Indian is not a language, and the song Jai Ho, is written in four different languages. Here is what languages Jai Ho, is written in: The lyrics to "Jai Ho" were written by Gulzar and are a combination of Hindi, Urdu and Punjabi. Lyrics in Spanish are also included in the song "to go along with his [Rahman] Latin American touch of music". According to the India-EU Film Initiative, this inclusion "really makes the song quite unique and international". Of the three singers credited, Sukhwinder Singh is the principal vocalist. Vijay Prakash sang the portion with the words "Jai Ho", which takes a high pitch at numerous junctures of the song. Mahalakshmi Iyer sang the Hindi words between the "Jai Ho" chants and the portions of the verses not sung by Singh. Tanvi Shah sang and wrote the song's Spanish words.

I cringed when they said that.

"My Heart will go on" Fits the Titanic Perfectly and it gives me Goosebumps and puts tries in my eyes and Timeless!

My favorite fact about My Heart Will Go On, was that when they pitched the idea of the song to Celine, she was apprehensive about singing it at first. She said it was intimidating to be the only song with lyrics in the entire main soundtrack of such an enormous film. Her husband eventually convinced her, so she recorded the demo. Before she recorded, they showed her the movie, and had her record the song directly after watching it. She said in an interview once, years ago, that she remembers walking into the studio to record, still crying, and recorded it in one take. ICON. (I'm sure it was probably just a portion of it just to get an idea as to the mood and nature of the film - though I suppose it may have been the full film)

Everyone in the theater was enthralled by it. The only tike I've ever been to a movie at a theater and it being packed and no one making a sound. It was beyond amazing to experience this first hand

"Over the Rainbow" works because it is a young girl's "daydream" song. Dancers and flashy effects would only have spoiled it. The purity of the setting - a young girl's highly constrained, rural (and therefore dull) environment is the PERFECT place to imaging that girl singing about escaping. When the studio wanted to bump the song, the people who stopped them did film history the biggest favor ever done.

Out of these songs my favorites were My Heart Will Go On, When You Wish Upon A Star, Over The Rainbow and…probably Take My Breath Away

For a song to qualify for an Oscar, it has to be an original song composed specifically for the film in which it appears. "I Will Always Love You" was written and recorded by Dolly Parton in 1973. Therefore, it did not qualify for the Oscar since Whitney Houston's recording was a cover version. Case in point: None of the songs in "Evita" (1996) qualified for an Oscar because they were all old material from the various stage productions. Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice composed a new song for the movie version, "You Must Love Me," so the song would be eligible for a qualifying "Best Song" award. "You Must Love Me" won the Oscar that year for "Best Original Song."

The Way We Were. Hands down.

I remembered seeing the music video of My Heart Will Go On as a kid on MTV for the very first time and I just cried so hard. I've been a fan of Celine, and watched the film more than 30x

Can You Feel the Love Tonight My Heart Will Go On Beauty And The Beast When You Wish Upon a Star (I've had) The Time of My Life Take My Breath Away What a Feeling The Way We Were Let It Go ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Love it 😍

They are all so beautiful, thank you musicians, writers and all for giving us these beautiful songs to enjoy.

My all time favorite is Somewhere Over The Rainbow,. I have it in writing to my kids, I want that song as well as My Heart Will Go On played at my funeral.

The best ones were The Way We Were, Let It Go, Somewhere over the Rainbow, When You Wish Upon a Star, Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head, Moon River, A Whole New World.

Wow!! I'm an old softie...RAINDROPS KEEP FALLING ON MY HEAD ❤

There’s not a world where Over the Rainbow was not going to be #1! Add to it that it is sung by one of the greatest singers to ever grace this earth!

Celine Dion perfectly could release a complete album only with all Movie songs that she has singing in her entire career!!! She is so impressive!!!

Into the West and Streets of Philidelphia are both amazing songs and stop me in my tracks when I hear them. They are both so understated and yet fit their movie purpose perfectly. Also 8 Mile is so iconic.

Not the best choices. Que Sera, Sera is not just a great song, but it played an important part in one of the greatest movies of all time. A Whole New World is the best Disney song. Fame was a massive hit, too. At least a third of your list, especially the new ones, are songs that nobody remembered 5-10 years after they were released.

I would include in this list also "Singin' In The Rain" from the classic self-titled film, but... wait! It wasn't even nominated at the Oscars 😪

singin' in the rain is a classic

The song was over 20 years old when the movie was made, so it wasn't eligible.

@@HJohnson7567 I didn't know this. I thought it is an original song made specially for Singin' In Th Rain (OST)

A bit of trivia wrt Moon River. When the film was screened for the producers/big wigs, one of them demanded that the song and Hepburn’s performance be removed because (paraphrasing) ‘the song was awful, the performance sucked and and no one would like it.’ Luckily the director disagreed and insisted that the scene and song remain…and the rest is history. 😁

White Christmas, High Noon, Say You Say Me, Let the River Run, You Must Love Me

“Let It Go” is still a great song and millions of Frozen fans love it for nearly 10 years.

let it go

As music/movie lovers, good work, MsMojo.

