The Boss Bound For Another Oscar?

I sure hope so, since he's my god, but being completely objective, the song he wrote for The Wrestler (titled, if you can believe it...The Wrestler) is incredible (listen here, where Kris Tapley has posted it http://www.incontention.com/audio/springsteen_wrestler2.mp3 ), just incredible. I've been listening to it for almost a whole 24 hour period (currently while I write a paper on the "road movie"). The only other memorable song this year is "Down To Earth" from WALL-E, but I have to think this is the frontrunner....thoughts? Am I crazy or not?

  2. Yeah, until proven otherwise, it's definitely between this and Down To Earth. Right now, I'm in The Wrestler's corner.

  3. It has a good chance. He already has some positive history with Academy. I thought the song played perfectly in the back drop of the trailer. I'm pretty sure he'll get a nod. Who doesn't love the Boss?
