The
Academy
of
Motion
Pictures
Arts
and
Sciences
have
announced
the
list
of
the
41
best
songs
scored
in
Hollywood
ventures
this
year.
According
to
reports,
like
the
category
of
the
best
special
effects
in
a
movie,
this
list
too
will
be
shortened
and
cut
down
before
the
final
nominations
are
announced
on
the
25th
of
next
month.
The
Oscars
are
scheduled
to
go
on
stage
on
the
27th
of
February
next
year.
Reports
from
Hollywood
suggest
that
the
selected
songs
will
be
played
before
the
voting
panel
of
the
Music
Branch
of
the
Oscars
in
Los
Angeles
on
the
6th
of
January,
and
it
is
this
panel,
which
will
round
up
on
the
best
songs
to
be
featured
in
the
final
Oscar
nominations.
To
succeed
to
the
final
stage
of
the
Oscar
nominations,
a
song
will
have
to
show
good
music
and
lyrics
and
both
will
have
to
be
original
and
relevant
to
the
situation
in
which
it
is
used
in
the
film.
The
list,
which
has
been
announced
by
the
Academy
of
Motion
Pictures
Arts
and
Sciences
places
three
songs
from
the
film
Burlesque
among
the
top
five
positions
in
the
Best
Original
Song
category.
Meanwhile,
the
Kodak
Theatre
in
Hollywood
is
already
making
the
necessary
preparations
to
host
the
83rd
edition
of
the
most
prestigious
movie
award
event
in
the
world.
This
year,
Hollywood
actors
Anne
Hathaway
and
James
Franco
will
be
the
hosts
for
the
Oscar
evening.
