Image Group LA/ABCThe nominations for the 2017 Oscars will be revealed Tuesday morning at 8:18 a.m. ET. For the Best Original Song category, tracks written or co-written by Twenty One Pilots, Iggy Pop and Trent Reznor are among the 91 eligible nominees.
In order to be eligible, songs have to include original words and music specifically written for the movie, and a "clearly audible, intelligible, substantive rendition of both lyric and melody" has to be used either during the film, or as the first song you hear over the end credits. That means Twenty One Pilots' "Heathens," from Suicide Squad; Iggy Pop's "Gold," from Gold; and Reznor and Atticus Ross' "A Minute to Breathe," from Before the Flood are all possible nominees.
Other Oscar eligible songs Imagine Dragon's "Levitate," from Passengers; Florence + the Machine's "Wish that You Were Here," from Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children; and The Lumineers' "Nobody Knows," from Pete's Dragon.
Pop's "Gold," which he co-wrote with Brian "Danger Mouse" Burton and the Gold film's director and composer, was already nominated for Best Original Song -- Motion Picture at this year's Golden Globes, but it lost out to "City of Stars" from La La Land.
You can watch the 2017 Oscars nominees be revealed live online via Oscars.org. The awards themselves will air February 26 on ABC.
