Legends and longshots highlight the music nominees for the 98th Academy Awards

As a movie buff and gamer, I always appreciate a good soundtrack! The Oscars actually have two music awards: one for Best Original Song, and another for Best Original Score. The song award showed up a few years after the very first Oscars – back in 1934, to be exact. The first song to ever win was “The Continental” – it was a huge dance number from that classic Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers movie, The Gay Divorcee. It really set the bar high!