I was 9 y/o in '56---------heading to 10 in September-------when, I believe it was ABC , though don't quote me that------when aBC brought " The Wizard Of Oz" to television. It was, to that moment in time, THE most widely viewed TV moment, ever. And I so remember Mom just sobbing her way through " Over The Rainbow " , as she had just turned 20 y/o, when she 1st saw the film. I loved the film, especially Ray Bolger is The Scarecrow. What a memory. --------MJL, 76 y/o

im biased cuz its my favorite but my heart will go on should be number 1

Most awesome video!!! 😊 Thanks for sharing 😊

For the record, 🎶 This is Me 🎶 from the Greatest Showman, should have gotten the Oscar. And yes, I'm still salty about it not winning. P.S. I remember, when the writers for the Coco walked on stage, 🎶This is Me🎶 talk about awkward. 🤣

What A Feeling and Take My Breath Away should’ve been top 10, easily!

Lists like this are subjective but always fun. I enjoyed this alot.

"It's A Hard Life For A Pimp" from "Hustle & Flow" was a great suprise win. Three 6 Mafia with Taraji P Henson performing at the Oscar's was great.

Was it the winner, when the academy robbed Dolly Parton ("Travelin Thru") again?

I don’t think the song “ my heart will go on” Would have been an Oscar winner if anybody but Celine Dion had sung it!! Her voice made that song great!!

With due respect to the talent and originality of the contributions of later generations-- such as “It’s Hard Out Here For a Pimp”--many of us 50’s babies naturally gravitate to the more timeless classics. Thanks for your coverage of the likes of “Evergreen”, “My Heart Will Go On”, and “Over the Rainbow.” As always, you do a great job with your videos.

Streets of Philadelphia is a beautiful piece of work. Surely should be much higher here.

Pretty good list. I was getting worried at first that there would be no classics but heartened to see that it was just because most of them were closer to the top of the list, hehe. While I liked Springsteen's Streets of Philadelphia song, I thought the superior one was Neil Young's "Philadelphia". But they're both great songs to a great movie so I'm glad one of them won.

Wickedly, talented. Poor John Travolta will never live that down.

"Theme From Shaft" should be on this list - anyone agree? It was far ahead of its time.

This! It was honestly a game changer. It had a least as big, if not a bigger impact than 'Lose Yourself'. I remember watching it live. Electric!

I agree. Considering, who put the list together, I'm not surprised it didn't make the list.

Indeed!

Beautifully done…thank you

Somewhere Over the Rainbow - Wizard of Oz

As long as "Over the Rainbow" is No. 1, after that it doesn't matter, except "Under the Sea" desereved an Oscar for being clever and fun.

Also, A Whole New World.

I knew that Lion King and Beuty and the Beast Will be on this top, they're two of My favorite movies of My childhood (specially The lion King) happy wednesday Ms Mojo, and God bless You. Take care and see You soon, greetings from Colombia.

just wanna point out with your Slumdog Millionaire part: India has probably well over 300 different languages, and unlike countries like France, Spain, Portuguese and Russian, etc, India does not have a language that is named after the country. The lyrics are written in a mix of Hindi, Urdu and Punjabi.

It's inconceivable that they wanted to cut "Somewhere Over the Rainbow".

My number one is definitely Into the West. I still can't get enough of this song.

I loved the selection but I think you forgot "White Christmas" from "Holiday Inn" because that song among other of this list transcended their original movie and became an staple from the Holiday's Song

I was going to write that. I can't take a list seriously that leaves out that song and, IMO, should have been No. 1 on the list. There isn't a celebrator of Christmas that does not know and sing that song. And to me, that's what makes a song one of the best. Some of the songs on this list will not be remembered or sung 50 years from now but White Christmas will be. They really missed the mark on this one. And 'As Time Goes By' should have been No. 2.

@paulmorris9605

exactly and as such this list and Ms Mojo lacks a lot of credibility ; White Christmas should be 1st

Two I strongly think should've been on the list were "I Dreamed A Dream" (i know it's from Broadway but there have been at least 2 movie adaptations of it) and "As Time Goes By" from Casablanca.

This is a list of Oscar winners. If the song didn't win the Oscar it doesn't qualify for the list.

I really love all these songs. ❤

Hands down, Streets of Philadelphia - relevant and apropos concerning an ongoing situation that affects/affected numerous patients, relatives, friends, lovers, children, strangers and healthcare providers on so many levels globally.

My favourite is Take My Breath Away by Berlin followed by Streisand and Kristofferson in a Star is Born.

Flashdance .. What A Feeling at number 20??? Well once AGAIN our good friends at Mojo got it WRONG! That song should’ve been in the top 3

Somewhere Over the Rainbow stuns me every time I hear it. It’s so quietly powerful and for Judy Garland to have had that kind of vocal precision, control, and pitch at that age is astonishing.

Nice list😊

My favorite Oscar Winning movie songs are MY Heart will Go on from Titantic, Let it go from Frozen, Remember me from Coco and We Belong together from Toy Story 3
