Regina Spektor "The Call"
Regina Spektor is among those eligible for a Best Original Song Oscar nomination. According to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, there are 49 songs from films in 2008 that are eligible.
“The Call” was the song that played at the end of the film The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian, which sums up the feelings that the characters were going through at the end of the adventure quite well.
There is, however, pretty stiff competition in the field. Beyonce Knowles co-wrote the song “Once in a Lifetime” for Cadillac Records this year, and Miley Cyrus co-wrote “I Thought I Lost You” for Bolt. Peter Gabriel could also earn a nomination for “Down to Earth” from Wall-E, and Bruce Springsteen for his song “The Wrestler” which he wrote for a film of the same name.
Nominations will be announced on or around January 22, 2009. Let’s keep our hopes up for that possible nomination! Hopefully the Academy loves the song as much as we do!

Regina is simply the best!
I liked The Call better than any of those songs! (but some of them were good too…)
Regina has to win!! The Call was great & is my favourite Prince Caspian song!!
Oh! So much to look forward to.. I hope it wins! Great song, everyone I know that has heard it LOVES it. Even my parents.
Oh my word! This is so cool! The song was amazing and SO symbolic! I hope that she wins!
Yay! The song gave me goosepimples when I was in the theater. Her beautiful voice and the lyrics make this song one of my favorites! I hope she wins!
Her song definitely deserves to win. I absolutely love the lyrics!
I hope Regina wins! I love The Call…I’ve played it 1394 times, lol. I hope Regina does a song for the next Narnia movie (hopefully there will be one!!!) Fingers crossed!
‘jai ho’ is catchy for an Indian song but ‘The Call’ was still better. Could’ve warranted a nomination although I doubt the academy takes this category too seriously.
Me and my friend Hannah Fata love the song the call. And we love narnia endfact we are starting to make our own narnia vidio not tring to copy the narnians but we just love the movie so much.And we can not wate for C.S. Lewis to come out. ,Brianna Maddox
