I will have to see Departed after hearing all the good things people have been saying about it. Beyonce is not even listed for the Listen nomination which is shocking since she was nominated for the Golden Globe. It seems like Hollywood is trying to shut Beyonce out by saying maybe you can win grammy's but it takes more to win an Oscar.
Of course I will have to watch to see if J. Hud gets the Oscar.

Only three songwriters are recogized and nominated for Best Song. Since Beyonce was listed as the fourth writer, she didn't get nominated. Matthew is probably threating the Oscar people. 
I am still  Prince didn't get nominated. So what if he won for Purple Rain? That was over 20 years ago! Can't a man win twice for songwriting?

I hadn't seen Siedah Garrett's name in some time. She's always done well with writing. I STILL lover her Jam w/ Dennis Edwards, "Don't Look Any Further." I LOVE "Love You I Do". I guess of the 3 tracks from DG, I'm pulling for that song.
ETA: Theory: Since Prince was nominated for a GG and won; to save face with Beyonce, maybe it was decided not to nominate him for the Oscar. That way, B would not be alone in the 'you forgot about me, I was nominated for a GG' category.

Beyonce shouldn't have been nominated for the Golden Globe either.

I was very happy to see Love You I Do nominated- that is a great song. It looks like it should be a great Oscar year- I am rooting for J Hud, Will Smith and Little Miss Sunshine personally

I loved her song "Everchanging Times" from the Baby Boom Soundtrack. I play it on Rhapsody all the time. It's glad to see she's getting recognition for her writing.

Co-sign! I also remember her duet with Michael Jackson -- "I Just Can't Stop Loving You" -- from back in the day, too.
