This weekend the Oscar for Best Original Song will be handed out to either: "Happy" from Despicable Me 2, "Let It Go" from Frozen, "The Moon Song" from Her, or "Ordinary Love" from Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom.

We'll talk about the songs nominated this year, play them all for you, and discuss what we would pick as the winner. Check out the previous winners and nominees and let us know what songs you think were robbed and what was the greatest song written for a movie.

Congrats to Ashley, from Gardener Builders! We loved Ashley's top 10 of why The Current needed to visit her in her office full of email conversations about music played on the Current and photos of their company hanging out. Thanks Ashley, we'll see you all in a bit with the band Carroll and coffee and treats from JJ's Coffee and Wine Bistro.
