of fangirls and he's a theater kid who loves the spotlight so he's there too.
