About this episode
Today we’re discussing the Oscar nominees for Original Song. My guests — Chris Molanphy (chart analyst and podcast host), Louis Weeks (score composer), and Tom Peyton (song writer) — offer both analysis and critique of this year’s nominees. Is there a lot of enthusiasm for the musical innovations these songs offer the listening audience? Well, no. Does it make for an interesting discussion? Yes, definitely. The 2024 Nominees for Original Song: • “El Mal” from “Emilia Pérez” • “The Journey” from “The Six Triple Eight” • “Like a Bird” from “Sing Sing” • “Mi Camino” also from “Emilia Pérez” • “Never Too Late” from “Elton John: Never Too Late”
