[QUOTE="Monzo, post: 419494, member: 19949"] I wonder how many nominations Diane Warren would have gotten if she had won an Oscar for one of her first six nominations, which were commercial successes. Since 2014, her comeback after a 13-year absence from nominations - by the way, she was not nominated for “Do You Feel Me” from American Gangster (2007) and “You Haven't Seen the Last of Me” from Burlesque (2010) -, she has been nominated almost every year, even though none of the songs were hits. It actually seems as if the Academy Awards have created their very own Susan Lucci with Diane Warren. As for Diane Warren's first six nominations, these are the songs she lost to: 1987: "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" lost to "(I've Had) The Time of My Life" 1996: "Because You Loved Me" lost to "You Must Love Me" 1997: "How Do I Live" lost to "My Heart Will Go On" 1998: "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" lost to "When You Believe" 1999: "Music of My Heart" lost to "You'll Be in My Heart" 2001: "There You'll Be" lost to "If I Didn't Have You" Looking back, Diane Warren could have won against one or two songs, especially Randy Newman's "If I Didn't Have You" seems long forgotten now, while many still remember "There You'll Be". And is Evita's "You Must Love Me" really the better song compared to "Because You Loved Me"? I think one reason why none of Diane Warren's hits won an Oscar is because they were featured in movies that didn't win an Oscar at all, except for Pearl Harbor for Best Sound Editing. [/QUOTE]
