Lady Gaga, Adele, Sam Smith, Elton John, John Legend, Eminem, Jorge Drexler, Bob Dylan … are some of the artists who in the last two decades have taken the stage of the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles in the ceremony of The Oscar Awards. They did not do it to act, or better, they did not only do it to act, they went up to collect the long-awaited golden statuette.
They are part of the list of composers who have taken the Oscar to Best Original Song so far in the 21st century. A list that on April 24, when the gala is held in the Mecca of cinema, will incorporate a new member.
This year, for the first time in her career, Laura Pausini could win a statuette. I would do it with the song Seen (I do), from the movie soundtrack The life ahead of Netflix, for which he has already won the Golden Globe.
The Italian does not have it easy. Compete against great compositions like Fight for you of H.E.R for Judas and the black messiah; Hear my voice of Celeste for The Trial of the Chicag 7The; Husavik of Molly Sandén Y Will Ferrell for Eurovision song contest: the story of fire saga; Y Speak now of Leslie Odom Jr. for One night in Miami.
On the morning of April 25 it will be known which one will be part of the list, for now here are theas 20 songs that have won the Oscar in these last two decades.
