Into the West (from the LOTR: The Return Of The King soundtrack words & music by Howard Shore, Fran Walsh and Annie Lennox performed by Annie Lennox)
Lay Down Your sweet and weary head Night is falling You have come to journey's end
Sleep now Dream of the ones who came before They are calling From across a distant shore
Why do you weep? What are these tears upon your face? Soon you will see All of your fears will pass away
Safe in my arms You're only sleeping
What can you see? On the horizon? Why do the white gulls call?
Across the sea A pale moon rises The ships have come To carry you home
And all will turn to silver glass A light on the water All souls pass
Hope fades Into the world of night Through shadows falling Out of memory and time
Don't say We have come now to the end White shores are calling You and I will meet again
And you'll be here in my arms Just sleeping
What can you see? On the horizon? Why do the white gulls call?
Across the sea A pale moon rises The ships have come To carry you home
And all will turn to silver glass A light on the water Grey ships pass Into the west.

but I'm rooting for "The Kiss" from "A Mighty Wind." Absolutely the most touching song ever nominated for "best song." PLUS, they actually played the song WITHIN the movie, unlike 99% of other best song nominees.

2. I haven't heard it yet |

I admit the only AA-nominated songs I've heard are Into The West and the two songs from Cold Mountain, but for some reason ITW really touched me.
